About this audiobook

Does your young child seem to lack self-confidence? This gently relaxing, imaginative download for quiet-time or bedtime listening for five- to eight-year-olds could well be your answer.

Children imagine drifting off to a lovely garden where they find a pack of special balloons. They blow any worries or self-doubt into the balloons and watch them float off into the sky. Then they discover their magic confidence pebble by the garden pond and, picking it up, feel themselves filled with confidence. They see their reflection in the pond and notice how confident and special they are.

Finally they visualise themselves happily carrying out their normal everyday activities at home and at school, now feeling more confident and with more belief in themselves. With regular listening this confidence becomes more and more apparent.

This successful approach is based on natural, safe, sound hypnotherapy principles: act out each positive step in the imagination and dramatically increase the chance of success in the real world. The recording uses state of the art technology.

Regular listening is the key to success!

A First Way Forward audio production.

About the author

Lynda Hudson, a former teacher, is a fervent believer in the benefits of hypnotherapy for children. Having retrained and worked in this field since the early 90s, she has helped thousands of children and teenagers either face to face or through her hypnotherapy CDs and MP3s. The recordings deal with a wide range of topics and different age groups and help with anxiety, fears, confidence, self esteem, hospital visits to name but a few areas. Lynda also has a range for adults and is continually adding new titles. She believes passionately that mistaken myths of hypnosis need to be dispelled so that people can understand that hypnotherapy for children in the hands of a well trained and experienced practitioner is a gentle, natural drug free experience which can be amazingly empowering. This gentleness and warmth comes across in her voice so that children can feel totally at ease. She gives masterclasses in the Use of Hypnosis with Children for some of the most prestigious hypnosis organisations in the country.Not only does she run a successful practice and give training courses, Lynda is the author of two highly acclaimed handbooks for therapists. She has received glowing praise for these books by highly respected colleagues, authors, presidents of eminent hypnotherapy associations and societies in Australia, Ireland and the USA as well as in her home country, the UK. She has been a clinical hypnosis lecturer and examiner for the London College of Clinical Hypnosis and taught clinical hypnosis for Thames Medical Lectures. Lynda has a first class honours degree in Psychology and Diploma in Applied Linguistics. She has diplomas in Clinical Hypnosis, Stress Management, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and other branches of psychotherapy.
