We're having another heatwave here on the south coast of England, it is hot. Mt son and I have been swimming in the sea every evening and cooking hot dogs on the beach BBQs we have here where I live on the coast, it has been wonderful. I mention it a couple of weeks ago when I sent this broadcast out I'll mention it again...  I'm digging out that article from over 10 years ago when I wrote about using self-hypnosis to lower body temperature during these (albeit rare) times. If you want a way to cool down during the day, help aid sleep at night and be a general antidote to the unfamiliar heat Brought on by this hot weather, look no further!

Our latest hypnotherapy diploma course just ended, certificates were given out, we went for a celebratory meal (you may have seen on my socials) and enjoyed a stimulating final module. Now I recharge my batteries as we head into a new diploma course in a couple of months time. My current gym training block ended (on my socials I have been posting all my 1rm PB attempts with the main lifts) and I will now shift focus greatly as I look to train for hybrid events this Autumn and Winter instead of focusing on heavy lifting numbers. 

As I mentioned previously, in recent weeks I have been running my hypnotic body mastery programme and it has meant that quite a lot of my focus and output online has had that kind of theme. Here today, I'm sharing articles about how to use psychology to become physically stronger, and as the title of this edition of Adam Up states; using psychological tools to actually improve strength is not just for gym goers - it is for gardeners, active parents, those recovering from injury or illness and more besides. I have also written about how to feel comfortable in your own skin, how to have more hope and other topics too.  

Word of warning - I never usually do anything of the sort in this Adam Up Ezine, but today I'm breaking tradition and have a sales pitch further down whereby I'm offering the recordings of my videos from the hypnotic body mastery programme for sale to the public - read if interested, ignore and scroll past if not. 

I've included a couple of short videos today too, nothing too heavyweight this time around though. 

I have done my best not to use this irregular ezine broadcast to plug what I do too much and use it for sharing free resources, article and videos that I think benefit people in a range of ways, however today I am also promoting my body mastery programme and upcoming courses.  
 

Wherever you are in the world, I hope you are healthy and happy and that the second half of 2025 starts well for you.

Ok, let's get on with it, shall we?

1. Last month in class, I made mention of the brilliant “An Autobiography in 5 short chapters” by Portia Nelson. It is relevant to topics of psychological change, growth, denial, of reflection and experiential learning and more besides. Thought I’d share it here today….

Watch full video here:  An Autobiography in 5 short chapters by Portia Nelson.

2. We’ve just been editing some class video footage that will form part of the updated online hypnotherapy diploma course materials, and we removed a moment whereby a past version of me was communicating with present me and dictating what I was talking about…. Things aren’t always smooth in class and had me scratching my head for a few moments….

Watch full video here: A message from the past… 

3. Within my college’s hypnotherapy practitioner diploma course, we cover a range of modalities and do our best to be neuroscience informed – a short while ago, we discussed using self-awareness and mindfulness to recognise automacity of negative thoughts and as we bear witness to those thoughts we learn to recondition the brain in a range of ways, often when hypnotised, and update the negative thoughts and feelings accordingly.

The Hypnotherapist Development Hub:

I have just shared the dates for the next 6 months (until the end of the year) for our regular group supervision sessions I host in our hypnotherapist development hub - our members can join as a supervisee or as an observer (which many find incredibly useful and insightful) and which all counts as official supervision with me as your supervisor, duly approved by your hypnotherapy professional organisation. 

We also run monthly practice sessions for members and all of our graduates and current students have access to these sessions whereby all present get to connect with like-minded people from all over the world and practice skills, approaches and get feedback as they seek to develop, stay sharp or just get practice in that some struggle to find sometimes. 

Additionally, all recordings of my 4-part Trauma for Hypnotherapists series that was recorded in recent weeks are now live, plus the first part has an additional supplementary session that advances on the effects of trauma on the major brain networks that is introduced in that first session. These sessions aim to advance and compliment the way you work with clients who have experience trauma, help you understand what is happening in the brain and how to use your existing skillset along with some new skills to advance your clinical work in this regard.

Some of you may remember my popular podcast 'Hypnosis Weekly' that is sadly no longer available publicly - all episodes ever recorded are available in the hub, along with all the latest recordings of the UK Hypnosis Convention that we recorded at the end of last year, including keynote David Spiegel and our interview with Jonathan Goodwin (you can read more about the UKHC video sets that are available for purchase here).  

There is so much additional education, loads of courses, additional support and resources included and that can be accessed if you are a member of my Hypnotherapist Development Hub. Visit the link here for full details on how to subscribe to it monthly or annually.

The evidence based hypnosis meme of the week is  below....

Evidence based hypnosis meme of the week. 

A 2022 study assessed the impact of hypnosis and self-hypnosis on disinhibition of eating in adults with obesity and high food impulsivity levels, compared with standard nutritional education.

The control and hypnosis groups received the same standard nutrition education in 8 workshops. In the hypnosis group, subjects had 8 sessions of hypnosis combined with training in self-hypnosis.

At 8 month follow-up, disinhibition scores were significantly lower in the hypnosis group (67.7% of adults in the hypnosis group had normalized their disinhibition compared with 11.1% in control group). Differences for weight, BMI and susceptibility to hunger also favoured the hypnosis group.

Authors conclude that in the management of adults with obesity and a high disinhibition score, hypnosis and self-hypnosis can significantly improve the deep mechanisms of eating behaviours and seem to have a beneficial effect on weight loss.

(Delestre et al., 2022).
