Destiny & Free Will

I've come to the conclusion that Man (or indeed Woman) is not born with Free Will.

We leave our mother's womb with genetic predispositions; our experiences in the first few years our our life will deeply impact how we think about ourselves and how we relate to other people; our environment will further mould our experience and thinking. So by the time we're able to rationally consider our choices, we have already become deeply conditioned!

Allowing ourselves to become aware of this conditioning is the first step towards developing Free Will.

Yes, we want to make informed choices.

Yes, we want to live and work ethically.

Yes, we have social obligations as well as dreams and aspirations.

Understanding the underlying behavioural patterns which up 'til now have led us to make our life-choices and decisions means that if something is no longer working for us or we no longer want to go down a certain route, we can decide to make a change. NLP can provide techniques to help us move into a new reality.

Awareness + decision + action.

Free Will starts with becoming aware. Willpower, backed by congruent, focused actions can set you on a new path. Your destiny is to be all you can be.

Testimonials

I went to Anne-Marie during a particularly difficult time emotionally. My husband of 31 years had left me for a much younger woman and I was finding it very difficult to cope and move on with my life.

I found Anne-Marie very empathetic and caring. She listened carefully to the details of my situation and did not offer advice but rather talked to me about what she could offer in terms of helping me make the changes within myself that would enable me to become stronger and move on emotionally.

During the hour I was with her we not only talked but she used some of these techniques - Swishing and Timeline. I found the use of visualisation to help me map a course for myself very powerful and I left feeling much more positive, calmer and brighter - as though my concern and worries had been removed.

I can thoroughly recommend Anne-Marie as a therapist and healer.

Ann Landels, Edinburgh.

I am writing to thank you for the help you gave me a few weeks back and for the amazing, ongoing result.

As a bit of a control freak I was hesitant about undertaking hypnotherapy. It was therefore important for me to get your explanation of a trance and to learn that I would remain in control and could come out of it at any moment by opening my eyes. I had only seen the TV version before so my perception was a bit skewed!!!

In the few minutes we were together I felt total relaxation and I still can't believe that I can replicate that feeling whenever I choose by touching my "anchor". I still get anxious but now when I feel the symptoms starting I simply hold my wrist and the feelings melt away. It's bizarre!

Linda Riddell, Edinburgh.

I have found working with Anne-Marie a very rewarding experience. She has helped me resolve issues using her undoubted NLP skills and our sessions together have been very relaxing & enjoyable.

Anne-Marie has been extremely supportive throughout and I would have no hesitation in recommending her services to anybody.

David Spink, Essex.

Anne-Marie is a wonderful healer. She helped me with some very serious issues I have been struggling with for a long time. She used both hypnotherapy and NLP techniques and she was very calming and achieved brilliant results.

I would strongly recommend Anne-Marie as a therapist and would like to thank her for all the changes she's helped me make in my life.

Lesley Vik, London.

Anne-Marie has a natural talent to establish a powerful rapport, through her relaxed, professional approach. I have worked with Anne-Marie on a number of issues over a period of time using various NLP techniques, and the outcomes have been both profound and lasting.

Highly recommended.

Andy Napier, Edinburgh.

Having had only one session with Anne-Marie, I cannot recommend her highly enough.

She takes the time to understand you and what you want to achieve from the session, explains the process clearly and helps you connect deeply to ensure your goals are met.

I went to her with negativity that I had carried around with me for years and, almost a week after clearing it during the session, it has still not returned.

I feel as if my life is back on track in that regard and I couldn't be more grateful!

Dawn Thomson, Edinburgh

I arrived for my EmoTrance session with a limited knowledge of what was involved. Anne-Marie made me feel welcomed and at ease. She clearly explained the process and with her support I selected an issue that was important to me.

With Anne-Marie's warm guidance I was able to work through this issue in a positive way, and felt it melt away. I feel that under Anne-Marie's guidance, EmoTrance is a helpful technique that can help you with your journey through life.
