World Mental Health Day with Kristyn Livermore: Director of Westend Hypnosis, a certified Hypnotist, NLP Practitioner, and Human Behaviour Specialist

Imagine sinking into a warm bath after a long, draining day. The water eases your muscles, washes away the heaviness, and leaves you calm, refreshed, and lighter. It is a simple ritual, but it serves a purpose. It is time just for
you.

Just like a bath resets the body, hypnosis can reset the mind. Both invite you to pause, release what no longer serves you, and reconnect with your senses. Think about it. Imagining a bath is nothing like actually taking one. The same is true for the mind.

For many people, shifting into a more positive or useful mindset feels difficult. When sadness, anger, guilt, or resentment keep showing up, it can feel like being stuck in a corner with no way out. Your nervous system slips into fight or flight, which over time leaves you exhausted. These feelings are often tied to loss, stress, or life’s letdowns. Some move through them quickly, but for many, the weight lingers.

This is where hypnosis can help. With guided relaxation and focused attention, your subconscious mind opens to new perspectives. It is like stepping into a bath and letting the water carry away what does not belong. You begin to see more options, calm the nervous system, release unhelpful thought patterns, and create healthier ways of coping. Every session becomes an intentional reset, a way of building the “muscle” of resilience and choice.

Rituals amplify this effect. Personally, I love using Bathorium bath products as part of my reset. Running a bath with their blends signals my body that it is time to slow down and let go. Maybe for you it is a bath, maybe it is something else. Pairing that ritual with hypnosis becomes a powerful reminder that you deserve moments of peace, clarity, and
care.

And with World Mental Health Day coming up on October 10th, it is an important reminder that as a society, we need to value the spaces that nurture our mental well-being. Where the mind goes, the body follows. Rituals like a warm bath or hypnosis remind us that mental health is not a luxury, it is a necessity. What if you gave yourself permission to create that space? What could change? How would it feel to carry that = energy into your everyday life?

At Westend Hypnosis, I work with clients to uncover the thoughts that keep them stuck and help them shift into new ways of being. Through hypnosis and NLP, you can reframe the past, release old beliefs, build new habits, and create more balance. Just like no two baths feel exactly the same, hypnosis also works differently for each person. For some, the changes are immediate, for others, they unfold gradually. What matters is giving yourself the chance to slow down and reset.

In today’s nonstop world, both mind and body need intentional rest. Whether you are seeking relief from sadness, freedom from limiting patterns, or simply a deeper sense of peace, hypnosis can be that warm bath for your mind. And when you combine it with small rituals like a Bathorium soak, you create a reset that leaves you lighter, clearer, and more at ease.

If you are ready to give yourself that reset, book your free screening at Westend Hypnosis and start your journey toward balance, peace, and connection.
