Blog Archives - Page 9 of 30 - Open Mind Hypnotherapy

A couple of weeks ago I celebrated my two-year anniversary of working out of Harley Street, and this July will see me reach eight years of working as a Cognitive Hypnotherapist. My work has changed enormously over that time, mainly so that I could accommodate my growing family – I found out I was pregnant with my eldest daughter […]

A busy ten days!  The girls went back to school, I went back to seeing clients and supervisees and I got to grips with a new camera kindly lent to me by a photographer friend of mine after I left my camera at my office in London.  Despite the challenges of immense tiredness, complex-but-rewarding client sessions and a new […]

We are big fans of colouring in this house.  In my office there is a large wicker basket quite literally full to the brim with piles and piles of colouring books.  I’ve spent many a happy hour with my girls over the years, contentedly adding colour to the muddle of lines on a page. (Confession: I’ve even […]

The second half of the Easter holidays provided us with some really lovely weather, so whilst my husband unfortunately had to work most of the time, the girls and I spent lots of quality time together having adventures and soaking up the Spring sunshine (I do love working for myself – I feel very lucky to […]

This instalment of #projecthappy encompasses the first half of the Easter holidays, so there have been lots of fun times with the girls. Plus, I’ve reached my 400th day of capturing joyful moments. I’m pretty proud of that.                  

I follow a lot of bloggers on Facebook. Some are UK based, some are in America and some are in Australia.  Although they are scattered all over the world, we all have one thing in common:  we are women sharing our stories and being real.  Talking about motherhood, sisterhood, friendship, body image, self esteem, life […]

The last two months have been about survival. Nothing more. Eight weeks of battling anxiety unlike anything I’ve experienced before – panic attacks in the shower, feeling sick every time I tried to eat (and having to make myself eat anyway – no way am I going down that road again), topped off with feeling so tense […]

Every Wednesday I work out of my office in Harley Street in central London.  On this Wednesday just gone, my first client of the day had cancelled so I had an hour and a half of time going spare.  I should probably have used that time productively to catch up on work – answer long-neglected emails, prep for […]

An up and down edition of #projecthappy.   Some days it was easy to find the joyful moments, and some days it was more difficult.  We’re all exceptionally tired at the moment and counting down the days to the Easter holidays so we can spend some quality time together.                  

I’m not sure whether I believe in the Universe.  As in, ‘if you want something, ask the Universe to provide it’.  I don’t believe in God, so why should I believe in any other form of higher power? And yet… When you put it like that I guess the power of the Universe is pretty convincing. So what about […]
