We can lead extraordinary lives
and find fulfillment by listening
to what our problems and fears are telling us
and taking inspired action
to make the changes needed
to live a happy, healthy, abundant life.

Successful people are courageous.

We clear the fear, breakthrough boundaries,
overcome obstacles,
challenge the status quo,
refuse to give up,
because we consciously choose to move forward
and envision a brighter future for ourselves and create a better world for us all.

More information on your Thyroid from Women to Women

Thyroid Health from Women's Health Network personal health program.
"Your thyroid is one of the most important glands in your body. It controls the way you metabolize food, the way you use energy, lose and gain weight, how well or poorly you sleep, and much, much more. We know that women are more prone to thyroid conditions than men, and that many of these problems first manifest during times of hormonal flux, such as perimenopause and childbearing.

One of the best ways to support the thyroid gland through all of life's important changes is by eating more carefully. As we approach these transitions, perhaps it’s time for everyone to take a look at how the foods we eat can help — or hurt — our thyroid function. You may have heard conflicting information about iodine, soy, or even broccoli. Let’s get the facts straight by looking at how specific foods and supplements influence this master gland, and learn what you can do to support your thyroid health.
...

Some studies have shown that the isoflavones in soybeans inhibit the enzyme responsible for adding iodine to thyroid hormone, thyroid peroxidase (TPO). These and other studies also demonstrate, however, that soy’s effect on the thyroid involves the critical relationship between your iodine status and thyroid function. This means that if you have low iodine in your body, the soy isoflavone could bond to what iodine you do have, leaving you with an inadequate reserve for thyroid hormone production. Evidence suggests that if you have sufficient iodine in your body, eating soy will most likely not be a problem. And I’ve seen soy help so many women with menopausal symptoms that it would be a shame not to consider it as an option. (Just be sure it is not genetically modified soy.)
...

Start with whole food, and supplement as needed. Getting as many pro-thyroid nutrients through wholesome foods is ideal, but I know this isn’t always easy or even possible in our busy lives. Supplementing with a top-quality multivitamin–mineral complex, like the one we offer in our Personal Program, will provide the foundation you need for preventive thyroid health. If you already have thyroid imbalance, talk to your practitioner about using supplements before a prescription. The problem with prescriptions like Synthroid (levothyroxine) is that once you go on them, your thyroid backs down, and it can be difficult to get off of thyroid replacement drugs.

Get tested. I recommend having a full thyroid hormone panel, which is routine for many practitioner visits. But I also recommend testing your iodine, selenium, and vitamin D levels. Together, the results of these various tests should give both you and your practitioner a better sense of underlying conditions and how to begin your treatment.

Too much can be as bad as too little. While all of the micronutrients I’ve discussed above are important, overloading on just one will not help your thyroid or resolve your imbalance! There are many complex interactions between the pro-thyroid nutrients, especially iodine and selenium, so please work with your practitioner to find a gentle balance that is right for you.

Support your adrenals. I’ve so often seen that the underlying problem in a thyroid imbalance is overworked adrenal glands. To learn more about the intimate connection between stress, your thyroid and adrenal glands and how to better support them, see our articles on adrenal health.
...

This is perhaps one of the most overlooked pieces of advice in our modern lives: sit and enjoy your food! As women in today’s world, we are expected to do and be so many things that eating while standing at the kitchen counter, driving, or seated at your computer seems normal. But as you may have read in my article on hypothyroidism in menopause, the thyroid is very sensitive to stress. Give your mind, your body, and your thyroid a break by sitting in a comfortable space while you eat. Enjoy your meals in peace with friends and family, and talk, laugh, and allow the food you consume to nourish your thyroid, too. You deserve this break, and your body will thank you for it!"

WELCOME from SALLY HOLMES REED, owner of HYPNOSIS SEATTLE, your consulting hypnotist and certified hypnotherapist, here in Seattle, WA, USA.

Are you looking for help in solving your problems and achieving your goals?

At Hypnosis Seattle, my goal is to help you make positive changes in your life and get the good feelings you want, with more success and less stress.

Safe and effective, hypnosis uses leading edge science to make positive changes happen in your life. Did you know that through hypnosis you can free your subconscious mind to give you what you want?

Hypnosis allows you to enter a wonderful state of relaxation and heightened suggestibility. This will help you feel better, more energized and feel positive about creating whatever you desire in your life.

What are you willing to give yourself, and accept for yourself? Any thoughts and ideas that may have been troubling you, or your inability to reach your goal, can change to something that supports you completely.

Now I would like to help you experience how to use your mind to achieve what you want, make changes, reduce stress, break old habits and feel good about yourself.

You probably know that learning and change take place at an unconscious level. Hypnosis allows you to easily access the creative part of yourself. See yourself making new choices.

Discover how hypnosis will bypass your critical mind and create a special psychological state which allows you to learn, grow and make positive change happen quickly and easily.

Leaving you free at a conscious level to relax and enjoy your experience during your hypnosis session. It will happen automatically so you don’t have to think about it now.

Many clients have multiple issues that come up even if they come in with only one problem they want to solve. Hypnosis and the other processes I use are able to resolve complex issues on every level, even if you are not consciously aware of them.

Some clients discover the cause of one problem and clear it and find that other issues are resolved as well. I call it "extra wellness" when several problems get resolved while you are working on another.

Balance your body, mind and spirit, reduce the effects of stress, and heal your emotions with fun, easy, safe and effective processes that work on an unconscious level.
