From a certain point onward there is no longer any turning back. That is the point that must be reached.

I have to be honest and say that the hypnotherapy hasn't been what I expected, or perhaps where we've 'been' in the sessions haven't been what I expected. The hypnotherapist herself is great: warm and open and worthy of trust, yet I've left feeling that nothing has come from the session that couldn't have been achieved from just talking, rather than being 'hypnotised'. Initially, I found this disappointing because it is, of course, natural to hope that new insights will be gained from something like this. I have felt in the past few weeks that I am so close to a breakthrough in finding the root cause of my insomnia and thought....hoped....that hypnotheraphy could provide the necessary aid for me go that one step further. Because I thought I couldn't do it on my own.

But now I realise something. I can do this on my own. These past months in India, finding and intregrating Reiki into my life, have been instrumental in equipping me with the tools, the confidence and the self-compassion that have been vital for this journey I'm taking. Yet perhaps a part of me was still fearful in acknowledging this. Because out there on a clifftop all alone we're exposed to all the elements and it can be a daunting place to be. It's a massive step - firstly to know that the ability to heal and change comes from within, then to truly believe it and finally to live it.
