Imposter Syndrome Part 1

• Effortlessly challenge the opinionated inner critic that creates your sense of imposter syndrome

• Change the story about yourself within your inner mind, using a variety of guided imagery techniques

• Relaxing small-group guided visualization workshop. Just close your eyes

• Recommended for those feeling like a fraud or undeserving of their own accomplishments

Do you have an inner critic that tells you you’re not good enough, smart enough or experienced enough? A lot of capable people do. Whilst there are many therapies that can help you to delve into the reasons why, if you’re having a challenging time at work, perhaps all you want is to simply quieten that voice down for a while.  Thankfully there’s now an easy, simple and effortless approach, using the power of your inner mind and imagination, to begin to challenge and change your own narrative about yourself. These two small-group workshops are an easy first step towards upgrading your own, often incorrect, beliefs about yourself and your abilities.

Two separately bookable workshops use a combination of deep relaxation techniques, plus vivid visualization and hypnotic suggestion, where you’ll be guided to visualize your own accomplishments in a different, more positive way. All you need do is imagine along with the suggestions given. Participants typically report feeling lighter, brighter and just more positive about themselves afterwards. The two sessions cover different techniques, to offer a deeper, richer experience. Attend one or both, depending on your needs.

• Imposter Syndrome Part 1: After introductions, the session begins with some very brief theory about what imposter syndrome is and why it occurs. Following some initial practice activities, the majority of the session is a 60-75min guided visualization using techniques* such as, celebrating your accomplishments, recognizing your inherent qualities and bringing forward qualities from the future more accomplished version of you. To further embed the changes and learning, consider the follow-on Part 2 workshop.

• Imposter Syndrome Part 2 (bookable separately): Building on from the Part 1 workshop, this optional session further embeds and consolidates the changes and learnings already achieved. It begins with introductions and some brief actionable advice about practical ways to overcome imposter syndrome. After some intial practice activities, the majority of the session consists of a 60-75min guided visualization*, focusing on solutions focused thinking, reframing past situations differently and setting your own self-belief levels.
