Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a lovely treatment as its very relaxing for the mind, body and spirit. There is nothing to fear as the therapist is never the one in control of the treatment, you are, whatever is suggested whilst you are in a hypnotic trance and something else comes to you that feels more comfortable use that suggestion as it is right for you. Hypnosis is a state that you are quite often in, when driving down the road you get to your destination wondering how you got there, your mind is in automatic pilot that is hypnosis, the only difference is the therapist is deliberately putting you in that very relaxed state by using an Induction, Deepener and then an Awakener. The Induction introduces you to relaxation in the first place, the Deepener takes you through the script for whatever thought(s) that you want to change and the Awakener brings you back to the moment and the place that you are physically in.

Weight Loss and Dieting
Nearly everyone across the board at sometime in their lives wishes to lose weight. Some wish to lose a couple of stone while others wish to lose a lot more. Dieting alone doesn’t always work or if it does it could also do with a little extra help. Fat thoughts often have a lot to do with the extra weight, or maybe there’s someone in your life that you don’t want to get too close to. Then the Law of Attraction comes into play as, although you may not be aware of it, those fat thoughts are drawing the weight to you as you comfort eat and over a period of time the weight creeps ever on.
Another reason for extra weight can be hormonal, the thyroid controls the metabolic rate and if that works too slowly again the weight goes on. There are control panels in the hypothalamus which can be put up or down according to the problem which helps to bring the metabolic rate back to normal which in turn automatically helps to lose weight. (Signs of Thyroid problems must be checked by your Doctor) I found going to a Kinesiologist paid dividends as I was extremely thyrotoxic and had a thyroxin count of 67 (25 is the usual amount of thyroxin the body produces) so I know how helpful from first-hand experience vitamins and minerals can be an invaluable help for putting right the thyroid. I was told that there was no cure for an overactive thyroid and that I had to either kill it off with Carbimazole, Radio Active Iodine, or have an operation and have it chopped. I asked if there was another way to proceed, but was told no those were my only choices. I had an innate feeling that there was another way forward. I had suffered the situation for about two years so was well down the road of all the symptoms, being out of breath when climbing stairs or going for a walk, having to pace myself when doing gardening or any kind of manual work, shaking from my feet up and not being able to hold a camera still to be able to take good pictures, my eyes were out on stalks and I had a goiter. I had had an allergy to nickel since a teenager and thought I had to live with it but it was all part and parcel of what was wrong with me.
I was very pleased when I was told of an excellent Kinesiologist who was able to tell me, within an hour, what was wrong with me. I had very little manganese in my body and needed 50mgs straight away and my body actually needed 100 mgs but had to wait 3 weeks before I could take the 100 mgs. I then had to add other vitamins and minerals to bring my body back to balance and today my thyroid is working well.
This is just one reason why the thyroid can become overactive, if you do have a problem with your thyroid I suggest you find yourself a very good Kinesiologist and find out if it is a mineral deficiency or some other problem that can be put right by taking vitamins and minerals before taking drastic steps to have it killed off it certainly is not always necessary.
Vitamins and minerals also help the body to work more efficiently.
Vitamin B complex helps with
hormonal problems, menopausal, overweight, thyroid problems both under and overactive.

Headache Relief
Headaches are often brought on by stressful situations, again it maybe the difficult relationship, pressure at work or of work. They mostly stem from the liver being over toxified with toxins and the body’s elimination system not as efficient as it could be maybe the gallbladder is working overtime to produce bile which in turn upsets the stomach which gives the headache.
Another form of headache is that at sometime in the past you fell on your coccyx and damaged it and so therefore there’s pain in the lower back which isn’t there all the time and when there’s no pain in that area you may have a headache instead, all that is happening is the pain is going up the spine to the head, it’s called pain transference, as the spine is one straight line there is nothing to stop the pain from going up through it to your head. There are things that you can do to help yourself, depending on which side of your head you have the headache work on that hand, so if you have a pain on the left side of your head or more leaning that way use your left hand to help clear the pain.
Turn your hand over so that your palm is uppermost and with your right thumb press on the area at the base of the palm nearest to your wrist directly under the little finger. DO NOT PRESS TOO HARD it can be very painful if you press really hard but know that you are relieving pain and not causing pain, do little circular movements on this point, after a while you will find that the pain in that part of your hand stops hurting, when that happens put a little more pressure on, again make sure you don’t hurt yourself but there is a bit of discomfort, carry on doing this until you are pressing heavily on this point without pain then leave well alone.
Now go to the top outside part of your thumb directly beside the point where you cut your nail adjoining the thumb, again do little circular movements not pressing too hard but hard enough that you can feel the discomfort, keep pressing harder each time it feels as though the pressure has been released until you feel that you are pressing really hard but there is no actual pain under your thumb. The first point you were working on is the coccyx point and the second is the headache point. This can be done every evening until there is no pain in either point, then try it every third evening until there is no pain leaving a longer time span perhaps a week between each treatment until you have cleared the pain in the base of the spine and the headache.
If it’s a headache on its own then again think about the side of the head that hurts and use the relevant thumb point and work in the same way as above but this time also working on your right hand again with your palm facing look for your life line and do a thumb walk in towards the middle of your palm approximately to between the middle of your forth and third fingers from directly under the little finger, this is the liver point. The liver is one of the largest organs in your body so it covers quite a large area of your palm. Again, do not press too heavily as this can hurt as you are probably quite angry or stressed about something and anger is always housed in the liver, if you can forgive the person in your mind who has upset you this will also help to ease the headache. If you don’t feel confident enough to do it for yourself find yourself a qualified Reflexologist and get shown what to do, you can then carry on yourself.

