How About Hypnotherapy

“You can get excited about the future. The past won’t mind.” Hillary DePiano

My puzzle page was perfectly aligned with hypnotherapy today.

In hypnotherapy, we gently shift focus away from old patterns and towards the possibilities ahead.
Your past does not define you but the choices you make today shape your future.

A brighter future is waiting and it’s okay to feel excited about it.

I’ve been thinking about popping along to this charity event today not just for the bargains (though there seem to be plenty!), but because little outings like this can be such a gentle lift for the mind.

Browsing gifts, seeing the colourful stalls, sharing a few kind words with stall holders. These small moments can create a quiet ripple of positivity that carries through the rest of the day.

And if you’re looking for something light, meaningful, and good for your mental wellbeing, supporting a local charity can be a lovely way to weave a bit of connection and kindness into your morning.

Here’s to simple activities that brighten the mind and soften the day.

Have a lovely weekend

What are you up to this weekend?

✨ Visiting somewhere new?
😌 Relaxing after a busy week?
💼 Working?
🐾 Enjoying some cuddles with your pets?

Today, my sister and I tried out a different run club… which meant missing the usual park run!

We joined a Sweaty Betty x GAIL’s collaboration run, and it did not disappoint. A change of scenery, a lovely crowd, and a chance to get those feel good chemicals flowing… plus some goodies at the end certainly helped boost the mood! 🎁

Sometimes stepping outside your usual routine is all you need to reset, energise, and reconnect with yourself.

Hope your weekend brings you something that lifts your spirits too ✨

Stressed?

It’s a natural response, your body’s way of helping you deal with challenges. But when we stay stuck in stress for too long, it can start to affect our sleep, mood, focus, and even our physical health.

Hypnotherapy can help you find healthy outlets for stress, calm your mind, and empty that stress bucket before it overflows.

Today I went for a run in the rain 🌧️ not because it was ideal weather, but because the house next door is having renovations, and I could feel myself getting tense. The fresh air and movement helped me reset and let go of that built-up tension.

It’s a reminder that small actions, taken with intention, can make a big difference to how we feel.

✨You Are Enough ✨

Fighting the daily pressures of work, family, pets, and everything else life brings your way?

Feeling overwhelmed?

It’s easy to forget, but you are enough just as you are.

Hypnotherapy can help you quiet the noise, reduce everyday stress, and rediscover a sense of calm and balance.

Great first day yesterday helping out with Gemma - Coaching Through Life weekend retreat! Such a lovely group of people and an inspiring atmosphere already.

Today is our first full day here, and we’re getting ready for a day filled with reflection, connection, and personal growth.

Feeling grateful to be part of something so meaningful 💚

When you’re trying to draw a brain for a hypnotherapy client… but it ends up looking a little too Freudian 😂🧠

On the bright side, laughter actually boosts memory!

When we laugh, our brain releases dopamine the same “feel-good” chemical that strengthens learning and memory connections. So maybe that questionable doodle wasn’t such a bad idea after all…

REVIEW:

I’m so proud of my client! In only a short number of sessions, they made such incredible progress. Hearing how well they did with their scans was truly heart warming.

If you’d like to see how hypnotherapy can help you achieve your goals, I’d love to hear from you.

‘Many thanks to Melissa for helping me with my longstanding claustrophobia, thus enabling me to tolerate the scans necessary during my cancer treatment in a way I couldn’t before. She takes time to explain everything clearly and patiently, and is empathetic and encouraging. I now feel much calmer and more positive, with a better understanding and the tools to be able to deal with daily pressures and stresses with confidence. I wouldn’t hesitate to call upon her again should I need further hypnotherapy.’

☀️ Taking a moment by the sea reminds me how important it is to pause, breathe, and recharge.

When life feels overwhelming, even a few minutes of calm can make a difference. #

👉 What’s your favourite way to relax and reset when things get stressful?

🌧️ Just taking a quiet moment to watch the rain fall before my next hypnotherapy session. Thankful to be warm and cozy inside.

🎨 Painting How I Can Help – Flying Phobia ✈️

Although my painting isn’t perfect… neither is the thought of a holiday when it comes with a dreaded plane flight!

Hypnotherapy can help with phobias such as flying by gently retraining the brain’s response, reducing anxiety, and creating a calmer, more positive mindset.

With a solution-focused approach, we work together to:
✨ Lower the “fight or flight” response
✨ Build confidence and control
✨ Reframe unhelpful thought patterns
✨ Focus on the positive aspects of your journey

So that instead of fear holding you back, you can feel calmer and more in control when taking to the skies. 🌍💙
