The Shower of Confidence

Bath or shower? Which do you prefer? Does it depend on what you want to do with the rest of the day, or how you feel...?
Baths have become something of a luxury; something of a treat or a special occasion; something to do at the end of a difficult day to soak away all your aches and pains. By the time you have luxuriated in a bath you may be so relaxed that all you want to do is go to sleep.
Some people do their thinking in the bath; they put their world to rights before the end of the day, go to bed unburdened and awake refreshed.
Nowadays, however, the majority of people  have showers rather than baths - for all sorts of reasons: cheaper, quicker, more refreshing etc

You might not spend long in the shower but use the time to your advantage:
The shower can be the perfect place for a few well chosen affirmations, especially at the start of the day; words that will get you off to a good start and enable you to achieve your potential.

Use the following, or create your own:

• I am confident and calm
• I am in charge of my destiny
• I am proud of who I am and what I have achieved

Speak in the present and the positive; don't use "I will.." or "try".

Say the affirmations in your head, say them out loud, or put them to the tune of your favourite song. It doesn't really matter -  just  be confident.

Alternatively,  as the water flows over your body, imagine that the water is washing away all your troubles, fears and negative feelings. Imagine that the water droplets are tiny words representing your negative feelings and watch as they disappear down the drain. Then imagine that the water droplets coming  from the shower head are all positive words and notice how they make you feel as they wash over your body.
The more often you do this, the easier it will become  and you will soon be able to benefit from your Shower of Confidence.

100 Days without Chocolate, Toffee or Haribos!

It's official: on Easter Monday I reached 100 days without chocolate, toffee or Haribos!
In fact it has been remarkably easy so far to resist all temptation. I have absolutely no interest in, or desire for, chocolate. The self hypnosis and EFT which I used at the end of December  are still going strong. I haven't done anything extra - although it would take only minutes to do. My subconscious has accepted that I no longer need chocolate to survive and I can't say that I miss it at all.
With this, however, has come an unexpected  problem: I can't function in the sweet shop or sweet aisle in the supermarket. Not ideal when there were Easter eggs to be bought.
On the rare occasion I have been asked to pick up sweets or chocolate for other members of my family  it has been almost impossible to buy the correct items.
I'll try to explain...
 Imagine being in a foreign country, one where the alphabet is different so that you can't pick up any clues about the items you want to buy. Now imagine going into a shop there to buy a simple item and finding that everything in the shop looks similar and you can't work out what is what from the packaging.
That's how it is in the sweetshop. I can see the different bars of chocolate, but actually finding the chocolate I have been asked to buy  is almost impossible. Luckily I didn't have too many eggs to buy or I would probably still be in the shop...
Hypnotherapy is a fantastic tool for overcoming unwanted habits - I used it for my obsession with chocolate, toffee and Haribos - but it is equally effective for smoking cessation, nailbiting,  drinking, or teeth grinding,   to name but a few.
Whatever your habit, hypnotherapy can help, and for many unwanted habits the problem can be cleared in just one or two sessions.
Remember that a habit is just a learned response;  the brain can be retrained to reject that learned response.
Don't delay! Take action today and put a stop to those unwanted habits.
