Hypnotherapy for self care is not just for those who are already suffering mentally. It can actually enhance an already ok life. Sessions focused on self care help you to recognise and ensure that you make enough room in your life for YOU to excel in whatever make you tick. There is always an area of our lives that could be improved; saying ‘No’, protecting personal space, confidence, being able to switch off and many more. A hypnotherapy session ad hoc, to top up after sessions previously or just for the joy of the relaxation you experience is never to be sneezed at.
Ear Worms, Self-talk and powerful words (things to avoid when you set resolutions) The primitive part of our mind has certain built-in filters that either permit or prevent information from getting in and influencing us. ‘What ifs’, the mind really doesn’t like its missing pieces. Just like when we get a bar of a song stuck in our heads that goes on and on all day to a point of irritation. The brain doesn’t like the partial information and sets the process going on repeat until it finds a conclusion. So, if you are thinking a negative ‘What if’ you will be quite stressed anxious or even depressed by the end of the day . The same may be said of events that happen in life. Events that remain incomplete get locked in and repeated time and again making the smallest of mole hills feel like mount Everest. This in turn leads to anxiety, self-sabotage, fear and low self-esteem all locked in by that perpetual self-talk running in the background ‘trying’ to find the missing piece .
Amongst the words in our self-talk that should be avoided are many culprits that contribute to these negative thoughts. ‘I can’t’, ‘What if’, ‘I’ll try’, ‘if’, ‘just’, ‘but’ and ‘why’ are just a few. The more times you tell yourself you can’t, then you won’t! Your brain believes you. What if, is usually followed by a negative because that is seen to be safer by the amygdala (part of the primitive mind), ‘I’ll try to’ usually ends with, ‘but I failed’. Just, makes something seem insignificant and unimportant. But, is usually followed by an excuse as to why not and the why can amplify the problem you are attempting to solve and ensures you get stuck.
So, it is really important to check your self-talk and ensure you are not setting yourself up to fail.

If you have questions about how Solutions Focused Hypnotherapy can help you, we'd love to hear from you.
The old cliché you cannot pour from an empty cup starts here with a refill. On your own or grab a small group of friends or family, kick your shoes off, relax back in a comfy chair and drift off into a dreamlike state. This is a time to practice a bit of self-care mid-week perhaps. Clear your mind and recharge with a positive outlook so you can enjoy and optimise your week, then slide into the weekend with ease. Who are the sessions for? Aimed at those with a busy schedule and who need to take some time (for themselves) to recharge. Use this space to offload and dump any stress that has built up, so you can clear your chattering mind and make space for productive thinking. Currently this is offered on-line but small group sessions face to face may be possible.
What is covered you can chose the topic or theme for your group?
When we behave in one way often enough due to phobias or fears, it becomes our default course of action we believe the lies our brain tricks us into believing.
Do you feel held back? Suffer with stage fright? Get blocks when you give a presentation at work or compete in a sport?
Stress and anxiety can take many forms and in many ways very similar and may end up ruling our lives unnecessarily. Often it feels like we have no control, but we do. We can take control of our responses.
