How do you determine whose style to discuss that week?  I follow different media outlets as well as social media accounts to see what the celebs have been up to. Usually, I choose the ones that I think are either best or worst dressed so that I can discuss their style. Some are just in the media more often than others and I pay attention to those more. Some are more fashionable than others and I want my viewers to take inspiration from them. Some are less particular about their style and I want to point that out and spark a conversation.  Which are the criteria to fit the 'trivia and fun facts' other than they are a celebrity as a basic?  The reason why I do Trivia and Fun facts about celebs is because I think that us, simple folk, should know more about ...

What is the most interesting hypnotherapy case you have ever seen? What problems did you help to solve? Well, so many of my clients bring interesting cases to me, everyone is different and so therefore interesting in their own way. But one case that stands out was a client who had “misophonia” – which meant that she experienced a heightened feeling of anxiety or “fight or flight response” in response to certain sounds – mainly that of other people eating.

For example, they get cancer roughly the same rate as humans do and just like us, as they age, inflammation sets in and causes arthritis.
