Emotional Hurt and Addictions have certain things in common. Firstly they both can be particularly tricky stop once they have happened and Secondly withdrawal is categorically similar to emotional loss. A Clean Therapy ™ method can be used to deal with both types of problem.

Addictions may be classed as physical, habitual, chemical or a combination of all three. What these all have in common is there is some payback ( a reward ) from a specific activity which results in neurotransmitters being released or blocked. These chemicals may be externally obtained like drugs and alcohol or supplied endogenously. The important distinction is there is a process which an addict will typically go through, typically:

Stimulus, Desire, Activity, Reward

It is the physical and psychological addiction withdrawal that really is the problem. Once the drug is lost to the system there is often a withdrawal counter effect in the body.

Now consider emotional pain. Specifically forms of loss related emotional pain. Here emotional pain is experienced through loosing something or someone precious, having values transgressed or expectations shattered. In essence something that was once present in life is now gone either permanently or temporarily.

When addictive stop there is often an associated withdrawal stage. This withdrawal is very similar to the experience of loss.

Using my Clean Therapy ™ model, a physicalisation and reintegration process in this case. Therapists can deal effectively with the withdrawal element in many cases. And follow up with Clean Generative Change to future orientate clients.

Trance Cafe – Newcastle Hypnosis Practice Group
Wednesday 3rd March

All people at some time in life experience negative states or negative emotions. Usually these will dissolve and dissipate on their own and with this comes the return of a better life.

But sometimes negative feelings persist and stay. These can be feelings like anger, fear, anxiety or confusion to name but a few. Being in a negative emotional state is draining, tiring and over time not at all good for health and wellbeing.

This months Trance Cafe will work with the ‘Drop Down & Through’ process (Overdurf and Silverthorn) which moves you through a series of emotional states until something deep and profound shifts.

November at the Trance Cafe – Newcastle and North East Hypnosis Practice and Supervision Group is Creating A Performance Mindset – Wednesday February 3rd.My good friend Kim Bull of Performing Excellence will host the evening.

High performers from sport, the arts, politics and business often have a certain way they think about their successes, and a different way of thinking about their errors or bad experiences.

We will use the thinking structure of successful performers to create a model for using past successes and learning experiences to create a positive mindset for the future.  As well as having applications for performers, this is also a resource in therapy and change work where a positive mental attitude might be useful.

A way to get deeply in touch with the self and discover the positive purpose and intention behind perceived problematic behaviours, emotions or thinking.

Hypnosis for Health and Healing

The first TranceCafe of 2009 explores and demonstrates hypnotic processes for health and healing. The topics of the evening will explore precisely how to use your unconscious to assist and accelerate physical healing and wellbeing.

This is also about the transmissive effect of working with ‘unwell’ people from a therapist point of view and cleaning up any contamination.

A basic knowledge and experience of hypnosis is required for this session.  If attendees have something physical to work with that is good though not essential. If you have friends that have some physical symptom, fitting the descriptions below and are willing to work in front of the group please bring them with you.

Having consulted your GP, if you have any physical ailments like pain, muscle or back injury, stresses or strains that remain problematic then hypnosis may very well be one way you can re-balance your body.

If you fit this description, want to experience what hypnotic healing may do for you and are willing to work with nigel hetherington in front of the practice group then please contact nigel directly.

Hypnosis for Relaxation and Calmness

December, the traditional month for the almost obligatory strains of Christmas period shopping with non-optional queues and any amount of pre Christmas stress and pressure. Add in a pinch of doom and media gloom of the global credit crunch and simmer. A perfect recipe for increased blood pressure and short tempers.

Wouldn’t it be really good to have some alternatives? Well …

Get down to the final 2008 meeting of Newcastle’s structured hypnosis practice group to engage in varying degrees of trance for relaxation and calmness. Unlikely to change the credit crunch but pretty much guaranteed to make you feel relaxed, calm and find your centre.
