Defiance, Resilience and Determination
It's taken longer than I had wanted or expected to get this Newsletter to you but hooray here it is!
There have been a few obstacles but in true Solution Focused fashion I have worked through them in small manageable steps to get to this point. I am not going to lie, it has been trying and exhausting. There is no point glossing over our feelings. In the spirit of openness and honesty I believe in being upfront. In fact, I believe we should celebrate all of our feelings, even the possibly not so pleasant ones.
Why, I hear you ask..? Firstly, they let us know we are human. Understanding our emotions and being able to validate them is key to the ability to work through and find your solutions.

SFH is about setting small manageable steps that help us re-wire our brains to help us thrive and put us on a positive course of action.
The Neuroscience Bit
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is based and grounded in neuroscience and offers a fascinating perspective on how defiance, determination, and positivity can be harnessed for personal growth.
When we exhibit defiance, I view this as a positive, in the face of adversity, our brains engage regions associated with problem-solving and executive function, helping us to work through and overcome obstacles. Determination, fuelled by the brain's reward system, reinforces our pursuit of goals, releasing dopamine when we achieve small victories and motivating us to continue. These are those little feelings of joy we experience when we have achieved something.
And positivity, which is not just a feeling; it can help build resilience and actively reshape neural pathways. When we engage in positive self-talk and focus on solutions rather than problems this strengthens the connections in the prefrontal cortex, enhancing your resilience and emotional regulation. This "rewiring" allows us to break free from unhelpful thought patterns and embrace a more solution-focused mindset, demonstrating the profound interplay between our mindset and our brain's architecture. Not least positive self-talk and a goal to head towards, does help you see your way through the maze of an issue. Positive self-talk and goals help navigate challenges..
Solution focused and positive thinking I may be but when blocks in life come up we can't ignore them, we have to face the reality and deal with it rather than shove whatever is brewing under the metaphorical carpet.
