#38 A heads up
It's not long and I think worth a listen Digging deeper and getting more specific Here's a quick heads up on a way some of these podcasts will go, to explore topics more than general self improvement but issues such as depression, guilt, grief, anxiety you fill in the blank. They may not be the topical niceties but if you suffer from them you will want to know that you're not alone and there's a way out. Even if you don't experience these first hand, people in your life you love may, I believe we should be able to recognize the symptoms and know how to direct help. We can all fall to these issues in one way or another. Shine brightly Paul

#24 What To Expect Of A Hypnotherapist
For some, you may be considering going to a hypnotherapist. Well, I thought you may want to have a heads up on to what to look for. These are only my thoughts and opinions so they are obviously based on what I have experienced or learnt along the way and I know there are other thoughts and opions - I can only share you mine. Most think of stopping smoking or weight loss when thinking of working with a hypnotherapist and in my experience these are the smaller percentages of client base. Anxiety, panic, depression, OCD, social phobia. PTSD, you fill in the blank etc are all emotional states and behaviours that part and parcel of what are helped overcome. The most important thing to remember is - you're NOT broken and do NOT need curing! There are so many great hypnotherapists around doing great work and helping people getting back on track. Go seek one out and make great changes to your life. You deserve to create the life you wish for and getting a little help just makes that a little quicker. Shine brightly Paul
