July 2010

July has been so busy, with seeing clients, studying for the supervisors course and lots going on behind the scenes with organisational work. Having completed my SFBT for hypnotherapists course and passed, I have now joined the UKASFP.

June 2010

Currently undertaking supervisors course which will finish some time in the Autumn.

Now a Registered member of the NCH, this recognises the fact I have experience and commitment to undergoing further training.

Have been asked to do a talk at local equestian centre, more details will be posted when I know a date.

April 2010

Noise Action Week is April 26th - 30th. Noise is number one stressor in a lot of people's lives. Using hypnosis, you can learn to ignore it to a reasonable degree. Erikson slept next to machinery for weeks to get himself conditioned to it.

The cold snap has made it difficult for many businesses across the country, but the news on the recession is brighter this year, so here's to a good year - once the snow has melted. I look forward to seeing members of the various networking organisations and to the Jelly meet ups.

October 2009

It's just not cricket - I heard them cry! Our cricket club in Nailsea was finding it tough to find sponsors during the recession, so they had a bright idea - to ask local business to enter a draw and the winners would be able to sponsor the team or get free publicity. Well I thought this an excellent way to support the community. As I'm always suggesting to my clients they keep fit, and knowing hypnosis can improve our sport - I jumped at the opportunity (did I say I was a champion high jumper at school - and I used hypnosis to do it!!!). Find out more at http://nailsea.play-cricket.com/home/home.asp?

From the end of October I was going to have a clinic at Tower House Medical Centre in Nailsea, but due to circumstances out of my control that has not happened. So for now it's business as usual.

One great way to help lift yourself out of depression is to join a group of some description. I have joined my local art club in Nailsea so I can meet with like minded people and get to know the community better. I have also joined the Nailsea Chamber of Commerce, for much the same reason. I also attend NRG networking lunches to get me out the house and develop relationships with other business people. We've forgotten as a society to be part of a group. Everything is done in front of a computer these days and despite having Facebook and other social networks, it's the actual interaction with others that keeps all the positive neurotransmitters pumping the good feeling round our brains. So leave this page alone and go find a club to join.

September 2009

Introducing Self Hypnosis for childbirth - Pregnancy is a time of great change and some women can find it stressful. There are numerous side effects too, caused by the hormone change that can have an impact too, backache, heartburn, nausea, insomnia, high blood pressure, fear and vivid dreams. Hypnotherapy can help with all these.

September 1, 2009 — Middle-aged people who smoke or have high blood pressure or diabetes are more likely to develop dementia later in life, a new study shows. In an article published online August 19 in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry, researchers suggest that controlling cardiovascular risk factors in midlife may prevent dementia later on.

August 2009

Interviewed on BBC Radio Somerset about motivation. The question being "Have we become lazy as a nation?". My question was "How do you motivate using hypnotherapy?" - The answer is to lower one's anxiety and this allows for the person to be able to use the pre frontal cortex of the brain where we come up with solutions to problems. So in times of recession when everyone is saying "there's no point", we can use our minds to find the means and ways of finding what we want.
