Thursday 8th March was International Women's Day and I celebrated this day with 100+  women in business and mumpreneurs at the Social Media Magic event inWimbledon put on by London Mums Magazine and Way to Work Magazine. It was a very interesting event, and handily for me it was in Wimbledon, conveniently close to The Hypnotherapy & Natural Health Centre. Sadly, Lorna (my massage therapist and reflexologist colleague) who specialises in pregnancy treatments was unable to join me as she had a bad cold, which was a shame. As we both specialise in working with pregnancy and childbirth, we were looking forward to networking with women who also do business with mums and mums to be as well as any working mums looking for advice on hypnosis for childbirth (hypnobirthing). Surprisingly there were few obviously pregnant women there, but several women came over to my exhibition stand to wax lyrical about their positive hypnobirthing experiences. I did however have several enquiries from women who wanted help to overcome phobias. I have seen an increasing numbers of clients over the last year who wanted help with acute fears and phobias although this may be as a result client referrals. Prior to me opening my therapy centre in SW19 in 2010, my hypnotherapy practice in SW London was actually called Fix your Fears because fear of some kind is at the root of most people's concerns, whether it be fear of rejection, fear of failure or even fear of success.
