Hypnotherapy works! Yes, ladies, it's true! Menopausal hot flushes and lack of sex drive can be completely eradicated in just ONE session! And in the rare instances that they do come back we can just do it again!!!
No-one (certainly not me) is implying that the hot flushes are all in your head - but we do know that the mind and body are linked. If you're suffering with hot flushes and night sweats then maybe it's time to try something different?
Did you just get out of the habit of bothering about sex? Did you "go off it"? Are kids and work and tiredness stopping you? Well Hypnotherapy can help bring the spark back into your love life! And again, you'll only need one session!
Come on ladies, get the best out of your lives. Give me a call on 0113 380 1758 and I'll explain how!

Four months later...
I can't believe it's been so long since I blogged!
I am coming up to my anniversary! In July it will be 8 years since I started Break the Habit!
My "new year's" resolution is to blog more often!
Every day starts a new year really doesn't it? Every day is the first day of the rest of our lives.
As this isn't a rehearsal (at least we don't think so), and we may never get the chance to live again (I use the word "may" here because how can we really know?!!) perhaps now, today, is a good time to start living!
None of us know how long we've got - so make today the start. The beginning. The performance as opposed to the rehearsal.
Whatever you've been planning or putting off. Whatever you know you should do. Do it now. Or at least take the first step. Or at least decide to start tomorrow.
If I can help you then I will. Call me on 0113 380 1758. As Nike put it so well. Just do it!

Frequently Asked Questions
The best way to have your specific question answered is to call me. I am always happy to talk through what I do and how it works so that when you come to see me you are completely happy with the processes I use - and ready to get the results you want!
However, here are a few questions that are most frequently asked - and my answers!
Q. Can anyone be hypnotised?
A. Yes . Anyone who wants to be hypnotised can be as long as they are a) not on drugs and b) able to understand the process.
Q. Does it work?
A. Yes! This is a popular question and one that I sometimes find hard to answer politely! My answer can be from "yes, look at the testimonials on my website - and many others' sites" through "yes, if you want it to work" and "yes, but there is no it, no magic" to "yes, this is what I do for a living" You may notice that all the answers start with "yes". If you are unsure please call me and let me convince you!
Q. Is every hypnotherapist the same?
A. No. Everyone uses different methods and processes. I use NLP within hypnotherapy which is different from pure hypnotherapy.
Q. How do I choose which hypnotherapist to see?
A. Look at their website and particularly their experience. How long have they been working professionally? How many clients have written to them with feedback? Do they have an office or work from home? Do they do lots of things or are they specialists? Speak to them on the telephone and see if you like them! You can make your own decision who you would prefer from this information.
Q. Do I go to sleep in the session?
A. Well sometimes people do - because they are so relaxed! But hypnosis is not sleep, just very, very relaxed. Most people will be hear everything although they may not remember everything! If you can't hear or see or feel anything that's not hypnosis - you're dead!
Q. How many sessions will I need?
A. For Stop Smoking just one session is enough for about 95% of my clients. The rest take two!
For Weightloss it depends how many habits you need to change which is why I offer a Special Package of 4 sessions with the 4th being free.
For phobia and anxiety often one session will produce a complete or massive change. Some people will need two sessions. Occasionally someone will need more than two but this is rare.
The Stress Relief session on CD can often help to reduce the number of sessions and I teach my clients processes they can use, anytime, anywhere so they don't need me any more!
Q. How long does a session last?
A. I allow 90 minutes in my diary for every session. Most need between an hour and an hour and a half.
Q. Why aren't your prices on your website?
A. I don't want anyone to decide on whether or not to get help for any problem simply by looking at the price. How much something is worth to you depends on you, and how much you want the result. I'm not the cheapest - and I don't believe you want to see the cheapest!
Q. How much does a session cost?
A. The cost of a session depends on what we are doing at that session so it's best to telephone for prices.
Q. Can you come to my house to see me?
A. I may visit a client where it is absolutely impossible for them to come to me. Please ask for details.
Q. Can I get help with payment?
A. Yes, there are several health insurances that will pay all or part of your hypnotherapy cost. These include HealthShield and the Railway Benevolent Fund.
Q. Will my doctor pay for my session.
A. I am registered with the NHS and offer this service. You need to ask your doctor if he is willing to pay from his budget.
Q. I don't live in the area but would like to see someone like you. Can you recommend anyone?
A. I currently only recommend Elaine Marsh in Henley on Thames and Marilyn Charlton on the Isle of Wight. Details for both are on my website. They both trained with me and use the same processes.
Q. Do you give discounts to clients if they want other sessions?
A. Yes, I automatically give a client a £20 discount on further sessions.

Special Offers and surviving Christmas
I thought I'd start with the Special Offers so you don't have to trawl down looking for them.
What a nice person I am.
Book now for January to Stop Smoking or Lose Weight. Pay half the usual deposit before Christmas and the balance at your appointment and get £10 Cashback.
So now a few tips of how to cope at Christmas....
For my past clients the answer is easy - use your Stress Relief CD as often as possible to keep those stress levels down! That way you won't do anything you shouldn't (you know what I mean) and blame it on stress!
New clients can get a copy of the CD by calling 0113 380 1758 and ordering a copy for just £10 including p&p pr e-mailing julie@breakthehabit.co.uk
Tips for Health over the Holidays
Eat before you go out so you don't eat too much at that Christmas Buffet!
Have a glass of water in between each glass of wine - avoid the hangover and the empty calories!
Eat breakfast to get your metabolism going
Go for a walk - walk fast then normal speed fast then normal - to use up some of the excess calories
Never miss a meal. If you're going out to eat don't skip another meal - you'll just be hungrier and eat more!
When you're eating at home have loads of salads, vegetables and protein to balance off the Christmas junk!
Avoid fizzy drinks that are just sugar (or even worse aspartame and chemical sweeteners) and sip water throughout the day.
Have a glass of water first thing to wake you up (add lemon juice for an extra zing!)
Eat slowly, savour the food, stop when you're full (it's waste if you eat what you don't need or want).
Make yourself feel good and be grateful you're having such a great Christmas. Give to charity.
The big question now is "Will I write more before Christmas?" Maybe!

