Cocaine Addiction, Mastery of Mind

Mastering emotions to free coke addiction

An addiction is said to be an unhealthy dependence on a substance such as alcohol or drugs such as cocaine although people miss the fact that our thoughts also can become addictive. Negative thinking can be as addictive as any drug and can pull us down. 

Mastering our thoughts and emotions can set us free from our addictions whether its to cocaine, gambling, eating certain foods, exercise, using the internet and even shopping.

 The addiction has some degree of pleasure attached to it, for example many cocaine addicts start out using their drug because it makes them feel good.

Cocaine stops negative moods and thoughts

Its an easy way to change their state or mind and silence negative thoughts and it works in the beginning and can be a great confidence boost but that doesn’t last, then after a while many find that cocaine begins to control them.

They even wonder why they are doing it still yet at times the urges come to partake in abusing coke to feel better; and generally the are then on a role to take more of the same the get that feel good feeling.

People think of drug addicts as hopeless, unhappy people whose lives are falling apart whilst for years many cocaine addicts do not believe they have a problem as long as they are enjoying themselves and keeping their lives together.

 Coke for business?

Many have used it to help with energy and motivation to get their business up and running as it the short term it’s effects seem to have no negative side effects .

Its when they try to stop taking coke they realise the hold it has over them and many times they contact Debbie Williams at the Birmingham and Midlands Cocaine Help Centre 

Call 0121 241 0728 to get help to stop abusing cocaine and be free of its addictive hold.

Cocaine addicts

Many cocaine addicts start to recognise the harm their coke addiction is doing to them physically and mentally. Whilst others deny the negative aspects and ignore the effects on their health and relationships until a partner or a boss issues an ultimatum.

A challenge that many cocaine addiction experts find, is when those close to the coke addict ask for assistance for a loved one but the actual addict does not want to let go of their addiction.

You can watch actual video testimonials of clients who have overcome their addiction to cocaine from the Birmingham Cocaine Addiction Help Centre here

The map is not the territory

A ‘map’ is never the place itself as it would need to be the same size. It can only ever be a representation of a place.

NLP uses the idea of the map to show how we can only ever view through our own lens our  representations of the world, or rather re-presentations and not the actual world itself.

Our differing internal worlds

Although we all live in the same world, we all have our own unique view and perception of it. Even twins will have different internal maps, as although they share the same genes and upbringing, their filters and experiences will be different.

Two people witnessing the same event will encode things differently as viewed from different angles their interpretation will not be the same.

Whether we know it or not, every thing that happens in our lives has the power to  impact on the future , through moulding our future beliefs, our behaviours, and the decisions we make.

How our maps are formed

Every day our experiences shape the boundaries and territories of our maps, from a young age we learn that there are really only so many ways to open a door.

Handles go up, down, turn ect and once learned it gets stored in the unconscious mind so that we don’t have to re-learn each time we come to a new door. Beliefs about all sorts of things also get laid down as if they are facts and every day we live within those boundaries and territories.

NLP helps us with the understanding that we all see a different version of the world as if we are wearing blinkers which guide our focus to stay in alignment with our beliefs.

NLP can help us to learn about our own maps as well as others and helps us to ‘upgrade’ them if necessary.

Happiness How To Be Happy

How to be happy

If you want to be happy then there are strategies to become more happier says Birmingham based hypnotherapist and NLP Trainer Debbie Williams

“People with high happiness set-points are human just like the rest of us. They don’t have special powers, an extra heart or X-ray vision. They just have different habits.”- Marci Shimoff, ‘Happy for No Reason, 7 steps to being happy from the inside out.’

Simple happiness strategy number 1

Fitting five minutes into our daily lives to think about what is going well is a simple habit that can make a huge difference to our well-being.

American psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough conducted a research study which supported this statement.

 Gratitude study

They asked one group of participants to keep a journal of things that they were grateful for, while other groups were asked to write about neutral subjects or their daily hassles.

