Working with Loss & Grief : Newcastle Hypnotherapy & NLP Practice Group

Hypnotherapy Practice, Hypnotherapy Practice Group, NLP Practice Group, NLP Practice Group Newcastle No Comments »

As potentially depressing as it may be data from the ONS reveals that January and March are the most popular months to die in the UK. We all know that the final reward of life is the natural transitioning into the unknown. Grieving is our natural process or in some sense our ritual in accepting loss and moving forward.

This February the Newcastle NLP & Hypnotherapy Practice Group is exploring some ideas that can help and assist us in both accepting loss, honoring our feelings, emotions and thoughts and after an appropriate time to move forward with gratitude.

The exploration is about loss in general. This can be the loss of a loved human, pet, idea or possession to extend the concept.

One of the concepts for exploration is including the work of Lisa Feldman Barrett on how emotions are made. This is really new information ( 2017 ) and offers the perspective the our emotions are constructed as predictors of our immediate environment and past experience.

Also on the menu is some utilization of Jungs ideas of rational and irrational functions and perhaps a portion of western philosophy. Culminating in a desert of a co-created process to enjoy together.

Newcastle Hypnotherapy and NLP Practice Group : October 2014

Hypnotherapy Practice, Hypnotherapy Practice Group, NLP Practice Group, NLP Practice Group Newcastle, Workshop No Comments »

As Autumn, a season of wonderful change, comes to visit once more I want to explore one of the methods or meta-change models the Lankton’s ‘modelled’ from Erickson.

With a surprisingly simple six step format, this month we will practice both the structure and the content. Inside of this there will be language patterns and themes to fill the content details of each contextual step.


Newcastle NLP Practice Group

 

Knowing and having a variety of meta structures to use in any change work ( not limited to NLP or Hypnotherapy ) is greatly valuable in change work.

This month we will explore a specific meta-structure by practising a variety of language patterns within the meta-structure. The idea being we can all learn without knowing exactly what is being learned and reflecting this way after practice ensure the meta-pattern has been internalised with a future orientated direction.

Generative Trance : Newcastle NLP & Hypnosis Practice Group : 6th February – Nigel Hetherington

Hypnotherapy Practice, NLP Practitioning No Comments »

Most professional change workers will be familiar with parts therapy. Parts are not tangible, they are abstractions or concepts that we tend to realise as aspects of our identity. Sometimes, usually when we experience competing emotions and values it can feel like we are at war with ourselves.

This Trance Cafe practice group is an exploration of how we can go beyond the idea of parts integration and move towards what can be described as ‘transcend and include’ the opposing ideas that keep us stuck or cause problems that manifest in behavioural conflicts.

Hypnotherapy Newcastle

The practice session will focus on a strategy to identify and sponsor the seemingly opposing parts, valuing each aspect of identity, with the intention to include and support both aspects of ourself. This will be accomplished with a physical and psychological frame of experiential reference. Based firmly in the work of Stephen Gilligan, the intention is to develop a process that facilitates the necessary inclusion of opposites, contrast and respectful adoption.

Hypnotic Somatic Parts Integration : Newcastle NLP & Hypnosis Practice Group : Wednesday 5th December – Nigel Hetherington

Hypnotherapy Practice, Hypnotherapy Supervision, Trancecafe No Comments »

Many though not all change workers will be familiar with the concept of psychological parts. We are not really made up of parts or competing ego identities but ‘parts work’ in NLP and hypnotherapy provides a particularly resonant and highly workable model through which to affect lasting and ecological change.

Parts work, though not by that name is present in practically all psychological change process. Parts work comes in many forms such as Freud’s id, ego and super-ego, Jung’s Archetypes of the individual and collective unconscious, Berne’s parent, adult and child and Erickson’s conscious and unconscious mind.

We will also be familiar with common every day phrases that are indicative of psychological parts in action. “The devil made me do it.”, “He sabotaged himself again.”, “It’s like a part of me stopped me doing it.”

This Decembers Trance Cafe will explore a particular aspect of hypnotic parts integrations based on process and techniques from Stephen Gilligans work in Generative Trance. Using our body to represent what can individually be described as two dystonic states, we aim to move rhythmically, in trance, between the two states.

We can represent the problem / solution space linguistically as “I want to do X but Y stops me.” And from this starting point our intention to a neuro-somatic solution in co-created resource space.

Somatic Symptom Space : Newcastle Hypnosis & NLP Practice Group : Wednesday 21st March – Nigel Hetherington

Hypnotherapy Practice, NLP Practitioning No Comments »

This March the Newcastle hypnotherapy group is focusing on the practice of fostering and sponsoring a change process in a mutual therapeutic alliance.  This process with concentrate on creating a space, a safe space where clients can connect with and to their own powerful internal resources with a not to hard, not to soft but middle path into a hypnotic state where change can be supported.

