The smoking habit

Moyra — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 13:27:40 +0000

Smokers can usually associate their smoking with different things they do during the day and night; they have a cigarette first thing in the morning, with a cup of tea, driving in the car, watching television, at break time at work, with a drink…If any smoker is asked to identify which of these cigarettes they really need, the honest answer is few of them – the others are smoked purely through habit.

Hypnotherapy can help you break the habit – not only to help you stop but to keep you stopped – either as one long session or as several shorter ones. It will depend which approach you might prefer. The idea is to break the associations in your mind and allow you to take control of the habit.

It isn’t magic though! It will bolster your motivation and willpower but you need to be motivated in the first place and have a genuine desire to stop. This doesn’t work if someone else is giving you an ultimatum. So, explore your reasons and if it’s truly the right time for you, then come to see us and move forward to a healthier future.

Happy New Year?

Moyra — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 17:06:19 +0000

This is the time of year when most of us resolve to make a difference to our lives and to make the forthcoming year better for us in some way. We usually start off feeling motivated to change some aspect – perhaps our weight, our habits, our outlook…and invariably, all too soon, for the majority of us we find ourselves behaving in the same old way. Resolutions broken even earlier than we’d thought and feelings of dejection or even despair of ever truly changing can take over.

Hypnotherapy can really help each one of us to make the changes we truly want to make – and to make these changes lasting and permanent. Our approach of hypnotherapy combined with nlp techniques can really support you to realise that doing things in the same way that you’ve always done will only get you what you’ve always got. We can help you find your inner resources to make real change. Try it! You might be amazed at what you can truly do!

Hypnotherapy for children

Moyra — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 20:40:17 +0000

As an ex Headteacher and teacher of many years, I have always enjoyed working with children. As a hypnotherapist, my experiences have been just as positive. Chidren have very vivid imaginations and this openness can make them particularly receptive to hypnosis. We have worked with a significant number of children from about 8yrs and older. They have come to us for a range of issues such as confidence and self esteem issues (especially if they have been victims of bullying); anxiety issues (for example, during family break-ups, school-related problems or fears) and general behavioural issues such as anger management and communication problems.

Our approach is ‘light touch’ and is characterised by child-friendly language and images to which they can easily relate. This allows the child to leave each session feeling more relaxed about the issue they have come with and able to move forward in terms of their behaviours and emotions regarding this.

Should you use self hypnosis?

Moyra — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 20:48:42 +0000

Once a client has experienced the hypnotic state with us – hetero hypnosis – and is familiar and comfortable with the state then we would introduce them to self hypnosis where they can induce trance state on their own as a form of empowerment. This helps remove some of the mystique surrounding hypnosis and shows the client they are their own key to change and that to learn to relax in this way is beneficial and safe.

Hypnotherapy to stop smoking

Moyra — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 20:25:34 +0000

Smoking is a learned habit – none of us was born with a cigarette in our mouth - and so, the good news about quitting is that habits can be ‘unlearned’ as they are regulated by the subconscious mind. Hypnotherapy can help you change this habit, reprogramming your mind to give you more control. If you have made the decision that you are not going to smoke again then get in touch and begin to move on with your life
