This coming Monday 14th July at 2.00pm on ITV celebrity therapists "The Speakmans" get their own new tv series. In the past they appeared in a reality tv show on a cable channel and Nik and Eva are regulars on This Morning with Phil and Holly.

The tv show will air daily in the after lunch slot and as a clinical hypnotherapist I am really looking forward to watching it myself. The Speakmans always seek out people with unusual phobias who make interesting television viewing. Normally I see people with fears of flying, or spiders or perhaps a fear of speaking in public such as being a best man. For Nik and Eva Speakman of course this isn't exciting enough so they will be dealing with more unusual cases..they start the first show helping a lady who is terrified of ice.

It is great to see that the idea that you can let go of a fear or phobia is being spread across the media. I work with clients every day who lose their fear and phobia and then realise that life is so much better without it. My only reservation is that their methods often seem mysterious and it is almost as if they do not want people to see how they help others. Surely, showing what they do can only help others rather than making it mysterious !?

Once the show airs I will post a full review of the show and some more help and advice. In the meantime you can read all about help with phobias HERE Help with fears and phobias.

There is now a full summary and review of this show just click HERE for the Review of The Speakmans on ITV

Hypnotherapy helps actress motiviate herself to exercise

Olivia Munn the 'Magic Mike' actress has been speaking about the hypnotherapy session that she had. She has explained that she only started working out a year ago when she went to a hypnotherapist who told her to hit the gym every morning at 6am - and she has been doing it ever since.

''I used to never exercise because I just hated the idea of all of it. But I saw this hypnotist (I have an OCD called Trichotillomania) and in one session he threw something in about working out and by the next week I was up every morning at 6am. I've been working out consistently ever since, and it's been almost a year now.''

Olivia, 34, also revealed she invented her own diet which involved only eating meals where she could see every single ingredient.

She said: ''In 2009, I lost 16 pounds in two months because I came up with my own diet which was if I can't see it I can't eat it. If I go to a restaurant and say I'll have the soup, I can't see every single ingredient they put in - how much salt? How much sugar?

''I can't see it unless I make it myself at home, so that takes away breads and other hidden ingredients.''

While the brunette bombshell admits she sometimes feels insecure about her Chinese heritage, she thinks it's important to change the all-American standard of beauty.

She explained: ''When I was younger, what I saw as the face of beauty was very standard all-American white blonde hair blue eyes.

''So any time I feel uncomfortable, or I wish something was different, I just have to wash it away because I have to be a role model for my niece, and if I have daughters be role models for them and be comfortable with myself.''
