Neuroscience News from SFTA

Music and trance: Why sound changes how we feel
Tufts University recently explored how music can help us slip into trance-like states of focus and calm. Students listening intentionally with headphones reported time slowing down, inner chatter quieting and noticeable emotional or physical reactions. The research shows it isn’t the music alone that creates trance, but the right conditions plus focused attention.

🌀 New medical research highlights the power of hypnotherapy
A recent study from the University of Miami found that hypnotherapy significantly reduced severe nerve pain in the eye when drops, medication and even surgery had failed. After a short course of guided relaxation with calming sensory suggestions, patients reported lower pain and anxiety.

🌿 SFTA Hypnotherapy Training
In Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, we use the same principle. When focus, intention and sound come together, the brain becomes more open to change. This approach doesn’t just support emotional wellbeing — it can also help reduce the experience of chronic pain. That’s why every SFTA client receives a relaxing hypnosis track to encourage calm, clarity and movement towards their preferred future, including comfort and relief from pain.

Curious what our graduates say about our in person SFTA Hypnotherapy Training course?

One of the most common reflections is how transformative the learning experience feels from day one.

They often mention how the hands on practice boosts their confidence far more than they expected and how supported they feel throughout the journey.

Many share that the group atmosphere becomes a real source of motivation. They enjoy being surrounded by like minded people, having space to ask questions and watching their skills grow with each weekend.

We are always honoured to hear how the course has helped them step into a new chapter of their professional lives. Their stories remind us why this work matters.

What will you learn in Module 2 of our SFTA in person Hypnotherapy Training course?

This module introduces the skills and science that shape confident therapeutic practice. Here are three key areas you will explore and practise together.

Scaling
You will learn how to use simple scales to help clients notice progress, identify what is going well and build momentum. Scaling strengthens motivation and helps highlight the small steps that lead to lasting change.

The miracle question
You will discover how to use this classic Solution Focused question in a clear and gentle way. It helps clients imagine their preferred future and connect with what life will look like when things are moving in the right direction.

Neuroscience of change
You will dive into what happens in the brain when clients shift from threat to safety, including the role of the limbic system, the prefrontal cortex and the Default Mode Network. You will learn how Solution Focused techniques support neuroplasticity, allowing clients to create new pathways that reinforce confidence, calm and clarity.

Module 2 blends practical skills with clear scientific understanding so you feel confident using these tools with clients.

Our next in-person courses begin in 2026. To learn more, visit www.sfta.co.uk
or call 0345 257 0056. We would love to welcome you.

🧠🏋️‍ Neuroscience News: Strength training strengthens your brain!

Did you know that lifting weights doesn’t just build muscle — it also helps protect your brain from dementia?

Recent research from UNICAMP in Brazil shows that just two strength-training sessions per week can:

✅ Increase brain-protecting proteins
✅ Improve memory and cognition
✅ Support the areas of the brain linked to learning and long-term memory

That means something as simple as bodyweight exercises, resistance bands, or light dumbbells could be a powerful tool for your brain health — especially as we age.

And the best part? You don’t have to become a gym addict. Just two sessions a week is enough to make a measurable difference.

🧠 Muscles and memory — more connected than we think.

This training doesn’t just prepare you to help others. It helps you too.

Many of our students come to SFTA to become hypnotherapists, but they’re often surprised by just how much they gain personally along the way.

Throughout the course, they start to feel calmer, more in control, and more confident. They learn powerful tools for emotional resilience, managing stress, and building positive habits—not just for clients, but for themselves.

And it doesn’t stop there. Families notice the difference, too. Relationships improve, home life becomes more peaceful, and loved ones often comment on the positive changes.

It’s not just professional development. It’s a personal transformation.

🧠 If you’re ready to learn how to support others and experience your own growth in the process—our next course starts April 2026 around the UK.
