Elephant and Kiwi - from functioning to feeling - Nervous System, Awareness, Emotional Patterns

014 - Processing Grief: My story on what happened in my subconscious

In this episode, I talk about how I process grief, not in a theoretical way, but through a self‑hypnosis session that took me back almost 30 years. I explain how grief is stored in the subconscious mind, why we often function instead of feel, and how emotional patterns, the nervous system, and memory interact. If you’re trying to process your own grief or sense that something inside you is stuck, this episode offers an honest look into the inner processes that make healing possible.

013 - Breaking Old Patterns — Why You Repeat What Hurts (and How to Change It)

We repeat old patterns even when they hurt, not because we’re weak, but because our nervous system is wired for familiarity. In this episode, we explore why emotional triggers, stress and past experiences keep pulling you back into the same loops, and what actually helps you break them. Topics: patterns, nervous system, trauma responses, emotional triggers, change, healing Get yourself a free mp3 self-hypnosis www.elephantandkiwi.com/landing

You’re doing everything right — taking time for yourself, getting things done — and still something feels off.In this episode, we talk about stress, overwhelm, low energy, brain fog, and the subtle signs that you’re slipping back into functioning mode instead of feeling connected to yourself.

011 - Workplace Hypnosis — Stress, Self‑Worth & Why Personal Patterns Show Up at Work

You don’t become a different person when you walk into the office.The patterns you struggle with at home — stress, low self‑worth, overwhelm, emotional tension — show up at work in more socially acceptable ways. If you avoid conflict in relationships, you’ll avoid difficult conversations with colleagues.If you struggle with self‑worth privately, it affects visibility, confidence and performance professionally. In this episode, we explore how subconscious beliefs, stress patterns, and nervous system dysregulation shape your behaviour at work — often without you realising it. You’ll learn: • How subconscious beliefs affect performance• Why burnout is often emotional, not organisational• How childhood patterns show up as workplace stress• How hypnosis and nervous system regulation create lasting change If you’ve ever wondered, “Why do I react like this at work?”, this episode will help you understand the deeper patterns behind stress, overwhelm and emotional exhaustion — and how to shift them. → More info:www.elephantandkiwi.com/workplace-hypnosis → Free self‑hypnosis (nervous system reset):www.elephantandkiwi.com/landing Keywords: workplace stress, subconscious beliefs, self‑worth at work, burnout, hypnosis, professional growth, nervous system regulation

010 - Change Is Possible — Holistic Change, Nervous System & Subconscious Patterns

Change becomes exhausting when we try to force it.In this episode, we explore why change often feels like a constant struggle and how it becomes possible when we include the whole system: the body, the subconscious mind, and the nervous system. Using the example of dieting and lifestyle change, we look at: • why working with the body alone isn’t enough• how the subconscious mind and nervous system regulation influence behaviour• why ignoring inner safety leads to self‑sabotage • how a holistic approach creates sustainable, long‑term change This episode invites a gentler, more integrated view of change, one that doesn’t rely on discipline, but on understanding your internal patterns and emotional safety. Perfect for you if: • you’ve tried to change habits again and again• you feel stuck despite “doing everything right”• you’re tired of fighting yourself• you’re curious about subconscious, trauma‑informed, or nervous‑system‑based change A grounded perspective on sustainable change, personal growth, and the deeper patterns that shape your behaviour. → Free self‑hypnosis (nervous system reset):www.elephantandkiwi.com/landing Keywords: holistic change, subconscious mind, nervous system regulation, sustainable change, self‑sabotage, hypnosis, trauma‑informed coaching, personal growth, body and mind Check out my website for more details or follow me on social media Website [www.elephantandkiwi.com] Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/elephant_and_kiwi]Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561543588192]