Ten weeks later, those who kept a journal of positive things tended to: exercise more, report fewer physical problems, show more optimism towards the upcoming week, and generally feel better about their lives.

Furthermore, they were more likely to offer emotional support or practical help to someone in need, while also being more enthusiastic, determined and energetic in achieving their own significant goals.

 Results;

The findings of this research study aren’t surprising: taking time to appreciate one’s fortunes is the complete opposite of replaying negative thoughts, which puts one at a greater risk of depression. Thus this research reminds us of the importance of not only decreasing negative thoughts, but also increasing the positive.

 How can I be happier?

So to achieve a happier healthier mind, at any point in the day where I have five spare minutes, I could sit down and look back over the day, remembering positive things that occurred as I do so.

For example, when my son ( Debbie Williams) was so proud to be praised for using his knife and fork he exclaimed “Forky! Forky! Forky!” which made me laugh so hard I had tears streaming down my face.

 Focus on the positives

By focusing on positive events, you can experience the happiness associated with it, and feeling happier gives you a greater chance of being productive and willing to challenges. This is a straightforward exercise that can be done at any point during the day, and can instantly improve your mood.

 NLP the owners manual for your mind ?

Take control of your mind, emphasise the positives and you will have a happier, healthier mind. If you want some extra help or to find out about NLP then;

You can download a free stop worrying NLP hypnosis download from Debbie Williams  you will receive free monthly life coaching emails helping you to stay on track with your goals.

Fear of Eating

Fear of Eating

Fear of eating or trying new foods is quite a common problem. It can range from a vegetarian choosing not to eat animal products to full blown restricted diets.

Clients of Birmingham NLP hypnotherapist have had diets where only ”white food” i.e. bread, pasta white meat ( chicken) and potatoes are only eaten.  One client lived on just chips and crisps.

Children’s Fear of Eating

Most food phobias and fear of eating can be traced back to childhood. Its a time when the child is learning to assert themselves, hold their ground and to stubbornly demand things.

One adult client remembered being able to say no to all fruits and vegetables at aged 4 or 5  His parents were going through a divorce and through our sessions, looking back he realised his mother allowed him to get away with it as she felt pain and guilt that her child no longer had his father at home.

Childhood Decisions

He remembers being angry towards his mother for letting daddy leave and would have massive tantrums and feign being sick when trying to eat ”her food” and unfortunately growing up that fear became a reality.

Working with children who have food phobia’s

Birmingham NLP hypnotherapist prefers to work with the parents first to empower them with strategies to help their child.

The video below may help. If you need any more help get in touch. More videos about food phobias and fear of eating on Debbie Williams’s website 

Food phobics and those who have a fear of eating new food usually end up having some of Birmingham NLP hypnotherapists self help programmes below.

Also those who have children with a fear of food can benefit from the parents listening to the recordings as it empowers them to have the confidence to set up some structures involving rewards for putting minuscule amounts in their mouths and not even having to chew.

Animal trainer Karen Prior who wrote ”Don’t shoot the dog” realised you could only use the carrot with training dolphins as the stick made them swim away.

She would give them jackpots of fish to gain their trust and curiosity and then gradually reduce rewards so that they would have to do 2 or 3 repetitions of a behaviour before they got the fish.

This in dispersed with the odd jackpot got the dolphins behaving like a gambling addicts as they kept coming back to try their luck.

We can model some of this for children by waiting until they want something and telling them they can have it if they put the ‘said’ item of food in their mouth for 1 minute ( small as a quarter of a pea) and they don’t even have to chew.

At first it is a slow process but it does build up momentum over a few months and its time well spent as its them making decisions. To book a session with Debbie in Birmingham or over Skype call 0121 241 0728 or visit www.debbiewilliams.co.uk

Anorexia, OCD, Depressed or Not?

Are you living with an incorrect label?

The one caveat I have as a therapist is to beware the label people bring with them.  I have learned  it is far too easy to be labelled or diagnosed wrongly by a healthcare professional.

