It started in softness.

It grew bolder.

Then it became impossible to contain.

Wow, what an honour to be there witnessing someone reconnect with that kind of lightness.

Iโ€™ve been supporting this client in the depths for a while now so that moment was its own kind of special.

This is the magic I get to witness. Itโ€™s why I do this work.

Whatโ€™s waiting to bloom in you?

Before your mind can make sense of it, your body already knows.
Tension. Restlessness. That feeling you just canโ€™t name yet.

Your nervous system is always speaking - sometimes in whispers, sometimes in waves.

This weekโ€™s video is an invitation to tune in earlier.
To pause. To notice. To respond with care.

Because when you learn to listen to your body, you can begin to meet yourself in a whole new way.

Thereโ€™s something powerful that happens when we stop pretending weโ€™re fine and start telling the truth.
Not the polished, curated version - just the honest one.

So many people I work with tell me they want deeper connectionโ€ฆ
but theyโ€™re also afraid of being โ€œtoo much.โ€

Hereโ€™s the truth: Real connection doesnโ€™t come from getting it right.
It comes from being real.

Sometimes the most healing thing we can do - for ourselves and others - is to stop hiding and let ourselves be seen.

This weekโ€™s video is about that moment. The one where honesty opens the door to something deeper.

Over the last 6 months Iโ€™ve noticed a quiet confidence growing ever louder in my girl. Itโ€™s been the simple things - ordering her own smoothies, offering to help others, tackling moments that scare her and singing in front of others.

Often we think that confidence is something we either have or donโ€™t have but the truth is that confidence is a state we all have access to.

Past experiences, criticism, trauma, or even the subtle messages weโ€™ve absorbed over time can shape the way we see ourselves and our level of confidence.

If youโ€™ve ever felt like your self-esteem is low no matter how much you โ€œtry harder,โ€ youโ€™re not alone. So much of our self-belief lives in the subconscious mind, the part of us that runs quietly in the background, shaping our thoughts, behaviours, and patterns.

In hypnosis, we work directly with the subconscious, the place where old beliefs like โ€œIโ€™m not enoughโ€ or โ€œI always get it wrongโ€ were planted.

Instead of just trying to think differently (which often only scratches the surface), hypnotherapy helps to gently reframe and release those outdated stories, creating space for new, empowering ones to take root.

Through this process, clients often notice:

โœจ Greater self-trust โ€” less second-guessing, more inner steadiness
โœจ A softer inner voice โ€” kinder self-talk replacing constant criticism
โœจ The ability to set boundaries โ€” without guilt or fear of rejection
โœจ More courage to show up authentically โ€” in relationships, work, and everyday life

True confidence doesnโ€™t mean never feeling fear or doubt. It means knowing you can meet those feelings without letting them control you. Itโ€™s a quiet strength, a grounded sense of ๐‘ฐ ๐’‚๐’Ž ๐’†๐’๐’๐’–๐’ˆ๐’‰, ๐’†๐’™๐’‚๐’„๐’•๐’๐’š ๐’‚๐’” ๐‘ฐ ๐’‚๐’Ž.

Hypnotherapy helps you reconnect with that truth, not by forcing it, but by gently uncovering what was always there beneath the layers of doubt.

This year Iโ€™m making space for doing less.

We seem to have normalised overconsumption & overstimulation A walk isnโ€™t just a walk anymore, itโ€™s a podcast. A quiet moment in line becomes scrolling. Even meals are often accompanied by Netflix or YouTube.

We fill every gap, every pause, every breath of stillness. Yet this endless stream of stimulation leaves the mind no space to rest. No wonder so many of us, including me at times, feel scattered, burnt out, and unmotivated.

Stillness is where our nervous system recalibrates, our creativity returns, and our inner voice can finally be heard. This week I challenge you to go on a quiet walk without headphones or even your phone. It might surprise you to hear what your inner voice is telling you.

Nope - I canโ€™t read your mind.
And I definitely canโ€™t make you cluck like a chicken.

But I can guide you into a calm, focused state where change becomes possible.

If youโ€™ve ever been curious about hypnotherapy but felt unsure, youโ€™re not alone.
Forget the stage shows - real hypnotherapy is grounded, respectful, and surprisingly gentle.

Youโ€™re not asleep. Youโ€™re not out of control. Youโ€™re not being โ€œdone to.โ€
Youโ€™re fully present. Iโ€™m just the guide.

