Using A Christmas Carol To Boost Your Mental Health and Well-Being – Hypnotherapy in Ely and Newmarket

I hope that you’ve had a great festive period and have enjoyed lots of positive moments. Our household succumbed to the flu type bug that is going around which threw all of our well planned plans up in the air!

Now I don’t know about you but every Christmas I love to watch and read A Christmas Carol. I love everything about the story, structure, period and message of the story.  I’m sure I don’t need to revisit the well known story in any detail as we all know that Scrooge was visited by three spirits who help him reflect, review and change his life (although in case it comes up in a quiz remember he was actually visited by four ghosts in total!).

And it’s the sort of structure, that of reflecting upon the past, reviewing the present and planning for the future, that you can use to benefit you own mental health and well-being.

This is something I cover in this short video:

A Christmas Carol and Mental Health

Rather than dwelling upon the past, you can reflect upon the positive times, places and moments you’ve experienced. You can feel good as you reminisce upon these good times while also maybe thinking, if needed, how you can bring more of these moments into your life.

You can spend a few moments evaluating your life now and thinking about how you use your time, energy, focus and thinking. And then considering whether continuing in the same way will bring your fulfilment, satisfaction and happiness in your life or whether there may be some things that you would rather change in some way.

And then you can contemplate your future and how you want things to move forward for you. This may means continuing to do things you’ve been doing or doing more of the things that will cause you to live the life that you want to live. Or it may mean starting to take some action upon your goals and being someone who moves forward in your life.

So that, in the same way that Scrooge benefits from the visit of the three spirits, you can briefly and constructively carry out a similar three steps in a way that you can use to benefit your mental health and well-being. And then just like in a Christmas Carol, you too can move forward into the future along a path filled with possibility and opportunity and positive ramifications for you.

To your health and happiness,
