Do you suffer from low self esteem?
We all have an internal representation of ourselves. This internal representation lets us know where our place is in society, what is acceptable to us, what we deserve (and what we don’t), what we are capable of and if we are deserving of love. People who are happy and enjoying life have a good internal representation of themselves but people with low self esteem or are carrying out destructive behaviours have a bad one.
This internal representation is formed in childhood and carried through into adulthood. If we experience trauma as a child or bought up around abusive or critical parents our perceptions of ourselves and life negatively affect our beliefs and future expectations.
As adults we may recognise these beliefs to be wrong but however hard we try we just cannot rid ourselves of them. This internal representation is buried within the subconscious mind and is very difficult to address and change consciously. This is why talking therapies like counselling, psychotherapy and CBT don’t always get the desired results. Hypnosis allows you to work within the subconscious mind so it’s pretty effective in working with unhelpful beliefs and bad habits.
If you recognise that you are self sabotaging, phobic, unable to stop harmful habits or at a point where talking therapy isn’t moving you forward maybe it’s time to look at hypnotherapy.

I have also written a book called How to get over the start line that is available on my website or on Amazon that explains why we do what we do and feel the way we feel.
