Thank you for visiting my website. My name is Derek Ayre, and I ran and managed Ayre Hypnotherapy
in Cardiff, UK
from 1976 to 2009 when I stopped seeing clients on a face-to-face basis.
However, I am only in semi-retirement and doubt
whether I will ever retire completely and stop
helping and supporting people by answering
questions or pointing them in the right direction
in order to help improve the quality of their life. On this page, I will
endeavour to outline my personal
philosophy of life, that is also the philosophy I
have held
as a therapist for the past 30 years or so.
My aim is to assist others to
improve the quality
of life through free advice via , meditation CDs,or MP3
recordings, instant
messenger (by arrangement) or recommended books. The main aim of my website is to demonstrate
to others that they can indeed become their own therapist using self-hypnosis, and
meditation
techniques. Apart from my meditation CDs,or MP3
recordings, I do not make a charge for any
information or guidance I can give you from
this website. All I ask, is that if you decide
to purchase any book or product that you see advertised
on this site, that you place your order via
the product links
on this site because that way I earn a small commission
and it will help with the expenses of keeping
my website on line. Thank you
The Value of Books
It is through books that many people start to make a difference in their
lives and I fully believe in the power of the written word to help
focus the mind and transcend negativity.
However, in pursuing self-development and self-esteem, the types of books
that are needed to be read are those that will give you much more than just intellectual
information and knowledge. They are...
- The type of books
that will inspire you to take action
- The type of books to inspire
you to DO WHATEVER IT TAKES in your day-to-day life
- The type of books to improve the quality of
your life,
- The type of books to inspire you to
create the confidence in yourself to MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
Because that is what we as
human beings aspire to. We really want to make a difference in some aspect
or another. Ask yourself, "where do I want to make a difference?" or "where do I need to make a difference?"
Once you get clear on the answer to these questions,
the results will come naturally.
It is no good reading a book and merely saying to yourself, "that sounds
like a good idea" and then doing nothing. You will need to commit to act
on the principles and instructions/advice for a long enough period
of time to see whether or not that particular book works for you. Then, if it doesn't, move
on, book an appointment with or talk to or e-mail a hypnotherapist to discover
if hypnotherapy is something that's going to
work for you.
Consultation On Line
I have discovered in my experience
with my Internet clients on line, (which
has been for approximately 10-12 years),
that it is indeed very possible to help people
using a combination of guided meditation CDs,or MP3s
and e-mail consultations, and make a big difference
in their lives. As you may already realise,
I am a Zen
practitioner and this strongly influences
my approach to clients.
In Zen, it is said, when the student is ready, the master will appear. The
"master" comes to give vital information at the right time.
The master can
come not only in the form of a person, but a book, life situation, internet
page or article or something else. Then, once the "lesson"
is learned, the student
can discard that particular master, and choose to move on to the next. I
say "choose" because as human beings we always have a choice, a free will
about whether we continue to grow or stand still. And sometimes we may need
to stand still and take stock of where we have come from and where we are
going. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to use
the e-mail link below to contact me. Please
be assured that your e-mail address will remain
confidential on not be passed on to a third
person.
Below are some books, availabe in both U.K and U.S.A. that I have found invaluable
in my own growth and development as a hypnotherapist and as a Zen practitioner.
