HYPNOTHERAPY
Hypnotherapy is widely known throughout the world as a powerful and popular therapy enabling people to enjoy positive changes in their lives. It utilises the skillful use of language and imagery to promote a state of trance or Hypnosis. Hypnosis is a natural state that all of us experience every day, at least during some part of the day. When we drift off into a "daydream", for instance, or that moment when we wake in our day and we are not really awake yet, however we are awake enough to be not actually asleep - it is at this moment when we are in an hypnotic state; a trance. Similarly, if you drive a car you must have experienced that phenomenom of, when driving a familiar route, arriving at your destination (quite safely!) and not being quite aware of exactly how you achieved this, or even recalling everything on the way! A state of trance.

This trance-like state, this hypnotic state, is the sharp point of focus of natural relaxation that the therapist promotes in a session of hypnosis. The client is relaxed and in control, is aware throughout and, it is in this relaxed and comfortable position, that the subconscious mind is open to suggestion and can accept new and positive ways of thinking and living.

NLP: Neuro linguistic Programming
NLP describes the amazing relationship between the mind (Neuro) language (Linguistics) and how the dynamics between the two affect our body and behaviour. It is the study of the structure of subjective experience.

NLP's co-founders, Richard Bandler and John Grinder studied the behaviour of excellent communicators, namely; Fritz Perls(Gestalt Therapy) Virginia Satir (foremost exponent of Family Therapy) and Milton Erickson(MD and Hypnotist). They scrutinized how they did their work, what they did specifically and how they achieved such excellence. They then modelled their behaviour and demonstrated that any successful(and unsuccessful) communication can be modelled. In doing so they revealed the HOW process in modelling the excellence of others, enabling others to have success.

So this was the original basis of NLP and it has been further developed over the last 30 years becoming prolific in personal and professional change work throughout the world and is said to be :

NLP gets results through a trail of techniques and methodology, but most importantly the attitude of learning through each and every opportunity. It asks the question "What do you want?", stimulating curiosity and encouraging people to explore in a fun way their own thinking processes; as they become aware of their own resources they move from the problem state towards the desired state. This journey is made possible through NLPs' multiple ways of gaining information, thinking in outcomes, designing better strategies and implementing them. This is then future paced so the changes created are sustainable and the results can be continually enjoyed in the future.

LIFECOACHING
Life coaching is for any individual who would like to explore different aspects of their life.

"Coaching deals with all areas of life, professional and personal- it's not just for people with problems - but for those who want to do what they do even better" (Independent on Sunday)

"More and more people are employing a professional to help them get their lives under control and finally achieve what they want" (Daily Mail)

How often have you considered some of the big questions in life?

• What would I like to achieve in life?
• How do I change things in me for the positive?
• Where would I like to be?
• How can I develop in all of these ways?

How often have you considered dealing with them only to drop them after a while because you found them too daunting/challenging, got distracted, didn't follow through with plans made or didn't even know where to start?

Sound familiar? If so, this is your chance to engage in a fresh approach. Imagine now exploring these questions with someone skilled to help you become the person you want to be; someone encouraging your full potential, showing you your maximum resources in a fun and positive way.
