Cambridge Hypnotherapy ~ Advice How to get real results

Friday, December 16th, 2011

This is sort of a clients experience and it’s an experience that we here at Cambridge Hypnotherapy look out for and listen for.

It’s a time when we help our clients not to be clients until they are ready.

You see Hypnotherapy, especially the way we have developed it is extremely powerful at getting the results you want. And that’s the thing we listen for is it what you want and need. For many it’s just the right thing to change from what you’re feeling to how you want to feel in as little as 2-3 sessions with us.

But

And here is the but:

What if you don’t want to stop smoking but your partner wants you to stop?

What if you bite your nails and your family, not you, want you to stop it?

For some therapists you would be booked into a session with what measure of success? Well probably none and we’ll explain that later.

With us you come along to an initial consultation and we explain how we work and use this time to find out if it’s you who want to change. Because it’s so important to your success in changing if you want to stop and change ~ really important!

If we notice that you are here under someone else’s wishes we will not work with you, you don’t have a problem and you will waste your time and money and we will not let that happen. We will give you a complimentary hypnosis CD and when and if you change your mind and you want to change you then we will book you in to a session ~ only then though.

So you can rest assured when you do visit us we have only your best interests at heart and when you understand that you know you are in the right place at the right time with the right person that can help.

And when you do get the results you want we get to share in your pleasure of being the one who did it (with a little help from us)

Stopping smoking with Cambridge Hypnotherapy over Christmas ~ you decide

Saturday, December 10th, 2011

Wow! what a difficult question: Do I stop smoking before Christmas or stop smoking after Christmas? Do I use Hypnotherapy to stop smoking or do it by myself?

It’s difficult to advise the best time to stop smoking other than when you, yes YOU, decide to.

But the question this time of year is….

Do I stop before Christmas or after???????

And that’s where it helps to come along to an initial consultation and ask those important questions and more importantly get the answers that you need.

You see it all depends on what smoking does for you. If it relieves stress and if Christmas time is likely to be stressful then we may suggest smoke through the whole of Christmas but and it’s a big BUT make a decision before Christmas to stop. Not only make that decision but make a date and a time i.e. Book a stop smoking session! That means you’re telling yourself that you will definitely stop and at the right time. In that way you are telling your unconscious mind that you appreciate what it is doing for you and that you will both find a better way but until then it’s okay..

This talk of appreciating what your unconscious mind is doing for you may seem a little strange to comprehend and it’s fully explained at our complementary consultation and it’s the basis of how we really help you stop in one session.

We’ll also give you something to help you think really differently along with our ‘What will it mean’ hypnosis CD that will get your mind to think differently too.

So if you are a little indecisive of what to do and when to do it the very best thing you can do is contact us by:

or

calling us on 01223 720 120

and we can advise you so you can make the best decision for you

we’ll even send you a link to around 30 minutes of relaxing hypnosis by us whatever you choose to do.

So invest in yourself and spend 20 minutes of your time (yes that’s all it costs) and book up an initial consultation.

You may find a whole lot more too.

Hypnotherapy without Hypnosis in Cambridge?

Saturday, December 3rd, 2011

So how deep do you have to go into hypnosis to get the benefit?

Some people, including some hypnotists still think you have to go really deep. Yet when you think about it, if you have an issue you have surely changed from what you did to what you do now. That’s just logical, isn’t it? And when you changed back then were you put in a deep trance? ~ I think not.

Which all goes on to suggest you may not need a trance to change ~ Hey that’s NLP and Time line therapy(tm) isn’t it? Well you may not know what they are but believe me they’re processes that do not require trance.

SO………….

Why use hypnosis?

Good question!

Well sometimes we have thought about our problem for ages, talked about it to everyone or just ourselves for a long time and we need to get away from all these conscious thoughts. Another great reason is that our issues, which we really believe are just behaviours, are being carried out by our unconscious mind (try walking with only your conscious mind ~ it doesn’t work) the place to change is at the unconscious level and get your unconscious mind to do all the work.

That’s the great thing about the way all three of us work here at Cambridge Hypnotherapy. We can adapt our processes to you and your needs so if hypnosis isn’t required then that’s okay.

