Latest blog post....all how about we can understand emotions linked with our threat systems...and what can help!

Hi! Here's a video I made running through one of the many exercises I use frequently in therapy. It's called the Healing Beam of Light (and also known as the Light Stream) and can be really useful for anxiety, relaxation and helping to soften any uncomfortable sensation, including pain. Hope you like it!

I wonder if many of us can relate to having that little voice on our shoulder that points out what we’ve done wrong…reminds us not to get “too big for our boots” if we feel proud of something…whispers that those people don’t really like us….calls us a “stupid idiot” (and worse)… ...

Breathing. Such a simple thing, yes? Something we all do, every day, all day. But how much notice do we take of it? Often not much, not until we feel as if we can’t catch our breath or when we start to panic. Yet using the breath is one of the most powerful tools we can have in our armoury to he
