When Annabella Zeiddar was a child, the nurse who measured the weight of all the children in her school assumed that she was overweight because she didn't fit in the charts. Annabella was immediately put on a diet, but in reality was that she was simply quite tall for her age. This led to a life where the perception of food was distorted.

In our interview we will discuss:

• why diets are not sustainable,
• why not feeling 'enough' can push us towards eating to sooth emotional gaps,
• why we cannot stop eating some processed foods once we start
• the cycle of feeling guilty after eating the 'wrong foods' and then eating more to soothe the guilt
• why demonising all foods is not helpful
• why restrictions make us want things more
• the triggers behind emotional eating

Annabella has been featured in Forbes and has had mentions in Good Housekeeping, The Guardian and Stylist magazine. She is an RTT therapist, an NLP practitioner and coach and Timeline therapist. Feel free to ask her any questions by visiting her here: annabellazeiddar.com

You might have noticed a widespread issue with young people suffering from many emotional issues (not talking about conditions, diseases, sindromes etc here).

In this interview with Anastasia Chai, a California-based mum, trauma informed hypnotherapist and specialist in paediatric issues, we will delve into how to improve the well being of our amazing kids.

Some of the aspects we will cover are:

• How the home environment can support instead of hindering young people
• Why it's a natural phase to feel a bit strange about a changing, growing body we don't recognise anymore
• Why there is nothing wrong with being young
• How media, peers and society might influence kids to feel they don't measure up
• Why attaching labels may build up a mental program that is not helpful after all
• And much more!

I remember reading an amazing story of love, dedication and healing in my RTT world some years ago. I was so inspired by it that I mentioned it to many of my friends and clients as it shows the immense power that hypnosis has to remove unhelpful beliefs. In this specific case, my colleague Rachel Farnsworth was then a newly qualified hypnotist and she decided to try to help her daughter, who was 14 at the time and had been diagnosed with juvenal idiopathic arthritis when she was just one year old.

After years of pain, injections, steroids, medications side effects, nausea, beign unable to use her joints properly and being told she would never heal, Rachel's daughter sat there thinking 'All I need to do is close my eyes while mum relaxes me.' But the outcome of her RTT session was so profound that after the session, her body relaseased the root causes of her agony, and then the pain itself simply vanished. Years later, she is a healthy hair dresser with no symptoms at all, who has been signed off by her doctors. What happened?

Put it simply, with the hypnotic process Rachel found out the cause of the issue and helped her daughter to let it go, so she was free to feel well again. Find out how the emotions and perception of a tiny baby had powerfully shaped her beliefs to the point of creating a mesmerising and painful disease so she could fit into the world as she understood it.

It happens to a lot of couples: one day she is absolutely fine, healthy and adorable, and then suddenly she is in pain, or has anxiety, irritability and all sort of strange symptoms that make you wonder if the previous playful kitten has transformed overnight into an angry lioness.

What is this and why you should not worry that she doesn't love you anymore?

These are some of the symptoms of PMDD -a condition shared by over 10% of women in child-bearing age, which displays a frustrating arrays of symptoms that modern science explains with hormonal imbalance. However, in our chat with Chloe Jimenez Peters, who has a background of years at medical school, then hypnosis, RTT and coaching, we will discover that the reason for PMDD is actually emotional, and specifically unresolved trauma.

You will find out what exactly happens when our hormones fluctuate and how to resolve the issue with self care and trauma informed therapy.

When Karin Hill's husband of 37 years was tragically murdered ten years ago, she experienced a deep trauma. Her heart was racing all day long and her pressure went up - and she remained in that high alert state for weeks and weeks. It was going to kill her.

Doctors prescribed anti depressants, and they didn't help. After four months, doctors were still unable to stop Karin's symptoms. Talking therapy didn't help either.

One night Karin remembered something about hypnosis and the body-mind connection that she had learned years before. She immediately made up a 20 minutes self-hypnosis in her mind and changed the haunting picture in her mind into a good one.

The day after she felt well for the first time in months, and has remained well ever since - so today she is able to share her remarkable recovery story, as part of her mission to help those who went through trauma and have tried everything, to no avail.

Truly the body keeps the score! Prepare to be inspired by this touching experience that will show you the amazing power of our mind. The healing power we are seeking for is found within ourselves.

I remember a song from Bee Gees: "How can you mend a broken heart" which was about the end of a love story. I always wondered: is it actually possible to heal our shuttered self?

It's difficult to describe the heartbreak, shock, numbness and feeling of loss that happen when a serious or long-term relationship ends. Our future, the life we envisioned with our partner vanish in front of our eyes. We might feel broken, rejected, abandoned, dead inside, hopeless, alone, angry or bitter. We might have thought that this person was our soulmate and we might think that we will never find another relationship that is as satisfying as this was.

Some of us end up in toxic relationships, too. They accepted to be in them because deep down, they didn't believe that they deserved any better. They had no trust in themselves.

In this heart-felt interview with Beatrice Zamfir, a relationship coach and hypnotist based in the UK, we will discuss all the aspects to consider when we find ourselves alone. Not only that, but she will explain how by working with Advanced Conversational Hypnosis (ACH) we can shift to a lighter, easier state, filled with peace, hope and understanding - a new self.

Beatrice has been nominated as the Mental Health Specialist of the year for 2023/2024 at London Prestige Awards. This is a great honour and a testament to her dedication and hard work in the field of mental health. Additionally, she is being recognised as one of the top 500 entrepreneurs dedicated to helping people in so many countries is a remarkable achievement.

Most people are aware that that behind successful individuals there are solid skills, hours of study and practice, commitment, stress, sacrifice and much more. We see the sparkly stars of victory, the trophies, the achievements and we might think, 'I wish I were like them!' But did you know that for some of these champions, dancers, performers, CEOs, pilots, musicians and corporate professionals life is not as rosy as it seems?

Life in many professions sees stress, depression, unfulfillment and lack of daily joy and satisfaction.

In this episode we will delve into the competitive life of dancers (and by extension into any other competitive profession), where the end all is often to WIN - and everything else risks to be erased.

We interview Italian-born and Belgium-based coach and RTT therapist Sara Nativi, who will share her story as a professional dancer who suffered from anorexia under the huge pressure she was put on for many years. During those years Sara learned how to listen to her body and experience a shift in wellness.

Today, Sara specialises in helping high achievers to move from stress to success and she shares in this episode what are the key points that may help us to achieve our grand dreams without losing our mental health.

Not only that, but we can also find joy in life again. And you can soon see us talking in my Youtube channel, too!

Find Sara here and ask her any question in English, Italian or French!