And when used well, it can help you shift patterns that once felt stuck.

If youโ€™ve got questions or want to know how this might work for you, send me a message. Iโ€™m always happy to chat.

Grounding is the practice of reconnecting with the natural world, whether that means walking barefoot on the grass, sitting with your back against a tree, or simply breathing deeply by the ocean. These small moments are far more than a nice idea, they are deeply restorative for the body and mind.

Research shows that spending time outdoors lowers cortisol levels, reduces inflammation, and supports immune function. Being close to the earthโ€™s natural frequencies helps regulate the nervous system, guiding us out of โ€œfight or flightโ€ and back into balance. Nature literally steadies us, slows our heart rate, and the body remembers what safety feels like.

Our culture often pushes us to stay busy and productive, to stay plugged in surrounded by screens and concrete and constant stimulation. Our bodies adapt to this pace for a time, yet our nervous system is always quietly longing for something simpler, of just the steady rhythm of the earth beneath our feet. It is easy to forget we are part of nature. We are not meant to be separate from it.

But beyond the science, grounding is also about presence. The outdoors invites us to notice the world with fresh eyes: the warmth of the sun on skin, the sound of leaves in the wind, the feeling of sand shifting underfoot. These simple sensations remind us to slow down, to soften, to come back to ourselves. Sometimes this is exactly the medicine we needed.

The next time you feel scattered or overwhelmed, try stepping outside. Let your feet touch the earth and let the natural world hold you and calm you.

Habits shift when the nervous system feels supported, not shamed or rushed. Not forced into submission.

If youโ€™ve tried to โ€œbe betterโ€ before and burned out, it wasnโ€™t because you lacked discipline. It was because your system needed care, not control.

This year, try asking yourself:

Thereโ€™s a quiet kind of courage in being the one who says, this stops with me.
When we start to untangle the patterns weโ€™ve inherited - patterns shaped by fear, silence, or survival - weโ€™re not just healing for ourselves. Weโ€™re reshaping whatโ€™s possible for those around us, and those who come next.

This weekโ€™s video is a reminder that healing isnโ€™t selfish. Itโ€™s legacy work.
And even the smallest shiftsโ€”pausing, softening, choosing differently - are acts of strength.

Something I noticed towards the end of 2025 were the amount of people making comments about how excited they were for the end of the year as if Januaryโ€™s arrival would bring something completely different.

You might have noticed it in yourself with an โ€œIโ€™ll be happy whenโ€ฆโ€ or โ€œI just need to get through this weekโ€ฆโ€

itโ€™s easy to want to look ahead, to wait for the next milestone, especially when things arenโ€™t exactly as you want them. Itโ€™s just that in doing so we miss the in small, ordinary moments full of deep beauty and connection.

When weโ€™re always chasing โ€œsomeday,โ€ we miss the beauty of โ€œtoday.โ€

It can be as simple as the warm cup of tea in the morning or the laugh you share. For me itโ€™s both along with the ocean breeze and the pause to breathe.

Shifting the narrative doesnโ€™t mean pretending everything is perfect. It means choosing to stop rushing, to be with the present moment - good, bad and ugly.

Because one day, youโ€™ll look back and realise these were the days you were waiting for. If we donโ€™t change the narrative, we risk wishing our lives away. As Iโ€™m moving fast towards the next half of my life, itโ€™s not something I wish to continue doing.

The start of the year can bring with it the temptation to add more habits, more practices and more expectations.

But what if instead of adding more we did less?

Some habits, pattern and behaviours once protected you. They helped you cope, survive, stay connected, stay safe. And now they may feel heavy or outgrown, and some may feel misaligned.

so as well as adding more, the new year provides us with an opportunity to let go of those habits, patterns or behaviours that no longer support you in this current evolution of life. Not necessarily forever, but certainly until they serve you again.

This year Iโ€™m having a clean out of patterns Iโ€™m ready to release. Iโ€™m starting the year only with the habits that currently serve me with purpose, and Iโ€™m letting go of the habits no longer serving me in this current state.

my subscribers get access to my visioning process to help them do just this. If you are not a subscriber but would like access, pop a โ€œYesโ€ in the chat!

Ps, Hazey and I started the year with some art. Iโ€™m not sure who had more fun her or Me. ๐Ÿคฃโค๏ธ
