(0:06) And me, Les Roberts, in St Helens, United Kingdom. (0:10) This weekly podcast is for anyone and everyone who would like to know more about the fascinating (0:14) world of hypnosis and the benefits that it offers.I'm a clinical hypnotherapist and (0:22) specialist in working with children. And I'm a retired medical doctor (0:26) and consultant hypnotist. We are Two Hypnotherapists Talking.(0:33) So let's get on with the episode. (0:36) So season 10, episode 3 already. We're storming through this, aren't we, Denise? (0:43) We are indeed, my dear.Even taking vacations while we do it. (0:47) I was away last week. It was wonderful.(0:50) I'm away next weekend. I'm going up to Hull to see Sheila, Sheila Granger. (0:56) Yeah, very nice.We were hoping, we went last weekend just for a long weekend. (1:01) This weekend is our bank holiday, Monday. So Ben and Emily have moved to outside Cleveland, (1:09) and we expected to go see them.But I had a conversation with him at the end of his (1:14) first day at work, and he said it's going to take more while before he's really (1:18) organised. So that's fine. We will see him before the end of the month.(1:21) Because by October, the weather could be bad. They get a lot of snow. (1:25) Yeah, yeah.So what have you been up to? What have you been up to? (1:28) Well, just that. Just relaxing around, you know, watching horses and other wildlife, (1:34) a lot of deer around there. It was very nice.And, you know, just trying to get my business (1:40) moving along. I've been writing this month about medical and dental issues. (1:47) I think people tend to forget, and actually a lot of dentists (1:51) have been trained in hypnosis to some degree.And they're very open to it. So I'm going to start (1:57) reaching out to the dentists around here. Yeah, my dentist is quite open to it.I've (2:02) been for an emergency appointment this morning. So he's been very, very open to it. And he just (2:10) says, don't look into my eyes, you know, as a joke.But yeah, he's asked me to put some stuff (2:15) together. So I'm going to put some stuff together. It's more for the children.So yeah, that's very (2:21) helpful. We get children to not be afraid of the dentist. Yeah.You know, we had a lot of dental (2:26) problems later on. Well, yes. Yeah.I mean, I'm not very keen. I don't get excited thinking I'm (2:32) going to the dentist, but it doesn't bother me because he's a very, very good dentist and very (2:38) empathetic over, you know, needles and things like that. Yeah.And once they say, do you need (2:44) to take a beat? And that's usually all it is. You just kind of screw your courage to the sticking (2:50) post. Yeah.I think he's very good because he treats adults like he does the children. So he (2:58) actually, he actually puts like the numbing stuff on your gums before he gives you the (3:04) needle. And why not? He's so good.He is. He is. Yeah.But yeah, you're right. I think, I think (3:11) dentists and we've discussed it before, haven't we? About medical doctors and everything. They (3:16) should all have some kind of training in hypnosis.If not actually do it themselves, at least to know (3:23) enough about it to be able to use it. It is so frustrating that it's still all these hundreds (3:29) and thousands of years it's been around. So what do you plan on targeting like dentists in your (3:38) area too? Yeah, I will probably reach out to them because I can see I'm right next door.I don't (3:45) know how many we've got, but I think I can throw my stone at five different offices just in this (3:49) round here. So there's a lot. And we've certainly got lots of dentists and I'm very close to the (3:55) hospital.So I might put together a talk. Yeah, no, that'd be good that wouldn't it? That'd be (4:00) very, very good. Yeah.It's all about education, isn't it? And whilst I'm thinking, having this (4:06) brainstorm while we're talking, I think actually I could probably reach out because they do (4:11) adult education, if you will, you know, talk to the importance of the pap smear, (4:16) the importance of the, you know, that stuff. I'm just going to put in my leaflet together, (4:20) go in and have a chat with him and just see where that gets me. So we'll have to see, (4:26) even if it's just to come in and do a talk with the staff or I'm quite open to quite a lot of (4:33) things with him.So that's good. Yeah. Talking to the staff is nice also because you can also (4:38) remind them they themselves are patients at multiple countries and it can be really useful.(4:46) I have seen quite a few children who have had their parents pin them down where they've been (4:55) having inoculations or vaccinations or ...

