Shrink Wrap

A psychologist’s take on world events, life, happiness and the human condition

Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis is a unique state of deep relaxation in which the body and intellect have checked out, yet essential parts of the mind remain awake and attentive. It’s considered to be the doorway to the subconscious.

Hypnotherapy is used to help change unwanted behaviours or feelings into more constructive, desirable habits and states.

You can try hypnotherapy at home. I like the simple, well-constructed hypnotherapy recordings by Uncommon Knowledge. They have hundreds of topics on everything you could imagine, such as these:

Stephanie Thompson psychologist

Shrink Wrap is a blog by corporate psychologist, ponderer of mysteries, functional medicine enthusiast, yoga geek, dancer and nearly-author, Stephanie Thompson.  That’s me.

I write about human nature, happiness (how to have it), and psychology for business people.  I also roll out the occasional treatise on world affairs from a psychological perspective, when the urge strikes me.
