Are you living the life you dreamed?

Are you stuck in a rut?

How can hypnosis and life coaching help you achieve your dreams?

Are you living your life to it’s full potential? Or do you feel you have more to give?

Obviously most high flyers have executive coaches weekly or monthly to constantly keep them in tip top mental condition, working smart not hard, while it’s amazing if you can do this, you don’t need to have a constant life coach to change your life dramatically, you can do a six week course and learn all the basics.

Have you ever watched the film Limitless where a small pill helps Bradley Cooper access the 80% of our brain that we don’t use, it’s one of my favourite films and always reminds me of the power of coaching and hypnosis.

Ok so you’re not going to be able to learn a language overnight like Bradley does in the film, but you can become the best version of yourself possible and make dramatic progress in life in just one year.

We’ve all had those days where we get so much done, think for a moment when you find out an unexpected guest is about to call how much cleaning you can get done in an hour? Think about the days where everything seems to ‘go right’ and you achieve so much, those days where you’re’ firing on all cylinders’ Hypnosis can make everyday a 100% day!

Consider today you decide to get up 30 minutes early 3 times a week to exercise and reduce your calories by 100 per day, not a huge change but in a years’ time you could have transformed your body completely. In contrast think about have a bar of chocolate a day and stopping exercise, over a year your body and health will deteriorate considerably. My point here is that small changes to our daily routine over a period of time make a huge difference to our lives. Hypnosis can make this behaviour your new habit!

Imagine having the courage to go out there and take risks, or follow that dream, again hypnosis can give you that courage.

Did you know if you know all it takes to become an expert in your given profession is to read a book a week, this would make you in the top 10% in your field? You don’t read? That’s not great, but imagine listening to an audio book whilst you’re commuting, at the gym or walking the dog, then it’s easily done!

There are so many ways in which small changes in habit can make huge differences in our lives, imagine being the best possible version of you, all those thoughts of “oh I’ve always wanted to….” becoming a reality with life coaching. Be a winner at life; learn the habits of the successful and the achievers.

The question isn’t can you afford coaching, the question should be can you afford not to? If you had started last year imagine where you might be now, promotion, working for yourself? Living your dream! Don’t delay start today!

Just as a sports coach enable athletes to hone themselves into the fastest, strongest, most tactical competitors in their disciplines, life coaching helps people from all professional and personal backgrounds improve their strengths and build upon their weaknesses to make them the best version of themselves and make most of their lives.

Life coaching has come a long way since the days of time management and positive mental attitude, the people that are out there succeeding in life all do so due to following a formula for success, what makes you different from Lord Sugar or Richard Branson? You very well may be better educated, more attractive, more knowledgeable on certain subjects, but what do they have that you don’t? The answer is nothing, they just work differently to less successful people, they only have 24 hours in day, 7 days in a week. We all have the ability in us, it’s a question of whether firstly you want it enough to change your daily routine and put in a little extra effort. If you do I can help you, you don’t need motivation, that comes from action and booking an appointment is all the only action you will need today!

The first step in improving your life, is raising your standards.

Everyone sets their own standards in life, the amount you earn, the area where you live, the type of car you drive, your level of education. We all have a standard we are not willing to drop below. Think about it, if you have never challenged yourself or improved yourself, your income, physical appearance, fitness has always been roughly the same.

On occasion we decide to change that standard, how often depends on how much we are willing to challenge ourselves.

So how do we raise our standards? You’re not going to get more, or improve your life in any measurable way by simply thinking you deserve more. You need to improve yourself.

If you could see yourself doing your bosses job, find out what’s involved (it may be more than you originally thought) Ask if you can help with their work load, if you know the job requires a skill you don’t have, learn it, so instead of going to the interview with an attitude of I’m willing to learn, you’ve already learnt it, be one step ahead.

You are your greatest asset, you attract what you deserve, if you want to attract something different change, up your game, learn more, do more, take more chances, be more and then and only then can you have more!

Confidence comes from 4 things: being relaxed, being prepared, your thoughts and actions.

Relax

We are all confident around our close friends and family, because we are relaxed, so taking the time to de-stress yourself, or relax your mind and body before any anxiety-provoking event is essential.

You need your mind and body need to recognise when it is holding tension and how to let go of it, once you know this and have practiced relaxation, you will know how to sense it and create it.

Prepare

Preparing for situations is another key to being confident, making sure you have an idea, what you will say or do, if you are performing or presenting make sure you know your material, so that you could perform it with any distraction. If it’s a social situation that worries you, have an idea of topics you’d talk about, maybe have a story about something that happened that day, or on your journey there to break the ice.

Good quality thoughts

Thoughts are our guidance, so thinking is the most important factor, so it’s paramount you have good quality thoughts, going into a situation thinking ‘oh no this is going to be awful, I won’t know what to say, what if I can’t speak’ is NOT going to help.
Make sure your thoughts are positive, think (even though you might not believe it) I am confident, I have got this, I know what I’m going to say and if anything crops up I will deal with this, and say it with emotion.

