The Sports Success Mindset

by Dan Regan | Sep 7, 2015 | Hypnotherapy Hypnosis and NLP

I love working with sports people – whatever their sport and whatever their current level – they all have one thing in common – they want to perform to the best of their ability and to the level they know they can.

Recently I’ve been working with footballers, runners and many other athletes to help them harness their self belief, motivation and inner drive to succeed.

Because just as with other areas of our busy lives, things can get in the way of performing 100%.

Yet, as they and many others have discovered, you can soon have the confidence, motivation, self belief and fulfillment of being the ‘real’ you when you want to.

Sarah overcomes her driving anxiety

by Dan Regan | Sep 3, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Driving anxiety is one of the more common fears that people come to me for help to resolve, whether it’s panic attacks during lessons, anxiety about the driving test or anxiety about driving after they have passed their test.

I remember when I first started lessons – I’d never been in the driving seat before and in control of (what seemed to me) a massive, powerful piece of metal! However that worry soon passed with practice and all went well during and beyond my test.

However, for others lessons can be an anxiety fuelled nightmare. Some clients dread their lessons and I have helped clients who suffered with panic attacks which meant they couldn’t even start the engine.

For others I have helped, they have passed their test and ‘know’ they can drive but they do all they can to avoid it – and the more they avoid it, the more their driving anxiety grows.

Coming Soon – Anxiety No More

by Dan Regan | Aug 26, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

I’m very excited to confirm that, in a couple of weeks’ time, I’ll be heading into the recording studio to professionally record the audios for my upcoming product – Anxiety No More.

Following recent user testing, I now have all I need to produce these powerful anxiety busting audios that will help you eliminate your anxiety and start feeling calmer, more confident and in control of your thoughts and feelings.

Combined with a 40 page manual, there will be three MP3 audios – an introduction to anxiety, the anxiety no more hypnosis session and a bonus confidence boosting MP3.

Fear of Needles and Blood

by Dan Regan | Aug 8, 2015 | Phobias and Fears

Recently I went to give blood for the second time in Ely – something everyone I’ve spoken to agrees is a useful and valuable thing to do. So what stops so many people actually taking an hour out and giving blood?

Many people I’ve spoken to tell me they have a fear of needles or blood or are worried about fainting afterwards. And of course, needles, blood and the possibility of fainting are certainly part of the process! In fact, while I was there, one person did pass out despite being a regular blood donor, and another person felt faint and had to rest for a while.

I remember the first time I gave blood – afterwards I went a bit dizzy and had to sit down for a while. But it soon passed, and just like the lady who did faint, I was soon up and on my way again feeling fine.

Action Replay

by Dan Regan | Jul 23, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Do you dwell on events that have already happened and make yourself feel bad?

Maybe you play over the things that didn’t go so well or even start to imagine that maybe you said or did something wrong.

And as you replay all those not so great moments you can start to feel bad within yourself and about yourself. You may even project it forward and feel anxious about the next time you are in such a situation or around those same people.

If you are fed up of using your imagination to make you feel bad then do this:

Never Give Up On Yourself

by Dan Regan | Jul 22, 2015 | Confidence and Self Esteem

Have you given up on yourself already? Or maybe if you don’t get it right first time you decide there is no point and too difficult so what’s the point.

I remember watching my daughter learning how to walk for the first time. She fell over, got back up and tried again. And then she feel over again but she kept going until she had mastered it.

Yet if a baby thought like most adults, she would fall over, decide she couldn’t do it, think she was a failure and bum shuffle her way through into her adult life!

Did You Inherit Your Anxiety?

by Dan Regan | Jul 9, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

According to a recent study, depression and anxiety could be inherited. According to the researchers, the brain function that underlies anxiety is inherited from your parents.

Some of the headlines seemed to suggest that people with anxiety should just shrug their shoulders, accept that they inherited their anxiety and wait for more research to lead to some pills they can take. After all, if anxiety is hereditary then what are you going to do about it? It’s just your lot.

However, reading beyond the headlines, the research does go on to indicate that there is plenty of room for experience and environment to have a say in whether you develop a full blown anxiety disorder. In fact, the research seems to suggest that only about a third of anxiety related tendancies could be explained by family history.

So it seems you can’t just go and point at your mother and father and say “it’s all your fault!”

You Are Feeling Sleepy!!!

by Dan Regan | Jul 9, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Do you have trouble switching off at night and letting go of the day, when all you want to do is get to sleep and get some rest?

If you struggle with anxiety and stress, you may well struggle with sleep – it’s like in those quiet moments when you aren’t distracted and keeping yourself busy, your mind decides to run through all the things you’ve been feeling anxious and worried about. The more you think about them, the more agitated, frustrated and awake you become.

Recently, a pretty incredible number of people have been telling me that they now use my free rapid relaxation audio to get to sleep or help them get back to sleep if they wake up in the night.

The Bad News Daily

by Dan Regan | Jul 4, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Have you subscribed to the Bad News Daily?

Are you spending your day focussing on all the things that aren’t how you want them to be in your life – on all the worries, stresses and bad news in your life, other people’s lives and in the world?

When you feel anxious, it’s easy to focus on all the worries.

And the more you focus on them, the worse you feel. It becomes a self-feeding cycle and it may even feel like you have to find something to worry about.
