This year we have just launched the random acts of kindness for 2023
An initiative that began a few years ago when I gifted a bunch of flowers and a coffee to someone struggling and going through a hard time. They sent me a message a few days later to thank me for such a kind gesture when they were going through a difficult time.
This month is really exciting for Hummingbird Hypnotherapy organising and sponsoring the Bourne Well Being Event.
This event is now in its sixth year and has raised a considerable amount of money for local charities within the area in that time.
The aim of these events Is to showcase a variety of different local businesses that support and boost well being. There are 21 stalls on the day plus the addition of booking a mini treatment.
Many people I speak to are interested in the work I do but don’t understand how it works. Still even now in the 21st century we have this common misconception of mind control or clucking like a chicken. Most of which is media driven and usually involves images from comedy sketches and stage hypnotism that is far from the therapeutic tool of hypnosis and psychotherapy, that is incorporated into solution focused clinical hypnotherapy. A phrase coined by a gentleman called David Newton. He has taken the best elements of CBT, NLP, SFBT and Hypnotherapy to bring a modern and up to date therapy. Supporting clients to move away from the past, process and gain confidence to support a more positive future.
Happy New Year… 2023 is slowly rolling itself in and it’s that time of year again where our socials are bombarded with ‘New year, new you!’ headlines, diets, goals and plans.
In the new year we should be supporting ourselves to slowly step into a new year and take our time to support where we are right now.
Ever noticed those people in life that just seem to have their shit together? They always seem to be on time, post amazing family photos on social media and always look like they know exactly what they are doing!
But we forget that these moments we see are fleeting. Just seconds in time.
When you think of Clinical Hypnotherapy you might think that it’s a therapy that is only suited to adults. In fact, Clinical hypnotherapy and its solution-focused benefits are suitable for both adults and children.
There is no denying that in today’s world we seem to have more responsibilities than ever before. Add to that the pressure to not only be ALL things to ALL people, but keep up self care, look and feel amazing, and you’ve got a recipe for pressure-induced overload!
Is it summer yet?
I only ask because this wonderful interchangeable weather were having can be very much like our behaviour and mood. One day were all sunshine, blue sky and fluffy clouds the next dark, stormy and dark. The way we behave can have a huge impact on how we feel and on others around us too.
Over the last few years and especially during covid, Hummingbird Hypnotherapy has supported many small businesses who were struggling to get motivated or even see that light at the end of the tunnel through lockdown. We’ve supported business owners with Hypnotherapy both in Lincolnshire and further afield.
Christmas can be a busy time of year for many of us. We may find ourselves putting our own needs last. When January hits and the hustle and bustle of Christmas and New Year is over we need to make sure we are getting plenty of fulfilment and self-care in to avoid those ‘January blues’ creeping in, creating a dip in our energy levels. Even as a trained solution focussed hypnotherapist I still need to put in place some measures to ensure that I am kind to myself.
If you put some work in now, and start building in some ways to be kind to yourself, then you can look upon January as a time for self-care and love with more ease.
Here are 5 ways to be kind to yourself as you head into 2022.
