Reduce the stress, lose the weight

If you are stressed and worried, then losing weight can be difficult. For some, stress stops them eating and reduces appetite. For others though, stress makes them eat more, either bingeing or eating at inappropriate times, and eating when real hunger is not present. Hypnotherapy genuinely removes stress, and working through what causes stress. This helps to resolve past issues and allows your mind and body to work together naturally. You really can reduce the stress, lose the weight. This is what a recent client had to say: "I kept wondering why I could not lose weight no matter what [...]

E-cigarettes lead to chronic lung conditions

Just in case you think that electronic cigarettes are better for you than tobacco, there is now evidence that e-cigarettes lead to chronic lung conditions and also affecting the cells in the body. See this article I have seen quite a few clients who have begun to have panic attacks and general anxiety. It would appear that the anxiety began when smoking electronic cigarettes. Perhaps it would be better to stop all forms of smoking, whether it is habitual or psychological. If you'd like to stop smoking now, call me on 01603 712704 or visit my website www.joygower.co.uk

Fears over public speaking

"My speech went as planned and no problems at all. Afterwards a number of people came up to say how they liked my speech. I very much appreciate your time and patience." Sometimes, fears of giving a speech or presentation can fill people with dread and foreboding. It becomes a 'what if' scenario, thinking of things that can go wrong. Making pictures in our mind of us forgetting what to say. and the audience looking embarrassed and uncomfortable. It doesn't have to be this way, as the methods good hypnotherapists and NLP practitioners will tell you. I not only use [...]

Are you afraid of therapy?

Some people live with anxiety, stress and fears almost as if it just a normal part of life and they have to accept. People who are afraid of therapy may be thinking - What if it opens up a can of worms? What if it doesn't work for them? It's enough to make people afraid of tackling their demons, and so they put it off, hoping that perhaps one day they will feel better. Often that day never comes. For anyone contemplating therapy, first do your research. You may feel apprehensive. Perhaps not knowing what would be expected from you. [...]

Thinking about the past or the future

Here's a thought. Try going the next hour or 30 minutes or even 15 minutes only thinking in the present moment. Easy? Difficult? Bet you will struggle with this because most people are thinking about the past or the future more than the present. This gives you an idea why some people can be anxious all the time if they think about a past which for them is not so good. Consider this: How many times do you go over conversations you have had previously? Are you reliving the conversations? You know - "Well, she said this, this and this, [...]

Diabetic weight loss programme

Clients are losing weight successfully with a new diabetic weight loss programme I have devised. This is particularly helpful for people whose metabolism is functioning less than it should be. Combined with hypnosis to re-programme your thoughts, this 4 session programme helps to get into good ways of thinking about food without starving. Other forms of weight loss programmes have limited success: Slimming clubs - often do not help with changing psychological issues Lighter Life or similar - gets the weight off quickly by starving you of the foods you like. The problem is when you eat normally again, [...]

Smoking – stop and stay stopped for good

You say you enjoy smoking, but you know most of the time you don't. You hate the stale smell you can taste and others can smell. Each time you have a cigarette, you are reminded on some conscious or unconscious level, that it is harming you. You are self harming. You became addicted for one reason or another, and easily got into it, but are not finding it so easy to stop. You don't like the idea that smoking controls you, and makes you do what it says you should do. You would like to be free from it. Released [...]
