Hypnotherapy Diploma students help each others

Our students had their first observed session a couple of weeks ago and Mark and I have had some great feedback about the beneficial changes that they have experinced.
The students worked on each other, each in groups of four for the day, looked after by one of our appointed supervisors. Taking it in turns […]

Childrens creative play and psychological development

Do you remember a time when you were a child playing some made up game? A branch became a horse, a twig a gun; and in the blazing heat of the desert sands (well …local hills) you rode to capture the bad wizard? No? But maybe you have your own story?
I started to think […]

Teenagers and depression

I was on a slot with BBC Radio Lancashire last Tuesday who did a section of their afternoon show on teenagers and depression. The broadcaster Sean McGinty has three teenagers of his own so he was really interested in understanding why they display such strange behaviour at times.
We talked about some basic ideas that may […]

Hypnotherapy Diploma students get the full picture about weight issues.

Ok so I admit to watching TV while I ate breakfast today. They were talking about a study from Birmingham University that showed if you thought about your last meal in detail, you ate less.
The facilitators took two groups of students and asked one group to recall their journey to the campus and the […]

Training students on Hypnothrapy Diploma Course in the Rewind Technique

Watching the Horizon programme last Tuesday, I was reminded of how many people with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) continue to suffer unnecessarily; because they are being treated with outdated ineffective treatments, or do not have access to being treated with the ‘Rewind technique.’
Held by many to be one of the most effective psychological tools […]

Training the Hypnotherapy Trainer

Having just finished this years training for our newest supervisors on the Hypnotherapy diploma I overheard one supe say that they did not realise there was so much to learn to be able to give support and constructive feedback. Feedback and support during the exercises and the client sessions that is.
All of our supervisors and […]

Can we learn from the dodo?

The dodo became extinct because it wasn’t adaptable enough said a researcher on the TV the other night.
After years living on Mauritius this bird had developed a large chest and no longer flew. It nested upon the ground and when man arrived could not adapt quickly enough to the changing environment to survive. Millions […]

All types of learning catered for on the 2008 diploma

After a blog holiday………….back again after our first Diploma 2008 weekend with a really great bunch of new students.
Lots to tell you but the first snippet to pass on is some reassuring knowledge that will help you feel calm when faced with any new learning environment. I relayed this to our students too.
When I […]

Respect for my hypnotherapy diploma students

The students are now six months into the course and my overriding  sense from the last weekend is one of deep respect for the work that the students are doing in between the weekends. They are out there practising what they have learnt and already making a difference to the lives of their friends and relatives.
Stories of their […]

hypnotherapy students learn how to treat depression

A doctor once said to me that when someone with depression walks through his surgery door he feels his heart sink, many counsellors experience the same. I went to a meeting a couple of years ago where there were twenty two other psychotherapists and counsellors from various backgrounds………after a round robin chat where I heard the other […]
