This Valentine’s, some people are buying flowers.
Some are booking fancy dinners.
And some of us are lying on what looks like a bed of plastic Lego spikes… for relaxation.
Shakti mats:
✔️ feels intense
✔️ then oddly brilliant
✔️ your nervous system goes “oh… that’s better”
They’ve just released a Valentine’s bundle (mat + pillow + Wonderball), which is basically the middle aisle of Lidl GB… but for your back.
I use mine to switch off after work sometimes and calm a busy brain before bed.
Not romantic... but very effective.
If you fancy treating yourself (or someone you like enough to let them lie on spikes), I’ll pop the link in the comments with 20% off mats and an extra £5 off using my (affiliate) link.
Self-love. But make it slightly uncomfortable at first.

Your subconscious takes your words literally. When you say "my" anxiety, you're telling your brain it's a part of who you are. To change a pattern, you first have to separate yourself from it. Here is how we reframe identity in clinical hypnotherapy.

A little January reflection…
My diary has been full this month and already filling up February.
People choosing to kick habits, sleep better and live a little lighter.
That feels like a good sign for 2026.
Thank you to everyone who’s trusted me with their journey so far.

Did you know you enter a natural trance state every night? It's called the Hypnagogic state, and it’s the best time to manifest your goals and fix your mindset. Stop scrolling and start winning.

When leaders argue, nervous systems listen.
Take a break from the news today.
Your brain deserves a quiet moment too.

The secret to lasting change isn't changing what you DO; it's changing who you ARE. Shift your identity from a "smoker trying to quit" to a "non-smoker."

Tonight’s sky over Hayle is doing something quite extraordinary.
The aurora - reminding us that even familiar places can still surprise the nervous system in the best possible way.
Moments like this matter more than we realise. When the brain experiences awe, even briefly, it naturally shifts out of threat mode. Heart rate softens. Thoughts slow. Perspective widens.
No hypnotherapy session required tonight. Just looking up was enough. ✨

Do you feel like you're one "small thing" away from a breakdown? It’s not about the small thing—it’s about your stress capacity. Learn how the "Invisible Bucket" metaphor explains your mental health and why emptying the "old stuff" is the key to resilience.
Can your thoughts change your physical body? Take the Lemon Test with me and find out just how powerful your subconscious mind really is.

Storm Goretti closed my doors for four days and caused a fair bit of reshuffling.
Since reopening, I’ve had a steady flow of booking requests — from new people and familiar faces — which I’m genuinely grateful for.
One thing I want to be transparent about:
when you make a booking request online, I don’t always accept it automatically. Not because you’re asking at the wrong time — but because I space sessions carefully to make sure each one gets the attention it deserves.
If a slot isn’t quite right, I’ll usually come back with a suggested alternative a little further down the line. In my experience, things tend to work better when they’re not rushed.
If you’ve been affected by the storm rescheduling, thank you again for your patience.
And if you’re thinking ahead rather than needing something immediately, that’s often the best place to start.

Forget what you see in the movies. Hypnosis isn't about losing control—it's about gaining it. Think of me as the GPS, but you're always the driver.

Did you know your subconscious mind can't tell the difference between a real event and one that is vividly imagined? At Neil Cox Hypnotherapy, I use this biological "glitch" to help you heal, destress, and break habits. Your brain is the pharmacy; your thoughts are the prescription.

Training
Over many years I trained and qualified in reflexology, massage therapy and reiki healing. All therapies which in their own right were effective, but I always felt there was something missing. Finally, after a significant issue suffering with pain, I trained and qualified as a solution focused hypnotherapist with the prestigious CPHT in Plymouth. The Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma I obtained meets the ‘Learning Outcomes’ of the Hypnotherapy National Occupational Standards. Full details of accreditation. While CPHT is probably the most practical course in the country, that's not all. They encourage students to start practising from the first two days of the course onwards. Once qualified I was more than ready to go into successful practice.
Location
From this I have managed to set up a thriving practice delivering hypnotherapy in Bude, on the North Cornwall & Devon border. Since then, in 2020 and during the Covid-19 pandemic I relocated both home and business to a sleepy, quiet cottage near St Austell.
