INTRODUCTION
I arrived at Old Town Hypnotherapy with my usual doubts about how anyone could help me with my basket of anxieties. However, after an hour’s FREE introductory session, I now feel a sense of clarity in my own awareness of what the problems are and what is needed to address them.

Is Ecotherapy seasonal?
Ecotherapy is a year round therapy, even in the depths of the British winter there are many benefits to getting outside and being active.
What’s the point of getting out into nature?
Doctors can advise exercise as a remedy for some mental illness, Mind.org.uk has completed a five year study into the benefits of ecotherapy, but why is exercise and nature so beneficial?
Can Hypnotherapy help anxiety?
Can hypnotherapy actually help anxiety. A review of scientific studies suggests that hypnosis can help, but hypnosis is a tool that must be used alongside proven therapeutic techniques for anxiety to have any long term benefits.
Why is anxiety on the rise?
One in four people, that’s a quarter of us, will at some time experience mental health problems during their life. It’s an astounding statistic from the World Health Organisation and according to a report by Mind there has been an increase from 15.5 per cent in 1993 to 26 per cent of adults reported having ever been diagnosed with at least one mental health problem in 2014. Many mental health problems including OCD, self-harm, eating disorders, insomnia and many physical problems are anxiety related, so why is anxiety increasing so rapidly.
Are Anxiety and Depression the same?
At first glance anxiety and depression are very similar, they feel different; anxiety being fearful and worried whilst depression is feeling miserable, but you can have both at the same time. They are in fact interestingly similar and in this article we going to have a look at some of the similarities and differences both in the way they develop and in the way they are cured.
When Anxiety Strikes
This is the third instalment of my mini series on anxiety in which I’m going to give you some top tips for dealing with anxiety when it strikes, but also ultimate strategies to reduce the positive feedback loop that’s creating the anxiety described in the last article ‘Where does anxiety come from?’
Where does anxiety come from
In the last article ‘Will anxiety ever go away?’ I described the typical characteristic thought patterns the primitive part of your brain displays when anxiety arises and why it can feel like a life sentence. In this article, for those of you who like to understand the science and what is happening to you psychologically and biologically, I’ve gone in depth with the science of the stress response as, for many, it helps knowing it is a normal physiological response that has an on/off switch. So, here we go, sit tight for the science…
Will Anxiety Ever Go Away?
For those suffering from anxiety (or depression) it can feel like a life sentence, but the ironic truth is that the characteristic thought patterns associated with these conditions are what manifest those no hope feelings and despair. Anxiety can and will go away when you develop the skills and strategies to interrupt the negative thought pattern loop. This video is the first in a three part series about how to help anxiety.
How to help anxiety & depression
One of the fundamental concepts involved in helping anxiety and depression is understanding our human blue print of how we were designed to live. Modern life has developed so rapidly in the last thirty years that our brain can’t keep up, but we can learn how to take our blueprint and emulate how to live in a mentally healthy way. Today’s video explains these fundamental concepts and what you can do about it.

How to Help OCD
OCD afflicts many people in many different forms and to a greater or lesser extent, but when starts to take over and affects those around the person afflicted it’s perhaps time to do something about it. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder can be physical habits or obsessive thought patterns, with the latter being more common but probably less observed and just as intrusive in one’s life. You can cure OCD, but not by focusing on the issue, a desensitisation approach is outdated, traumatic, not necessary and doesn’t work for thought OCDs, allowing the symptoms to fade away is a much less painful solution and easier to do than you think.
