Are you an optional extra in your own life?

Are you an optional extra in your own life?

You may have 101 things that you need to get done today, or a list as long as your arm or maybe you can’t even cope with thinking about how much there is that you need to get done.

So many people I meet give every minute of their time and every ounce of their energy to work, other people and their other responsibilities.

And somewhere down at the bottom of your list, for when you get time to get around to it, you may have something like:

Sorting out your eating habits and losing weight
Stopping smoking
Finding time to relax
Learning to manage stress
Developing more confidence
Or some other change to feel healthier and happier

Because you have so much to do for

How to succeed with New Year’s Resolutions

by Dan Regan | Dec 20, 2012 | Hypnotherapy Hypnosis and NLP

What happened to last year’s resolutions?

According to various studies, somewhere between 40% – 95% of us make New Year’s Resolutions.

Yet around 75% of people will have given up, given in or lapsed within just ten days.

Will you be joining them by January 10^th 2013?

And this year, about 60% of people will make the same resolution that they made last year (and maybe the year before too).

So what goes wrong with New Year’s Reolutions?

This is your life…well, your year anyway

by Dan Regan | Dec 19, 2012 | Hypnotherapy Hypnosis and NLP

As we approach the end of 2012 (where did the year go?!), and before deciding what you want from next year, it’s a useful idea to carry out a brief review of what happened over the last 12 months.

Up and down and round and round…

If you are like most people, then the year will have had its high points, some not-so-high points and all those moments in between.

And often people (not you because you’re reading this) just turn up to their lives and go through each day pretty much like the one before. And it’s a bit late on your death bed to wonder what happened to your life.

So take a few minutes to review 2012 before asking what

How to stay focused for success – part two

by Dan Regan | Nov 19, 2012 | Hypnotherapy Hypnosis and NLP

In the last article I talked about knowing what you want to achieve and how you’ll know you’ve got there.

Yet sometimes the things we want can seem just too big or too far away from where we currently are. The enormity of the task freezes us and stops us even taking the first step.

So here’s an easy tip that’s going to help you.

How to stay focused for success – part one

by Dan Regan | Nov 12, 2012 | Hypnotherapy Hypnosis and NLP

When I tell people I run marathons, I often get asked how I manage to stay focused on what can seem such a huge goal with weeks of training and preparation.

Recently I finished my eighth marathon (around the streets of Great Yarmouth) and wanted to share a few of the things I do to help me stay focused and motivated right up to the finish line.

And it doesn’t matter whether your personal goal is running, sport related or something else – try out some of these techniques and explore how you can apply them to keep you motivated, focused and ultimately successful at what you want to achieve.

Specifi….specifically…specifici….oh I give up!

by Dan Regan | Nov 5, 2012 | Hypnotherapy Hypnosis and NLP

Specifi….specifically…specifici….specificity – is that right? oh I give up!

Sometimes I have a bit of trouble saying the word ‘specificity’ – so I give up.

And it seems giving up when something doesn’t go quite right is a common thing for a lot of people.

Ever tried something and it hasn’t gone how you intended or would have liked? Or maybe the other person didn’t react in the way you thought they would? And that’s assuming you even try to do something and don’t give up before you’ve even begun.

Yet there are some things you can do which give you

Stuck in the past?

by Dan Regan | Jul 27, 2012 | Hypnotherapy Hypnosis and NLP

Sometimes it can be difficult to let go of stuff from the past – wherever we are with our lives right now, it’s like those memories still haunt us and we carry around all the bad feelings that go with them.

They may pop into our heads when we aren’t doing anything else and remind us of an unpleasant experience. They may even stop us from moving on and doing the things we would like to do. And they may even come flooding back with emotions like anger, sadness or guilt and seem a bit overwhelming.

Of course the best thing about the past is

Could you be happier?

by Dan Regan | Jul 16, 2012 | Hypnotherapy Hypnosis and NLP

I’ve been doing a lot of reading recently about how to be happy and happiness.

You only have to walk down the street to get the impression that perhaps happiness is in short supply – people with glum faces acting like the world is out to get them, not saying hello when you greet them and forgetting even the basics like please and thank you.

Now I’m not suggesting we should all go through our day acting as if everything is
