Hypnotherapy is a technique that uses hypnosis to help people with various mental and physical health conditions. Hypnosis is a state of focused attention and relaxation that allows people to be more open to suggestions and coping skills. Whilst the effectiveness of hypnotherapy varies depending on the individual and the condition, some people and some issues do appear to be more responsive to hypnosis than others. Today, I'll be sharing some of my observations from the last decade, with respect to who (and what) can respond well to hypnosis.

Free 8 hour theta binaural beats audio track
Theta binaural beats are sounds that can help you enter a state of deep relaxation or light sleep. They may also help you reduce anxiety, enhance creativity, and achieve a hypnotic state. Theta binaural beats are created by playing two tones with slightly different frequencies, one in each ear, through headphones. The difference between the frequencies should be between 4 and 8 Hz, which is the range of theta brain waves. Theta brain waves are associated with the lighter stages of sleep or the transition from waking to sleeping3.

How I got my weight and diabetes under control
If you've met me you'll have noticed that I'm overweight. I really hate the 'O' word (obese), so I'll stick to using 'fat' if that's ok. So, I'm fat, but what you may not know is that 2 years ago I was 30kg heavier. However, I've gone through a number of lifestyle changes, which I used my hypnotherapy skills to achieve the following goals: I wanted to reduce my weight and have my diabetes under good control, so that I could get my chronic pain under control. So, I completed an 8 week weight management programme, and managed to lose 30kg since starting the course. I'm still losing weight too, just more slowly...and more sustainably...than I've ever done before. My A1c is down to just 51, from 95 and I'm now stopping some medication as my weight continues to reduce. It feels amazing … [Read more...] about How I got my weight and diabetes under control

Hypnosis myths and a free audio download
It’s no secret that there are many misconceptions regarding hypnosis. Between stage shows where the hypnotist has people strutting around like chickens or forgetting their own name, to believing they’re the King and able to speak a Martian language. None of it shows hypnotherapy in a positive light. So today I’d like to help reduce some of the misconceptions, starting with these 3 commonly spouted myths. 1. You are not asleep when you’re in hypnosis. You’re actually right at the junction where you’re asleep and awake. FYI you’re in this same state just as you wake up and just before you fall asleep. 2. You go into hypnosis many, many times in your day. For example, when you’re reading a really good book, watching a great TV show, and when you’re driving a familiar route. 3.
