Here we go, the prep for Calm Pregnancy and Birth CPD!

Many of you know my background is in Midwifery, I worked in the NHS as a Midwife for 12 years (took 4 years for me to gain my Midwifery degree so all in 16 years!) and after that I went on the train with KGHypnobirthing to gain my Hypnobirthing qualification.

Hypnobirthing led me to then train with UK Hypnotherapy Training to become a Hypnotherapist and whilst I rarely see couples for Hypnobirthing now, I do get women who want help staying calm, reducing anxiety and fear during pregnancy and preparaing for birth.

This CPD is ideal for qualified Hypnotherapists who are wanting to feel more confident in supporting pregnant clients through their pregnancies and understand more about how Hypnotherapy can help them reduce anxiety and fear and help then remain calm and in control throughout child birth.

It's also an AHD module.

I'm really looking forward to teaching this one on 16th October and it's a full day CPD!

I've spent today finishing the prep for the Fertility CPD I'll be delivering on September 25th.

I see a very diverse case load of clients relating to Fertility issues in my clinic, and am looking forward to sharing knowledge with fellow Hypnotherapists about how Hypnotherapy can be beneficial to those who are seeking support whilst they are trying to conceive naturally and assisted.

New blog on the website!

It's June, which is headache and migraine awareness month.

Those of us who get headaches and migraines are always aware of them, what they feel like and how to treat them

But sometimes we may not know what causes them.

Randomly, and rather frustratingly we can get them when we are hoping to have time off to relax and enjoy our time off.

My latest blog talks about why they happen and what can help prevent them.

Oh didn't I choose a good week to take off?

Things have been a bit full on behind the scenes, which probably explains why I've been so quiet on the old socials, sorry about that!

I've been busy behind the scenes revising for exams, sitting said exams, prepping to teach 5 CPD's (yes 5 🖐🏼 🤪) for on Women's Health I'll be delivering in September and October, teaching with .online at and and being a dance and cricket mum all over the country.

I've read that back and made myself feel tired, no wonder I needed a week off...

Clinic is back on Monday 1st June and I have some availability if you'd like to book yourself in for an Initial Consultation, or if your due for Hypnotherapy.

Availability is limited, please book in advance to avoid disappointment.

Have a lovely week, enjoy the sunshine 🌞

Don't forget to hydrate 😄

So many women I work with are carrying everything:

• Work.
• Family.
• Mental load.
• Hormones.
• Expectations.
• Worry.

And somewhere in the middle of looking after everyone else… they stop looking after themselves.

They put themselves at the bottom of the priority list.

Putting off self-care.

Anxiety often grows when we’ve been in survival mode for too long.

Our brain starts telling us that everything is a potential threat, and we start feeling anxious and find it harder to cope with what life is throwing at us.

What if this weekend you take just 10 minutes for YOU to:
• Pause
• Breathe
• Ask for support
• Rest without guilt

Small steps towards calm still count

You are allowed to prioritise yourself too.

Even Hypnodog knows it is a good idea to get yourself down to the polling station today...

Big of a busy time at the moment, social media has been taking a back seat whilst I have had my head down and crack on with my studying, light at the end of the tunnel for now, but still time for a ❌ in a box.

My next date for delivering my Working With Women CPD is 11th September 2026

This 4 hour CPD is for all Solution Focused Hypnotherapists who work with women in their clinics (see what I did there?!) and would like to extend their knowledge on:

How hormones and stress impact each other.
How issues like Endometriosis, Polycyclic O***y Syndrome, Ademyosis, PMS and PMDD, Sexual Dysfunction (Vaginismus and Libido) can be benefitted with Solution Focused Hypnotherapy.

We'll take a look at the Menstrual cycle, the hormones, (possibly not looked at this since you were in school so a refresher is always beneficial!) the differences between men and women's brains, how the cycle interacts and is impacted with stress and how we as SFH can support the women we see in our clinic.

Interested?

You can book on now, via https://www.cpht.co.uk/events/7-working-with-women/

This CPD is also part of my 5 Women's Health CPDs Including:
