MONDAY MOTIVATION

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain".

I have a wonderful chat last night on my Sunday self care series and this quote was mentioned. It is so true. Be grateful for what you have and whatever life throws at you. You can learn from every experience, and become stronger.

Have a great Monday.

February a new month! A new month can bring reflections and what you might like to change or work on…

The nights are getting lighter, the bulbs and buds are starting to come up. There are signs of spring. Looking forward to what February will bring. Everyday is an opportunity.

A really great week for Simply Hypnotherapy and its clients.

I have signed two clients off this week, which means that they have made amazing progress and no longer need my help and support. They have learnt about themselves and have the tools that they need in order for them to continue to live the life they truly deserve.

I am working with a range of clients at the moment, my youngest client is age 11 and my oldest is in their 50's.

Subjects I have worked on this week are: weight loss, anxiety, self esteem, grief, overwhelm, lack of confidence, anger. I love the fact that my job is so very varied everyday and I get to meet amazing clients, that trust me to help them in their darkest times.

As always all client sessions are tailored and individual to them and we always are working towards progress and for them to achieve their therapy goals. It really does blow me away every time when my clients make progress, I am always proud of them and how far they have come on their journey.

If you, or know anyone that needs some help and support to help them move forward, then I am currently taking bookings.

6 YEARS IN BUSINESS

January is my month to celebrate my business birthday. During the last 6 years I have navigated many things. Helped 100's of clients and learnt so much about myself as a therapist and learnt so much about business.

I have made so many business friends which inspire me to do more and keep working on my business.

I have hosted my own networking event.

I am the co founder for The Boobie Brunch, which is a community to support women going through their breast cancer journey.

I have passed many CPD courses and starting training as a counselling and psychotherapist.

I have created downloadable guides to 'Weight loss and Mindset', 'Stop Smoking', and 'Inner child'

I have won 6 awards and received so many amazing reviews from my lovely clients.

I have worked on many subjects with clients and worked with ages 11 up to 75.

I am looking forward to see what the next 6 years!!!

OVER THINKING
The Difference Between Helpful Problem Solving And Harmful Overthinking.
Why did my boss say that?

How should I strike up a conversation?

What if I talked too much at the meeting yesterday?

These are examples of the types of questions that might bombard you when you're overthinking. And rather than reducing your uncertainty, overthinking can keep you stuck.

It’s easy to confuse overthinking with problem-solving and you might convince yourself that, over-analysing and worrying is somehow productive, but these actions cause you to dwell on the problem at hand, prevent you from developing a solution and wreaks havoc on your mood.

🔹Things that may help :

🔹 Notice when you are stuck in your head.
Overthinking can become such a habit that you don’t even recognise when you’re doing it. Start paying attention to the way you think so you can become aware of the problem.

🔹Keep the focus on problem-solving.
Dwelling on your problems isn’t helpful - but looking for solutions is. If it’s something you have some control over, consider how you can prevent the problem, or challenge yourself to identify potential solutions.

🔹 Challenge your thoughts.
Your mind generally veers towards the negative road. Acknowledge that your thoughts may be exaggeratedly negative or unhealthy.

🔹 Schedule time for reflection.
Ruminating on problems or decisions for long periods of time isn’t productive, but brief reflection can be helpful.

🔹 Practice mindfulness skills.
It’s impossible to mull over yesterday or worry about tomorrow when you’re living in the present. Mindfulness will help you become more aware of being in the here and now.

🔹 Do something else.
Change where you are focusing your attention.

My online and in person sessions use clinical hypnotherapy to change things subconsciously and consciously, helping you towards a calmer outlook.

SUCCESS

When your client that has completed your 'SLIM VIA HYPNOSIS' programme get's in touch to let you know how they are doing is an amazing feeling.

This client has worked incredibly hard after many years of trying every fad diet you could imagine. Just by really understanding that all food is ok, it is about balance and creating a healthier lifestyle.

Taking time out for themselves to become more active is not only helping their waste line but also their own mental well being.

It is a journey one of which they have learnt loads so far and put into place all the things that they have learnt during their sessions with me.

CONFIDENCE

Did you know that you are born with complete confidence?

When we are born, we do not know any different. We have not had anyone or any circumstances to impact our confidence levels. We are completely confident when we are born and only have a fear of falling and loud noises.
Do you ever watch your children learn to crawl, walk, run, play etc? They are very determined and seem to have no fear.

It is only when we grow and experience different situations, circumstances and get influenced by our peers, compare ourselves to others, face failures, let downs and challenges.

We then learn to be less confident or to have less self belief.

Confidence and belief can shape us into to who we are and how our life will turn out. Our environment, experiences and our people that influence us.

When we believe in ourselves, we may have had an amazing supportive environment with great positive influencers, this in turn will have a positive impact on our confidence levels and our self belief.

The good thing about the things that we learn when we are growing up, is that we can also unlearn unhelpful behaviours ie: low self belief, lacking in confidence.

I am a therapist that wants you to grow and develop and become all the things that you were born with, complete confidence and complete self belief.
I would love to help you. So please get in touch.

HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

I have worked with many clients that have to come to me for help with weight loss and to create a healthier lifestyle.

I am not a nutritionist expert and what I offer is NOT A DIET.

✦I transform my clients to completely change their mindset on food.

✦Clients learn that food creates their mood, they learn that food is fuel for their body.

✦To have a better relationship with food, to understand that by eating in a more balanced and healthier way.

✦They are investing in themselves, they are investing in their mind and body to help them navigate any challenges they may face in the future.

✦They learn that movement does not have to be in a gym sweating, there are so many other options available.

✦They also learn to retrain their mindset on how they eat, why they eat and when they eat, and by doing this, will naturally help them to loose weight, loose inches, increase in energy, increase in confidence and so much more.

If you would like to know how I can help you with your relationship with food. Then get in touch.

SELF CARE TIPS
✦Self care means taking time to do things you enjoy. Usually, self-care involves everyday activities that you find relaxing, fun, or energizing. These activities could be as simple as reading a book, or as big as going on holiday.
✦Self care also means taking care of yourself. This means eating regular meals, getting enough sleep, caring for personal hygiene, and anything else that maintains good health.
✦Make self care a priority. There will always be other things to do, but don’t let these interrupt the time you set aside for self-care. Self care should be given the same importance as other responsibilities.
✦Set specific self care goals. It’s difficult to follow through with vague goals, such as “I will take more time for self-care”. Instead, try something specific, such as “I will walk for 30 minutes every evening after dinner”.
✦Make self care a habit. Just like eating one apple doesn’t eliminate health problems, using self care just once won’t have much effect on reducing stress. Choose activities that you can do often, and that you will stick with.
✦Set boundaries to protect your self care. You don’t need a major obligation to say “no” to others your self care is reason enough. Remind yourself that your needs are as important as anyone else’s.
✦A few minutes of self care is better than no self care. Set an alarm reminding you to take regular breaks, even if it’s just a walk around the block, or an uninterrupted snack. Oftentimes, stepping away will energize you to work more efficiently when you return.
✦Unhealthy activities don’t count as self care. Substance use, over-eating, and other unhealthy behaviors might hide uncomfortable emotions temporarily, but they cause more problems in the long run.
✦Keep up with self care, even when you’re feeling good. Doing so will keep you in a healthy routine. Plus, self care might be part of the reason why you’re feeling good!

What would you use hypnotherapy to change?

The first few months of a new year is all about change….. setting new goals, thinking about your year ahead

Stop drinking, smoking or screaming about spiders. Lose anxiety, lose weight and gain confidence.

You need to take one step forward, take back control, be happy, be confident, be free and be the new you.

Hypnotherapy is a great way to discover the new you, create new healthy habits and overcome lifetime fear and phobias!

I am taking bookings now. I would love to help you.

♦︎YOUR WILL POWER IS ONLY 5%♦︎

Did you know that your will to change, your WILL POWER comes from your conscious mind, which is only 5% of your total mind.
The urge to do the same old same, day in day out, (ie: your 'programming') comes from your subconscious mind, which makes up the other 95%

So you can 'will' yourself to change for as long as you can physically/emotionally/mentally handle it, then your willpower runs out, it's straight back to the good old subconscious programming.

Most of the programming in your subconscious has been there since childhood.

✳︎ This is because during childhood your mind is like a sponge, you are picking up all kinds of information from your environment that is helping you to understand life.

This information comes in consciously, then is stored subconsciously as 'BELIEFS' or 'PROGRAMMING' so that you can make room to store more things.

✓ Sometimes that programming is really helpful, like understanding social cues and remembering processes like tying your shoes.

✘ Other times it's less helpful, like believing your worth comes from your achievements, or that life has to be hard.

These beliefs, helpful or unhelpful, are shaping the way that you perceive life, influencing your thoughts and behaviour.

★ This is why hypnotherapy is such an amazing tool for personal growth, it allows us to connect directly with the subconscious mind to shift those beliefs and programming on a subconscious level.

If this resonates with you and you are interested in shifting limiting programming in your subconscious mind. Please get in touch. I would love to help.

Welcome to Simply Hypnotherapy

Hi I am Rachel, let me tell you a bit about myself. I am a very hard working Mummy to my gorgeous daughter Darcy. Having children really makes you reflect on life and put things into perspective. I had a bit of a reflection moment when I reached one of my milestone birthdays. I had been working in financial services for nearly 20 years, I felt like I was just existing and not really seeing the world for what it really was. I wanted to do something which I would get self satisfaction from and I really wanted to help people overcome their own personal challenges. Life is tough and pressured and many other things. I want to be the person that you feel you can come to, to help you through life’s everyday challenges. This is when I decided to have a complete career change and go back to the study books and this is how Simply Hypnotherapy was born.

I am a fully qualified hypnotherapist and I can help you overcome many concerns in a very comfortable, quiet and cosy environment. You can talk to me knowing that I will give you my full attention and we can work together to help you overcome whatever is troubling you. Please have a look a my page for a list of services that I can offer. If you cannot see what you are looking for then please contact me and I will be more than happy to discuss with you.