Joan's Testimonial
"I have known Sandra Killen for a number of years. She came to my house
once or twice every two months to give me reflexology. Sandra is friendly
.and understanding and the treatment I received was very effective in
correcting areas within my body. When I was struggling with a trying
matrimonial problem her good counselling and visualisations gave me
tremendous help, and I consider her to be admirably suited to help others
to improve their quality of life."
Best Wishes

Emotions
We all go through emotional problems at sometime in our lives, its learning how to deal with the emotional crisis when it arises. Our parents brought us up to the best of their abilities but that isn’t always the way that we ourselves would have liked to have been brought up, or maybe there was a lot of hardship around at the time of your childhood. The inner child often runs the show even in adulthood, these situations are called ‘holds in time’ they are times when a very strong emotion or thought cannot be let go of and so is therefore held onto in the subconscious. That doesn’t mean to say that we are thinking of the situation all the time but it does mean that when something is triggered it is as if an old wound is always opening up and doesn’t want to go away.
Recognizing these situations is half way to healing because once you see the reason something is the way it is and why, then you can deal with it, but up until that point there is very little you can do about it because you may be in denial, or some other reason blinds you from seeing what is really happening. Inner child work in hypnotherapy is very important as it puts the child in a safe place with you as the grown up part of you able to talk to your inner child and that changes the thoughts that were being thought at the time therefore relaxing the mind and body. See relaxation techniques.

Depression
Depression is a very nasty thing to suffer from. Friends and relatives will tell you to ‘snap out of it’, that’s the last thing you want to hear, it’s not something that you can ‘snap out of’ and it’s certainly not something you would inflict upon yourself deliberately. It usually manifests because there is a very unhappy situation around you, maybe the relationship you are in isn’t all it was cracked up to be but you don’t know how to get out of it because of lack of confidence, or, as there are children involved you feel it’s not fair on them to end it as you fear you wouldn’t be able to look after them on your own. The answer is to feel the fear and do it anyway it’s amazing what happens when you take that first big step out into the outside world, the Universe has a way of finding a solution to the problem, that well known saying ‘ask and the door will be opened, seek and you will find’ is perfectly true, but you do have to ask, don’t expect things to fall into your lap because they won’t you have to put the effort in from your side first for things to actually happen, and when you are depressed it feels like an uphill struggle.
There are many, many reasons why we feel depressed it can be through lack of love, thinking that nobody cares or loves us. The well meaning partner actually saps your confidence and leaves you feeling drained and utterly useless; when you do eventually get out of the relationship you are totally amazed when people actually listen to you because you weren’t listened to before. Hypnotherapy or colour and light therapy or both help to get you onto your rightful path again by instilling positive affirmations and wonderful pictures of peace in your mind and colour is also so important as at times when we are depressed we tend to wear drab clothes and not the bright colours that will help to cheer us up.
We are all made up of colours, the colours of the rainbow are very important to us as the chakras’ of our body relates to the colours of the rainbow, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet and Magenta. There are other colours but these are the main ones that are used in Colour Therapy, click here Colour Therapy link.
Another reason for depression is having lost a loved one and you’re feeling that you can’t carry on as your loved one dealt with all the bills and sorted out all the problems that arose around the house, this is then a lack of confidence and self esteem and of course the loss itself. This again can be dealt with by having hypnotherapy.

