Do you ever feel like a big pile og poo 💩?

I was feeling that way the other day until i did THIS

03/08/2022

Every afternoon I used to feel like a claw was gnawing at my empty stomach

I’d make healthy choices up until around 3pm and then fall off totally off track despite my best of intentions

My kids would get off the bus to find me scarfing down potato chips in the pantry

And I’m supposed to be someone that helps people loose weight????

Then I took some time to check in with what was going on with ME right around that timeframe…

I was bored.

I was a little anxious about the kids coming home after school

I was dissatisfied with how much I thought I should have accomplished that day.

Potato chips never solved any of that- trust me I tried 100’s of times

Now I pre-empt my afternoons by setting a daily alarm for 230

When the timer goes off I do 3 things
1. drink a massive glass of water
2. write a list or mentally catalog all of the things I HAVE done that day
3. Take 3 deep breaths and envision myself at the end of the day with a big smile on my face

And when I do all 3 it turns out I’m not usually hungry at all…. At least not for food.

Do you have a time of day that you regularly find yourself eating mindlessly?

Anxiety is a mental health condition that can cause feelings of worry, fear, or tension. For some people, anxiety can also cause panic attacks and extreme physical symptoms, like chest pain.

What causes anxiety and anxiety disorders can be complicated. It’s likely that a combination of factors, including genetics and environmental reasons, play a role. However, it’s clear that some events, emotions, or experiences may cause symptoms of anxiety to begin or may make them worse. These elements are called triggers.

Anxiety triggers can be different for each person, but many triggers are common among people with these conditions. Most people find they have multiple triggers. But for some people, anxiety attacks can be triggered for no reason at all.
For that reason, it’s important to discover any anxiety triggers that you may have.

What can you do now to help your anxiety?

Breathe deeply.

Get some perspective. Anxiety can stem from needless worry about a lot of things that aren’t important in the long run.

Talk it out. Research proves that simply naming your feelings can help to calm you down.

Don’t ignore it. Anxiety is like a red flag, telling you that something needs attention. Don’t ignore this sign — contact a professional to help you through it.

Keep an anxiety diary. It is really helpful to understand what sets off your anxiety. We call these triggers or antecedents.

Become more aware of negative thoughts. As it is the thoughts about the situation that causes anxiety, become more aware of what you are saying to yourself in your mind.

Anxiety is frequently connected to sleeping problems. Excess worry and fear make it harder to fall asleep and stay asleep through the night.

Sleep deprivation can then make anxiety worse resulting in a negative cycle involving insomnia and anxiety disorders.

Anxiety is a feeling of worry and unease. It’s normal to experience anxiety occasionally in response to fearful or stressful situations.

Worrying about falling asleep can itself complicate matters, creating sleep anxiety that reinforces a person’s sense of dread and preoccupation. These negative thoughts about going to bed can then create challenges to healthy sleep schedules and routines.

Chronic stress is one of the greatest enemies of the body and its many systems.

Luckily, there are so many ways to reduce stress in our lives and to return to a ‘rest and digest’ state:

- daily meditation

- mindful attitude to everything we do

- regular exercise

What increases your sense of wellbeing?

If you struggle with anxiety it is not your fault, you haven’t done anything wrong.
You might have a lot going on, life has become more of a struggle and it can feel like one step forward and two steps back.

Understanding how our brain works allow us to change the way we think and perceive things and learn to use this knowledge to our advantage.

Anxiety can show up in many different ways: fear of going out/driving/socializing etc.
If this is you, then maybe I can help.

Or if you feel like hypnotherapy might be for you, simply get in touch and we can have a chat on the phone or via email.

Our anxiety does not come from thinking about the future, but from wanting to control it.

Double tap if you agree.

Living a full life doesn’t mean living a life without pain or stress, but it does mean that you’re not merely coping, you are thriving and you can reach your goals without fear of burnout or overwhelm. Because your relationship with yourself changes: you learn to prioritize yourself, love yourself, and build healthy boundaries.

If you’re spending your time in stress and anxiety, know that it doesn’t have to be so. In hypnotherapy, we can find the cause of the fears, worries, and anxiety and can release the underlying traumas.

Success requires sacrifices, but you shouldn’t sacrifice your health or relationships. Nor should you be stressed at times.

You can be looking forward to challenges and enjoy every step of the journey.

There is a strong link between thoughts, feelings and actions with anxiety and the way we think can have huge consequences for how we feel and what actions we take or how we communicate with others.
⁠
Anxiety can lead to a huge range of actions from avoidance (which is the most common) to more self-destructive behaviours like substance abuse.⁠

People who struggle with anxiety generally have low self esteem and lack confidence in themselves and so have self-beliefs such as “I am not good enough”, “Why would anyone listen to me?” and this leads to a passive communication style.

There are 3 main styles of communication:
-Passive communication is characterised by being; compliant, submissive, talks little, vague non-committal communication, puts self-down, praises others.
-Assertive communication is characterised as; actions and expressions fit with words spoken, firm but polite and clear messages, respectful of self and others.
-Aggressive communication is; sarcastic, harsh, always right, superior, know it all, interrupts, talks over others, critical, put-downs, patronising, disrespectful of others.

What tends to happen is that we all do a mixture of these styles in different situations and in response to other people’s communication styles. Have a think yourself about when you display each different style and in response to what.

Let yourself feel excited about every success, no matter how small. With each little win, you're getting closer to your goal. Let that thought excite you! Don't save your excitement for the “big” things; celebrate each step that you take.

Taking time to reflect on your little achievements and successes is so important to help maintain our positive brain chemistry.

Imagine having peace of mind - being confident, happy, and in control of your problem.
Anxiety doesn’t have to be a permanent fixture in your life.
Hypnotherapy is the solution.

When you relax deeply into a hypnotic trance, your subconscious mind is open to suggestions – and we can work together to bring about those changes that you’re hoping for.
