    About this audiobook

    Does your child find it difficult to get to sleep? This gentle, relaxing program for kids about 8 years and older, (and even adults too) can be really helpful and calming. 

    Children relax comfortably, imagining breathing in the color of calm and breathing out worrying thoughts or feelings. Using an imaginary paintbrush or gold glitter pen, they paint or write down any worries on to a sheet of white paper and then fold it up over and over and squeeze it into a matchbox. Everyday household sounds such as gurgling radiators or creaking stairs are re-framed with a safe twist and they are encouraged to feel peaceful and at ease.

    This successful approach is based on natural, safe, sound hypnotherapy principles: act out each positive step in the imagination and dramatically increase the chance of success in the real world. This recording uses state of the art technology with layered voices panning from left to right and is particularly effective when you listen on headphones.

    Lynda's gentle, English voice calms and re-assures as she gives suggestions for boosting confidence and self esteem. As a former teacher and Clinical Hypnotherapist of many years standing, she has helped thousands of children world-wide through her audio-books. She has been featured in the press, TV and radio, and is the author of two widely acclaimed books on hypnotherapy for children and adults.

    Regular listening is the key to success!
