So I promised you a post explaining the effects of stress on your ability to lose weight. 🧠 What stress actually does 🤜 When you’re stressed, your body activates the fight or flight response. That triggers the hormone cortisol. Cortisol’s job is to: - Keep you alert - Increase energy availability - Help you “cope” with perceived danger That’s useful short-term… but not great long-term. ⚖️ How this affects weight loss 1. 🍫 Increased cravings (especially sugar + carbs) Stress makes your body want quick energy. 👉 That’s why you don’t crave chicken and veg when overwhelmed…you want something fast and comforting. 2. 🔁 More emotional / automatic eating When your nervous system is dysregulated: - You react more - You pause less - Habits take over - 👉 This is where “I didn’t even think about it” happens 3. 😴 Poor sleep → more hunger Stress disrupts sleep, which affects hunger hormones: - ghrelin increases (you feel hungrier) - leptin reduces (you feel less satisfied) 👉 Result: you eat more without realising 4. 🧠 Reduced decision-making When stressed: - Your brain looks for the easiest option - Willpower drops - Long-term goals disappear - 👉 It’s not lack of discipline—it’s biology 5. 🧬 Fat storage (especially around the middle) Chronic cortisol can encourage the body to: - Hold onto fat - Store more around the abdomen 💡 The important shift Most people try to fix weight loss with: ❌ More restriction ❌ More control ❌ More pressure But if your body is in a constant stress state… 👉 It will fight you. 🤍 What actually helps Instead of forcing change: 🫰 Calm the nervous system 🫰 Create space (your “pause”) 🫰 Reduce internal pressure Because when your body feels safer… - Cravings reduce - Eating slows - Decisions improve - Change feels easier 🎯 In simple terms Stress doesn’t just affect what you eat… 👉 It affects how, why, and how often you eat.

What you really, really want! It’s definitely not the first time I’ve quoted The Spice Girls 😍😍 I’d love your input on something please. As I start creating more hypnosis sessions to support you, I want to make sure I’m offering them in a way that actually works best for YOU. If you were to invest in this kind of support, what would you prefer? ✨ 1:1 private sessions More personal, tailored specifically to you ✨ Live group sessions (online) A shared experience, powerful and supportive ✨ Recorded audios Something you can use anytime, whenever you need it There’s no right or wrong here — just what feels most helpful for you right now. Pop your preference in the comments 👇 (or message me if you’d rather keep it private) This will really help shape what I create next 💛

A little thought for today 👀 If your thoughts about food had a volume button, how loud would yours be right now? 🙉 Constant background noise 🚚 Comes and goes 😇 Only when you’re actually hungry A lot of the time, it’s not just about what we’re eating, it’s how much space food is taking up in our mind. The thinking The planning The ‘should I/shouldn’t I’ Just notice it today. No need to change anything. Because when that noise starts to quieten, everything else becomes easier (We’ll be starting to work on this in the Reset session on Thursday 9th April 🤍)

Tomorrow, I’ll be sharing the Reset session. A gentle space to slow things down… create that pause… and start feeling a little more in control around food. If you’re planning to take part, let me know below… just comment ‘I’m in’ All you’ll need is: • 15–20 minutes • A quiet space where you won’t be interrupted • Just a willingness to notice what shifts No pressure. Nothing to get right. --- And if you know someone who would really benefit from this space right now, you’re very welcome to invite them in 💫 It’s going live tomorrow morning 🎧
