Welcome to Spring, what a nice time of year it is, spring flowers and blossom and trees in bud ready to burst into lush green leaves, birds singing, twittering and tweeting, the longer evenings and sun, it makes life so much easier, doesn’t it.
I’m feeling pleased having submitted all my level 5 units for the Advanced Hypnotherapy Diploma and wait for the last two units to be marked. It will be my highest qualification and its the highest available within hypnotherapy to date so fingers crossed. It’s been hard work, however I have found it so interesting and fascinating and it helps me to broaden and deepen my knowledge and understanding enormously.
Here’s a reminder of some of the common issues that Solution Focussed Hypnotherapy can help with.
- Ease stress
Stress reduction with hypnosis is one of the easiest ways to achieve deep relaxation. It is a very effective way to enhance your health and well-being, leaving you feeling calmer, more positive and very refreshed. - Help you achieve success
Change the way we think to allow you to help achieve success in your life whether in your finances, relationships, creativity, motivation, improve your confidence and self-esteem. - Help with anxiety and depression
Anxiety and depression can be caused or exacerbated by harsh critical self-talk and the overthinking. We have over 75,000 thoughts a day and most of these can be negative. Hypnotherapy is an effective way of changing the way we think about situations and help move us towards more positive and empowering thoughts and behaviours. - Help to Exercise
Exercise is so beneficial to our wellbeing in life whether its going for a walk, running, dancing its beneficial. Author and renowned psychiatrist John J. Ratey says if exercise was available in pill format then it would be out of stock and he’s not wrong. Exercise gives us an amazing boost to our body and releases chemicals called endorphins. These endorphins interact with the receptors in your brain that reduce your perception of pain. Endorphins also trigger a positive feeling in the body, similar to that of morphine.
Regular exercise has been proven to:
- Reduce stress
- Ward off anxiety and feelings of depression
- Boost self-esteem
- Improve sleep
Exercise also has added health benefits:
- It strengthens your heart.
- It increases energy levels.
- It lowers blood pressure.
- It improves muscle tone and strength.

Whether you smoke 80 a day or have smoked for 60 years, hypnotherapy is one of the most successful ways to stop smoking safely and easily with no cravings. - Help change your eating habits
If you want to reduce your weight without dieting and feelings of deprival, this is a great way of changing your eating habits. Hypnotherapy does this by removing unwanted blocks to your success, addressing emotional eating, your negative thoughts and feelings about your body and desire for unhealthy snacks. Increasing the desire for eating nourishing foods, water and exercise, this can be a lasting and beneficial way to stay healthy. - Help you stop drinking

Stress, anxiety and so many other factors can affect the body and can make it more difficult to get pregnant.

So for now, I’m off for a run as I have a half marathon to train for in May and raise money for a Children’s Hospice. I’m looking forward to getting those endorphins flowing and burn off some of those calories from a lovely Sunday lunch.
Have a great April.
Best wishes
