Darin and the power of transformation

1st November, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

Ten months ago I had a therapy session with a wheezy fat bloke. I’d been asked to see him by Sandra, the founder of Thinking Slimmer, who had contacted him after he’d been crucified in the press for suggesting that he should put on weight to get a gastric band operation that he had been […]

Wilma, an amazing dog with two brains.

13th October, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

I know it’s probably rare for a blog that usually focuses on therapy issues to turn into a health report on a little dog, but a lot of you have asked me for an update on Wilma, and this seemed a good way of doing it. And if you’re interested in the brain I think […]

Trevor and Bex on the Jeni Barnett show

26th September, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

We’re very happy to have become Jeni’s resident Agony Aunt and Uncle – reducing it, rather than increasing it, we hope. The subject this time was anxiety, and Bex and Trevor share a Cognitive Hypnotherapy perspective on the issue, along with some tips on how you can take more control of your fears. The songs […]

A magical start to the day

15th September, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

I got up to run a half marathon this morning. By 6.45am I was in the fens, surrounded by a glorious morning. The wind had dropped – sometimes it takes the tail of a hurricane to make you appreciate stillness – and the air had the definite bite of Autumn. Not long now before a […]

Our youngest son got married

9th August, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

There are days that punctuate our lives, and weddings tend to be one of them. They can also be opportunities to count your blessings, and to tune into the circle of life. Our second son got married last Saturday. The ceremony was conducted in Orleans House in Richmond, a beautiful location built by George II […]

Only Amy knew

29th July, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

On Sunday I was booked to appear on the Jeni Barnett show on BBC Radio London. It was for an hour and the plan was just for me to take calls about how Cognitive Hypnotherapy can help people with their problems. I was really looking forward to it. I awoke on Sunday morning to hear […]

Trevor on the Jeni Barnett show

27th July, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

I was invited onto the show by the lovely Jeni. As well as talking about Cognitive Hypnotherapy I also got to speak to some listeners about insomnia, low self-esteem and procrastination. Oh, and weight loss and the producer’s jealousy. It was a busy time. I’ve edited out the music to save you time. Ooh – […]

A fear of public speaking? What’s that about?

7th July, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

presenting

An event last weekend was one of my highlights of the year – and for the second year in a row. In 2010 we launched a presentation skills workshop for Questies interested in adding training to their income stream. It was a magical, transformative three days that went far beyond my expectations, and the feedback […]

Hypnosis is almost trivial, yet, err, potent.

7th June, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

It takes a lot to make my wife Bex rant. It takes even more for her to still be ranting at dinner to something she heard that morning. Dr Peter Naish obviously has a gift. He was reported widely in the press yesterday talking about hypnosis being used more widely within the NHS. This is […]

Slimpods work! Read all about it!

2nd June, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

The Daily Express recruited several of their staff to listen to a Slimpod, a recording designed and recorded by Trevor to help people lose weight, and available through Thinking Slimmer. As you can read, the results surprised them. The use of hypnotic suggestion has been one of the key elements of Cognitive Hypnotherapy from the […]

Books by Trevor Silvester

Cognitive Hypnotherapy: What's that about and how can I use it? - Two simple questions for change
This book defines an exciting new approach to the field of therapy and counselling. Cognitive Hypnotherapy is a model that can be used to create a unique treatment plan for each client, using techniques drawn from any school of thought, integrated into a single model that uses the clients own mind to solve their own problems.


Wordweaving: The Science of Suggestion - A Comprehensive Guide to Creating Hypnotic Language
In this new approach to the use of hypnotic suggestion, we aim to free you from the constraints of scripts and enable you to use your creative skill to weave subtle spells that empower your clients by changing their model of reality.


The Question is the Answer: Focusing on Solutions with Cognitive Hypnotherapy (Wordweaving 2)
This book builds on the model introduced in Wordweaving, and shows you how to ask the questions that will provide you with the information you need to create hypnotic language patterns specifically for each client.


Lovebirds: How to Live with the One You Love
One of the biggest mistakes we make is to treat other people as if they are just like us. I've been helping couples improve their lives together for over 20 years, and one thing is clear to me: most couples don't flounder through lack of love, but through a lack of understanding. Lovebirds will teach you how to live with the one you love.