We once had a client who really didn’t want to be hypnotised and for a hypnotist that could have been a real problem! Not here we used other ways to help that person change comfortably. We have also had clients who have heard just how good hypnosis is and only want that and that’s what we use, we just adapt what we do, it’s as simple as that.

So back to the original question

The Answer:

Who cares as long as you do (get the benefit)

But you can expect to made comfortable because that’s the most important thing about this consultation ~ It’s your 20 minutes to make a considered decision if you are comfortable with us and that we’re right for you together with having all your questions answered:

 

Questions like

National No-Smoking Day

Wednesday, March 9th, 2011

Today, Wednesday March 9th 2011, marks No Smoking Day, so what better day than to decide to quit smoking with Cambridge Hypnotherapy. We here have helped countless ex smokers become free from their old daily habit, and start to enjoy the results form having given up smoking.

To start with, there is the financial benefit. The average smoker who smokes 20 a day will save around £2500 per year, and thats not even taking into account the ‘extras’ on nights out etc. What would you spend £2500 a year on if someone came up to you and handed it to you today? A car? Clothes? Maybe a nice holiday in the sun?

Then there is the undoubted health benefits of quitting smoking. In just 20 minutes an ex-smokers blood pressure and pulse would return back to normal. In just 24 hours carbon monoxide is eliminated from the body and the lungs will start to clear the build up of tar. Within 2-12 weeks circulation improves, making walking and running a lot easier. At 3-9 months all those nasty coughs, wheezing and breathing problems improve as the lungs increase their capacity for oxygen. Even the risk of heart attack is halved after 1 year of not smoking and after 10 years of quitting the risk of lung cancer is halved.

And lets not forget the appearance benefits? What would it be like to know that that smell s no longer lingering after you everywhere you go, or that the stains on the fingers have just disappeared? Maybe you would like to know that you’re gums are healthier and your teeth are whiter? Or knowing that you will no longer run the risk of premature ageing?

Giving up smoking doesn’t have to be hard, and using Cambridge Hypnotherapy will make it the easiest possible way for you. Using advanced levels of NLP, TimeLine Therapy and Hypnosis, we can help you achieve your goal of becoming a non smoker in only ONE session. We also offer all of our client a free initial consultation as well as giving you 2 CDs to help you on your journey

Why not contact us here now to find out just how easy it can be?

Anxious about Hypnotherapy in Cambridge

Monday, February 28th, 2011
A little while ago I received a reply to an initial consultation reminder text we send out that made me think.

The text read something like this:

Thanks. Ironic that I am seeking your help as I am anxious about everything” and here’s the bit that got me “Including coming to see you!”It’s only because we know the initial consultation is our way to put you at your ease and we have been in so many we’re never anxious!

Being serious though I can really empathise with that comment, sometimes we can be so worried of the unknown we will stay stuck. Some people call it staying in their comfort zone and if you have ever thought that way and I think we all have maybe it should be renamed “the Familiar Zone”. You can be so familiar with your problems, issues and the negative way you feel it can be scary to think of being any other way.

Luke, Joseph and I know this here at Cambridge Hypnotherapy which is why we insist on our prospective clients come to an initial consultation. It’s a time where we can let you know all about our special kind of Hypnotherapy and make you feel really comfortable.

How do we do that?

Well firstly:

You can see we are real people and can tell we are both passionate about your results and you can see that what we are telling you is what we believe in. We don’t sell magically on the telephone or on the web ~ you get to see “the whites of our eyes!” and you get to do this with our compliments, it’s absolutely free.

Secondly:

You get to make a considered decision by getting all your concerns answered and if we’re not for you that’s great and if we are that’s great to.

Thirdly:

You have that worry of being regressed back to times in your life when things were bad ~ because we don’t do that here.

Fourthly:

For those that worry with phobias etc that you will be made to face the thing your fear so much ~ we don’t do that either!

There’s a lot more I could add but then I want you to find out for yourself and start making the changes to your life ~ with a little special help from us.

Are You Scared of hypnosis?

