🧡💫🤍 Feeling stuck, overwhelmed or just not quite yourself? 💭

Sometimes all you need is a safe space to pause, reflect, and reset - and that’s exactly what hypnotherapy offers.

I offer in person and online appointments and I’d love to work with you 🧡

🧡 My next in person appointment is on Friday 16th January at 11:00 am.

I'll be opening up more slots starting in February. And look out for my Peaceful Pause Sanctuary Sessions 🧡

Whether it’s anxiety, unwanted habits, low confidence or just needing to feel more like you again - you don’t have to go through it alone 🧡💫🤍

If this post speaks to you, take it as your sign to reach out. You are so worthy of feeling better 🧡💫🤍

Sometimes life nudges us in ways we didn’t ask for 🧡💫🤍

Challenges can feel heavy, uncomfortable, even overwhelming … and yet, within them, something new is gently unfolding ...

A new strength 💪
A new perspective 🧐
A deeper trust in yourself 🤍

You don’t have to rush the process or “stay positive” all the time.
Growth happens simply by showing up, one breath at a time 🧡💫🤍

💫 Hypnotherapy offers a calm, supportive space to process challenges, release what’s weighing you down and reconnect with your inner strength.

If this resonates and you’d like some gentle support, feel free to get in touch - my inbox is always open 🧡💫🤍

🌍 World Hypnotism Day - 4th January 2026 🌍

Hypnosis isn’t about losing control, being “put under” or clucking like a chicken on stage 💫

Real hypnotherapy is actually a natural, focused state of awareness ... the kind you drift into when you’re absorbed in a book, daydreaming, or just about to fall asleep.

World Hypnotism Day is about gently clearing up the myths and sharing what hypnosis really is 🧡

🤍 You’re always aware.
🤍 You can’t be made to do anything against your values.
🤍 You remain in control the whole time.
🤍 It’s a collaboration, not something done to you.

🧡 When used therapeutically, hypnosis can help people:

• calm an anxious mind

• change unhelpful habits

• feel more confident and at ease

• gently break old patterns that no longer serve them

I love this work because it helps people reconnect with their own inner resources - the answers are already there 🤍

✨ If any of this has sparked curiosity, you’re very welcome to get in touch and ask questions - sometimes a simple conversation is the first step 💫🧡💫🤍

Ahh, that magical period between Christmas and New Year … when nobody knows what day it is, pyjamas are totally acceptable attire, leftovers are calling and the world seems to slow down just enough to breathe 🧡

It’s the perfect time to pause, reflect on 2025 and maybe give yourself a tiny cheer for all you've survived – the highs, the challenges, the changes. And yes, it’s also totally okay to eat Christmas trifle for breakfast while you do it 🍨✨

Here’s to gentle reflection, laughter and small steps towards the year ahead 🧡

✨ If you’d like to start 2026 feeling a little lighter, you can message me now to book your spot – I’d love to help you 🧡

As 2025 draws to a close, it’s natural to think about new beginnings - fresh starts, letting go of what no longer serves you, and stepping into 2026 with a little more clarity and calm 💫

Hypnotherapy can support this process by helping you work with the subconscious patterns that keep stress, anxiety, fears, overthinking or unwanted habits in place. It’s not about forcing change, but gently calming the nervous system, creating new responses, and helping you feel more in control and aligned.

Change doesn’t need to be dramatic or overwhelming. Sometimes the most powerful shifts happen quietly, with small steps and compassionate intention.

If you’ve been thinking about support for anxiety, fears, or habits you’d like to release in the new year, now can be a lovely time to plan ahead. Appointments for January are open.

Here’s to calm, clarity, and gentle beginnings ✨

With love,
Donna 🧡💫🤍

I’ve been a little quiet here over the past couple of weeks. The chaos and busyness of the Christmas season has felt a bit much at times - and I know I’m not the only one feeling the overwhelm.

The festive period can stir up so much: full diaries, heightened emotions, social demands and expectations … and sometimes a quiet sense of tiredness or mental overload that’s hard to put into words 🤍

For many people, especially those who are neurodivergent - ADHD, autistic, or with other differences in processing and regulation - this season can feel especially intense, with too much stimulation and very little space to breathe.

So I just wanted to check in, offer a little support, and say a heartfelt thank you.

Thank you to everyone who trusted me throughout 2025 with stress, anxiety, overthinking, fears like flying, emetophobia or claustrophobia, and habits such as reducing alcohol or stopping smoking. Watching subtle shifts take root - a little more calm, a little more confidence, a little more control - has been an absolute privilege 💫

As we gently move towards 2026, there’s an invitation to step into a new season:
✨ Fresh beginnings
✨ Clarity and calm
✨ Renewal - at your own pace, without pressure or expectation 🧡

You don’t need to rush into resolutions or reinvent yourself overnight. Sometimes the most powerful changes begin simply by allowing yourself to want something different and giving yourself permission to go gently.

I’ll be taking a little time out over the holiday season but appointments are available to book ahead for the new year.

Wishing you rest, grounding and gentleness as this year closes - and hope as a new one begins.

With love,
Donna x 🧡💫🤍

🧡💫🤍 Friday check-in 🧡💫🤍

As the week winds down, this is your little nudge to pause and breathe.

You’ve made it through another week, whatever it brought your way, and that’s something to feel proud of.

This weekend, try to carve out a bit of space just for you. Maybe that means a slow morning, a walk in nature, or simply switching off for a while.

Remember, rest isn’t lazy - it’s how we recharge, reset and reconnect with ourselves.

Be gentle with your mind and body, they’ve been carrying you all week 🥰

Wishing you a calm and nourishing weekend,

Donna 🧡
