Overcome ANXIETY

Anxiety is defined as experiencing nervousness, unease or worry typically about an event or something with an uncertain outcome, a situation caused or characterised by worry and/or nervousness.

Everyone feels anxious from time to time; anxious about doing well at a meeting, achieving good grades at school, socialising or even going on a date. Anxiety disorders are when these feelings becomes the norm which can cause considerable disruption and distress to everyday life.

Anxiety is often caused by a specific event that leads the person so anxious that they stop living their life to the full, often avoiding many situations.

Symptoms include nervousness, a racing heartbeat, clammy hands, dizziness, shortness of breath, a constant feeling that ‘something bad is going to happen’ and sometimes even trembling. All these symptoms can become very difficult to live with. Anxiety gets in the way of a functioning daily life.

Hypnotherapy and coaching have an impressive track record helping people with anxiety disorders. Thousands have benefited. Let me help you transition from anxious to calm.

SLEEP

In order to fall asleep we must feel relaxed and calm. This is difficult if a person is worrying or feeling stressed about a problem or issue, either consciously or unconsciously.

Insomniacs have very poor sleep patterns and find difficulty in letting go of a problem and relaxing. They go over and over a problem in their mind and the more they will themselves to stop worrying and fall asleep, the harder it becomes. It’s a negative cycle.

Poor sleep affects people in numerous ways making them grumpy, anxious, angry, emotionally upset and exhausted. Insomnia can have a very negative impact on a person’s health and outlook.

Using a mixture of hypnosis and coaching, insomnia can be overcome and you can rest assured you will start to experience wonderful, restful sleep.

Eating Disorders

Eating Disorders are complex mental health problems that have a number of underlying causes which can include, neurochemical changes, genetics, lack of confidence or self-esteem, perfectionist personality trait,or problems such as bullying,or difficulties with school work can all be triggers for the condition.

People often attribute eating disorders to media and the increased importance that is placed on wanting or ‘needing’ to have a certain body shape or type.

People with eating disorders may feel that they can only ever be happy, successful or worthwhile if they had a certain body shape

Having an eating disorders severely affect the quality of life of the individual and those that care for them. They can affect how you socialise, relationships with other people, ability to work, and have a severe impact on physical and mental health and well-being.
Often an eating disorder is attempting to satisfy an emotional need,via control , restriction and in certain cases self – harming.

It is important to know however that eating disorders can be beaten and it is possible that anyone living with an eating disorder can fully recover and take back control and enjoy a healthy, happy lifestyle.

PHOBIAS and FEARS

Phobias and fears can range from a fear of flying, vomiting, swimming, spiders and dogs to exam nerves, dentists, doctors and illness.

Phobias and fears are where your mind has been ‘set’ to protect you. Your brain has taken a single situation or event and learnt enough from it to trigger an unconscious, protective response from that point on. For example, say you saw a spider as a little child and called for your mother and when she saw it she panicked, freaked out and screamed. From her reaction you will have immediately learnt that the spider is dangerous.

When you next saw a spider you would react in the same way your mother did because you will have ‘learnt’ to panic, freak out and scream. Your mind believes it is protecting you.

The mind only needs an 80% match to the original negative situation and the phobia or fear can snowball, for example a fear of dogs can extend to other animals such as cats and birds.

The good news is that your unconscious mind knows the origins of the original event.
Hypnosis is a brilliant technique to find the root cause and help to overcome the phobia or fear once and for all. Using this form of hypnosis means that even though the mind learnt from the original event, it can unlearn and heal just as quickly.

CONFIDENCE

Lack of self confidence and low self esteem can be crippling and debilitating. They can stop a person from socialising, hinder progress at work and within relationships and generally erode a person’s enjoyment of a full and wonderful life.

People with a lack of self confidence or low self esteem are usually acutely aware of their errors and chide themselves for ‘doing it wrong’. They take things extremely personally and struggle with personal criticism because it feeds directly into their negative belief system. To make themselves feel better they often resort to putting others down in order to feel better and literally cannot help themselves.

Usually lack of self confidence and low self esteem are established at a young age as a result of actions or words by a parent, sibling or carer, intentionally or unintentionally. As the young mind develops negative beliefs such as ‘not being good enough’ or ‘worthy’ are so firmly planted that the negative cycle pattern simply continues.

By using hypnosis the negative belief system is challenged and re-wired. It’s like taking off a pair of dirty glasses you have worn for years and replacing them with a fresh pair that are crystal clear. Confidence is key in everything you do. Let me help you to truly believe in yourself and that you can be confident at all times.

Public SPEAKING

No one was born with a fear of public speaking. This fear has been learnt, usually in childhood and could be from something as simple as having to read aloud to the class at school.

The rush of adrenaline and fear could have been so crippling that the mind has held onto that feeling ever since and believes it needs to ‘protect’ in similar situations.

Situations such as giving talks or workshops in front of many people, video conferencing, speaking in front of or presenting to senior collegues, dealing with conflict or even the anticipation of public speaking can create fear and stress.

With advanced structured hypnotherapy and coaching, immediate changes can take place and hundreds of clients have reported that previous feelings of fear and nervousness have been replaced with calm, confidence and empowerment. Public speaking is an important skill and one which can be easily and effortlessly acquired.

Stop SMOKING

Are you sick and tired of smoking? Are you an otherwise well rounded, strong minded individual who can’t understand why they just can’t stop?

Have you tried numerous times and methods to stop and yet found yourself smoking again? Are you sick of your clothes, hair and breath smelling? If you are fed up with being ‘addicted’ and not in control and if you are you sick of that little voice in the back of your mind every time you light a cigarette casting dark thoughts in your mind then let me help you stop.

Do you ever say any of the following statements:

  • I enjoy smoking sometimes
  • I don’t enjoy smoking anymore
  • I feel like it’s my only real treat, my escape!
  • It’s something I do in ‘my time’

  • It helps me relax
  • It helps me when I’m stressed
  • I hate it but I just can’t stop
  • If so, its time to get in touch.

I will help you re-frame your mind with stronger, happier and healthier beliefs, putting you back in control and living a calm, happy and smoke-free life.
