Up to date association membership lets clients know I have met all the requirements of my association. There is no requirement for hypnotherapists to be in an association, but its good to know your therapist has some oversight from a supervisor, and has met all the other requirements of association membership.

Clive shared his version of the Rewind Technique that I use for removing emotional trauma. We found out later that the demonstration at the end had re-energized the person who volunteered:

Priorities have been key since the training. 
Using a tasking app for daily / weekly stuff and a hard copy diary for big picture planning. 

I’ve had a whole life worth of stuff in storage for the past 15 months that I haven’t looked at and have decided to clear it by selling, giving away and scanning client stuff to simplify my record management was only a vague conversation of maybe I should do that is now a project with a deadline. 

Talking about exercise and not not doing has now become a priority. 
It’s been an interesting week with good energy and a proactive outlook.   

Author of "The Womans's Brain Book" Dr Sarah McKay gave a great presentation at the May AHA association meeting. She explains the neurobiology of the afternoon nap: "It'll enhance your memory, spark creativity, and regulate your emotions. No app, guru or course required!"

My client Julie wrote for me: I felt nervous about hypnotherapy as it has not worked for me in the past. However, this time has been different. It has helped me to focus and find what is important to me and allowed me to make choices in my best interests. I have lost weight and I'm feeling better but mostly I feel lighter and healthier. Thank you Alan for the kick start I needed."
It is often that clients come for one issue, but as I help free them from the emotional baggage, they have a new sense of autonomy, the ability to make good choices, as well as a lightness of being that comes from a spring clean of the mind.