We program our minds by statements and fantasies/movies we play in our mind, if you imagine the worst scenario then that’s what you are programming your mind and body for. Start programming your mind for success by imaging yourself being confident in every situation, take a few minutes every day to daydream about the confident you, or if you have an event or performance, imagine it going well, you being confident and doing it perfectly, imagine from a viewer and from your own point of view.

Do you know that mental practice is as effective as actual practice? so start your mental practice today and imagine the new confident you.

Act

Your mind and body are in constant communication, if your mind recognises the body doing something it will back it up, therefore if you stand up straight take a deep breath in the mind suddenly catches on, as if to say ok somethings happening, get ready.

Change your physiology, stand walk and talk like you have confidence, take a deep breath puff out your chest stand tall, talk slowly and clearly, make eye contact.

Food phobia or Selective eating disorder(SED) or Avoidant/Restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) treatment

Food phobia or Selective eating disorder(SED) or Avoidant/Restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is a very common problem, I have treated hundreds on clients in the past year and eating disorders seem to be on the rise.

Selective eating disorder is actually recognised as a valid disorder and is now listed in the 5th addition of the Diagnostic and statistic manual of mental disorders (DSM-5) Which your GP would refer to.

Fussy eaters report an inability to eat or swallow certain foods, sometimes whole food groups can be avoided, like sauces, or veg, some are avoided based on texture or colour.

Most sufferers experience anxiety towards the avoided food groups, for fear of gaging, being sick or even not being able to get rid of the taste.

Most fussy eaters maintain a healthy weight, although in severe cases sufferers lose vast amounts of weight, some sufferers of selective eating disorder have nutrition deficiency and can have a low immune system.

Children tend to stick to familiar foods chicken and chips.

Treatment:

The good news is that Food phobias or Selective eating disorders are fairly easy to remedy.

The most successful treatment for Selective eating disorders are systematic desensitisation mixed with hypnotherapy.

The key is to take small manageable steps, to introduce the problem food/foods into the diet:

If the problem food is broccoli

The first step maybe to have broccoli on a plate next to the plate you’re eating from, step 2 would be to have it on the side of the plate, step 3 maybe to have it touching the food, step 4 mash a tiny piece of broccoli into some other food, you would continue these steps, constantly moving forward until there were no issues.

In the case selective eating disorder in children, rewarding them for the successful completion of each step.

Relaxation is vital in children and adults, to reduce the level of anxiety involved, hypnotherapy to relax and lower or remove the gag reflex and feelings of anxiety and sickness.

I have worked with clients with a whole host of food phobias, including foods with skin on, fear of beans, sauces, vegetables.

After just one session clients leave feeling relaxed and motivated to start the process, feeling in control, they go on to try a variety of new foods, some are completely cured after one session, some start trying new foods, progress can be rapid or slow and steady.

Today I saw a gentleman diagnosed by his Doctor as suffering with stress, depression and anxiety. He suffered crippling pain, headaches, stomach aches, and pain all over his body, with no physiological problems, it had been put down as a psychosomatic issue.

Therefore his pain was caused by his mental state and let me tell you he was in a state. I asked him what he wanted and he proceeded to tell me what he didn’t want. I corrected him and asked him what he did want, he said to be happy, I asked him what happiness looked like and he told me what happiness didn’t look like. This told me that part of the problem was his quality of thoughts.

He described a black whole filled with pain and desperation, he had lost all control of his thoughts, it was although a black cloud was following him and everything was dark. He said it’s as though he was in a cold bath and the power had gone out. He spent every minute sat in darkness, he didn’t watch TV or do anything other than stare at the floor.

Depression is usually caused by the fact we aren’t living the life we imagined, his expectation and reality were not aligned. Sometimes life doesn’t go the way we hoped, If we then start to run the pity program of “why me’ or “this kind of stuff always happens to me” or “It’s just my luck” we are on a downward spiral of doom and gloom. Guess what doom and gloom brings, more ‘bad luck’

I see people every day moaning about the world and wondering why all the bad stuff happens to them. I’m familiar with it because that used to be me.

A few things needed to change with this client. He needed a huge kick up the metaphorical bum:

Attitude

His attitude needed a revamp, I said if you leave here and miss your bus I bet you’ll think ‘that’s just my luck’ ‘why me?’ ‘Nothing goes right for me’ he laughed. So we used humour to challenge  those thoughts I made him laugh and we hard rewired his attitude (using hypnosis) So now every time he tries to attend the pity party he gets rerouted to the laughter party instead.

Focus

His focus was internal, he was constantly scanning for pain or shortness of breath to signify a panic attack, so I rerouted his focus using hypnosis, he now focusses on the beauty in everything he sees, even the beauty of a leaf. You see depression cannot reside at the same time as joy. So the more joy he sees around him the less he can feel depression.

Goals

We also discussed his future, where he hoped he might be. I had to challenge some negative belief patterns he was running about his academic ability. After he agreed he can learn, (as we all can at a different rate) he decided he wanted to study. So one easy manageable step was for him to research what was needed to start a course. I didn’t send him out there to go take a course, (as that would trigger his anxiety) just to find out what was needed.

With these steps taken my client will start to feel more joy this week, he will start thinking about his future, connect again with his dreams and ambitions, start to see the world as a brighter happier place. This is just week one, imagine what changes we will make in week two!
