Review: Self-Worth Hypnosis – Hypno-Peripheral Processing (HPP)

Review: Self-Worth Hypnosis – Hypno-Peripheral Processing (HPP)

Review: Self-Worth Hypnosis – Hypno-Peripheral Processing (HPP) Years ago a friend introduced me to something called ‘Hypno Peripheral Processing’ (HPP),  and I thought WOW this is amazing. However, back then I was not ready for change, so I gave up listening to the recordings after a short time. When I was inspired to look into it again I felt ready for change and transformation.I am a big believer that when it is…

How To Stay In Your Power When Your Reputation Is Questioned

How To Stay In Your Power When Your Reputation Is Questioned

It’s tough going when your reputation is on the line. The ego likes to get you in its grip and tries to get you to do something to get your reputation back, but why? If people are going to judge you, no amount of trying is going to change their minds. Some people like to validate their points of view, so will take on whatever information or gossip they are…

Using Your EGO – 10 Tips For Balance

The ego, the big bad wolf, the thing some spiritual circles try to get rid of, the evil machine that controls us, the thing that starts wars, makes us addicted to outer beauty… yes the ego. But what about the ego that propels us forward, makes changes, puts our name in lights, gets the word out about what we do? What about that ego?Talking with a good friend over a…

Maybe You’re Not A Good Person?

Maybe You’re Not A Good Person?

  “What you run from you run into” ~ Nikita Tweet This!It can be hard to acknowledge and accept that you’re not a ‘good’ person. I pride myself on being a ‘good’ person, thinking if I haven’t got what everyone else has (home of my own, regular income, relationship, family, confidence) at least I’m a ‘good’ person. When you’ve been carrying such a heavy ‘failure’ story for so long, to be…

V Is For VULNERABILITY

V Is For VULNERABILITY

  Feeling vulnerable, something I have felt a lot in my life. Vulnerable in relationships, vulnerable in grief, vulnerable in loneliness – vulnerable. “Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we…

S Is For SEXY

S Is For SEXY

What is sexy to you? I used to think it was tall dark handsome, but now, as I have grown more wise (grin), I realise that sex appeal is an inside job. Someone can be stereotypically beautiful and have no sex appeal at all. Sexy comes from within, physical beauty that we are often brainwashed to believe to be sexy needs to have the whole package. My boyfriend told me…

N Is For Neediness

N Is For Neediness

Neediness, something I used to be the Queen of. I was needy in friendships, needy with partners and in relationships, I was just plain needy. Needless to say neediness can give off a bright shining beacon saying ‘I’m needy, stay away!’ I’m writing this article not to criticise anyone who feels needy. I know what it feels like to feel needy and I still have moments of neediness, particularly if…

J Is For JUDGEMENTAL

J Is For JUDGEMENTAL

We judge. We are human. We often judge a lot! Those more enlightened among us perhaps judge less, but judging is the way we compare and contrast. For example: I might say of someone: ‘I judge that behaviour to be unacceptable to me’. So I may choose to avoid that person and not behave like that myself – BUT, and it’s a big but, this does not mean that the…

I Is For INSECURE

I Is For INSECURE

Insecurity is a fact of life. So few people, unless enlightened from birth, feel secure throughout their lives. I feel this world makes it almost impossible to feel secure all of the time, life in its essence is insecure because life is always changing, the world around us moves and shifts and our thoughts are never the same. The only thing that is not shifting is the awareness that is beyond all…

E is for Embarrassment

E is for Embarrassment

As a perpetual blusher, embarrassment is something that has been a regular event in my life. I can’t remember a time when I did not blush, even during my early childhood I was very shy, hiding behind my mother and going red in the face at any sense of attention from others. At the moment I am more able to embrace the blushing feeling, but I question it because I…
