Hypnotherapy can help free you to be you!

Have you ever felt like you're weighed down with life, stuff, people, places, events that go on around you? I'm sure we all have from time to time. Sometimes it's easy to let go, to free yourself and move on. Other times we feel stuck, almost unable to move on . . . we can't see the wood for the trees. . . we feel stuck in a rut . . . life gets on top of us . . . feel trapped.
Life has it's ups and downs . . . so it is so important to take a step back from time to time to see things from a different perspective, one where we can be an observer of the mind and thoughts (which often cloud our mind) . . . less emotionally involved, so we can find the answers which are right for us, to help us move on and let go of those things that weigh us down.

When you learn how to take a step outside of any situation, the answers are there, things appear more clearly, the things you need to do or not do (as is sometimes the case). It is so much easier to see patterns, habits and behaviours in others, because of this reason . . . you are less emotionally involved, you are slightly away from the situation and things seem clearer ~ in fact sometimes things seem so clear they are just simply so obvious to you, when you can see things from a distance.

As a Cognitive Hypnotherapist in the Kettering area, I guide my clients through being able to take that step outside of the 'Stuff' that they are in, so they can discover the changes which are right for them, to be able to move through the 'Stuff' and move on to brighter things . . . freeing them up to be themselves . . . discovering new ways of being.
Just like a bird that is trapped in a cage, wants to spread it's wings and be free . . . free to fly . . . free to be . . . free to explore new experiences in it's life. So as we release the thoughts, feelings and habits that hold us back . . . we too can enjoy that same kind of freedom too.
Hypnotherapy can help build new resources and strengths within you, such as Confidence . . . Self-Belief . . . Motivation . . . Courage . . . Positivity . . . Purpose . . . etc etc. We are all different and need different things in our lives, and at different times of our lives . . . and we all have the capacity to develop these resources through support and guidance.

So if you were totally free . . . who would you be? . . . what would you do? . . . how high would you fly?  
Realizing what holds you back is the first step to change . . . the second is doing something about it!

Increase Your Confidence


Confidence ~ What is it & how do we make More?
What is it that makes us all so different?
Some people seem to exude confidence. . . confidence in how they walk . . . confidence in how they talk . . . confidence in how they look . . . confidence in how they act. But they may not be confident in all areas of their lives?
Because sometimes even confidence has differences . . . often our lives get framed into different aspects . . . which I like to think of as our 'wheel of life':~
* Business/Career
* Relationships/Family
* Education/Personal Development
* Health/Fitness
* Finances/Wealth
* Spirituality
So you might be surprised to discover that even the most successfully confident person at work, may be lacking in confidence in their relationships or other areas in their 'wheel of life'. Sometimes people appear outwardly confident, but inside may have low self-esteem and don't feel good enough, or worthy enough.

Try this Confidence Building exercise
:~
*    Think of a role model . . . someone who oozes the right type of Confidence for you . . . whether it’s someone you know personally or someone famous who represents how you’d most like to be.
*    Next write down all of their qualities that make them appear Confident to you ~ what is it about them that you like?
*     Then close your eyes and imagine them in front of you and observe those qualities.
*     Then imagine you could super-impose your head on their shoulders and see yourself taking on those qualities too
*     Then see the whole of you as them and draw those positive qualities back inside yourself
*     Take a few deep breaths embedding these qualities within yourself and imagine how you can use these more and more each and every day.
*   Practise this daily to focus your unconscious mind on how you want to be ~ until it becomes just the way you are!

     For more practical ways to understand your inner confidence and how to strengthen it even more, then join me on Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th March in Kettering, Northamptonshire, for a personal development course based around confidence and becoming the best you can be in your life. 
Let your imagination flow and be curious at where this weekend might take you . . . to what new possibilities and opportunities may lie ahead.

Go to my webpage about the course here to discover more ~

Early bird booking discount for all bookings made before 22nd February!

Looking forward to seeing you there!

