WHAT IS HYPNOTHERAPY?
Hypnotherapy is a powerful, effective, and gentle tool that can help you to access your subconscious mind. Using hypnosis can help you to manage stress and anxiety, improve your confidence, deal with relationship issues, and far more.
Do you find yourself repeating the same behaviour, although you’ve promised yourself that next time you’ll do something else entirely? Perhaps you feel consumed by anxiety, stress, or fear in situations that you “should” be able to handle? If this is the case, you are in good company. After all, changing your behaviour without help can be difficult.

So, can hypnotherapy help you?
Hypnosis can help to access your subconscious mind. That powerful, creative, and just out-of-reach part which accounts for 95% of human behaviour. So, working with a certified hypnotherapist can be a gentle and effective way of overcoming the issues you are ready to leave behind. I provide a safe, confidential and welcoming space so that you can explore without fear of judgement.

WHAT DOES HYPNOTHERAPY FEEL LIKE?
During a hypnotherapy session, you will be guided into a state of deep focus. In this state, your subconscious mind is more freely accessible and ready to accept beneficial suggestions. Generally, people find hypnosis deeply relaxing, however being relaxed is not necessary for a successful session. Some people find a hypnotic state to be similar to meditation. However, it is generally much quicker to enter this state as you are guided by the hypnotherapist’s voice.

Making the decision to undertake therapy of any kind can bring up a number of emotions. For some people it’s scary, sometimes exciting, and often it can bring up a mixture of emotions. I appreciate that undertaking therapy can feel like a big step into the unknown. Keeping this in mind, it’s really important that, as well as finding a qualified therapist, you choose to work with somebody you feel comfortable with and trust.

Anna Vahrman, is an accredited hypnotherapist and provides hypnotherapy online or here at the centre and offers a free 15 minute consultation anna@forthandbloomtherapy.co.uk

Did you know an estimated 14% of women have a phobia of childbirth (known as Tokophobia)? It leads to a huge amount of anxiety during pregnancy, or choosing not to get pregnant at all.

My article on Hypnotherapy Directory explores how hypnotherapy can help overcome this common condition.

I was out for a walk on one of our weird, unseasonally sunny days recently and I came across a tree that was completely full of red admiral butterflies.

It made me think of a practice which is useful when you’re feeling stuck inside your own head or a bit down.

1) Go outside (even if just for two minutes).

2) Find a “thing” you can focus on (this can be anything, a fallen leaf, an insect, a pebble) and spend a moment or two really paying attention to it. If it’s a pebble, check out the tiny patch of mud on its surface, if it’s a blade of grass notice how it is a very slightly different shade of green to the other blades of grass around it. And that’s it. This practice can be really helpful when you are feeling anxious, or if you have racing thoughts.
