Here's the thing: failure is not the end; it's an essential part of the journey toward success.
When we let Atychiphobia dictate our actions, we miss out on incredible opportunities for growth and self-discovery. We become stuck in our comfort zones, fearing the unknown and avoiding risks. But true growth and achievement lie just beyond the edge of that comfort zone.
It's important to remember that some of the most successful people in history faced failures and setbacks along their paths. They didn't let Atychiphobia stop them; instead, they viewed failure as a stepping stone toward success.
To overcome Atychiphobia, we must reframe our perspective on failure. It's not a reflection of our worth or ability; it's a chance to learn, adapt, and grow stronger. Each setback brings valuable lessons and insights that can propel us forward.
Let's embrace failure as an integral part of the journey and shift our focus from the fear of failure to the excitement of progress. Set clear goals, break them down into manageable steps, and celebrate each small victory along the way. Surround yourself with supportive and encouraging people who lift you up when you stumble.
Remember, our dreams and aspirations are worth pursuing, even if they come with a risk of failure. So let's acknowledge our fears, face them head-on, and watch as we grow beyond our wildest dreams.
Did you know our balms and meditations can help to reduce anxiety?
Our balms can help you feel calmer, more peaceful and in control of your thoughts.

Hypnotherapy is an incredibly powerful tool that taps into the depths of our subconscious minds, facilitating positive changes and personal growth. It's a therapeutic technique that helps individuals achieve a state of deep relaxation and heightened focus, but it does not grant anyone control over another person's thoughts or actions.
Let's dive in:
Our minds are not susceptible to external control like a puppet on strings. Hypnotherapy works by inducing a state of heightened suggestibility, enabling individuals to access their subconscious and explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. It empowers individuals to tap into their own inner resources, facilitating self-exploration and healing.
During hypnotherapy, we maintain complete awareness of our surroundings and maintain the ability to make choices. Contrary to popular belief, we don't surrender our free will or become passive recipients of someone else's commands. Instead, we work collaboratively with the hypnotherapist, establishing trust and openness to work towards our desired goals.
Hypnotherapy is rooted in the principles of consent and ethical practice. Certified hypnotherapists undergo extensive training to ensure they uphold professional standards, emphasizing client autonomy and well-being. They guide individuals through the process, providing support, encouragement, and empowering suggestions tailored to their unique needs and goals.
Hypnotherapy can be an effective approach to addressing a range of issues, from managing stress and anxiety to overcoming fears and breaking unwanted habits. It offers a safe and supportive environment for personal transformation, where the power ultimately lies within ourselves.
Let's dispel the myth and embrace the truth: Hypnotherapy is a collaborative and empowering process, allowing individuals to explore their subconscious and effect positive change. It's a tool that respects our autonomy, helping us unleash our inner potential.

Bespoke balms to elevate your mood and manage your mindset πΏ
Imagine planting seeds of positivity in your mind, allowing them to bloom and create a vibrant garden
It all starts with the messages you feed your subconscious on a daily basis. π
Embrace the beauty of affirmations: Speak kindly to yourself, and watch as your self-belief blossoms. Remind yourself that you are capable, deserving, and filled with endless potential. Your subconscious will absorb these uplifting words, gradually shaping your mindset and guiding your actions. πΌ
Surround yourself with positive influences: Choose your company wisely. Spend time with individuals who radiate positivity, encouragement, and inspiration. Their energy will seep into your subconscious, igniting a fire of motivation within you. Remember, you become who you surround yourself with. β¨
Journal your dreams into reality: Take a few minutes each day to jot down your goals and aspirations. Write them as if they have already been achieved. By visualizing your dreams and engraving them into your subconscious, you align your entire being with the path to success. π
Feed your mind with goodness: Be mindful of the media you consume. Opt for uplifting books, motivational podcasts, and empowering content that nourishes your subconscious. Fill your mind with positivity, and watch how it transforms your outlook on life. π‘
Embrace gratitude as a way of life: Each day, express gratitude for the blessings, big and small. By training your subconscious to appreciate the beauty around you, you invite more positivity and abundance into your life. Gratitude is the key that unlocks an endless cycle of joy. π
Let your mind become a sanctuary of positivity, propelling you towards your dreams. Remember, you hold the power to shape your reality through the thoughts you cultivate. πβ¨