(0:06) And me, Les Roberts in St Helens, United Kingdom. (0:10) This weekly podcast is for anyone and everyone who'd like to know more about the fascinating (0:14) world of hypnosis and the benefits that it offers.I'm a clinical hypnotherapist (0:21) and specialist in working with children. And I'm a retired medical doctor and consultant (0:28) hypnotist. We are Two Hypnotherapists Talking.So let's get on with the episode. (0:38) Okay, so episode two of our 10th season, well my third, but your 10th season of Two (0:49) Hypnotherapists Talking. Wow, that's just amazing, isn't it? We have a lovely, lovely guest on today (0:57) and her name is Melanie Davis.And Melanie is an advanced skills practitioner in clinical (1:04) hypnotherapy, a trained blast trauma therapist and a sleep and stress consultant. (1:12) Melanie specializes in supporting people to better manage anxiety, sleep and stress. (1:19) Before becoming a therapist, Melanie spent more than three decades working in a high pressure, (1:28) high accountability, educational environments as a lead practitioner, a teacher, trainer, coach, (1:36) and mentor.And using this extensive experience helps Melanie to help other people to manage (1:47) pressure, rebuild confidence and develop sustainable strategies for their well-being. (1:53) So Melanie also is a seasoned presenter, having appeared on podcasts, on Cambridge radio, (2:01) and writes a regular column for the acclaimed Velvet magazine, where she shares practical (2:08) evidence-based well-being insights. So welcome.Wow, Melanie. (2:14) There's a lot of stuff there. When you get some downtime.(2:20) Well, yeah, it's a bit like that, isn't it? But I don't realize it until I hear it all put (2:26) together like that really. But I'm sure with both of you as well, that the path that leads you (2:32) to hypnotherapy goes along many other avenues and you gather many skills along the way and (2:38) that's just how mine have come, actually. Yeah.Well, before we get too far into it, (2:43) most people that listen to this are probably hypnotists. I'm trained in EMDR and I know (2:49) that Les is. In what way does the BLAST program differ from EMDR? Excuse me, I'll be perfectly (2:54) honest.I haven't used it that much. I used it for, I saw a couple of police men and ladies. (3:02) So I think the primarily the primary difference is that EMDR is much more focused on working with (3:08) the conscious mind and BLAST is more focused on working with the unconscious mind.And the person (3:15) who developed BLAST, Nick Davies, who I have to say is not a relation of mine, although we share (3:20) the same surname, and he was working with clients. He's a hypnotherapist and a psychotherapist. So (3:28) obviously EMDR often comes through the psychotherapy field.And he found that when he (3:34) was working with some of his clients, the process was quite slow and difficult for them. And although (3:40) it's evidence-based and it shows that it does help with PTSD and trauma, the actual process (3:46) itself for some people can be quite rigid and it can sort of sit them in that trauma space (3:55) for a longer time than is desirable. And I think from listening to Nick through the training that (4:03) I've done, he wanted to find a kinder, gentler, faster way.So he drew upon all of the evidence (4:11) space around EMDR, the work of Francine Shapiro and that block around evidence-based. But then (4:20) he also looked at hypnotherapy, suggestion work, NLP, work of Richard Bandler, and did a number (4:28) of studies and developed the BLAST technique. So it still uses bilateral eye movement.That's what (4:35) it stands for, bilateral analysis and stimulation treatment. But there's a bit more scope in it to (4:43) adapt it specifically to the person that is in front of you. And I find it works really nicely (4:48) in programs of hypnotherapy.And I have to say, I've been quite astonished at some of the results (4:55) that I've got with it. It's one of those, if you don't see it yourself, you don't believe it. (5:00) I didn't train in EMDR, I trained in IEMT, which is integral eye movement therapy.And I'll be (5:08) perfectly honest, for severe trauma, otherwise I haven't used it. And maybe I'll have to get (5:15) dust my folder down and start having a look at it as well, because it is really good, isn't it? (5:20) And it's just another approach that we can use. Right.So what is the bulk of the people that (5:29) you see are trauma-related cases? It's interesting because they often don't ...