November already! Freedom!
So I seem to have missed October completely!
As I've said before, people who write blogs every day obviously have nothing else to do! But I am now going to be using my blog a lot more....because I'm ready to share with my readers lots of interesting information, tips, techniques and, most importantly THINGS THAT WORK!
Just about everyone I speak to could do with a bit more money. Some people feel they can't afford to come and see me because they put their health and well being too far down their list of priorities. Now I could help these people by cutting my prices or giving discounts but that wouldn't help me - and it wouldn't really help them! Why should I earn less money because you spent your on cigarettes or booze? Of course I do give discounts and special offers - but I like to do that for people with depression and stress or debilitating phobia. I would prefer to help everyone else by passing on the ways that I've learned to attract money.
So why would anyone want more money? We really want money so that we can buy things, and do things and have things that we wouldn't be able to buy, have and do if we didn't have that money! Money is just the tool. What money really brings us is freedom!
Here's an example. Let's take someone who want to stop smoking. (That may be you?!) The first question I ask them is WHY do you wan to stop smoking? Now most people will talk about their health, or their kids, or the horrible smell. Many will say because it's costing them a fortune! For example, if you're 50 and smoke 20 a day and stop today, by the time you retire you'll have £30,000 in the bank EXTRA. I don't even want you to think about the £50,000 or more you'd have right now if you hadn't started smoking in your teens!
If you want to stop smoking because of the money then you absolutely HAVE TO have something that you want to do with that money that is MORE IMPORTANT than smoking.
If you're not a smoker maybe you're thinking that this doesn't apply to you. But if you want to lose weight you'll save money (chocolate and take-ways and crisps and wine are the expensive stuff you can cut down or out).
If you're stressed or have a phobia it's not maybe about money - but about TIME. How much time are you wasting of your precious, one and only, life?
So, here's what I believe. We all want freedom. Freedom to work or not. Freedom to buy nice things. Freedom to give to others our time and money. Freedom to do what we want to do.
So I'd like to share with you what I've been spending my "spare" time doing this week.
I have been reading a great new book by a guy called Joe Vitale. It's called Attract Money Now and you can get it, absolutely free. This man so wants you to be wealthier - and free - that he's giving the book away. And I want that for you too! So go and download the book. Then read it. Then DO WHAT IT SAYS it's free at www.attractmoneynow.com

Foods for your moods
What, two posts in one day! Well I thought I'd spoil you a bit! I wanted to talk about stress and depression. I often speak to people who stopped smoking on their own for weeks, months or even years and then started again because of stress (as if smoking would reduce stress!!). I often speak to people whose lives are so stressful they drink too much and eat badly(as though that's going to help!). Here's a few ideas about how you can use food to help you feel better and reduce stress (and depression).
Eat (or take as a supplement) omega-3 Fats: These fatty acids are essential to your brain but we don't tend to get enough from food. More omega 3 in the blood means more serotonin - which makes you feel happier! You need a regular intake of oily fish or flax seed if you're a vegetarian.
Get more Vitamin D - and that means get out more! Sunshine is the best way of getting vitamin D so get out there for as long as possible, as often as possible.
Get enough B Vitamins: Vitamins B6, B12 and folate also help to produce serotonin - yes, the "feel good" stuff.
Get more selenium - one brazil nut a day will give you your daily intake and low levels of selenium are associated with increased depression - so go nuts!
Eat your five a day - antioxidants in fruit and vegetables keep you healthy - and happy!
Make sure you're getting enough tryptophan because it helps produce... yes, you guessed it! serotonin. You get it from turkey, eggs and beef - or if you're vegetarian spinach, beans and dark leafy greens. (Interesting..when I spell checked this the checker wanted me to change tryptophan into trepidation - completely the opposite!)
Reduce your sugar intake and eat low GI carbohydrates - brown rice, brown bread. Sugar actually uses up your B vitamins and chromium stopping them from helping you feel good!
And as I add to all my "hints and tips" : Drink more water!
Look after yourself - and have a good day!

HRT and Lung disease
I felt I needed to share this information that's been in the press in the last few days - just incase you missed it.
Research has shown that women taking HRT are more likely to die of lung cancer than those not taking HRT. This doesn't mean that if you take HRT you are more likely to get lung disease - but if you do get it then you are more likely to die from it.
This of course has tremendous implications for menopausal women who smoke.
You have two choices. Stop HRT or Stop smoking. Actually, you have a 3rd choice - die young.
I already have concerns about HRT so if you can live without it then I'd recommend this anyway (did you know HRT was derived from the urine of mares? How did they get that?!) But of course, there is no doubt about the one thing you can do to save your life - stop smoking. How much more information do you need?
For October only I will give a £20 discount off my stop smoking session to all women between 45 and 55 - whether they take HRT or not. As Tesco would say "every little helps"!
