This weekend being an FA Cup weekend talk in the media turned to teams playing weakened sides and not valuing the cup. Using the congested fixture list as an excuse and sighting tired players is not uncommon now days. Liverpool came under scrutiny for this as they made ten changes to their starting line-up. Liverpool’s manager Jürgen Klopp, did say in his pre-match interview that some of his players had covered 17KMs in the previous game and they had played 9 games in 20 days

I’ve been asked recently why I don’t have a land line number on my web site. The simple answer is Hypnotic Resolutions LTD doesn’t have a land line but that doesn’t explain why. The reason there is no land line is like most hypnotherapy practices this is a one person practice and I am often out of the office, either marketing or visiting clients. So if you called a land line you may not get an answer so I use a mobile. This resolves the problem of having to have two numbers a

A press association article published on the 27 Jan 2016 here talks about drivers reporting “memory loss” after journeys. It does not state whether the journeys in question are urban, rural motorway or both, and this is important factor for the results. I’ll start with a bit of clarification then go on to comment on the article. If you are suffering memory blanks from urban journeys you’ve driven ask yourself, do you have memory blanks of times when you have not been driving,

What would you say if you had the chance to enter a free lottery? Not the normal type of lottery, this one’s different. You get to set fire to around £3000 of your own money. Not all at once, you can burn it over the course of twelve months and if you do you go into the lottery. With this lottery though you don’t win money. With this lottery one of your genes mutates every day, two every third day and if you win you don’t get cancer. You’d decline the offer right? Yet thousan

I’ve already mentioned football in a previous blog about sporting performance. It’s not the only sport I watch but is one of the main ones. Well today I’m going to write about Liverpool. Today they played Norwich and the game ended with Liverpool wining with 5-4. So once again Liverpool’s big summer signing Christian Benteke started the game on the sub’s bench. He’s not shown the form he was bought for this season and many pundits have put that down to a lack of confidence. S

Now that we’re two thirds of the way through January many of us who decided to make a change with a New Year’s resolution will now be finding it hard to keep to that resolution. People all over the country are finding their subconscious is fighting back and winning. If only they’d sought the help of a hypnotherapist. Why? Because their subconscious is doing what it’s meant to do and keeping a behaviour going that it believes is good for them. Even if that behaviour is a destr

There is more than one way people try to stop smoking. While some succeed many fail. Will power is always difficult and is basically a fight between the conscious and the subconscious. The sub conscious being the strongest wins the majority of the time. Patches and Nicotine gum offer an alternative source of nicotine without the nasty carcinogenic chemicals. There are pit falls. One, your craving for nicotine is only reduced as the strength of the patches is reduced over time

We all have habits. When I decided to start writing a blog my intension was to write most days and I did state in an earlier blog I wouldn’t write every day. The reason I made this statement was that I felt I may not have the time every day, I didn’t want it to become a habit and to be honest I was a little worried I may not be able to think of suitable material every day. To be honest the latter has not been a problem and while I have written a few times during the day (such

This evening is going to be a good family evening for us. My son, who is at university is close enough to be able to visit from time to time during term time. He is making one of those visits tonight. So for our evening meal we will have our son who still lives with us, our son visiting from university and our daughter is coming over with our grandson. So my family will all be together this evening, something which doesn’t happen often enough. Even though I would like it to h

There is a disorder with which the sufferer pulls out their own hair. Both head hair and eyebrows. This initially will bring a feeling of relief. This however is quickly followed by a sense of guilt. This impulse-control disorder is called trichotillomania and according to the National Health Service (NHS) web site there is no known cause. There must of course be a cause, everything has a cause. The difficult thing with finding a cause for the likes of trichotillomania is the
