One of things you’re “supposed” to do when you eat more healthily is reduce the salt in your food.

Food manufacturers are doing their bit to help by cutting down on the amount of salt they use in their recipes.

Trouble is, most of us end up reaching for the salt cellar and adding at least as much salt as the food manufacturers have taken out.

So how do you go about cutting your salt intake but keeping your palate happy?

Shopping addiction - unless you’re “just looking” - can be an expensive hobby.

You may be addicted to shopping because you’re a shopaholic and like buying new things. Or you may be like an increasing number of people who “comfort shop” to help make them feel better, at least until the credit card bill arrives.

Whatever the cause of your compulsive shopping addiction, help is at hand.

We all know a “grumpy old man”. Heck, there’s even been a television series about them.

But if you really do suffer from irritable male syndrome, what can be done about it?

Sure, you may enjoy being ratty some of the time. But there are occasions when it would be better for all concerned if you could just lighten up. But how can you do that?

Fear of flying is quite normal. At best, it means you get nervous before boarding a flight. At worst, it can stop you from ever flying.

Quite often, the fear is based on a number of different factors.

The good news is that it’s possible to overcome your phobia of flying.

Covert hypnosis, often referred to as conversational hypnosis, sounds great.

But is it really possible to hypnotize someone just by talking to them?

I know, we’re less than a week in to the new year.

If you’ve kept all of them, congratulations!

But go on, admit it, have you really kept all those resolutions you made?

This article in the  American Chronical has more details, but the main reasons we do this are:

1. We make the resolutions too complicated or too severe to follow.
2. They’re negative - focusing on what you’re not going to do,  rather than what you are going to do.
3. We’re denying an important need instead of working out how to change that to something positive. So for instance instead of focusing on our weight and over-eating, we should be looking at how to enjoy our food more.
4. We expect to fail. We make resolutions but don’t really expect to keep them. Which becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
5. We don’t get any support. Instead of telling the whole world, concentrate on just telling those people who will support you in your goals.

So, if you’ve already given up on your New Years resolutions, read more about repairing them in this article.

And if you need help with anything specific, there’s almost certainly a hypnosis track available for it in our hypnosis store.

January 4th is World Hypnotism Day.

Look out for events and open days near you as hypnotists the world over share their expertise and maybe even give out sample hypnosis sessions.

The official World Hypnotism Day site is here.

Amongst other things, there’s a box where you can sign up to get 4 hypnosis audios covering weight loss, stopping smoking, feeling younger and sleeping soundly.

There’s also an event locater so you see if they know about anything happening close to you.

Another year.

Another batch of New Years resolutions.

How often have you made a resolution in the heat of the moment, only to realize a few days later that there’s no way you can stick to it without some form of outside help.

We all start the new year fresh. It’s really going to be different this time. Honest.

Then a few days later, we’re back in the old routine. Back at work. Back taking the kids to school. Whatever we’ve been doing, year in, year out, for what seems like forever.

So how can you make this year different?

Start by picking one or at most two resolutions.

Not some great big list, like Earl carries around.

Just one or at most two resolutions. So you can remember them. And stand a much better chance of sticking to them.

Next, announce your resolution to as many people as possible.

Tell friends and work colleagues.

Post it on Facebook.

Write about it on your blog.

Then, get help to keep it.

Most of us make our resolutions as breaking a habit we want rid of. Whether it’s carrying too much weight, quitting smoking, whatever.

One of the easiest ways to get help is with hypnosis.

You don’t need to book a session with a local hypnotist (although these are often excellent and can be tailored to your exact needs). Instead, you can act on impulse and download a hypnosis track like one of the hundreds of hypnosis MP3s in our store.

Then simply listen to the track on a daily basis. You’ll find yourself keeping your resolution longer this year just with this simple trick!

If you’re like most people, you make a bunch of New Years Resolutions every year.

And you’re probably also like most people in that by the end of January, your resolutions are dead and buried. Waiting to be remembered in a guilty moment in a few months time. And brought back to the life at the start of January next year.

Only to be ignored again.

How can you stop this unhelpful cycle of making promises to yourself and then promptly breaking them?

Start with some focus.

Instead of making tens or even hundreds of New Years resolutions, pick one.

That’s right, just one.

You’ll remember what it is, because there’s only one thing to remember.

So will everyone you tell about it.

Yup, broadcast your new years resolution to the world.

Tell your friends.

And enemies - for once, they might be useful. They’ll be the first to let you know you’ve strayed and wiping the gleeful smirk off their face will be an extra incentive to keep your resolution this year.

Write it on your blog.

Post a sticky note everywhere you look.

You shouldn’t be able to turn anywhere without being reminded of your new goal.

Then get extra help.

Buy a hypnosis MP3 from our store. There’s bound to be a relevant one there. They’re cheap and easy. Just play it on a regular basis.

The ideal is to play your helper track at least once a day. Make the time to do this by cutting out irrelevant things in your life like watching the television news (in the unlikely event of anything important happening, you’ll be told).

If you miss a day or slip from your task, don’t quit. Go back to it with new vigor.

If you could stick to the resolution without slipping, you’d already have done it. Treat these setbacks with the contempt they deserve and win out over them!

Good luck keeping your New Years resolution this year.
