counselling
CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) is widely accepted as the primary tool for behavioural change and forms the basis of most medicare health plans however a holistic approach allows other modalities to complement this treatment.
hypnosis
Hypnosis is a natural and normal state of the mind in which the body experiences a state of deep physical relaxation while the mind remains clear and focussed. This is similar to the brain wave pattern observed when we day-dream or become engrossed in reading a book or watching a movie. In this altered state of awareness, the sub-conscious becomes accessible for suggestions of positive change. We often struggle to affect change in our lives because our unconscious minds learn specific behaviours and fall into routine and habits that make it resistant to change. Hypnosis works by updating our unconscious learning and opens us up to new ideas, ways of behaving and helps create more positive healthy habits.
meditation
Meditation is a practice that teaches you to relax your body and calm your mind. This can be achieved by shifting our internal focus from thoughts and worries to sensations or imagery, where our heightened experience of body and mind allows the thoughts to take a back seat. Regular meditation has both immediate and sustained benefits for your health through reducing cortisol levels, improving sleep and developing focus and balance.
