Mindful Hypnosis

Ever felt like your emotions are the puppeteers pulling your strings, dictating every move and thought?

Say goodbye to that illusion as I reveal the secrets to owning your feelings, rather than being owned by them.
This episode takes a deep dive into the misconceptions surrounding our emotions and the profound truth that they do not define us.

We dissect the intricate dance between sensations and thoughts, and how our brain's prediction errors can lead us down a spiral of constant anxiety. But don't fret—there's a way out, and it's simpler than you think.

Let's discuss the power of breaking habitual reactions to stress and the importance of distinguishing between being in the grip of an emotion versus merely anticipating its onset.

By weaving mindfulness and hypnosis into our daily routines, we can navigate life's turbulence with newfound ease.

Join us and reshape your relationship with your inner world.

Ever wondered why negative experiences seem to linger longer in your memory than positive ones?
It may surprise you to know that our brains are naturally wired towards negativity - but why is this the case, and how does it affect our perception and life experiences?

We explore from personal experiences and Rick Hansen's enlightening book "Hardwiring Happiness," why we remember the bad over the good, and how media and gossip further fuel this bias.

Don't let your brain hold you back!
Remember, your mind is the most potent tool you have, and learning how to harness its power can help you live life on your terms.
We share practical strategies to overcome your natural tendency towards negativity.

What if the act of forgiving wasn’t just about others, but about releasing yourself from the burden of past regrets and mistakes?
I'm not a huge fan of that word, but other terms might feel less loaded to you.
