  • Quiet the overactive mind

  • Reduce stress, tension and bedtime anxiety

  • Reframe negative sleep associations

  • Interrupt the cycle of insomnia

  • Support the brain to return to calm, restful states

  • Build healthier sleep patterns and night-time rhythms

By soothing the mind and reducing unhelpful thought patterns, hypnotherapy deep sleep sessions help the brain adopt a more restful state where natural sleep can occur.

Hypnotherapy Can Help You With:

  • A racing mind at bedtime

  • Waking frequently or too early

  • Stress, worry or emotional tension preventing sleep

  • Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep
