The Journey Continues: Reflecting on Our Mind-Gut Workshops and What's Next

I have been reflecting on the July and September Mind-Gut workshops, and I am genuinely very happy with how they unfolded. There was real curiosity in the room, and participants were genuinely engaged with the material.
What Made These Workshops So Powerful One of the things I loved most was watching the transformation in how hypnotherapists approached their practice. These were professionals who already understood the power of the mind, but they came with genuine curiosity about the mind-gut connection eager to expand their toolkit and better serve their clients.
What struck me most was the caliber of practitioners in the room. Every single hypnotherapist brought real questions, real cases, and a willingness to dive deeper into how they could help their clients with gut-related issues. There were no surface-level conversations here just authentic exploration of how thoughts, emotions, stress patterns, and digestive health are intrinsically linked, and how hypnotherapy can be a powerful tool in addressing these issues.
The lightbulb moments as well as reconnection was great to witness. Practitioners left understanding new approaches, new language, and new techniques they could take directly into their client sessions. The conversations and feedback that continued after each workshop showed me how energised they felt about bringing this knowledge back to their practice. 
The Learning Never Stops After 30 years of working with people across Europe, Asia, South America, and now here in Australia, I am reminded daily that healing and learning happens when we create safe spaces for curiosity. My aim was to provide that space. Every question asked, every "aha!" moment, every practitioner who left feeling more confident in their work it all reminds me why this work matters so deeply and how much I enjoy giving workshops!
What was lovely about these sessions was that for some hypnotherapists, the workshops were a powerful reminder of what they already knew a reconnection to principles and approaches they'd perhaps not used for a while For others, it was brand new territory. But for everyone, there was a consistent outcome: they left feeling genuinely confident to work with clients presenting with mind-gut issues. That confidence is everything. When practitioners feel assured, their clients feel it too.
And here's what I've learned: fellow hypnotherapists are keen to learn, to discover and practice with each other forming practice follow up groups as well as making friends! They are ready to expand beyond traditional approaches and offer their clients a more holistic path to wellbeing. They are ready to confidently navigate complex issues whether it's the mind-gut connection, breaking seemingly hard habits, or exploring the transformative potential of working with colour therapy. When these modalities come together, real change happens.
What's Coming Next Based on the enthusiasm from these workshops and the feedback I have received, I am thrilled to share what's unfolding:
Breaking Bad Habits Workshop — on January 31st. If you've been wanting to understand the patterns that keep you and your clients stuck and learn practical strategies for real, lasting change, this is for you. Drawing on three decades of therapeutic work, this workshop explores how our habits are formed and, more importantly, how we can rewire them and help clients find that relief and positive reset.
Mind-Gut Workshop Round 3 — March is calling, and so is round 3. For those who couldn't make the first two rounds or want to go deeper, this is your invitation.  I can't wait to bring this fun integrative experience to a new group of curious, committed participants.
The Future is Bright — I am also in the planning stages for something completely new. Imagine combining the power of Hypnotherapy with Colour Therapy two modalities that work with your subconscious and nervous system in fascinating ways. Colour has been used for healing across cultures and centuries, and when combined with hypnotherapy, it opens up profound avenues for transformation. This is early days, but the vision is clear, and I'm in the research and planning phase now. If this resonates with you, stay tuned. You'll be the first to know.
An Invitation to You Whether you've experienced one of my workshops or you're curious about what's next, I want you to let you: the work we are doing together is about discovering genuine balance in body, your mind, and your life. It's about understanding ourselves more deeply through a lens of compassion and curiosity.

If you've been on the fence about taking part, now is the time. Whether it's breaking habits that no longer serve, exploring the mind-gut connection, or venturing into the world of hypnotherapy and colour therapy there's something here for you and your work with clients.

​What's your next step? I'd love to see you in the room.
