Warwickshire Cognitive behaviour Therapy, Health and wellbeing

If you want to make real lasting change in your life, you need to make sure that

all areas within your life are supporting you in reaching your goals. You need to take time to identify and understand your most important values & needs, so that you can work out what it is you really want, or really NEED from your life.

You have to be happy with yourself, and happiness has to begin from within. When you are honest about what you feel underneath your exterior, whether it is anger, anxiety, stress, pain, grief, guilt or fear, sharing your thoughts and feelings opens a window, and creates connection.

The greatest power we have, is the power to connect with others. Choosing trust…..even when circumstances seem hopelessly lost…..can lead you out of the darkness and back into the light. So don’t be afraid to confront issues, just because they make you feel uncomfortable.

We all deal with emotions in different ways, if a person is under pressure or particularly stressed, they can often be prone to distorting things they see, or misinterpreting events that have happened. The more anxious or depressed they are, the more irrational their thoughts become. This just produces a continuing downward spiral of negativity and resentment.

Once you allow yourself the opportunity to recognise, that it is perfectly natural to feel stressed or under pressure at times, you can learn how to manage those events to your advantage. It is also normal to have feelings of insecurity, or to feel unsure, overwhelmed, weary or weak. It is a true strength and not a weakness, to accept and allow yourself help if you need it.

Coping alone can sometimes be daunting, and when you refuse to acknowledge your difficulties it can also create a 'stuckness' in your life. So learning to deal with any resistances, will enable you to open up your soul, to take responsibility for yourself, and what you do and think.

that effects a persons behavioural patterns. It can range from mild to very severe. Many fears and anxieties may have been rooted deeply in the mind, right back from childhood. Hypnosis can be a powerful tool in strengthening a child's and adults confidence, by removing these symptoms during hypnosis, the anxieties or fears can be safely removed or minimised, and confidence restored.

Making sure you make the right choices for yourself is very important, when it comes to home or career, so within the CBT Structure, we look at how you can Recognise your Purpose within your life, to help you initiate the changes you wish to make in defining the right balance for you.

Your Spiritual growth is also an important factor in your life. Being spiritual doesn't always mean finding your religion, it can be about self-exploration, and this kind of spirituality operates at a very deep level. The important thing is that you must remain in touch with your core values and beliefs and to keep a happy balance between them both, because these will influence the decisions you make in whatever you do. You have to learn to see beyond yourself, to work with your own rhythms and energy and to accept, that with change, success and failure are all parts of the process of moving forward.

Your own mental stamina is incredibly powerful. Your body is capable of reaching the most highest of performances, if you are determined and committed enough for it to do so. Problems arise only when the mind and the body are out of sync. So looking after your mind, body and soul really prepares you for every eventuality life might throw at you……and gives you the strength and confidence to take on those challenges.