Wednesday, January 26th, 2011

The other day a client called about coming along to an initial consultation but was scared. She had beeen recommended to ‘try’ hypnotherapy by a friends and even though her friend new the results first hand she still remained scared and worried. This can be typical for quite a few people so I thought I would let you know the truth.

So let’s describe a typical hypnosis trance:

If you get up in the mornings with an alarm then you will sure to have had this experience or if you have been asleep and just in that semi awake state, not asleep yet not quite awake. You can probably remember a time right now.

It’s just that you know you could get up, you can hear everything that’s going on, you are aware you are not asleep but it’s just too comfortable and you are soooooo relaxed. ~ That’s it, that’s what being in a trance is like ~ You’re in control ~ totally! You could get up but you well Hmmmm it’s nice here. Yet if you had to get up and deal with something you could.

And there is another great thing that we feel here at Cambridge Hypnotherapy, with our unique Hypnotherapy, is that you may not even be hypnotized because we specialise in NLP and Time Line therapy as well as hypnosis because hypnosis may not be the right thing for you.

But we digress; let’s ask a few questions that if you are scared would put your mind at rest.

Question: Will I lose control?

Answer: Absolutely not! And don’t believe anyone tells you different. A real hypnotherapist guides your unconscious mind to find your answers, never direct you to do anything.

Question: Will I suffer any side affects?

Answer: Probably ~ you may just feel a whole lot better than you felt before!

Question: Will I feel hypnotized or be lie like I am in a coma?

Answer: You will have probably seen people being hypnotized on the stage and looking completely ‘out of it’ well that’s so far from the truth in a therapy setting. Yes, you will probably feel really relaxed and comfortable and the thing is you will hear everything being said to you, it’s just that you will have your eyes closed.

The best thing you can do is make sure you come along to an initial consultation first, it’s totally complimentary and you can get all the information and answers you need first hand. You will find like most things you worried about and when you did them, you got through them and probably enjoyed them ~ hypnosis is the same.

Plus because we really enjoy our work and helping people get what they want we find our clients enjoy it too!

Why Wait?

Friday, January 14th, 2011

The vast majority of our clients here at Cambridge Hypnotherapy tend to say one thing at the end of their set of sessions with us… “I wish I’d have done this sooner!”

So why didn’t they? Quite simply, because they didn’t know how powerful their own minds were, and they didn’t understand that they were responsible for the way that they were behaving. Whether it was stopping smoking, having problems with alcohol, weight management issues, issues with lacking in confidence, and even depression, we want all our clients to accept responsibility for being where they are in their life, and not to blame others or the situations that they have been in.

So what would you change if you could? Would you like to feel that confidence that you may feel in certain situations, in other areas of your life too? Maybe you would like to know that whatever happens at work or in a social event, that you can react and respond in a way that feels right and that you would do if you could consciously choose to? Woul you like to know that it doesn’t matter whether there are cakes and biscuits, or even alcohol around, and that you can stop eating or drinking whenever you want and not feel that you ‘just can’t stop’.

Well now is the time. Please don’t wait and be one of those people who look back after struggling to deal with things for 25 years and say “I wish I’d have done this sooner!”

It really doesn’t have to be a struggle. It can be very quick and effortless if you choose it to be. Contact us now at Cambridge Hypnotherapy to find out just how easy it can be!

Smoking Metaphor

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

about a chap who craved to own a particular house for years….
until finally he managed to own it …
then over time of living in it he became ill and no-one could tell him what was wrong …
until he went on holiday and suddenly his illness cleared up…
returning home, he had his house checked and found that it was poisoning him…
and despite how much he loved that house, longed for it, he knew his health to be
more important and packed and moved out within a day ….
because nothing was worth his health…
not even that lovely house …
If you’re a therapist feel free to borrow this
If you’re a smoker What would it mean to you to be able to stop smoking in one session?
and
if you want to try this
the next time you ‘feel like a cigarrette’
before you light up put all your attention into that feeling
(it’s probably around your lips) and test how long you can keep
that feeling there before it disappears…………then carry on with your day ~well done
I hope you find this usefull
enjoy every heart beat
