NORMALISE YOUR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
With all respect to you and your situation – I would like to suggest that you go and visit our page on Resolving Stress. |

But, if you will just bear with me for a few more moments please: The problem is that although we may be experiencing an entirely stress free life – the unconscious mind – during some experience of difficulty, bewilderment or fear, can take on information, which may be for you – continuously repeating! This means the unconscious mind is repeating – either in words or images – difficult or stressful information. What do I mean by ‘unconscious’ – I simply mean information that you are not consciously creating – or consciously aware of!
Here is a simple example of what I am talking about.
In 1992 – I had fallen in love – with the man of my dreams. He was working in South Africa. He invited me to join him for a six week adventure travelling to four African Countries. Heaven for me! (Possibly not your particular dream trip?!) I had meticulously organised my life – my Practice, my clients, my staff. Everyone – especially my clients were happy to Work with a locum, Georgina, in my absence.
All my clients had met Georgina and were happy to continue their Therapy Work with her in my absence. Georgina came highly recommended as she was and is my Therapist. The evening that I was packing to leave for Africa – for my dream trip of a lifetime – I felt myself go into an ‘up state’ – my heart rate increased, my blood pressure went up – I experienced ‘anxiety’ feelings in my stomach. All these symptoms came ‘out of the blue’ as I was happily packing. My conscious mind immediately interpreted my symptoms – I was being irresponsible – leaving my clients for six weeks. I was just about to pick up the phone and call Mike, the love of my life, and cancel my trip. If I had taken this action I would never have seen Mike again. But, I was able to think and know with certainty that I was not being irresponsible! So, what was going on?
I pushed my suitcase off the bed – lay down – and ‘tuned in’ to my own unconscious. And then I heard – the voices of my lovely mum and grandmother in my mind – repeatedly saying: “You can’t have your cake and eat it…….” This repeated injunction ease the cause of increased heart rate, increase in blood pressure – and the felt anxiety in my stomach. Why? Because my mind had a belief – which I did not even consciously know about – the belief being – “You can’t have your cake and eat it…….”
And I was about to definitely - have my cake – and eat it too. Beliefs and thoughts are powerful – they change our state – instantly. Many, many beliefs – and thoughts are by definition unconscious – that is we don’t even know we have them.
What did I do that evening – when I was preparing to go on my dream trip – with Mike, the man I love – I ‘deconstructed’ that belief – which didn’t even belong to me, it belonged to my lovely mum – and her mum before her.
I happily went to Africa. I had loads of ‘cake’ – the best ‘cakes’ and I enjoyed ‘them’ all. Mike and I married – and life is a dream!
So, what can I do for you – I assist you to discover what is repeating unconsciously for you – that is causing your heart rate to increase and your blood pressure to rise. Once we know what is happening – unconsciously for you – we can then – make the changes – which will be entirely acceptable and appropriate for you – uniquely and individually.
I am not simply going to teach you how to relax – though learning to relax will be a part of our treatment plan – But, relaxation on its own – does not work. If it did – millions of people with heart problems and high blood pressure would simply go to relaxation classes – and billions of pounds would be saved on prescriptions.
Simple relaxation does not stop what is repeating in the unconscious mind!

FREE ASSESSMENT CONSULTATION
Your first session will be an ASSESSMENT CONSULTATION. This session is FREE of charge. You will be able to ask me all the questions you need and also inform me of anything that you think and feel is important and relevant. I will establish with you what you need and want to achieve from your Therapy and structure for you a treatment plan.
However if I think that working with me does not seem to be the most effective method of resolving your difficulties, symptoms or problem I will be able to talk to you about other ways you can receive help that could be more beneficial.
If you have an idea of what you would like to achieve from working with me please go to appointments to book your ASSESSMENT CONSULTATION

Your ASSESSMENT CONSULTATION will be booked for you at a time and date that is convenient for you and will last for approximately one hour. This session is Free – and can be done by phone, SKYPE, or face to face at my consulting rooms in Keswick, Cumbria, in the English Lake District. If travelling to Keswick for a weekly session is unwieldy for you I can often conduct Therapy Sessions by phone. However face to face Work, though not always essential, can often be much better, in that for example, by phone you may tell me that you are comfortable and relaxed, and face to face I can observe from you breathing, heart rate and so on that in fact you are uncomfortable.
Also go to Therapeutic Breaks in The Heart of the English Lake district for information on our accommodation – which is a sweet cosy cottage, which sleep four people right on the banks of the beautiful River Greta.
Many clients who have worked with me have often said: “I have several of the symptoms on your list – where do I begin?” during your ASSESSMENT CONSULTATION I will help you to discover where you need to begin, and often several symptoms or problems will be resolved and healed during the course of therapy.
Whatever your problem I can help!
