I have had several clients come to see me this year for help to stop biting their nails. Nail biting is usually an automatic habit, the “biter” is usually completely unaware that they are doing it until someone shouts “stop biting your nails.” Most automatic habits can be overcome with one session of direct suggestion […]

Self Hypnosis – No 3
I trust that if you are doing this on a regular basis you are feeling the positive benefits and, of course, remember to enjoy it! This weeks suggestion, and really feel it when you say it, is; “Wonderful opportunities are everywhere for me.” This suggestion will help you notice things that you may not have noticed […]
Self Hypnosis – The 2nd one.
I’m sure you found last weeks suggestion “Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better” beneficial and that you have noticed some positive changes. I must stress that this is not positive thinking. By using the “eye-lock” technique, wanting and allowing yourself to go in to a state of hypnosis, these suggestions will […]
Why is hypnotherapy so effective?
Hypnotherapy can be much more effective in bringing about a permanent and profound change because it works with our subconscious mind, as opposed to our conscious mind. Traditional psychotherapy is generally much less effective, much more costly and takes a lot more time than hypnosis because it works with conscious thought. You would sit there and talk […]
Self-Hypnosis – The 1st one.
We start this self-hypnosis programme with probably the most famous suggestion of them all. A Frenchman named Emile Coue found that when he asked his patients to give themselves this suggestion, almost all of them showed an improvement either mentally or physically. “Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better.” The beauty […]
Monday Launch
From next Monday I will come up with a weekly suggestion for those that know the “eye-lock” technique which is a light state of hypnosis. Many of my clients are aware of this method of self-hypnosis, and it is a really good way of giving yourself positive, beneficial suggestions which are accepted by the subconscious […]
How could hypnotherapy help with physical complaints? Pt 2.
There is a massive mind-body connection. If we feel fantastic, we are more likely to whizz around getting things done, we have more energy, we sleep better, our posture improves, we have a more positive and enthusiastic outlook on life and our brain & body performs much better. If we feel crappy and depressed, we are less […]
How could hypnotherapy help with physical complaints? Pt 1.
Please be aware that hypnotherapy does not make you bionic or indestructible, it helps accelerate any desired thoughts or feelings to become beliefs at a subconscious level. Any physical complaint that you have or notice MUST be investigated and looked at by a Doctor first. I am not a Doctor nor do I offer medical […]
Dragons and Fairies….Trust me, I'm a healer
There was a programme on BBC2 on Monday night called Trust me, I'm a healer. It featured a guy called Peter who is a Shaman. The reporter seemed to be very sceptical from the start and the programme showed Peter treating his clients using Shamanic methods including calling upon fairies, dragons and genies to help. […]
Not everyone sees the light…..
I was once talking about weight control with someone who had asked if I could help. They told me that they had listened to a CD supplied with McKenna’s book “I can make you thin” and had found it successful at first but were now back to their original weight. They thought that they had […]
Are you ready to quit smoking?
Here is a quick and simple test which is surprisingly accurate. Ask yourself, on a scale of one to ten, if one is that you are quite happy to smoke & enjoy smoking, and ten is that you absolutely want to stop, where would you put yourself? Remember your immediate answer. If someone wants to stop smoking […]
The true cost of smoking, literally.
What would you and your partner do with £407,887.50? Spend it on cigarettes perhaps? Well, if you and your partner both smoke 60 cigarettes a day between you, and you both smoke for another 50 years, this is exactly how much it will cost you. Maybe you’re thinking that you don’t smoke that much. […]
Cannabis and mental illness.
A recent inquiry in to the effects of cannabis smoking and mental illness has shown that 8 out of 10 first episode psychiatric disorders occurred in those who were heavy cannabis users. The report listed no fewer than 400 different scientific studies that point to links between use of cannabis, illness and destructive behaviour. Can hypnotherapy help? […]
We’re not all spooky…….
Whilst I very much enjoy ITV’s Wire in the Blood, last nights episode unfortunately showed another stereotypical Hypnotherapist. The guy was going on about writing books and thought a murderer was innocent because “I regressed him back to childhood and there were no issues there”, or words to that effect. Two things, people. Myth 1 […]
