Emma explains what can happen when you focus on improving your life :) 

ADHD is a well researched mental condition.  It's a very real physiological difference in the brain, and there is a spectrum. 

This TED talk really breaks down what ADHD is, and more importantly, what it's not! :) 

​

I recorded this a little while ago - its one I share with my therapy clients.  It is a hypnosis recording which helps with empowering you to make positive changes to your life. :) Enjoy! 

Do you think you have imposter syndrome? There are ways to combat it. 

Some of the common signs of imposter syndrome include:

• Self-doubt
• An inability to realistically assess your competence and skills
• Attributing your success to external factors
• Berating your performance
• Fear that you won't live up to expectations
• Overachieving 
• Sabotaging your own success
• Setting very challenging goals and feeling disappointed when you fall short
  

At some point something like 70% of people have felt some kind of imposter syndrome, so you're not alone! 

Here's a video that I recorded on some helpful tips to combat it :)

We have been through the most interesting of times lately, haven't we? But it has also been time to reflect and stop and notice. 

I took this photo in the Lake District during lockdown. Lockdown has been the time to recalibrate and slow down for a while. 
I've continued to work online, which has been brilliant and I am grateful to be able to have continued to help people through this uncertainty. But It's also given me plenty of time to slow down and notice. 

I hope that you are all managing to work out what you *do* want out of your lives. 

Take care

Do you have any hobbies? If someone asked me that a few months ago, I would have said no, I didn't have any hobbies, but really, I was forgetting just how many photos I have on my iPhone! 

I guess my passion is photography. But I don't have special equipment so it never seems to be that special to me. 

I guess the things we do every day without thinking about them become bland or uninteresting, and we may not take the time to appreciate them. Earlier I was on my computer looking back over some of the photos I[ve taken, and I had this sudden realisation that photography IS a hobby of mine, and one I am quite proud of. 

​What's yours? 

A funny look (and whistle stop tour) of psychology! 

Author of the book 'Ugly' and political advisor Robert Hoge explores why we all need to own our own faces. Sharing his own personal story, Robert examines, life, love, beauty, imperfection and pain in this powerful TEDxTalk. ​

Even people who work in the mental health field get these days too. We are all human! Here's what I do when I just have a dose of the blaaaahs. 

Sit back, relax and take 10 minutes of peace and quiet!

When chatting to clients quite often they are in the position they are in due to catastrophising. What that means is that they keep themselves thinking of the worst case scenario until it's all that they can think about.
However, quite often, whatever it is they are worrying about never actually happens! So they've expended all that time, energy and anguish on something that really didn't need worrying about in the first place! 

Remember this, if it is within your control; do something to change it. 
If it is out of your control; let it go! 

Whenever you get up in the morning, try to say something kind to yourself. Often people are so busy thinking negatively about themselves that this becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy! So change it - say something kind and the day will evolve to be so much better than expected :) 

Kick back, relax and take half an hour for yourself to relax. :) 

Have you heard the latest? My Slim Via Hypnosis program has come out of the consulting room (where I have successfully used it to help clients lose weight over the last 8 years) and it is now being repurposed and brought up to date, soon to be launched as a comprehensive right "out-of-the-box" 4 session training for other therapists! 
In conjunction with Georgina McKinnon who runs KICH hypnotherapy training in kent the techniques and strategies we have incorporated into the training are well established and well used, effective techniques, meaning therapists will be able to just print the literature and use the program without any need for adding a thing! 
We will be launching the product to the market in the way of online live training in mid November.

A few weeks ago, I met the wonderful Rosie! She was such a sweetie pie. She came in with her mum and was very worried about dogs. But once we had done a session or two, her confidence soared - so much so, that the next day she went into the playground and she petted a friends dog! 

The next few weeks passed, and Rosies mum gave me a lovely update - she said:

"Hi Emma an update on Rosie. Tonight she went round her friends house after school, who has a dog. She sat at the table most of the afternoon with the dog at her feet! It's amazing what you've done for her to get her completely over this fear. Thank you!" 

What a star you are Rosie!! Well done.
