Breathtaking projections onto Durham Cathedral at Lumiere Durham this weekend. Alas, lots of crowds, rain and tired children meant a pause in Costa before heading back to the car.

On the way back, however, we stood on a bridge and watched the rain reflection through a light projection. It wasn't part of the instillation as such - and it was perfection. A trance like illumination of the freshness and movement of the weather for us to enjoy.

There's the moments we expect to enjoy - and there's the moments we don't expect to enjoy when we have the space, the time and the need to submerge ourselves in them.

Quick self-nourishing breathwork session before the school run? Don't mind if I do!

I feel so grateful and fortunate to have a work space which not only facilitates my clients into comfort and relaxation - it does the same for me!

Hurrah for deep and welcome relaxing pauses in the day to day :-).

When I first began teaching hypnobirthing with pregnant clients, I would say at least 75% had sought out the birth preparation route they had as a result of fear, uncertainty, past experiences or stories of past experiences they had heard (and run through their own system to create the fear response).

Many thing we looked at in the birth prep course did really well to settle these fears (knowledge, tracks, exercises, empowerment, choice etc...).

None of the course really had very strong ability to collapse previous experiences which still created the rear response in my client. In these cases, I would take a different approach. By supporting my client to reframe, restructure and resolve feelings around previous experiences, our clients are able to create an internal environment and secure foundation upon which they can go on to build and construct their new understandings, reframes of birth, resources, beliefs and intuitions. It was essential for the entire birth preparation process.

Becoming a 3-Step Rewind practitioner will equip you with the skills to do just this.
Learn how to support your clients to find greater ease with difficult fertility or prei-natal experiences.

Live courses with Ruth which include supervised practise. Additionally, throughout and beyond your training, you have access to ongoing training and supervision.

I have taken Fridays off for a month now - and I’m this time I have rested, grown things, done things I enjoy and baked.

Baking these healthy cookies for the family is something I look forward to each week. It really is the accumulation of little things that make a difference 😁.

This is a lesser known and exceptionally useful use for Rewind trained practitioners. In fact, it was as the NLP 'Fast Phobia Cure' (yep, I'm not keen on the name either) during my training when I first not only facilitated and experienced the use of this - and also cured my lifelong wasp phobia.

I honestly hadn't believed it was going to work - and it did.

Rewind is usually thought about in terms of releasing peri-natal trauma in the birth world - however, it's also a gem which can transform your clients experience if they have, for instance, a needle phobia or vomiting phobia.

We cover it's use for phobias in the course and, if this sounds intriguing to you, get in touch for a chat or have a further look at booking onto a practitioner course either next month or in the new year.

I’m openly admitting I’ve let the self nourishment slide recently. Life has been challenging of late. No need to berate myself for it - that’s counterproductive. Im restarting slow. Connecting with good friends, and a sweltering detoxifying hug of a sauna. Small@things to begin. More intention for increase in yoga, running, breathwork and cold water therapy to come.

For now, one step at a time and everything in its own and at the right time.

I feel so fortunate and full of gratitude to have this as the back yard just beyond my back yard.

As birth professionals, so many of our clients find us as a result of wanting - no - needing to do things differently this time. It's sadly a reality of our experience as birth professionals. once people have faced the reality of struggled with navigating through a system they weren't prepared for, the desire to do everything to make changes this time can be immense.

So how do we facilitate our clients to prepare for a different experience with all the skills, wisdom, knowledge and capacity for deep support you already have, yet may be sensing that their previous experience could be preventing them from fully accessing all the resources (the ones you're providing and their innate birthing resources too)?

3-Step Rewind is a very simple facilitation process which can support your clients to re-process their previous experience in a way which means they collapse any triggers around it and are more able to fully engage with preparing for a different experience this time, with your support.

In the days when I taught hypnobirthing, I often described it as a bespoke fear release. And the grear news is it can also be used for fears and phobias with your clients too (think blood, hospital, needles, vomiting tokophobia).

3-Step Rewind is a useful tool which can make sure your clients can absorb ALL of the support you offer them as they prepare for birth.

When I moved my work space to , Chopwell (my home village) back in July last year, I initially only intended it to be an admin space, with hypnotherapy sessions happening either online or in the more populated location of nearby Newcastle.

Very quickly, however, I discovered that not only are people willing to travel further to access the sessions which can make such significantly useful difference to them - so as well as providing sessions in town and online, I decided to begin to facilitate sessions and welcome clients here too.

