So what is happening? Clients are&nbsp; reporting more motivation. Habits are changing. There is less anxiety in the world. People are letting go of their long held emotional baggage and reporting feeling lighter after sessions.&nbsp;<br /><span style="color:rgb(78, 78, 78)">A draft book has been prepared and now ready for being checked by the editors. A second manuscript is in the pipeline. But the face to face therapy is where we most love to help.&nbsp;<br />Anxiety seems to be the main issue of clients coming to see me, and is now my speciality. Whether irrational fears like driving on freeways, fear of flying, or discomfort with dealing with people face to face or in groups, fear of losing someone, fear of staying with someone, fear of making a decision, I have seen it all and helped with all of these and many more issues that people have had. Any situation where what you want consciously is not what your unconscious mind is delivering is something I can help with. So I guess, the first step is to know what you want, and I can help with that by doing a visioning session. Or if you know what you want we can just jump into removing subconscious blocks, creating and reinforcing new habits aligning thoughts, feelings, actions to drive success.</span></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[One of the courses done this year.]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/one-of-the-courses-done-this-year]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/one-of-the-courses-done-this-year#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Mon, 17 Apr 2023 06:07:26 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/one-of-the-courses-done-this-year</guid><description><![CDATA[ Hypnotherapists in an association need to accumulate at least 20 CPD points each year to maintain their skills.&#8203;  [...] ]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span class='imgPusher' style='float:left;height:0px'></span><span style='display: table;width:300px;position:relative;float:left;max-width:100%;;clear:left;margin-top:0px;*margin-top:0px'><a><img src="https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/uploads/6/6/2/9/6629256/published/aha-tim-box-certificate.jpeg?1681711888" style="margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 10px; border-width:0; max-width:100%" alt="Picture" class="galleryImageBorder wsite-image" /></a><span style="display: table-caption; caption-side: bottom; font-size: 90%; margin-top: -10px; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: center;" class="wsite-caption"></span></span> <div class="paragraph" style="display:block;">Hypnotherapists in an association need to accumulate at least 20 CPD points each year to maintain their skills.&#8203;</div> <hr style="width:100%;clear:both;visibility:hidden;"></hr>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now a supervisor in both the AHA and ASCH associations.]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/now-a-supervisor-in-both-the-aha-and-asch-associations]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/now-a-supervisor-in-both-the-aha-and-asch-associations#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Mon, 17 Apr 2023 05:55:53 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/now-a-supervisor-in-both-the-aha-and-asch-associations</guid><description><![CDATA[      [...] ]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/uploads/6/6/2/9/6629256/ahasupervisor_orig.jpeg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Association memberships]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/association-memberships]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/association-memberships#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Wed, 11 May 2022 01:11:09 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.centralcoasthypnosis.com.au/blog/association-memberships</guid><description><![CDATA[ Up to date association membership lets clients know I have met all the requirements of my association.