Back Pain
Depending on the position of the pain either lower, middle or upper as to the underlying negative thought, lower back is possibly lack of financial support or looking for support from a friend, relative or work colleague and depending on which side of the body the pain is whether it relates to a male or female. The best and quickest way to help lower back problems is to know and feel that you can support yourself, that isn’t looking at you’re financial position and thinking ‘how on earth do I support myself when I’m already having difficulties?’ By using hypnotherapy scripts or NLP that back pain can be released.
Middle back pain is where we put all those thoughts that we don’t want to face and so you are procrastinating about it instead of dealing with it, when it has to been dealt with, the stress is released.
Upper back or shoulder pain is “who is putting weight on your shoulders” or “who are you carrying around on your shoulders “ or, you feel you are carrying the weight of the world around on them. Frozen shoulders are either “who are you freezing out” or who is sending you thoughts to freeze you. If you do happen to be suffering from a frozen shoulder then imagine a block of ice on your shoulder and slowly defrost it by using tepid to warm water, never think about it being hot as that will defrost it too quickly and cause more pain, then think about the person who is freezing you, or you are freezing out and forgive them for whatever it is that has gone on between you and send them love and not angry thoughts, as it’s you, that you are hurting.
Thoughts are very powerful things they don’t just stay in your head as we would like to think, we are one with everything and everyone and even though we may not physically know what someone is thinking, our subconscious mind does, and that is why we end up in pain at times.

The Mind Body Connection
Wherever in the body is pain there is a negative thought that goes with it, being able to read what the body is saying a story will emerge, maybe something lurking in the subconscious that has been forgotten is wanting to be healed, comes to the surface, just talking about the problem sometimes is enough to sort it, sometimes it needs a more in depth approach such as hypnotherapy or NLP, but one thing is for sure, when the negative thoughts have been dealt with the pain stops and relaxation takes its place and feels wonderful.

Travel Tips (travel sickness and jetlag)
Rest is necessary to restore the body both mentally and physically to normal homeostasis especially if you will be travelling East to West. Drink plenty of water to rehydrate your body, and don’t drink alcohol on the flight if having to wait in a hot airport with no water available it’s the quickest way to dehydrate your body which will then take a little while to rehydrate, so if you do happen to have an alcoholic drink after being stuck in a hot airport for a few hours, drink water slowly and don’t gulp it down as this will make you feel sick.

Reflexology Treatments
Reflexology is truly a non-invasive therapy whereby the practitioner sees the patient as a whole. A Reflexology treatment, working on the feet has many benefits. It leads to better functioning of the circulatory system, as blood flow is improved, taking all the nutrients to the appropriate parts more efficiently. Blood and nerve supply to muscles improve, aiding and relaxing muscle spasm and tension. Sedentary lifestyles also benefit from a treatment as the venous blood to the heart is increased. The person often finds the therapy warming and exhilarating, as it calms the nervous system, which in turn helps to lower stress levels, so then you are better able to cope. The process of elimination works more efficiently, so that there is no accumulation of excess waste within the system. The treatment also lessens inflammation, pain, swelling, heat and redness, which may occur as a reaction to the body’s response to injury, in reflexology there is no need to touch the impaired part as cross reflexes are used.

Hypnotherapy treatments
Hypnotherapy is often thought of in terms of Stage Hypnosis where the client seems to have no control over the treatment being received, which can be very frightening, nothing could be further from the truth. You are often going into hypnosis without even knowing it, when driving your car for instance, you are often driving on auto pilot and wonder how you got to your destination without being aware of how you got there, this is known as an altered state of consciousness where you are very relaxed and aware of everything around you but seem to be somewhere else.
Here are some of the benefits of Hypnotherapy: if you wish to stop smoking one of the best and easiest ways is to have 3 hypnotherapy treatments, the first one prepares the way for you and gives you some useful affirmations. The second treatment involves using specific scripts to stop you from smoking and the third treatment answers any questions or queries that you may have and checks that you are ok with everything. One word of warning though, if you do wish to stop smoking make sure you are doing it for the right reasons and not to please a partner or close loved one, as your mindset will be one of not really wanting to do it. If you are a chocoholic and want to give it up then that is also possible. I am pleased to say I have had 100% success, but the same criteria applies as for smoking to do it for yourself and you only. Emotional trauma, Inner Child work, Anxiety, Guilt, Grief, Premenstrual Syndrome, Gastrointestinal Disorders, Skin Problems, Aches and Pains.

A.D.'s testimonial
Dear Sandra,
I am writing to thank you for the hypnotherapy sessions you gave me. Since my divorce I have had some trouble trusting people and allowing them to enter my life, I have not tried hypnotherapy before and never saw it as an answer to my problems, but after doing some research over the internet it gave me an insight to try it. After all, what more could I lose?
I am pleased with the results we have achieved. The red balloon script has given my confidence a huge boost and I am feeling better than ever. I can now go out and meet new people without holding back, I feel ten years younger!!
I would recommend Sandra to anybody who wants to improve personal development.
Thanks once again
A. D.