Once so labelled, that person almost carries a large banner proclaiming ” look I have depression, anorexia, OCD or bulima etc.

Many cases this is simpy not so but it doesnt stop that person from trying to live up to ‘their label’.  After all a ‘professional’ gave it to them!

 Anorexia or not ?

You have to be very careful when dealing with people who are not eating!   They appear to be very thin and it is so easy to make an instant diagnosis of anorexia.  The true cause could well be hyper thyroidism or cancer.

So it is vital to rule out any underlying medical condition for a person to not eat or to be losing an unusual amount of weight. Or the reverse is true, people who over eat many times do so because they are simply NOT giving their bodies the true energising and healing foods it needs. So the feed me signal goes into overdrive and says I still need feeding

Natural Nutritionist Anna De Lacy went on a supervised fast for medical reasons and found that by day 3 her desire or need to eat had completely diminshed.  She said “There were simply no signals being sent that said please feed me. I was amazed as i continued with the fasting how i never felt even slighltly hungry but the most important stage was when I began to eat again. I was introduced to small pieces of fresh raw food and my taste buds literally exploded with sensations and came alive again.  Food I had turned away from before tasted like nectar.  It has taught me so much about ‘taste’ and how vital it is”

 

So are YOU living your Label?  What is the genuine reason for your lack of interest or avoidance of food?  Do you over consume because your body hasn’t been properly fed?   Food for Thought.

Food phobias or not?

Food phobias or not ?

Many people labelled as having food phobias may have simply lost interest in certain foods or their ability to taste food has been affected in some way, yet for others it has been a lifelong problem.

A genuine food phobia means the person feels like they may gag or be sick if they even try new foods, such is the fear they have which prevents them from even trying something new.

Temporary food phobias

Temporary food phobias may be caused by having just gone through an illness and been forced to limit their food intake naturally but not realised that they need to revitalise their taste buds.

Focusing then on swallowing can become a problem. Or if a choking incident happened then a fear of eating can develop. The person is hyper-sensitive to every feeling within their mouth and throat area.

Hypnosis and NLP can be very effective in overcoming this.

Birmingham hypnotherapist Debbie Williams has helped many to be free of this over focusing and fear of swallowing, giving the client back their confidence to eat normally again.

Just going of certain foods

Pregnancy is a normal time when food preferences change. Often completely going of a food that was once a favourite and returning to it many months later ( or not) long after baby has been born.

This is an important point for us all as our tastes buds can so easily be affected by even a low grade infection or over stimulus by spicy or sugar laden foods!

If you have a diet that is heavy on processed sugar laden fare then the subtle tastes of fruit can seem boring in comparison.

Having a plan

Having a plan to add one or two new things each day in very small amounts does work overtime. Its a bit like when you give up sugar in your coffee at first it tastes unpleasant, yet within a month you get used to it.

So gentle stimulation of our taste buds increases our desire to eat. Another possible factor that can affect our chemical signals to eat is having breathing problems particularly if you do not have a good sense of smell.

If you have food phobias then Debbie Williams self help hypnosis recording ”Overcome a food phobia” can help you to add more variety to your diet and overcome any unconscious blockages to eating.

We stimulate the desire to feed through many senses but sight, smell and taste are the most important.

When people have eaten their food with a blindfold on their other senses heighten and they often finish eating sooner as the tastes change as they are aware of the texture and feel of the food and that they have had enough.

Rehab for Cocaine Addiction

Rehab for Cocaine Addiction

Many go into rehab for cocaine addiction to overcome their habit to coke believing it is the only option available for them. There is an alternative which can be quicker, cheaper and many times more effective than rehab in Birmingham West Midlands.

Call 0121 241 0728 to find out more …or watch below videos from former coke addicts

Most rehabs for cocaine addiction have three main phases they go through to help get you of cocaine. This can take quite a long time and be expensive and not always effective.

