The Word Weaving approach underpins our work at North Kent Hypnotherapy. Unlike many traditional hypnotherapists who have a script for every client issue, we believe in tailoring each intervention to the specific client. As Word Weaving suggests, the problem is not the problem; it is the clients unique relationship to the problem that's the problem. A smoking script may stop one person from ever lighting another cigarette, but have absolutely no effect on another.

In Word Weaving, Trevor Silvestor of The Quest Institute has combined the latest research in Neuroscience, Evolutionary Psychology and NLP to put together a working model for structuring specific suggestions. Although aimed at the practitioner, the book provides an interesting and informative read allowing the general public an insight into the inner working of the mind and the magical power of language.

It describes how our unconscious minds are responsible for most of our day to day behaviour, often outside our direct control, and how each person's reality is subjectively created by their, often limiting, internal model of the world.

Authentic Happiness is the title book and website of Dr Martin E.P. Seligman, author of 'Learned Optimism'. Dr Seligman is one of the key proponents in the field of 'Positive Psychology'.

Positive Psychology focuses on a persons strengths rather than weaknesses, and asserts that happiness is created, rather than the result of good genes or luck. Dr Seligman teaches readers that happiness can be cultivated by identifying and using many of the strengths and traits that they already possess--including kindness, originality, humor, optimism, zest, and generosity. A key concept is that of Signature Strengths - we are happiest when we we can express our signature strengths in our daily lives.

The Authentic Happiness website contains much information on Positive Psychology, as well as around 18 free questionnaires on various aspects of Positive Psychology. If you do nothing else, we recommend you take the Signature Strengths questionnaire as it is very illuminating.
