Tranquil Mindfulness

"I had been having a few conversations with a friend regarding workplace experiences and the impact these had left on me. I felt I was unable to move forward, and I would find myself ruminating and playing the scenarios through my head. At times I felt trapped/paralysed and not able to move forward physically or emotionally. It was these conversations that led my friend to open up and confiding in me that Geraldine had been a great source of help to them and offered to put me in contact, to which I thought, 'I have nothing to lose'.

Geraldine kindly reached out to me, and we briefly spoke where I gave a light overall summary of how work had impacted me and how I had taken on a new role where I didn't feel worthy and felt like I could relate to 'imposter syndrome' and felt my confidence slipping away. From my very first session, I felt something had 'lifted' inside. Geraldine taught me some coping mechanisms, and I was sceptical, but I also opted to have several hypnotherapy sessions for confidence-boosting, which must have worked, as I had to travel for work meetings and I have this odd fear of getting lost.

I found myself going for breakfast/dinner on my own, walking some distance to the venue, and taking in the sights as I walked in a country I had never been to before, surrounded by competitive strangers—something I would never have done previously without internal panic!

Therefore, it's worth contacting Geraldine. Keep an open mind, as, like me, you may not think something has worked until you find yourself in 'that' situation and achieving all those things you thought were blocking you."
