Sleep Hygiene- the things you can do to provide yourself with the best possible chance of a good nights rest and sleep. 15 top tips. 1. Keep to regular waking and sleeping times. 2. Only try to sleep when you feel tired to avoid frustrated time 'trying to sleep'. 3. If you can't get to sleep for 20 mins get up and do something relaxing/boring then go back to bed to try again, then repeat if necessary.... 4. Avoid all stimulants such as caffeine for 4-6 hours before going to sleep. 5. Avoid alcohol 4-6 hours before bed the same reason. 6. Train your body to use your bed only for sleeping by using the bed only when you want to rest (not watching tv, working etc) 7. Avoid taking naps in the day. If you do need a nap make it before 3 pm and less than one hour. 8. Make a 'sleep ritual' to prepare your mind/body for sleep. This could be stretching/breathing or anything that is calming in the time period before wishing to sleep. 9. Having a hot bath 1-2 hours before bed. Research shows that sleeplessness can be caused by a low body temperature, thus by raising the body temperature in a bath is can make you drowsy and more able to sleep. 10. Don't clock watch. Constantly checking the time can reinforce anxious feelings and make it harder to sleep. 11. Using a sleep diary can be helpful to track progress (though do it without checking the time constantly!) 12. Regular exercise can assist with good sleep, though strenuous activity in the 4 hours before bed is not recommended. 13. Balanced diet. Sleeping on an empty stomach can be distracting, as can sleeping on a full stomach. A light snack can work well, as can warm milk that is a natural sleep enhancer. 14. Ensure your environment is right. A good temperature, quiet, dark and with adequate, comfortable space. 15. If you have a bad night sleep do not alter daily activities as this can promote insomnia.

Recent Client Review- Disordered Eating "Experience of Treatment Sessions for: disordered eating and anxiety Before I came to see Stuart, I was really struggling with disordered eating which was becoming an increasingly unsustainable way to live. I often felt consumed by thought patterns which would loop between the what's and if's of eating. This left me feeling frightened of the contents inside my fridge. Which was far from ideal. The decision to invest in treatment s...essions both financially and energetically was definitely a good one for me. Of-course there is no magic cure to the anxiety that drove my disordered eating. However, the sessions were surprisingly effective in helping me work through both the mechanism of disordered eating and some of the stuff underneath that. I also think it is important to note that I found the therapeutic process very challenging, and did wish that I had more time and space in my life to process what came up. Ultimately, I now have a much more peaceful relationship with food which is a world away from what it was before. I also suspect my general self-awareness has improved which could, at least in part, explain why I feel more of a sense of clarity when problem solving across a wide range of areas in my life." -E.h.k 19/5/19 If you have any issues around disordered /binge eating -Call Stuart -07825 599340 for a free 30 minute telephone consultation to discuss how therapy can help . stuart@hypnotherapy4freedom.com

The challenge for all of us is not to deny feeling angry, but to also not dump or abuse others. Unrecognised anger can spill out of ourselves unconsciously and if, after reflection, we still feel angry with someone we have to be skilful as to how to express our difference. There is no need to be cruel, unkind, nasty, or shaming. We learn that getting angry is not the problem, but acting the anger out certainly is. At this point we still get angry; however, it’s not often that...

Anxiety is probably the most popular state of being in the Western world today. It frequently makes the headlines, and even children have complained about "having anxiety" - something that was practically unheard of when I was a kid. Anxiety is simply the manifestation of fear. When you feel anxious, you are afraid of something that already happened or something that's about to happen - something you can't control. And because of this lack of control, you spin the thought in ...
