How To Create Your Own Self Hypnosis

Episode 16 Season 3: How to Create Your Own Self Hypnosis Audio - Step by Step Have you ever wanted to create real, lasting change but using the power of your own voice? Today I'm giving you the tools to do exactly that! In this episode I walk you through exactly how to create a personalised self hypnosis audio that actually works. This is one of the most powerful and underused tools for lasting change at a subconscious level - and it's pretty simple. The Key advantages of self hypnosis are: Customisation: You select the exact words, metaphors, and pacing that resonate with your personal psyche. Zero Resistance: Some folks unconsciously resist an external voice, whereas your brain inherently trusts your own internal narrative. Total Autonomy: It removes dependency on an external person, building deep self-efficacy and confidence in your own mental strength. Instant Availability: You can practice it anytime and anywhere - such as during a sudden spike in anxiety or right before an important meeting. No Financial Cost: Once you learn the basic techniques, the practice is entirely free! Deepened Self-Awareness: The act of guiding yourself forces you to deeply understand your own triggers, emotional patterns, and desires. -- In saying all of this, I should note that working with a trained hypnotherapist provides dynamic, real-time adaptation, diagnostic expertise, and trauma-informed safety that a self-hypnosis recording simply cannot duplicate. While self-made audio is excellent for daily reinforcement, a practitioner acts as an interactive guide to uncover root causes and bypass internal resistance. -- Ready for a deeper transformation with me?

When Life Falls Apart: Parenting Through Trauma, Addiction & Separation Anxiety with Fiona McKellar

Episode 15, Season 3: When Life Falls Apart - Parenting Through a Traumatic Situation with Fiona McKellar This one is raw, honest and deeply powerful. Fiona McKellar spent 20 years as a headteacher - working with some of the most challenging children in the school system. She was amazing at her job and amazing at coping with her own stress... until she wasn't. And then life unravelled. Faced with her husband's substance abuse, the breakdown of her marriage, and her son's severe anxiety and separation difficulties in the aftermath, Fiona found herself stretched far beyond anything her professional knowledge had prepared her for. That experience eventually led her to set up The Wild Child Parent Coach, where she now supports parents of big-feeling, intense, beautifully complex children. This episode is for anyone who has had their world turned upside down - whether by grief, divorce, illness, addiction, or an abusive relationship - and is trying to hold it together for their children at the same time. We cover: 👉🏻 The personal story that led Fiona to leave headship and start again 👉🏻 Why she now supports the whole family unit - not just the child 👉🏻 The importance of self-compassion when life suddenly looks nothing like you planned 👉🏻 How her son's separation anxiety developed in the wake of family trauma - and what actually helped 👉🏻 Fiona's brilliant, practical tips for supporting a child through separation anxiety 👉🏻 Why knowledge alone is never enough - and what really creates change Fiona is warm, wise and super knowledgeable. I think you'll love this one.

My Take On The UK Social Media Ban

Episode 14, Season 3: The UK Social Media Ban - What a result! Also, what does this mean... On the 15th June 2026, the UK government announced that children under 16 will be banned from social media. TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, X etc. Coming into effect Spring 2027. I am really pleased - in the work I do with clients I help a fair amount of stressed parents who are navigating smartphones and addictive apps. A lot are full of regret. But I've been sitting with it... and some questions started to surface that I think deserve some airtime. In this solo episode I share why this moment is historic, why I've been advocating for exactly this, AND why the age verification method being proposed - facial recognition, government ID, biometric data handed to the very platforms we don't trust - is making me uneasy. I feel we kinda need to be reading the small print here. And ask who ALSO really benefits from the infrastructure being built around this ban? Both things can be true. This is a win for childhood. And we should be paying very close attention to what comes next.

Hypnotherapy for the Good Girl - Inner Child Healing for High-Functioning Mums

Episode 13, Season 3: If you were the little girl who got on with chores even when exhausted, kept your emotions hidden, swallowed your anger and earned your place by being endlessly capable - this episode is for you. This guided hypnotherapy session is designed to take you back to the younger version of yourself who learned that being good was safer than being real. The one who was praised for compliance and (unintentionally) shamed for taking up too much space. In this session, I guide your subconscious into a deeply relaxed state where you'll travel through cosmic space and into another timeline - to meet the girl you once were. And to give her what she needed then, and what you still need now. Together we work to: Reconnect with the part of you that learned to over-function in order to feel safeRelease the belief that your worth has to be earned through doing, organising and holding it all togetherHeal the shame around anger, rest and taking up spaceReprogramme the inner voice from relentless self-criticism to genuine self-compassionIntegrate your inner child so she stops running your nervous system from the shadowsSo much of what drives our patterns as mothers - the hypervigilance, the resentment, the inability to switch off - began long before we became parents. This session goes to the root of it. This one might bring up emotions. Be gentle with yourself afterwards. 🤍 🎧 For best results, listen in a quiet, comfortable space where you won't be disturbed. Listen daily for 21-30 days. ✨ Laura's Links: 📲 Find Everything Here 📲 Instagram: @themindfulgeneration 📲 Connect on LinkedIn Brand Partnership & Listener Discount This episode is brought to you by KARRI - the screen-free voice messenger designed to help children explore the world with confidence, while staying safely connected to the people who matter most.

Hypnosis for Letting Go of Perfectionism: For Overwhelmed Mums

Episode 10, Season 3: Releasing Perfectionism - Hypnosis for Overwhelmed & Burnt-Out Mums If the pressure to be perfect has been running your life - the endless striving, the voice that says you're never doing enough, the weight of impossible standards - this is for you. This guided hypnosis is designed to help you loosen the grip of perfectionism and step into a life where self-compassion, progress and ease replace the exhausting pursuit of perfect. In this session, I guide your subconscious into a deeply relaxed state where you'll begin to: - Recognise that your worth was never something you needed to earn - Release the impossible standards you've been carrying: often since long before motherhood - Reprogram your inner voice from criticism to compassion - Embrace progress over perfection - and actually feel it in your body - Step into a version of yourself who rests without guilt and moves through hard days without spiralling So much of motherhood is outside of our control. And when perfectionism goes unchecked, it paves the way to anxiety, chronic stress and burnout. This session helps you interrupt that pattern - at the subconscious level, where it actually lives. 🎧 For best results, listen in a quiet, comfortable space where you won't be disturbed.
