March Talk with Yvonne Parker

It’s March! The first month of Spring, and the month when the clocks go forward. Today we're talking to Yvonne Parker who is a clinical hypnotherapist at Yvonne Parker Hypnotherapy based in Swindon. She helps clients shift their emotional state through what can be a very difficult time for them using a blend of techniques using hypnosis, EFT, EMDR, NLP, talking therapy and or past life regression.

How is March looking for you in your business? 
March is looking really busy, clients are coming for various reasons but mainly because they want to improve something in their life whether that is their relationships with themselves or others.

I will also be running my group anxiety relief program for 4 weeks starting this week where I will help clients to gain coping techniques and put strategies in place that will work for them when they are feeling anxious.

Are you taking part in any wider events or business collaborations this month? 
I attended the big event for Business Women In on March 8th for International Women’s Day. It was  a chance to connect and be amongst other female entrepreneurs and to hear their inspiring journeys and stories.

Is National No Smoking Day relevant in your business?
Yes it is. Smoking and breaking the habit is still common as through having hypnosis many people feel they are then able to successfully give up their habit to become a non-smoker.

Did you know that March 18 is Awkward Moments Day? Can you share any awkward moments with us in business or life?
There was an awkward moment many years back when I went into work with odd shoes on, one was blue and one was black, which was a bit embarrassing initially, but did end up with lots of laughter about the situation and my excuse, that I stuck too, was that it was dark in the morning when I put them on!

March is also Mother’s Day (March 27) is this an important day for your business? 
Yes, it is relevant as some of my clients may be struggling particularly on this Mother’s Day, it may that they have lost their mother and are struggling to come to terms with the loss and their grief.  

It could be with the relationship they have with their mother or even as mothers with their children.  

I help them through the techniques I use to have better relationships or change how they feel about these relationships in their lives.  

Would you like to share your thoughts about your mother, a mother figure in your life or your life with a mother or as a mother? 
I have found my own mother to be very supportive to me in my life whilst giving me the freedom to make my own mistakes and choices. Knowing that she is there for me is priceless. 

In the yearly cycle of your business – what do you expect during March? 
Business is picking  up as people start to get back to some normality.  

For people to be outside more enjoying the better weather and as Spring comes, they will be planning holidays and spending more time outdoors.

With this my clients may want to deal with their fears or phobias that they have.  This cananything from a fear of flying, to having a phobia of spiders, wasps, or bees.  

I will also see more weight management clients as this is the time that they think about improving their wellbeing to lose weight to fit into their new wardrobe of summer clothes for their holiday.
