Such amazing feedback from Dylan who was able to quit the habit of va**ng after only 2 sessions! 💪

If you're struggling to quit a habit of your own, hypnotherapy works wonders by bypassing the conscious mind and getting straight to the subconscious - this is where I can work with you to change the beliefs, thoughts and associations needed!

I thought it was about time to repost some segments of the interview I had with Robin from The Kiwi Heart some time ago. Here we are discussing the importance of language, just in time for the season of 'shoulding'!

Remember to take moments when you can to become aware of the script in your mind! Changing it can make all the difference! 🤔

So what IS Hypnosis? 🧐

14/11/2025

Discussing the chemicals in our brains and how they work is something that I work on with all of my clients. Knowledge is power! 🧠

This week let's focus on Serotonin!

Serotonin is a chemical that acts as a neurotransmitter and hormone, primarily known for its role in regulating mood, but also influencing sleep, digestion, and blood clotting. It is produced mostly in the digestive tract and brain, and low levels have been linked to conditions like depression and anxiety. Serotonin works by carrying signals between nerve cells and also helps to narrow blood vessels to aid in blood clotting.

Being in nature can increase serotonin levels through exposure to sunlight and fresh air as well as the microorganisms in soil. Increased levels can boost mood and reduce stress.
Enjoy this video I took while at Wainui Falls💧🌱

Nature is one of the easiest ways to increase your levels of serotonin. Comment below your favorite natural spaces! 👇

It’s important to understand our emotions and how they are affecting our wellbeing as well as how to manage them in healthy ways. As a clinical hypnotherapist & holistic counselor, I work with people everyday to improve their emotional regulation. This week, let's focus on sadness.

Sadness is a normal, temporary human emotion usually caused by loss or disappointment. It’s a natural response, often to things like the loss of a loved one or a relationship breakdown. It can manifest physically as a feeling of heaviness, lethargy, fatigue, or trouble sleeping and concentrating.

No one wants to feel stuck in their sadness. Something that can help is learning about how sadness serves you. For example, sadness:

- Helps to decrease your energy expenditure so you have the time to mourn, and process the events and feelings
- Often creates connections as when you are sad you reach out to others that you may not have before
- It can help teach you about your values and strengthen them if needed

If you’d like support in managing your emotions, book in your FREE 15-minute consultation with me here 👇

If your feelings of sadness are intense and prolonged, this may be a sign of depression & require a visit to your GP.

Take care 🙏

Back from Melbourne ✨

I’ve just returned from the Australian Hypnotherapy Conference — a great chance to connect with others in the field, gain new perspectives, and be reminded of how much I love the work I do. 💫

Outside of the conference, I made the most of my time in Melbourne — a full day relaxing at the thermal park with yoga, saunas, and cold plunge pools, a night at a musical, cheering at the soccer in the rain, and having way too much fun at the Hijinx Hotel (and so much more!). 🧖‍♀️🎭⚽💦

It was such a great mix of learning, laughter, and connection — especially spending time with my cousin and fellow hypnotherapist. ❤️ Feeling refreshed and ready to bring that renewed energy back into my sessions!
