I sense that it is a year of breakthrough.

If you have been struggling with an issue for a long time, caught in some kind of cycle that you can’t seem to break out of, 2019 is the year you finally move past it.

How do I know that?

I know that if you are ready for change, everything lines up to bring that change to you. That was my experience in 2018.

It’s amazing how you will read a blog, watch a video, come across an inspirational quote on social media, feel compelled to read a book, meet someone new – all of these things can provide the little pointers, prompts and nudges about the next step you need to take.

So pay attention. Listen to what God (the universe) is telling you.

2019 is the year for your breakthrough.

There is no better time for change than right now.

How much longer do you think it would be good to hang onto that problem, stay stuck in that cycle, struggle with that issue??

If you are ready to move past all that, tune in to the messages that are being delivered to you.

Dare to dream and hope. Listen to the still small voice inside that knows what to do.

Start off down a new path and you will arrive at a new destination before 2019 ends.

Imagine that…..

I have always said that winning the mental game is vital for success. You probably already “know” all the right things to do and all the right reasons for doing them. But that knowledge alone does not necessarily produce the desired outcome.

Some people try to use affirmations, conscious thought control and willpower to achieve “mind over matter” and push through to achieve a goal. But that is exhausting and doomed to failure. Willpower is only short term at best and our conscious efforts cannot maintain forward momentum over time.

Perhaps you dream and set goals for a desired future, and then annoyingly find yourself failing to follow through with your good intentions. Attempt after attempt leaves you feeling demoralised, frustrated and eventually hopeless about the possibility of achieving lasting change.

The truth is that 95% of our decisions, actions, emotions and behaviour depend on brain activity that is outside of our conscious awareness. Our life is a reflection of the unconscious programs that run in the background, driving self-destructive patterns that are largely based in negativity and fear.

I invite you to consider hypnotherapy, which provides a way to bypass the critical faculty of the conscious brain and access the resources of the unconscious mind, providing the opportunity to reprogram the underlying beliefs, triggers and patterns driving your behaviour.

When your inner resources, focus and commitment are aligned with your higher values, it is like someone has flicked a switch and turned on the light. All the shadows disappear, leaving a brighter, clearer and more colourful world. Action aligns with belief. You can now realise deep and lasting change.

Hypnosis is helpful for losing weight, stopping smoking, enhancing performance, reducing anxiety and many other things.

Most of us know about setting SMART goals. They are

• Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time based

So when we set a goal to lose weight, the goal is often stated along these lines:

I want to lose 5 kilos by 30 June 2017.

This goal may be SMART, but it is not inspiring!! It is a PUSH goal.

When the going gets tough (and it will) a PUSH goal comes up short. It feels like pushing uphill.

That is why you need a PULL goal – something that will draw you towards the desired outcome (with a force like a magnet).   Continue reading Six great reasons to turn your PUSH goal into a PULL goal →

If you are struggling with weight loss, you may not understand why you crave certain foods and why you sometimes just can’t stop eating.

The reason is that many refined and processed foods are specifically and deliberately designed to be addictive.*

The secret sauce to having the body of your dreams is this:  Your level of commitment.