How We Talk To Ourselves

Walking around our garden at our premises in Northamptonshire where we practice as Hypnotherapists using hypnosis to help others create change in their lives.
I was talking away to myself inside my head and making a list of gardening jobs which needed my attention and being a little cross with myself because something I had planned had not worked properly.Noticing that internal conversation and taking note of the tone of voice I was using, then noticing how I felt, then taking a moment or two to reflect on those thoughts.It occurred to me do we listen often enough to how we talk to ourselves? How can the tone and quality of what we say to ourselves (in other words our internal dialogue) impact on our lives in both a positive and negative sense?
Consider this statement
THE WAY WE TALK, IS THE WAY WE THINK, IS THE WAY WE FEEL,
by considering that statement and listening honestly to your own inner voice how do you talk to you? How does what you say to yourself impact on the way you think and others think of you? How do you feel, and how do others feel about you?
At Sahasrara in Northamptonshire we use Hypnosis,and Hypnotherpeutic interventions to help create change, enabling our clients use their internal voice to have a positive and motivated effect on themselves and others.Change is an option available to everyone! In the words of the Jedi you do or do not - their is no try -just do it contact Sahasrara today and boook your hypnosis session.

Magic, Snowballs, & Hypnosis

Hypnosis, Hypnotists,Hypnotherapy, Hypnotherapeutic interventions what are they and I am often asked "just how does hypnosis work"? my answer is, its "magic" or in many cases it can be just like a "snowball effect". Lets look at the two effects separately.
The magical effect is when a client has an hypnosis session and its as if a magic wand has been waved over them and their presenting issue has gone instantly- fantastic! - as if by "magic"!
The snowball effect is experienced by a number of hypnosis sessions each session reinforcing the previous session thus creating a "snowball effect" - or in other words a momentum or gathering together of new behaviour over a period of time.
Both effects have created real change permanently,reinforcement ensures that change lasts.
At Sahasarara in Northamptonshire in the midalnds all our clients are given a personalised CD or MP3 download to help the process along.
Hypnosis, hypnotherapy, is a truly amazing method to rapidly change responses and behaviours.
All behaviour and responses are learned, hypnosis rapidly allows the process of unlearning and relearning so that new behaviours and responses are automatic.
Rapid learning is allowed by bypassing the conscious critical factor of the mind/brain,(the critical factor is thought to be a relic of evolution in that it slows down the process of learning for survival purposes),hypnosis does this quickly effectively painlessly and safely.
Sometimes learning something new can take a little time, remember learning to ride a bicycle, drive a car, swim or read and write. Generally speaking you were shown the basics and the methodology then with practice this was reinforced until it became automatic.
In conclusion; hypnosis enables rapid and permanent change, learning anything new requires practice or reinforcing so hypnosis can be both "magic" or "snowball gathering snow" Begin your practice at Sahasrara consultancy for hypnosis, hypnotherapy,NLP,TFT,And Timeline Therapy

weight loss

At our hynotherapy practice in Northamptonshire in the Midlands we have a very succesful track record with clients who want to control their weight with hypnotic techniques or hypnosis
Its at this time of the year with the holiday season almost upon us that we perhaps begin to look more closely at our image or more precisely our body image, how others see us and how we feel about that. The media are constantly bombarding us with the perfect size, the perfect shape , the perfect dress size , the perfect waist measurement, bronze tanned bodys , the perfect pecs, the perfect muscle toned body ect ect .
Unconsciously we judge ourselves by what we see , read , and watch in the media. At this level we are constantly comparing and contrasting ourselves with what and who we see around us and what we are lead to believe is "normal".
Over time this inner dialogue at an unconscious (and sometimes conscious level)can be very unhealthy and destructive both emotionally and physically.This can manifest its self in many ways with general anxiety and stress about body image or even worse!
Its quite common for people to feel helpless about their situation perhaps lacking in the confidence and motivation to know that they can feel differently about how they percieve themselves. At Sahasrara we dont believe in a "one cap fits all aproach" instead we believe we are able to offer the perfect blend of therapys to suit the individual and enable them to think differently about themselves using Hypnothrapy Hypnosis,NLP, Timeline Therapy, and Thought Field Therapy.

Thought Field Therapy

Both Lori and I completed a Thought Field Therapy training recently which we believe will compliment the Hypnotherapy, hypnosis,Timeline Therapy and NLP currently offered at our practice in Northamptonshire Northants in the Midlands.I first came across TFT a few years ago on a hypnotherapy and NLP (Neuro Linguistic programming) training course with Paul McKenna and Richard Bandler and was "blown away" with how quick the results could be with this technique its a very useful "tool" to have in the "box". Its particularly useful in reducing stress and anxiety very quickly and very useful used in conjunction with hypnotherapy and Timeline to get our clients a positive and lasting outcome. TFT( Thought Field Therapy) has many applications from optimising sport performance to help in alleviating pain and trauma.We have a very successful practice in Hypnosis or Hypnotherapy in Northamptonshire

Best Wishes