(0:10) This weekly podcast is for anyone and everyone who'd like to know more about the fascinating (0:14) world of hypnosis and the benefits that it offers.I'm a clinical hypnotherapist and (0:22) specialist in working with children. And I'm a retired medical doctor (0:26) and consultant hypnotist. We are Two Hypnotherapists Talking.(0:33) So let's get on with the episode. (0:36) Quite chilly. Oh, hello.(0:39) Bear's come to see us. I haven't seen Bear before. (0:43) Yeah, this is Bear.He's feeling quite lonely because my husband has been doing some work (0:48) outside in the garden, chopping some of the trees, you know, like down to a proper level. (0:53) And he doesn't like anything like that. So he's been mithering me all day.(0:59) So yeah, he's been following me around, hasn't he? He's a chicken. (1:03) I miss that word. Martin, he's just mithering.(1:08) Mithering, that's the northern word, isn't it? Mithering. (1:11) But we've got a nice big basket of grapes from our vine today. (1:19) Congratulations.(1:20) Very sweet. So I'm not a grape lover unless it's fermented, but (1:26) yeah, I shall be eating some later. (1:29) Do you do your own fermenting? (1:31) No, unfortunately not.I don't have the time. (1:35) I wish. I'd like to be able to do it one day.So maybe, maybe one day, but we'll see. (1:42) It's just more convenient to just run around. (1:45) Just go to the shop.(1:47) It's just pick one up from there, really, isn't it? (1:50) Yeah. (1:51) So we're on season 10 of Tumour Therapist Talking already. (1:57) And this, starting here in the middle of September, going to (2:02) just the first week of December, and then we'll be off until the new year.(2:05) Yeah, that'd be fantastic. But it's, yeah, we've got some nice, some really, really nice guests. (2:11) They're all nice, like you said, but we've got some really nice, interesting guests.(2:14) And hopefully our listeners will enjoy chatting and listening. (2:21) I think the most will be interested, when you think of a hypnotist, (2:24) you don't think of them in corporate life. (2:26) You don't.(2:27) We've got two people whose business are basically working with corporations. (2:32) But also, you don't think of the actual business behind it, do you? (2:37) When anybody's looking for a therapist or a hypnotherapist or anybody like that, (2:43) you're just going to Google or go with a recommendation. (2:47) And people don't realise the work that goes on behind the scenes.(2:51) There's more work behind the scenes than what there is, you know, when you're face to face. (2:55) As most of us finally realised when we graduated. (2:59) Yes, yeah.I was talking about this with Sheila Granger just a few days ago. (3:06) Who's a guest this season, correct? (3:08) Yeah. And you don't realise, do you? (3:12) When you're in that classroom, when you're studying to become a therapist, (3:17) you don't realise that it's afterwards, after you've qualified, (3:21) that you think, well, I'm a therapist.(3:23) I'm just supposed to sit in my therapy room and give my therapy out. (3:31) Yeah, but it's not like that, is it? (3:33) Because there's an awful lot that goes on behind the scenes. (3:38) That's the bit that if you don't get right, then... (3:41) First, you've got to figure out what it is, (3:43) and then you've got to figure out how to make it easier to do that stuff.(3:46) So all day today, and I know I'm a lot later than you are, (3:50) because you're lunchtime, aren't you? (3:51) We're almost like dinner time, late afternoon. (3:56) And all I've done all day is attend a few meetings online, (4:00) but also rejig my website, because I've had a rebrand a couple of weeks ago. (4:09) So everything needs rejigging, and more videos, (4:12) and it's those kind of things that people don't understand how much it takes.(4:19) Right. And how much it is when it's a single person running the show. (4:25) Because the big operations, obviously, they've got committees to do these things.(4:32) Exactly, but it's just me and you, yeah. (4:36) We have Sheila this time round? (4:38) Yes, yes. (4:40) Okay.So we've got Sheila, and we have two people who... (4:43) Who work in the corporate. (4:44) ...differently in corporations, yeah. (4:46) Yeah.So we're waiting, I'm waiting for whether I've been successful (4:52) to get into Hypnotic 2027 in Belgium. So yeah. (4:56) So you did, this is the one that's in Belgium, is the one you did this year? (5:00) Yeah, Hypnotic 2026 I did this year, so it'll be 2027 next year.Yeah, that was lovely. (5:06) And so while we're recording all of these, when we get towards the end of our episodes, ...