Derived from the Candelilla shrub native to Mexico, Candelilla Wax is a fantastic plant-based alternative to beeswax in various cosmetic products, especially balms.
Here's why it's a win-win for both our skin and the environment:
πΏ Vegan and Cruelty-Free: Candelilla wax is 100% vegan and cruelty-free, making it an ideal choice for those who embrace an ethical lifestyle. By opting for Candelilla wax, we can avoid supporting the exploitation of bees and still enjoy high-quality balms.
π± Natural and Sustainable: Harvesting Candelilla wax doesn't harm the plant itself, as it's collected from the shrub's outer coating, leaving it intact and able to regenerate.
π§ Moisturizing Powerhouse: Candelilla wax boasts excellent emollient properties, creating a protective barrier on the skin's surface, preventing moisture loss and locking in hydration. This makes it an excellent choice for lip balms, hand creams, and other moisturizing products.
π¬ Skin-Friendly: Candelilla wax is well-tolerated by most skin types and doesn't clog pores. It has a lightweight texture that allows for easy absorption, leaving your skin feeling nourished and silky smooth.
β»οΈ Eco-Conscious: Choosing Candelilla wax promotes sustainability and reduces our ecological footprint. By opting for plant-based alternatives, we can help preserve our planet's delicate ecosystems while still enjoying the benefits of high-quality balms.
By making conscious choices, we can support ethical practices and still indulge in fantastic skincare products. Let's keep our lips hydrated, our skin nourished, and our planet happy!

We all know how evocative certain aromas and smells can be.
Our sense of smell is one of the greatest and most powerful senses that you have.
It can save your life.
Our sense of smell helps to avoid things that are bad for us such as rancid food and can also comfort us in many ways.
Notice how a certain smell can take you right back to your childhood or remind you of someone or someplace, sometimes positively and sometimes negatively.
At This Balm we use the aromas of essential oils amongst other ingredients to blend you something that not only smells delicious but also utilizes the therapeutic benefits of that aroma.
Once we have blended your balm one of our fully qualified therapists will record a personal therapeutic meditation for you.
These two things used in conjunction have a super powerful effect not only on the body but on the mind.
We will teach you how to completely relax so that your subconscious mind is open to all the lovely positive stuff in your therapeutic meditation recording.
Combined with your balm you really will have everything you need to start changing the messages in your mind and improve those annoying niggly bits of your life that you want to move on with.

Did you know our brains are like superheroes? π¦ΈββοΈβ¨
They have this amazing power called neuroplasticity!
Neuroplasticity is like giving your brain a gym membership - it's all about flexing those mental muscles and getting stronger every day. Just imagine your brain doing squats and bench presses! ποΈββοΈπ§
But here's the best part: your brain isn't stuck with the same old routine. Nope! It can learn new tricks, adapt, and grow like a champion.
It's like your brain is saying, "Hey, boring old habits, move over! I'm gonna try something new!"
So, whether you're learning a new language, playing an instrument, or even attempting to juggle flaming torches (okay, maybe not that one π
), remember that your brain is cheering you on! It's rewiring itself to make you the ultimate multitasking master.
Next time someone tells you, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks," show them your brain and say, "Watch me!" Because with neuroplasticity, you're never too old or too stuck in your ways to learn, grow, and become the best version of yourself. πβ¨
So go out there, embrace the power of neuroplasticity, and let your brain do some incredible mental gymnastics! π€ΈββοΈπ§ Just don't forget to stretch first! ππͺ
Meet our founder and CEO Amanda Strowbridge!
Amanda has been a coach, therapist, formulator, disruptor and educator in the wellness industry for 35 years. She has worked with thousands of clients from corporates such as Warner Bros, Channel 4 and Endamol to celebrities, CEOβs, and everyone in between.
15 years ago she trained in the science of Zoopharmacognosy, a behavioural science that studies the way that animals intrinsically choose and self-dose medicinal plants in their natural environment. She decided to test this science on her own human clients and found yes, humans still have the ability to choose their own ingredients and therapeutic remedies, depending on what the body and mind needs at that specific time.
Amanda has a busy private practice as a clinical hypnotherapist, NLP Master and physical therapist and wondered if this new discipline could be used in some way to help her clients with their mental as well as physical wellness.
