Right Your Own Story

The Disney version of Aladdin (either the Robin Williams or the Will Smith version) is quite a sad story really, especially of how Aladdins life is. It does not get much easier when he meets the genie either and is granted three wishes after rubbing the magic lamp.  In this episode of 'Right Your Own Story', I chat about Aladdin, his relationships, his life, and his adventures, including s...

A common question I get asked a lot is, "So, what does Hypnotherapy actually feel like"? Many think it is like something you see in Hollywood films, maybe being out of control, forced to do something you don't want to do, being fast asleep or even similar to someone in a coma!  The truth is, it is like none of those things at all. So in this episode of 'Right Your Own Story',...

In this episode of 'Right Your Own Story,' I go into the most common question I get asked as a hypnotherapist: Can anyone be hypnotised? The short answer is YES. I also explain how to prevent or stop this happening. When seeing a Hypnotherapist for therapeutic reasons, intentionally preventing yourself from going with the process can greatly impact on the success you are actually wanting t...

In episode thirteen of 'Right Your Own Story', I talk about why we dream. Dreams are so fascinating and very revealing too.  They are an inroad into the subconscious mind and a view into our processing.  I also explain why dreams can turn into nightmares and why we later forget what we have been dreaming about too.  If you do have trouble getting off to sleep, here is a YouTube link for a...

In episode twelve of 'Right Your Own Story', I talk about a story from the Bible - 'The Parable of The Three Talents'. (For reference, it comes from Matthew 25:14-30 ).  Although I am not religious myself, I really do like this story. Without giving information away as a spoiler in these show notes about the actual story itself, I do want to mention the underlying message. If you e...

In this episode of 'Right Your Own Story' I talk about the film 'The Wizard Of Oz', made famous by Judy Garland in 1939. The film is full of lessons we can learn from as the characters doubt themselves, their capabilities, and their own power, so they are not exactly a recipe for success ................ until something changes within them. Perhaps you can identify with some of the...

In this episode of 'Right Your Own Story', I tell a true fact about crabs in a bucket and a certain thing they do when one tries to leave! It's behaviour can easily be seen to transition into what 'we' may feel if we try to leave a situation, either personally or professionally, and what the possible results can be, feel or seem like. Can you identify now or in your past with t...

In this episode of 'Right Your Own Story', I talk about a statement I hear a lot: I am too old to change. Perhaps you have even heard yourself saying this? I tell a true story of how this came up during a casual conversation with someone and how that conversation then progressed as we 'went down the rabbit hole', playing a little mental game to test its validity. The realisation th...

In this episode of Right Your Own Story, I tell a story of 'The Trouble Tree'. Stress from our everyday lives can easily leak over into other aspects of our lives too, sometimes impacting those closest to us that just don't deserve, want, or need it. It can impact our sleep, eating, and behaviour and lead to further stress too, so it is not an ideal situation to leave unchecked. In thi...

In this latest episode of 'Right Your Own Story' I talk about a fairly unknown law - The Law of Vacuum. This is only a short episode, but don't let that deceive you. It is a very powerful law. Have you ever cleared out your wardrobe, got rid of some clothes you just don't wear anymore, and made some space?  What did you do with the new found space? I bet you filled it up again with...

In this podcast episode of 'Right Your Own Story', I give a little bit more detail about my background and how I have nearly died, twice! One I can't remember at all as I was a small baby, and another which I definitely can. These incidents have, without doubt, shaped my life into the version I am now. Please feel free to Like, Share, Subscribe and share with a friend or two if you thi...
