A little milestone I’m happy to share today 😊
My latest article has just been published by the Hypnotherapy Directory.

It’s about why some thoughts feel so convincing and how the way we respond to them can sometimes keep us feeling stuck.

If you’d like to have a read, I’d love to hear what you think.

Learn why certain thoughts feel so believable and how cognitive behavioural hypnotherapy can help you respond with greater flexibility.

Sometimes we don’t go back because we expect to find something new.
We go back because uncertainty feels uncomfortable.
Noticing the difference can change how we respond.

Sometimes it’s not the situation that keeps us stuck, but the story that quietly grows around it.

The example in this reel is just one of the many ways this can happen in everyday life. I’ve explored this idea further in my latest blog, ‘Why Do We Take Things So Personally?’

The words ‘I should…’ or ‘I must…’ often sound like part of reality.
Sometimes they’re simply rules we’ve repeated for so long that we no longer notice they’re there.

Sometimes we’re not reacting to what happened. We’re reacting to what we think it says about us.

Our attention naturally notices what still needs improving.
It doesn’t always notice how much has already changed.
Sometimes it’s worth deliberately looking in a different direction.

Save this for a moment when you need a different perspective.

It’s surprisingly easy to adapt, keep going, and move forward without fully registering that anything has changed.

Sometimes what once required enormous effort quietly becomes part of everyday life.

And because of that, we can end up underestimating ourselves.

Many of us are far kinder to other people than we are to ourselves.

I wonder what would happen if we occasionally offered ourselves the same understanding, encouragement and compassion that we so naturally offer other people.
