   Kim Kardashian uses Natal Hypnotherapy and hypnosis

   It has been reported that the reality television star Kim Kardashian is hunting for solutions to her pregnancy problems and the anxiety of her birthing that she has been concerned about.
   

   Earier this month, on Mother's Day in the USA, Kim revealed that she was nervous and anxious about her impending motherhood. Kim, who is expecting her first child with boyfriend rapper Kanye West, has sought the help of a hypnotherapist to manage her anxiety about giving birth.

   "Kim has been seeing a hypnotherapist to help her deal with her anxiety about giving birth," a friend of the Kardashian family told HollywoodLife.

   Kim made the decision after learning about its effectiveness in curing the morning sickness of pregnant Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton. "She got the idea from Kate Middleton who had been working with a hypnotherapist that helped her with morning sickness," the source added to the website.

   In December 2012, Kate Middleton was admitted to hospital for experiencing a severe form of morning sickness known as Hyperemesis Gravidarum. It was widely reported that hypnotherapy was helping Kate to manage her condition. The hypnotherapy takes away any negative thoughts connected with food from the morning sickness, and replaces them with cravings for healthy, nutritious food.

   Hypnotherapy has gained much more popularity among pregnant women recently. More and more women are seeking hypnotherapy during their pregnancy to help with a wide range of health concerns, including morning sickness and anxiety which can both be quite debilitating. When people in the public eye like Kate Middleton and Kim Kardashian are showing how well it works then it can only help to spread the word further about how you can relax and enjoy the birth of your child.

2. Dan Brown on Inferno and the subconscious mind just like hypnosis

   Posted on 8:51am Monday 20th May 2013

   It's unlikely that the publication of the new Dan Brown Novel Inferno will have escaped your notice recently. The best selling author's latest book is based upon Dante's Inferno, which is the first of the seven stages of hell in his Divine Comedy, which he says inspired him to write the story. As ever, it is another roller coaster of a ride which his millions of readers love and critics seem to despise. Dan Brown appeared on BBC Breakfast to promote the novel and had some interesting things to say about his writing process.

   He gets up at 4am every morning (just like I did when I did my early morning radio show, so I have some understanding of the time!). He explained that at this time in the morning it is just like the time between waking and sleeping and dreaming, and his imagination is working on overdrive, and this means that he is really able to utilise the subconscious. It was very interesting hearing him explain things this way because it has a great comparison to the way that hypnosis works. He even said that he tries to give himself lucid dreams by thinking about what he needs to change in the story before he goes to bed. With hypnotherapy we use hypnosis to access that creative subconscious and whilst Dan Brown isn't talking directly about hypnosis it is clear that he is really practicing self hypnosis to help him in the creative process.

   In the same way that children have wonderful imaginations (before we tell them at school to 'stop daydreaming!') Dan Brown is using his imagination to create stories that have an appeal to millions of people across the world.

   Just take a second to think how successful he has been by using his mind and his imagination and I think it will tell you all you need to know about how we can utilise the power of our minds!