Alternative to rehab for cocaine addiction

Luckily there is an alternative which helps with cravings and can virtually eliminate withdrawal symptoms as well as making it easier to stop and never go back to cocaine.

Birmingham based addictions expert Debbie Williams who is also a hypnotherapist and NLP trainer has developed a unique way to quickly get people of cocaine, releasing desires for it and ensuring you never want to go back to taking it.

Lets Compare Rehab to Cocaine Addictions Expert’s Way

Cocaine Rehab Treatment Version Phase One;

Doing a detox and going through unpleasant withdrawal symptoms of potentially an almost immediate “crash” followed by an overwhelming desire and cravings for more cocaine. Other symptoms can be anxiety, depression, extreme tiredness, nightmares and paranoia.

Birmingham NLP and Hypnotherapy Version Phase One;

Session for 2 hours at Birmingham clinic where you leave feeling on top of the world . You will come in with a measure of how much a problem coke is to you ( normally on a scale of 1-100 it’s in the 90′s or 100% ) we get it down to under 30 many times to 0. (Hear Kirk talking about that in the video below).

  • We build a belief at the unconscious level that you can succeed.
  • We install a mastermind group to help get that. ” craving voice’ out of your head before it can hurt you. ( Hear Nick talk about that in his video below ) 
  • This mastermind group is unique to you, many clients have people like Richard Branson and the dragons from dragons den and other benefits for clients are they get very entrepreneurial and start creating a compelling future for themselves.
  • We link the negative end result of what coke does overtime to the thought of it being good. This messes up the desire as we connect the dots of how it feels overtime to the desire of wanting some, this makes it harder for the urge to motivate you to want some as you are able to see, hear and feel the truth that it really isn’t doing it for you anymore. ( Hear Wayne talk about that in his video below )
  • We plant hypnotic suggestions that you will feel fantastic, many times no withdrawal symptoms at all. (Hear Nick saying how great he felt in his video below)
  • We teach you many strategies to deal with urges ( if they come)
  • We plan an easy simple way of adding more alkalising foods to your diet for the next month as coke is an acid addiction and the more we alkalise the less likely you will have any cravings .

Rehab For Cocaine Addiction Phase Two;

Aim to achieve physical and mental stabilisation after coke withdrawal. Their belief is that PAWS ( post acute withdrawal syndrome) like depression can last for months. Prescriptions for anti depressants and anxiety medication may be used.

Birmingham NLP And Hypnotherapy For Cocaine Phase Two;

This session is only one hour
70% clients have not had any cocaine and feel fantastic, no side effects apart from more energy and feeling like a black cloud has lifted and they can see a bright future.
They’ve listened to the self help hypnosis recording regularly and it helps them relax and reduce their stress.
25% clients have tried some coke on more time in between the session and 95% of those get so mad with themselves it fuels the desire to definitely want to stop. It gives them a wake up moment where they really feel the coke is not living up to the hype or the effects of when they first took it.
We reinforce the good work often repeating much of what we did in the first session and of they go for a month.

Cocaine Rehab Treatment Phase Three;

Psychological or psychiatric help to try to deal with past issues that may have driven you to abuse coke, working through incidents of trauma plus help to cope with any lingering withdrawal symptoms.
Psychotherapists may help you also help you identify and avoid triggers for use.
(you may still be taking cocaine by the way having relapsed)

Birmingham Cocaine Abuse Clinic Phase Three;

Session 30-60 minutes to lock in all the positive changes. We’ve already dealt with triggers in session one and two and you feel that coke is something you used to do.
Rather than going to the past to look for deep and hidden meanings for your coke abuse we’ve already made your conscious and unconscious mind see the movie of how it feels overtime so that you just don’t want it at all.

Three sessions are standard and work with approx 80% success rate 15% may need up to 5 or 6 sessions and for 5 % it doesn’t work at all ( usually the ones who are coming to please a partner or their work )

If you are serious about overcoming your cocaine addiction contact us now 0121 241 0728
