Trust is fragile. Once broken, it’s hard to restore.

‘Sorry’ can heal a mistake, but it struggles to repair a shattered trust. Mistakes are part of being human, but breaking trust goes deeper—it affects the very foundation of relationships.

So let’s remember to honor the trust people place in us. Mistakes can be forgiven, but rebuilding trust takes time, effort, and sometimes, it may never fully happen.

Choose your actions wisely. Respect the trust given to you, because while forgiveness may come, forgetting and trusting again is not always possible.”

What are your thoughts on rebuilding trust after it’s been broken? Is it possible, or is it never quite the same? Let’s discuss below! 👇

“Change your mindset, change your life.”

Too often, we hold ourselves back with doubt and negative thoughts. “It won’t work,” we say, before we’ve even tried. But what if, instead, you told yourself, “It’s working”?

When you shift your focus to believing in progress—even if it’s small—you start to see opportunities instead of obstacles. You take action, build momentum, and attract success.

Remember: Your mindset shapes your reality. Stop giving energy to excuses and start fueling your dreams with belief.

What’s one thing you’ll stop doubting and start believing in today? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬✨

🌟Breaking Free from Overthinking🌟

Do you ever find yourself stuck in an endless loop of “what-ifs” and “whys”? You’re not alone. Shelli
used to overthink everything—a delayed reply, an ambiguous comment, or a vague email. It drained her energy and amplified her anxiety, yet it never led to answers.

Her breakthrough? A simple, but powerful shift: ask better questions.

Instead of spiraling into worst-case scenarios, she started asking herself:
✅ Do I have enough information to worry about this?
✅ What’s one small step I can take right now?
✅ Is this thought helping me or hurting me?

These questions stopped her mind from reacting and turned it toward clarity and problem-solving. Overthinking lost its grip, and she finally felt at peace.

💡 Now, your turn! The next time you’re caught in overthinking, pause and ask yourself:
👉 Is this thought worth my energy?
👉 What’s within my control?
👉 What’s the kindest thing I can tell myself right now?

Sometimes, peace begins with a single question. Let’s help each other stop overthinking and start moving forward. Share below—what’s one question you’ll ask yourself the next time you feel stuck? ⬇️

Not everything is meant for you, and that’s perfectly okay. When something feels off, trust your inner wisdom:

🌿 Walk away from what drains your energy.
🌿 Walk away from what dims your light.
🌿 Walk away from what doesn’t align with your goals and vision.

Your intuition knows the path forward. Trust it. Take that first step toward freedom, clarity, and peace.

💬 If this resonates with you, drop a “YES” in the comments!

When someone leaves your life, let them go. Your journey was never meant to depend on those who choose to walk away.”

Sometimes, people come into our lives for a period of time—to teach us, support us, or walk alongside us. When their role is complete, it’s okay to let them go.

Letting go isn’t about loss—it’s about making space for new growth, opportunities, and connections that align with your path. Trust that every ending leads to a new beginning. 💜🙏

🚨 Suspicious Behaviors That May Reveal a Liar 🚨

Have you ever had a gut feeling that someone wasn’t being entirely honest with you? While no single behavior can definitively prove someone is lying, there are certain red flags that may indicate deception. Here are some common suspicious behaviors to watch for:

1️⃣ Inconsistent Stories – If their story changes every time you ask for details, it could be a sign they’re making things up as they go.

2️⃣ Overexplaining or Too Vague – Liars sometimes add unnecessary details to sound convincing or remain intentionally vague to avoid being caught.

3️⃣ Body Language Mismatches – Watch for nervous behaviors like avoiding eye contact, fidgeting, or sudden shifts in posture that don’t align with their words.

4️⃣ Repeating the Question – When someone repeats your question before answering, it may be a stall tactic to buy time to think of a response.

5️⃣ Unusual Tone or Speech Patterns – Listen for changes in tone, hesitation, or unusually fast or slow speech. Anxiety about lying can often affect how they talk.

6️⃣ Defensiveness or Overreacting – A liar might get overly defensive or accuse you of being distrustful to divert attention away from themselves.

7️⃣ Microexpressions – These are tiny facial expressions that flash quickly and may betray true feelings like guilt or fear before they mask them.

⚠️ Note: Not everyone showing these behaviors is lying—they could simply be nervous or under stress. Always consider the context and look for patterns before jumping to conclusions.

Stress vs. Anxiety: Know the Difference!

Ever feel overwhelmed and wonder if it’s stress or anxiety? Here’s how to tell them apart:

✔️ Stress is often short-term and linked to a specific situation, like meeting deadlines, dealing with work pressure, or preparing for an event. Once the challenge passes, the stress usually fades.

✔️ Anxiety, on the other hand, tends to stick around. It can feel like a constant worry or fear, even when there’s no clear reason for it.

💡 Stress has clear triggers, like work, family, or finances. You can often pinpoint what’s causing it. Anxiety, however, might pop up without any obvious cause, making it harder to manage.

💡 You can manage stress with healthy habits like exercise, relaxation techniques, and better time management. But anxiety can require extra support, including therapy or other professional help, especially if it starts affecting your daily life.

💡 Emotionally, stress can make you feel frustrated, irritable, or overwhelmed, but anxiety brings a persistent sense of worry and unease that’s hard to shake.

Knowing the difference can make a big difference in how you cope. Take care of yourself, and remember, it’s always okay to ask for help when you need it!

Stuck on the Negative Thought Train? 🚂

Ever find yourself spiraling into a loop of negative thoughts? It’s like hopping on a train you didn’t mean to board:

“I don’t like _____ about my job.”
“I don’t like _____ about my body.”
“My life isn’t what I want it to be.”

