I am definitely one of those people who did not start off calm and relaxed.

I learned the hard way!

At 26, I was so debilitated by anxiety that I barely left my house in 6 months and had to give up my job.

I always knew, somehow, even on my darkest days that a greater strength awaited me on the other side of what I was going through and that was so true.

I haven’t been finding it easy to relax as much as normal this last week with all the unsettling events and barbaric treatment of innocent people in Ukraine and I know many others are feeling the same.

I am blown away by the resilience of the Ukrainian people; their strength, their passion and their belief in their country.

For these amazing people undergoing this horrific suffering at the moment, I focus the power of all of my mental energy on their resilience, the recovery of their country and the great things which must await Ukraine on the other side of this tragedy.

A quote I love and was reminded of recently in a post by the amazing Dr David Hamilton whose words always fill me with peace and hope.

Even if we feel we can do nothing, we can look inside ourselves nd heal any of our own negative nd send the ripples of that change out to the rest of the universe to which we are all connected ❤️🤞🇺🇦🤝

What is trauma?

We often think that trauma only arises after a really tragic event, like a car accident, an assault, a difficult birth etc

Well those experiences certainly can and do cause trauma, but….

Trauma can also be caused by something as simple as:

⚡️someone taking a toy from you when you were little;

⚡️words that you heard someone say to you or about you;

⚡️something you saw that didn’t seem right!

The good news is that in many cases, we can deal with trauma therapeutically in a relatively short space of time without the need to share the details of the experience if you would prefer not to.

Do give me a call if you would like to discuss 07578 591577

Love it when I hear from my clients after we have finished our work together. I especially love it when I hear about a wonderful Hypnobirthing experience and even more so when the techniques have helped a mummy through a tricky birth.

I offer private hypnobirthing classes in the comfort of your own home or in my Purton clinic, so if you have a 2022 due date, give me a call to find out more xx

Dads, Dads, Dads - Dads matter and Dads struggle and most of the time, don’t ask for help. If you’re a new Dad and you’re finding it hard or experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD type symptoms, I can help you and have helped many others like you. You aren’t alone.

https://www.sciencefocus.com/news/postnatal-depression-in-dads-the-science-underlining-this-overlooked-condition/

Nearly one in four new fathers suffer from anxiety and depression in the first year following their children's birth. Should we be doing more to help them?

13/01/2022

If you’re a new Dad and you’re finding it harder than you thought, you’re not alone. It is very common for Dads to experience mental ill health and it can be hard to know where to go for help. I have lots of experience in this field so if you’re feeling like there’s nowhere to turn and you need some support, get in touch to discuss how I can help.

An important reminder of how much we need to look after each other. Men may find it harder to ask for help and may feel pressure to ‘man up’!! We should really never use such a phrase. Everyone has an equal right to support,mental health doesn’t discriminate by gender!

On International Men's Day we recognise and celebrate the positive contributions of men and boys in our society.

We also take time to recognise those issues which disproportionately affect men's wellbeing, not least the high rate of male su***de, and homelessness. Which we must lead on as a party and alliance.

Also want to recognise all our fantastic men on council, fellow members and also my partner and children who support me to support you all 💛

⭐️⭐️Menopause Mindset⭐️⭐️

🦉 Where are you on your menopause journey?

🦉Have you taken time to prepare for it?

✅ Physical and mental well-being are key to managing menopause symptoms. You may be thinking about exercise and diet but are you thinking about mental preparation?

🧠 A check in on your mindset as you enter Peri-menopause can also make a very big difference. It’s a time of massive change so working on mindset and looking at how a healthy mind can positively influence those hormonal fluctuations is well worth it.

Some pre-Christmas availability, contact me for more details x

🎄⭐️ Gift Vouchers ⭐️🎄

I am happy to sell gift vouchers if you would like to purchase hypnotherapy or hypnobirthing sessions on behalf of a friend or family member.

I do ask, however, that you discuss this with the recipient first to check that they are onboard with the idea.

Change cannot be forced on others so no matter how much you want someone to change, they can only do it when THEY are ready not when YOU want them to be.

Many thanks x

🍂🍂What a beautiful Autumn morning!🍂🍂

We often think of January as the time to make positive changes with New Year’s resolutions and positive intentions but, in fact, January is probably the worst time of year to do this……👎

Why, I hear you say????

Our subconscious mind will only allow us to make changes easily, when we are feeling calm, safe and generally positive 😎

In January, we are feeling the post Christmas blues, we’re in the depths of Winter and dark mornings and nights, we feel pressured into making the coming year our best yet, the list goes on……❄️

In November, nature is changing around us, looking beautiful and preparing for new life as the old leaves drop. It’s nature’s time to start preparing for change, for re-birth, so why not make your changes now and step into January already sorted and enjoy a stress free start to the year? 🌈

Contact me to find out how we can work together to help you find a healthier mind and a happier life x
