Yesterday, Saturday, 1st November 2025, I attended an excellent training course with the John Dewar School of Hypnotherapy on the subject of Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR), incorporating Hypnotherapy & Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP).

I wholeheartedly recommend the John Dewar School of Hypnotherapy to anyone interested in exploring Hypnotherapy. John Dewar is a fantastic resource for current Hypnotherapists looking to expand their skills for their practice or refresh their existing knowledge.

The Path Forward

If you've recognised yourself in any of these posts, please know that chronic stress isn't something you have to live with.

Your nervous system learned to respond this way, which means it can learn a different response. This isn't about 'thinking positive' or 'just relaxing'—it's about working with your body's natural ability to heal and recalibrate.

Hypnotherapy and complementary therapies work with your unconscious mind and nervous system directly, helping to shift patterns that talk therapy alone might struggle to reach. It's not magic—it's working with how your brain and body actually function.

You deserve to feel calm in your own body. You deserve to sleep well, think clearly, and respond to life's challenges without being constantly overwhelmed.

If you're ready to explore a different approach to managing stress, I'm here to help. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is ask for support.

Living with chronic stress isn't a badge of honour, it's just unnecessary suffering.

Stress and Motivation

Feeling completely unmotivated despite having loads to do? That's stress, not laziness.

When you're chronically stressed, your body eventually stops responding to the stress hormones that usually drive you forward. It's like constantly pressing the accelerator until the engine floods, and then nothing happens.

This shutdown is actually your body's way of forcing you to rest. But because we live in a culture that values productivity above wellbeing, we interpret it as failure rather than as the protective mechanism it actually is.

If you're struggling with motivation, more pressure and self-criticism won't help. In fact, it typically makes things worse. What's needed is genuine restoration and a recalibration of your stress response.

You're not lazy. You're not unmotivated. You're stressed and your body is trying to protect you the only way it knows how—by making you stop.

The Comparison Trap

Social media has brought a whole new layer of stress, often with us constantly comparing ourselves to everyone else's seemingly perfect lives.

Your brain doesn't distinguish between real threats and social threats. When you feel like you're 'falling behind' or not measuring up, your body responds with the same stress hormones as if you were facing physical danger.

The Comparison Trap

Social media has brought a whole new layer of stress, as many people are constantly comparing themselves to others' seemingly perfect lives.

Your brain doesn't distinguish between real threats and social threats. When you feel like you're 'falling behind' or not measuring up, your body responds with the same stress hormones as if you were facing physical danger.

This comparison-driven stress can be especially tricky because it feels like it's all in our own heads—like we're blaming ourselves for it. But in reality, it's actually being gently reinforced by external influences we've come to see as normal.

If you notice your stress levels spike after scrolling through social media, that's not a coincidence. Your nervous system is genuinely responding to perceived social threat.

Stress and Emotional Regulation

Have you ever snapped at someone over something trivial, then felt awful about it? Stress dramatically reduces your ability to regulate emotions.

When your stress bucket is already full, small frustrations can cause an overflow. It's not that you're a bad person or 'too sensitive', your nervous system is maxed out and has no capacity left to handle additional challenges calmly.

This is why people often describe feeling like they're 'not themselves' when stressed. You're not, you're operating from your survival brain rather than your rational, compassionate self.

The people around you might tell you to 'just calm down', but if your nervous system is in overdrive, that's physiologically difficult to do without the right tools and support.

Learning to regulate your stress response isn't about suppressing emotions. It's about giving your nervous system the capacity to respond thoughtfully rather than reactively.

🏆 WORLD RECORD ALERT: 733 Pull-Ups in One Hour! 💪🇦🇺

At just 32 years old, Jade Henderson, a fearless Australian police officer, has made history by completing an unbelievable 733 pull-ups in one hour, officially earning a place in the Guinness World Records! 🔥

She smashed the previous record of 725 set by Eva Clarke in 2016 — proving that true strength isn’t just physical, it’s mental and emotional resilience at its peak.

Despite suffering a bicep tear during training, Jade refused to quit. Instead, she turned pain into power, determination into dominance, and came back to achieve the impossible. 💥

This record isn’t just about numbers — it’s about the unbreakable spirit of a woman who showed the world what relentless perseverance looks like. 👑

The Perfectionism-Stress Connection

Perfectionism isn't about having high standards. It's often a stress response in disguise.

When you feel fundamentally unsafe or 'not good enough', perfectionism becomes a way to try to control your environment and prevent criticism or rejection. The problem? It's exhausting and ultimately impossible.

This drives a particular type of chronic stress, one where you're never allowed to truly rest because there's always something that could be better, someone who might judge you, or a standard you haven't met.

Many people don't realise their stress isn't coming from having too much to do. It's coming from believing that who they are isn't acceptable unless everything they do is flawless.

Addressing this pattern requires more than time management techniques. It involves changing the deep-seated beliefs driving the perfectionism in the first place.

You don't need to be perfect to be worthy. You already are.

Stress and Memory Problems

Misplacing your keys, forgetting appointments, and struggling to concentrate aren't signs you're losing your mind. They are signs you're stressed.

Chronic stress floods your brain with cortisol, which actually impairs the hippocampus (your brain's memory centre). This is why 'brain fog' is such a common complaint amongst stressed individuals.

Your brain isn't broken. It's overwhelmed and prioritising immediate survival over long-term memory formation. When you're in fight-or-flight mode, remembering where you put your glasses isn't exactly a priority for your nervous system.

The encouraging news is that when stress levels come down, cognitive function typically improves quite dramatically. Many of my clients report clearer thinking and better memory as one of the first improvements they notice.

You're not imagining it, and it's not just 'getting older'. Your brain reacts to stress, and the good news is that your stress response can be changed.
