Monday Motivation – A story about feelings….

31 March 2008

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Richness, Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all the others including Love. One day, it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all prepared their boats and left the island except for Love, who was the only one who stayed behind. You [...]

BBC Alternative Therapies – Reflexology

26 March 2008

I have been umming and ahhing about whether to comment on this edition of Kathy's “journey” but the ahh's have one and here are my thoughts. Reflexology, massaging feet, was “created” in the 1930's in the USA, not in ancient Egypt or ancient anywhere else. The feet “maps” that are used are effectively what the reflexologists [...]

Monday Motivation – Two frogs

25 March 2008

A group of frogs were travelling through the woods, and two of them fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs saw how deep the pit was, they told the two frogs that they were as good as dead. The two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump up out of the pit [...]

BBC Alternative Therapies – Hypnotherapy – Kathy Sykes

19 March 2008

Hmmmm, interesting. The programme that aired recently on BBC2 took a look at hypnotherapy. The main question on the mind and lips of it's presenter, Kathy Sykes, seemed to be “can I be hypnotised?” Well, what does it mean to be hypnotised? The definition of hypnosis that I use and agree with is “The bypassing [...]

Monday Motivation – Smile

17 March 2008

I recently spent a week off to look after my children, and during one of the mornings I had the opportunity to help out in my son's nursery class on “Deco Day”, a day when all the youngsters (most about 4 years old) made various Easter objects and decorations. I was placed on the Easter basket [...]

** BACK IN OFFICE **

17 March 2008

I'm back in the office now seeing clients as per usual and catching up with emails etc. Had a great week last week with my children but playtime is now over. I've said before how spending quality time with them grounds me in the most simple ways, and it really does, but I always seem [...]

7 March 2008

This is a great little intelligence test and costs nothing. Click on the link below, print off a copy or copies for yourself, family, friends or work colleagues and have fun. When I did this with some of my family, what appeared to be an easy answer for me to find was difficult for others and [...]

Do I guarantee my hypnotherapy work?

5 March 2008

The results? No. Absolutely not. If I could guarantee that someone will do something only because I say so, I would have been whisked away by MI5 or MI6 a long time ago, in fact I would probably be running both of those organisations by now. I work with a client's own desire, determination and commitment [...]

Monday Motivation – Do it anyway

3 March 2008

I stumbled across this little piece on the Internet and it makes absolute sense to me. It is all about doing the right things because you want to, not because others see you do them. It is the difference between being superficial and being true to your own beliefs, it is the difference between telling [...]
