What would happen if you didn’t?……

This is one of the key wake up questions in hypnotherapy.

It’s so easy to have dreams which just stay as that: dreams.

Our primitive emotional minds hate change.

They are constantly there in the background.

- Protesting
- Challenging
- Taunting

Why do we want things different? We’re comfortable here. We’re safe here. We’ve always done this and we’ve survived.

Survival (and reproduction) is all that the PEM is interested in.

It’s not concerned about your happiness, your feelings of self fulfilment.

Only that you’re going to be around long enough to reproduce and to keep the species going.

So it’s up to us to take charge, and quieten that anxious voice.

We can do this through the rational part of our brains, overriding the small safe part of us.

Sometimes it takes small steps, and at other times big ones. But as long as the goal is firmly set, you can get there.

Then your dreams can become reality.

And not a source of regret that you never did…..

Public speaking

Is a powerful skill.

The rewards are prolific

Whether you are addressing a large crowd an intimate seminar or one-to-one

Speaking with clarity and focus enhances self confidence in spades
——————————-
5 key practical points:

- Get the tech right (and someone else to care of it)

- Be calm, relaxed and upright (the audience are on your side, to be informed and entertained. If you’re tense and nervous, they’ll sense it)

- Know your material (if you were giving directions to your house you wouldn’t need notes)

- Deliver it with passion and a bit of humour (forgetting about yourself and how you look)

- Leave them wanting more (too short better than too long)

If you have a real phobia about it, hypnotherapy can remove those blocks at speed.

This is a fact:

Other people assume you are MUCH more self confident

Than you feel yourself to be.

So this means

The outside of you is already ready for the inside of you to catch up.

All you have to do is expand into it.

Confidence doesn’t mean

- being bigheaded
- talking too much
- being loud and noisy

Suggesting to clients that self-confidence is an important key to solving their problem is sometimes met with resistance.

It conjures up:

- boot camps
- fake till you make it
- paint balling weekends

And other activities which have absolutely nothing to do with your inner self confidence.

They seek instead to batter you into being someone else.

From the moment we can stand and run about as children, we have an overwhelming desire to express ourselves by using it.

Look at this photo: the three children are jumping for joy at being alive, and what they can do with their young bodies.

So what happens on the way to growing up?

Society sets limits, so we can all function and survive together. Our parents and teachers are well meaning agents. Our siblings and peers make their contribution.

We take on ideas about ourselves, influenced by all of our experiences, good and bad.

But the important thing to remember is that childlike inner self-confidence is still alive. And hypnotherapy can help you rediscover it and polish it up.

So you can find:

- clarity
- focus
- inner peace
- freedom
- joy

Acknowledging and being happy with what makes you unique and special. Being happy in your skin.

And from that quiet calm place, we go on to find the solution to your problem.

When the time has come to say goodbye to......

Your therapist.

Some backwards facing psychotherapy can last a long time.

Possibly several years.

During that time inevitably a rapport builds. The process is necessarily intimate and confidential. And certainly habitual.

But how to know when you're done? Will the therapist keep saying:

"Same time next week?

Even though a part of you wants to quit. Thinks you've got as far as you can.

But doesn't know how to say "No, I think I'm all right now thank you"

________________

This is not a problem with solution focused hypnotherapy, because fewer sessions are usually required.

The process is facing towards the solution, slightly brisk but kind, and results-focused.

Simple phobias usually only need 4 sessions.

And for more complex problems:

I offer a 6 session pack with a goal to achieve. Even if it's not completely fixed in 6 sessions, the likelihood is that we're on our way.

And during the process you will learn how to say no with quiet confidence.

So you can easily say it to your therapist too!

Last Saturday at Rose Bakery in Dover Street Market there was a special event. The attendees were not the usual type of Comme des Garçons customer, but children.

Children had inspired the latest book by Rose Carrarini including notably cooking with her own grandchildren over Zoom during lockdown.

During periods of stress, encouraging our senses of taste, smell and touch, can produce a real feeling of calm. Baking in particular involves an almost magical alchemy.

Getting hands stuck in to the tactile messiness of dough diverts those eternal chatty thoughts from our minds, giving our brains a rest.

When I was involved in setting up cafés in art galleries, the one non negotiable element was the best quality home-made cake. After exercising all that brain power appreciating great works of art, there was nothing to match its restorative qualities.

I took away a book from the afternoon tea, trying to think of a friend with children. However, the recipes are so delicious (and easy), for the moment it will stop with me.

Back pain

Can take you over completely.

It’s the central part of our bodies after all. Our spine houses the central nervous system.

Pain serves its purpose when something is wrong.

e.g. If we touch something too hot, the pain in our fingers tells us to quickly remove them.

The our primitive mind is doing its job. By reacting fast to avoid unnecessary damage.

But when medical reasons have been ruled out it isn't useful.

Most of us have an Achilles Heel where pain often manifests itself. When we are stressed or overtired.

It serves no useful purpose. But it doesn't mean it's any less real for that.
___________________________________

Solution focused hypnotherapy helps through its positive, forward facing approach

Chronic pain is modulated by hormones.

When you're feeling good, relaxed and optimistic, hormones such as serotonin, dopamine and oxytocin are released.

They serve to dampen the pain intensity or erase it altogether.
___________________________

I have multiple examples of this in my practice:

- After a second session a stressed GP client asked me "where's my back pain gone"? (He was there for a phobia, not back pain at all!)

- After three sessions with an artist client who 𝘄𝗮𝘀 here for back pain, it never got mentioned again.

- After four sessions with a client suffering from migraine, her episodes had diminished significantly

The list goes on. And of course the need for painkillers dimishes too.
