School Avoidance Awareness Week.

There is rarely one single cause that is the barrier for a child attending school.
It is often a gradual process of multiple challenges.
Behaviour is usually an indicator that something isn't working and there are signs long before the child is not able to attend.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can form part of the child and parents support, working with the child's strengths, identifying challenges and offering child-led solutions.

Emotional Based School Non Attendance
Isn’t just a lack of resilience or anxious avoidance. That suggests that the issues should be within a child’s capacity, when often they are not and that is the problem.
The reasons a child feels unable to go to school are more than likely down to a lack of autonomy or ability to solve the problem.

Children have a huge amount of resilience and assuming they don’t is actual detrimental to their own self confidence.

Children need autonomy and support to make changes, adjustments and accommodations that allow them to learn and feel safe.

Solution focused hypnotherapy can support both children and parents to understand the barriers to attendance and find suitable solutions to overcome these.
By supporting a child to understand their own needs they are better equipped to find the right solution

How full is your stress bucket? Jen tells us how reducing our stressors or learning how to respond differently to them is a critical part of managing skin conditions and reducing the itch.
Cortisol can be helpful in short bursts, but chronic stress and prolonged cortisol can have a negative impact on our skin, and increase histamine release which is detrimental to those with skin conditions.
The more we itch the more stressed we become and that cortisol is released, learn how to break the stress-itch cycle in our latest episode of Solutions For The Mind - Thriving with a Skin Condition.

We talk about 'Food Noise' In our latest episode of Solutions For The Mind, but what is it?

One of the ways that it can show up is thinking about what you will eat as soon as you wake up, the thoughts around food are familiar and more than likely continue all day.
It might be having just eaten breakfast you begin thinking about what to eat for lunch.
The noise rarely disappears but may be quieter at times and louder at others.