This is an opportunity to create change that is based in a non-verbal experience and has the depth that is more sustainable and general talk based therapies like CBT or counselling. Here the emphasis is on not talking but to create the space in trance where a bodily or somatic representation of the symptom or specific area of intentioned change is to be welcomed and supported and encouraged to evolve in its own organic way.

This process lends itself to working with physical and emotional problems; where a problem is defined as something like a block or barriers to achieving something of genuine benefit. This process will also lend itself to problems of the non physical, non-emotional kind … if such kinds exist at all.

Rapid Hypnosis Inductions : Newcastle NLP & Hypnotherapy Practice Group : Wednesday 16th November – Nigel Hetherington

Hypnotherapy Practice, Trancecafe No Comments »

This November at the Trance Cafe is rapid hypnotic inductions and trance phenomena.

Many hypnotists and therapists are not comfortable with eliciting trance phenomena with their clients in case it doesn’t work. Learning to more carefully calibrate your clients or the people you are hypnotizing will let you know more confidently what kind of trance phenomena you can go for. Trance phenomena like stuck hands, immobile feet, name amnesia or positive and negative hallucinations are all on the cards this month.

Now whether you choose to use these skills for entertainment or for therapy work is up to you. The evening is going to be a fun exploration of rapid hypnosis leading into trance phenomena. With Nigel Hetherington and my colleague John Penman, who is a stage magician and hypnotist.

The evening will consist of lots of rapid induction demonstrations and even more practice for you. Come along and learn how to rapidly induce trance and see how many hypnotic phenomena you can experience in one evening.

Improvisation In Therapy & Coaching : April 20th : Newcastle

Hypnotherapy Practice, Therapist Practice & Supervision, Workshop 2 Comments »

When we are working in the role of a change consultant, therapist, facilitator or coach we do
Have an outcome in mind that is to facilitate a real, honest and empowering environment
Of exploration for our clients. How can we tune into being this creative?

Way too many change consultants can’t get out of their own way, in terms of making a real
Step or going out of their own comfort zone to enable their clients to do the same. What
Can we do to get to grips with getting out of our own way and facilitate real change experience?

There is a real need and requirement to be able to create a context for generative change which is
Enabling and at the same time, truly an honest and very creative place. When we hold a perspective of
Being seriously creative, we can see a clear path to genuinely enabling changes …

Performing arts and drama facilitation expert, Ruth Hindmarsh will facilitate a fun and
Safe space to really be the change consultant you know are, with fun and real purpose.

Within a sequence of exercises, Ruth and myself will integrate play, fun and creativity into tools
And process’s you can easily merge into your professional practice and your life to make your
Sessions and interactions much more creative as well as bringing a smile and sense of something more
Deeply connecting into our work, play time and life as a whole.

Spirituality in Coaching and Therapy : Feb 7th : 7-9pm

Conference, Hypnotherapy Practice, Hypnotherapy Supervision, Therapist Practice & Supervision, Trancecafe 2 Comments »

The more you lose yourself in something bigger than yourself, the more energy you will have.

Norman Vincent Peale

Spirituality In Coaching and Therapy – Newcastle NLP and Hypnosis Cafe Monday 7th February 7-9pm : Gosforth Library Newcastle NE3 3HD : £10 Including Biscuits. Book online below.

When we come direct from heart space we create an energetic connection that surpasses the concept of empathy or our multi-sensory capacity. In doing so we create the neutral void that two souls can share to explore, discover, test, challenge and shift. For us, this is our recipe for lasting and generative change.

So in this café Paula and Nigel will facilitate your unpacking of the deeper and more connecting ways in which yours and our therapeutic alliances work. How they are formed, how they grow and the effect and impact they have on our and the world.

We will open and share our thoughts and processes of how to develop co-created alliances by exploring the concepts of projections and reflections prior to, during and after a dynamic interaction. We will also consider projection and reflection in terms of attracting clients into your life for mutual healing and purposeful learnings.

Every person we meet has something to teach us, and every person has something to say that only they can say. We both believe we attract the clients that will help and be beneficial to our ongoing development. This may also include ‘healing’ your past. viz a vie we meet together to co-create something that is more than mutually beneficial …

From this place we’ll look at working from heart space that dynamically co-creates a change process as being fundamental in effective change and evolution work. We will show you how this offers a place that goes way beyond our understanding of rapport. Indeed it transcends the thoughts that if we shared some common value, belief, outcomes, goals and even purpose we can go anywhere in the relationship.