My clients enjoy the drive out into the countryside (there's something transformative about a journey in and of itself). They tell me how comfortable they feel in this space, how much they love the view from the window (I have MANY ideas gazing out this window at this view) and how nourished and supported they feel in this space.

If you would like to find out how hypnotherapy can support you move away from something you no longer need and towards the future you want, need, desire and deserve, book a 15 minute discovery call with me below:

You know those times when you want to really share something that you recently experienced with others because it was simply so breathtakingly special? And then you stop, because you simply cannot find the words to convey all of its specialness and meaning - so you don't.

Well, I was fortunate enough to be a part of (and I felt FULLY a part of) this gorgeous gathering of birthkeepers at the weekend. It was restorative, connective and may other things that I simply don't have words for. There was Reiki, yoga, dance, relaxation.

I wish for everyone to find the kind of connection (with self and/or others) that I experienced this weekend - because we're human, and that's one of our MOST natural states.

Thank you Natal the Healing Birth Doula

I'd like you to meet Gillian. She's my yoga therapist (not just mine - many peoples, and she could be yours too...).

Gillian and I met a few years on a yoga retreat. As I looked around at all these new faces on the day 1 induction, I wasn't sure if I felt I belonged there... and then a few minutes late in walks Gillian. Walks is such a reductionary word here - you see Gillians marvellous energy goes before her. She'a the kind of person where you feel her presence before you even see her in the space. I clocked her and felt 'I like her - we're going to get on. Gillian is my kind of person!' - and I was so very right.

2 years on and it's Gillian I have chosen (or has a universe chosen her for me... who knows) to regularly keep me in the best place to live my best life. And she facilitates me to do this is a way which speaks so clearly for me - through the body (after all - the body really is where we hold our stuff!).

So Gillian, this is a shout out to you. For being a wise, kind, gentle, intuitive and supportive human being who knows exactly what space to hold, and how to hold it for others. Thank you!

30/06/2023

In my early 20's, before I even owned a mobile phone, I was out for a wonderful day of escape exploring rural Northumberland with my boyfriend at the time. It was a day where we could forget about work, about the humdrum of life, about anything else but what was important for us right now - simply spending time in each others company.

He had recently opted into mobile phone ownership - the old Nokia kind with the little green screen where you had to get a repetitive strain injury in the fingers to simply type a text.

During this countryside exploration and escape his phone rang - it was work. Now bear in mind that answerting phones which weren't plugged in or sat at a desk or under the stairs was home. If you weren't hom, you weren't home. You simply missed the call and the person left a message or called back later.

As he answered this work call I felt a discomfort inside. What was this feeling? Why was my reaction so strong? It felt like a warm cocooning velvet cloak of our time and curious exploration had been pulled off by the tinny sound of a digital tune played badly.

This was my first experience of this kind of technology pulling me out of the beautiful present and into a not so useful state.

How little I knew then about just how much us humans would soon begin to live more inside our phones and less in the presence of the present.

A few weeks ago swept along with technology, algorhythms and all the ways social media hypnotises us, and I just wanted to put it down - but the lure of its bright colourful promise of escape kept luring me in. I don't want that for me - and I don't want that for my family either. Enough! Ironically Facebook deliverered something usefully timely...
..a link instructing me how to turn my phone screen to black and white. I did it, I've done it for a few days now and the contrast is stark!

When working with NLP & hypnotherapy, we sometimes use shifts like this (ie: turning a visually remembered difficult memory to black and white can change the structure of the way the memory is held and therefore make it feel more comfortable to recall or process it completely).

turns out the emotional charge or attachment is removed when I turn my iphone screen to black and white.

My phone now bores me.

I use it only for the functional things.

I'm reclaiming my time, sense of wonderment and presence not only within my life as an individual, but also as a family too. And it feels wonderful!

So, if you too are fed up of being a slave t your phone, have a go for yourself and notice the difference for you.

Our Story

Ruth’s interest in hypnotherapy was first piqued when she completed her NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) Practitioner training in 2011. At around the same time, she also made some deeply profound personal life changes using NLP & hypnosis, and it was this specific experience which inspired her to master these techniques further.

She pushed forward in her training goals and achieved her Clinical Hypnotherapy and Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapy Diplomas. More recently,she has also undertaken EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), EMI (Eye Movement Integration) and Hypnobirthing Practitioner training to further inform her work.

Ruth specialises in supporting fertility and working with women throughout pregnancy, birth and beyond. However, she also enjoys the variety involved in working with a broad range of issues for which hypnosis has been proved to be effective.

Ruth is committed to continual learning and skills development and is a registered & accredited practitioner with the General Hypnotherapy Register.
