Working successfully in the personal development field, we have a variety of fabulous tools at our disposal that we can tailor to deliver successful outcomes for just about any individual or group situation.

Here are the principal approaches that we love to work with because of the high success rate they deliver:

Neuro Linguistic Programming
Neuro Linguistic Programming, or NLP, is often described as the “study of human excellence”.

NLP was developed over 30 years ago and is based on the examination and analysis of the behaviour and thinking styles of successful people in a wide range of fields such as business, education, sales, therapy, sport and personal development.


By exploring the relationships between the structure of how we think and experience the world (neuro), how we communicate (linguistic), and our patterns of behaviour and emotions (programmes), NLP has the ability to transform lives.
The many and varied techniques of NLP have been successfully developed to:

Relieve chronic stress and burn out
Clear past trauma and negative experiences
Change limiting beliefs
Overcome fears and phobias
Build confidence and self esteem
Enhance business and sports performance
-and generally give you more flexibility and choice in your life, where you can access a more compelling future and reach your full potential.                                                 
NLP techniques are immensely powerful and are used extensively in Life and Business Coaching, performance enhancement and in any areas where people want to achieve a higher level of excellence.

Emotional Freedom Techniques
The Discovery Statement in EFT says that “The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system.”
The mind-body connection is extremely important in this amazing energy technique. Our unresolved negative emotions are major contributors to most physical pain and disease, and can be responsible for self sabotage, procrastination, phobias, anxiety and more.

In the hands of a skilful practitioner, EFT works rapidly and effectively - and often works where nothing else will.

Working with the body’s energy system, EFT (also known as Meridian Tapping) is an amazing tool for unblocking negative thoughts, beliefs and past traumas.

Based on 1,000’s of years of eastern traditions and Albert Einstein’s theory that everything, including our bodies is composed of energy, EFT is an unique version of acupuncture (but without the needles). It uses the fingertips to tap gently on certain meridian points (mostly on the face and hands), whilst focusing on the issue to be addressed.

Tapping, whilst simultaneously engaging our neurology, through using thought and speech, in relation to the issue, creates a shift in the body’s energy system allowing us to heal, physically and emotionally.

EFT has proved an excellent modality in group trainings as well as one to one.

As it is so quick and easy to learn, it can also work brilliantly as a self help tool for issues as varied as physical pain and discomfort, food cravings and emotional distress or anxiety.

For more complex issues it is advisable to work with a trained practitioner, who can use detective work to uncover hidden aspects of the problem that the client may not even be conscious of.

EFT also works equally effectively by telephone. The client, if new to this therapy, is provided with a map of the tapping points and the process takes the same form as a session face to face. This provides enormous flexibility and is extremely practical for those clients at a distance or who are unable to travel. For more information on EFT, please email: info@energies4life.com

Clinical Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy employs the induction of perfectly safe and natural hypnotic states or “trance”.
We all experience trance as a matter of course, nearly every day. Have you ever been so involved reading a book or watching a movie that you lost all track of time? Have you ever arrived safely at your destination and been unable to remember part of the journey? Have you ever become lost in thought while staring at a log fire, listening to music, or whilst in a peaceful, natural environment? These are all forms of trance.

A trance is simply an altered state of awareness. Whilst in a trance we can access the unconscious mind and influence such areas as personal development, problem resolution and self healing.

Our conscious mind (which makes decisions, reacts to new situations and holds short term memory) disengages when in a trance, allowing us to communicate directly with the unconscious mind.

The unconscious mind controls our habitual actions, long term memories, emotions, imagination and our central nervous system. In communicating directly with the unconscious mind, we are offered amazing opportunities to explore existing potentials and resources and this can lead to the transformation of self limiting behaviours or beliefs.

As with EFT (above), hypnotherapy works brilliantly one to one and can also be very effectively incorporated into a group training or workshop environment. We often teach self hypnosis in our workshops as this is an excellent self help tool for issues as diverse as weight loss, stress management, quitting smoking, low self esteem, anxiety and more.