The longer you stay on that train, the more tension you feel, and the harder it is to enjoy your day. Research shows that repetitive negative thinking is linked to things like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and even physical stress.

So, what helps you get off the negative thought train? Do you journal, take a walk, listen to music, or something else? Share your tips in the comments—you might inspire someone else to shift their mindset too! 💛

MY WEDNESDAY MESSAGE

During these challenging times, it can feel hard to laugh or even find small moments of joy. But even in the toughest moments, making space for happiness can brighten your day.

I like to start my day with something that lifts my spirits—whether it’s a laugh, a bit of humor, or a favorite song. Laughter is powerful, and I do my best to carry and share that energy with others. As the great Charlie Chaplin said, “A day without laughter is a day wasted.”

So today, my message is:

* Do something that makes you smile or feel happy—no matter how small. Even the smallest acts of joy can make a big difference.

* Play music, dance, or sing at the top of your voice—act like no one is watching and let yourself enjoy the moment. Fake it if you have to! The brain doesn’t know the difference between real and fake smiles or laughter, so even pretending can lift your mood.

* Take a few minutes each day to visit your “special place.” Whether it’s real or imaginary, spend a little time in a space where you feel calm, safe, and happy. It’s like a mini mental vacation. Shift your focus when negative thoughts creep in. The brain can’t multitask, so hum, sing, laugh, or smile to push those unwanted thoughts away.

* It’s okay to not feel okay sometimes. Just make sure you don’t stay in that space for too long—reach out if you need support. Talk to friends often. Connection is a wonderful antidote to feeling down.

* And most importantly, take a moment to breathe. Slow, soft, and even breaths can work wonders for calming the mind and body.

Remember, even on the hardest days, there’s always room for a little light. What’s one thing you’ll do today to bring yourself some joy? Share below—I’d love to hear from you!

🌿 Did You Know? Stress and Stomach Issues Are Often Connected 🌿

Have you ever noticed your stomach feeling off when you’re anxious or stressed? You’re not alone! The connection between our mind and gut is stronger than most of us realize.

When we’re stressed, our bodies release hormones that can disrupt digestion, leading to issues like bloating, cramps, nausea, or even more chronic conditions like IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). This is because our gut and brain are in constant communication through the “gut-brain axis.

👉 Stress can cause:

Upset stomach or indigestion
Increased acid production, leading to heartburn
Changes in gut bacteria balance
Slower or faster digestion, causing constipation or diarrhoea

The good news? Learning to manage stress can bring relief to your digestive system too! 🌱

Guided visualization is a powerful tool that can help reduce stress and ease digestive discomfort. By using your mind to create calming mental imagery, you can activate the relaxation response in your body, promoting smoother digestion and a greater sense of calm.

Have you ever experienced stomach issues during stressful times? Have you tried guided visualization for relief?

Transform Your Mindset: Build Positive Core Beliefs Today!

Visualization and positive affirmations work together to reinforce positive beliefs and help shape your mindset. Here’s how they connect:

1. Positive affirmations are statements that affirm your value, strengths, and potential. When you visualize these affirmations, you’re not only saying the words but also seeing yourself living them, making the affirmations feel more real and attainable.

2. Visualization allows you to imagine specific scenarios where you embody the positive beliefs you’re affirming. This mental rehearsal makes it easier to act with confidence and align your actions with those beliefs in real-life situations.

3. Visualizing while repeating affirmations engages your emotions, making the experience more vivid and memorable. This emotional involvement strengthens your brain’s connection to these positive beliefs, reinforcing them over time.

4. Together, visualization and affirmations can enhance your confidence and motivation, as you start to see and feel the possibility of positive change. This can make the journey to developing a positive mindset feel more achievable and energizing.

In short, while affirmations set the foundation of positive beliefs, visualization brings them to life, helping to embed these beliefs more deeply in your subconscious.

🌿 The Basic Principles of Mindfulness

Mindfulness is about embracing each moment with awareness, compassion, and openness. Here are some core principles to help you cultivate mindfulness in your daily life:

1. Awareness: Be fully present and notice your thoughts, feelings, and sensations without judgment.

2. Acceptance: Embrace your thoughts and feelings as they are, with curiosity rather than resistance.

3. Non-Judgment: Let go of labels like “good” or “bad,” and experience things just as they are.

4. Patience: Recognize that mindfulness is a journey. Be patient with yourself and the process.

5. Beginner’s Mind: Approach each moment with curiosity, as if seeing it for the first time.

6. Trust: Trust in yourself and your intuition to stay connected to your true self.

7. Non-Striving: Focus on “being” rather than “doing.” The goal isn’t to change but to observe.

8. Letting Go: Release attachments to specific thoughts or outcomes, creating space for new insights.

These principles nurture a mindful approach to life, helping you stay present, compassionate, and deeply connected to yourself. 🌸💫

Hypnosis and Essential Oils

I am a Clinical Hypnotherapist and I integrate essential oils with my hypnosis sessions. Our sense of smell is 10,000 times more powerful than our sense of taste and therefore from induction to awakening, therapeutic grade essential oils are a delightful and powerful way to enhance any hypnosis session. I specialise in emotional problems helping people to be more confident, manage their stress levels to feel calmer and more relaxed. I also have experience with habits, phobias, IBS, weight loss and women’s health problems.

Essential oils are my passion, they are an effective plant based medicine for managing your emotional and physical health.

I practice at my home in Mill Hill Village but can come to your home by special request.
