Hello there, My name is Anthony and I have been helping people to deal with their feelings for quite a long time now. I have recently been speaking to Julie about how what I do could help some of her clients. She asked me to write a blog and introduce myself. Now I’m pretty new to this whole blogging thing, (getting my head around Twitter was fun to say the least) so apologies if I’m a little clunky at first. I am a Hypnotherapist. This is my job and I absolutely love doing it. I have been doing it as a profession for about three years now and I’m pleased to say that it is becoming more widely accepted as a fast and powerful way to help people to change their negative emotions. But recently I realised that hypnotherapy still has a certain “stigma” (for want of a better word) surrounding it. I was asked a question that made me realise just exactly how hypnotherapy is viewed in general. The question went something like this: “How can laying someone down and talking to them in a soft voice change the way they feel?” I thought for a little while. And then I smiled and I said, “It can’t”. The person looked a little confused. I smiled again and I said, “but that’s not what hypnotherapy is”. Losing your hair can be absolutely devastating to some people, and then to others they can move on and live with it fairly quickly. How can some people deal with things more easily than others? How can some people easily move on and others become stuck? Every human being has the ability to change his or her feelings and to eventually move on. The capacity for the mind to change is limitless. Some people have naturally learned how to use this ability and others have not. I encounter people who are struggling with their self-confidence all the time. I encounter people who are struggling to come to terms with the way they look - whether this being because something has change recently or just because their image doesn’t match how they feel – and I use hypnosis to TEACH them how to move on. Laying someone down and talking in a soft voice may be how it looks to an onlooker, but the person who is relaxed with their eyes closed (whether it be laying down, sitting in a chair or standing up) isn’t simply listening. They are actually going through a process. They are getting in touch with those negative feelings and learning how to change them. That’s what I do. I teach people how to change the way they feel about a situation that is beyond their control. If you can’t change the situation, then you need to work at changing the way you feel about it. Only then can you begin to move on and feel better – inside and out. So, after feeling like I’ve rambled on for a little too long, I’m off to put the kettle on and enjoy an afternoon off. I’d just like to say thank you for reading and hopefully I have given you a little food for thought. Please free to ask me any questions – I will do my very best to help answer them.
