Fears and Phobias

2018-02-01T20:00:02+00:00

Health is a relationship between you and your body Terri Guillemets Fears and Phobias This is very similar to stress and anxiety, except it is stimuli-specific. This means that your subconscious has learned that reacting with fear, an adrenaline release, panic, fight or flight, to a certain situation, environment or stimuli enables it to survive. Therefore every time you encounter the stimuli, your brain and body react in order to protect you - it worked before and you stayed alive, so your brain has very [...]

Stress and anxiety

2018-02-02T11:28:08+00:00

Health is a relationship between you and your body Terri Guillemets Stress and anxiety Stress and anxiety are perfectly normal, healthy states to be in occasionally, especially when you are in real danger. The problem arises when you enter this state even when you are not in danger, but your body and brain perceive the danger as real and so put your into this highly unpleasant state that has nowhere to be released and can cause damage to your mental and physical health. Suffering with [...]

Loss and grief

2020-01-31T13:51:32+00:00

Loss can come in many forms and people deal with it in different ways. This includes loss of a loved one, be it person or animal; loss of a job or career, loss of health, loss of a relationship or loss of a dream.

Pain Management

2020-01-31T13:51:32+00:00

Many people suffer from chronic pain and are on pain killers long-term, even though the effect wore off some considerable time ago. People’s lives can be crippled by pain that has no known cause or cure. Using a range of techniques I enable people to take control of the pain and reduce it, to soften it and to change it into something manageable, something else, to use their brain to control the pain instead of the pain controlling them. Even at the first session people get a sense of relief and can impact the pain using just their minds and [...]

Depression, Stress, Anxiety, Insomnia

2020-01-31T13:51:32+00:00

Yep, I got the t-shirt for all of these in my teenage years. Yet I was excellent at hiding them and putting on a mask, a front. I don’t think any of my friends would know that I was too scared to order a takeaway, I was too scared to go to a new exercise class by myself, I turned down many a social invite for fears, all those what if’s floating around my head that I couldn’t control and would run away with my confidence. Using various techniques, I work with people and their fears, anxieties, worries, negative thoughts [...]

Smoking

2020-01-31T13:51:33+00:00

As an ex-smoker, 6 attempts where I think I tried everything, every time I stopped smoking I was so jealous of smokers and all I could think about was smoking again, and start smoking again I did. Ultimately it was my mindset that truly changed. On my final attempt I had something significant to move away from and something really great to move towards. I no longer felt jealous of smokers, instead I felt pity that they didn’t have the freedom that I had found. Freedom from smoking is a package of several sessions and by the end you will [...]
