The Cooling Sanctuary

Help for hot flushes

6 weeks of neuroscience-backed hypnotherapy to regulate your nervous system, manage hot flushes, and feel comfortable, calm and at home in your skin again.

Hot flushes are not just a physical inconvenience.

They are intense, unpredictable spikes of internal heat that can leave you feeling blindsided, embarrassed and completely exhausted.

When your body feels like it is betraying you, it is incredibly difficult to stay calm, sleep deeply, or feel comfortable in your own skin.

You do not have to just grin and bear the heat.

The Cooling Sanctuary is a structured, 6-week online programme designed to help you regain control over your body’s internal thermostat.

By combining modern brain science with the deeply restorative power of guided relaxation, we work collaboratively to soothe the primitive alarm centre of your brain –gently retraining your nervous system to cool down, settle, and find its steady centre.

Your Journey
to a Cooler Centre

Our six online sessions are intentionally sequenced to move you away from fighting your physical symptoms, and toward lasting relief and self-compassion.

My signature approach gracefully combines the gentle neuroscience of Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy with specialized HypnoMenopause® techniques, providing a safe, deeply supportive framework for your body and mind.

  • We begin with a gentle, brain-based explanation of how midlife stress and menopause intersect in your nervous system.

    You will understand exactly why your "stress bucket" impacts your physical comfort and exacerbates hot flushes, and you’ll learn simple steps you can start to take now to feel better.

  • We step into your preferred future.

    By connecting with the calm, grounded wisdom of your future self, we identify exactly how you want to move forward in this chapter of your life - shifting your brain's focus from panic to possibility.

  • We dive into practical, somatic tools.

    You will learn a powerful neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) technique to create a physical "cooling anchor" - giving you an immediate way to summon a wave of mental and physical coolness whenever you feel a flush rising.

  • We use gentle cognitive reframing tools to quiet the hypercritical inner voice that panics when the heat rises.

    By replacing the internal self-criticism with self-compassion, we break the loop where a flush triggers anxiety, and anxiety triggers more heat.

  • Using a deeply relaxing hypnotic visualization, we access your mind's internal "control room."

    You will learn how to safely put your subconscious mind to work to turn down your inner temperature dial and reclaim physical sovereignty.

  • Here, we cement your progress.

    I will teach you the lifelong skill of self-hypnosis so you can enter your own quiet trance states independently, ensuring you can return to your steady, cool centre whenever you need to in the future.

    And we’ll identify the precise, unique language you’d love to hear in the bespoke hypnosis I will record for you after this session.

FAQs

How can hypnotherapy help me with hot flushes / NIGHT SWEATs?

1

We often think of the brain and body as being separate, when, in fact, they're completely connected.

Everything we think impacts us at a physical level (take a moment to think of something which causes you fear, and notice how your body reacts).

Hypnotherapy can help us connect with our body at a deep level and, in addition to changing the messages we offer ourselves, visualization triggers real physiological and neural changes in the body by activating the same brain pathways and autonomic responses as actual physical experiences.

Whatever physical menopausal symptoms you have, increasing your mind-body awareness has the capacity to help.

Is it guaranteed to help me?

As with any type of therapy, hypnotherapy isn't guaranteed to help.

However, if you are genuinely motivated to create change and are open to exploring hypnotherapy, like many clients it is likely you will see an improvement in your symptoms.

2

I’m on HRT. Is that a problem?

Not at all. If you're on HRT and wish to continue taking it, it's perfectly ok to use hypnotherapy alongside your medication as a complementary approach.

3

Can this be used as an alternative to HRT?

4

Everyone's experience is unique and whilst some women stay on HRT during this programme, others seek it out as an alternative therapy.

In clinical trials, hypnotherapy has been shown to have an effectiveness rate of up to 74% in the treatment of hot flushes - a similar success rate to HRT.

Hypnotherapy can also help with mood, sleep and sexual function so, for some women, it provides an effective alternative to medication.
