Experiencing Joy and Bliss - A Creative Visualisation What if joy and bliss weren’t things you had to chase… What if they were already inside you, waiting to be remembered?

If You Thought This Was Bad Including deep hypnosis If you thought this was bad… it isn’t. And that’s actually good news. In this deeper dive, I’m talking honestly about what happens when life feels overwhelming, when things get pushed down instead of talked through, and why “suck it up, buttercup” is one of the biggest myths we’ve ever been sold in personal development. This episode is about not being broken, even when you feel like you are. It’s about understanding that feeling low, anxious, lost, or like a failure is not the end — it’s a starting point. A platform to...

Help Me Make a Difference

Hey, it’s Paul here, and this episode is a little different.

I want to ask for your help — because I really want to make a difference.

For years I’ve been putting out two episodes a week — a Five-Minute Quickie and a longer one — and to be honest, it’s been tough to keep up. More than that, I’ve realised I want to go deeper. I want to spend more time on the stuff that really matters — the stuff that helps people change for good.

So, from now on, I’ll be doing one episode a week. Sometimes it’ll be a short FMQ to plant a seed, and sometimes a longer one where we dive deep — with hypnosis, NLP, and all the good stuff that helps you change from the inside out.

But here’s the thing… I can’t do it on my own.

We all have our struggles, right? The things we keep bottled up because we don’t want to seem weak, or we don’t know who to talk to. I’ve seen too many people suffer in silence — and I don’t want that to happen anymore.

So I’d love your help.
Tell me what’s really going on for you — or maybe for someone you know. What’s the thing you or they are struggling with? And just as important — how would you like to feel instead?

That’s where the real change begins. When you can imagine what it’s like to feel better, to feel free, confident, peaceful — then we can start making that happen together.

Please share this message https://personaldevelopmentunplugged.com/help-me-make-a-difference/

You can email me (anonymously if you like) at feedback@personaldevelopmentunplugged.com

I’d be so grateful to hear from you.

Let’s make this podcast something that doesn’t just help you — but helps others too. Let’s make it a real community of change.

Thanks for being here, for listening, and for being part of this.

Shine brightly,
Paul

Help me make a difference

Hi, how you doing? I don't think we ask that enough, do we? How are you doing? And mean it. Sometimes I think we have to ask at least three times to the same person. Really? How you doing? Really? How you doing? And what am I talking about? What am I talking about? Well, I'm going to change the format of the Personal Development Unplugged podcast.

 

For the last years and years and years and years and years, I've been cracking out two podcasts a week, five minute quickie and a longer version. And it's taken its toll a little bit because I find it really difficult to fit it all in. And my mind is that there's important things to talk about where we need to go into depth, find processes that really make a difference, approach the difficult subjects.

 

And I think to do that, I'm only going to do a weekly podcast. And one of those will be a seed, a five minute quickie still, but it'll be a seed for a longer podcast so I can get you to think. Think and get ready for something deeper.

 

But the whole point is I want to help people. I want to help people more than I've been doing. And to do that, again, I say we've got to approach these subjects, which are a little bit not taboo, but maybe they're not spoken about quite so much.

 

And I'm noticing it happening a bit more now. You know, guys opening up, being strong and saying they need help. Unfortunately, there's one or two that we've seen in the news that don't.

 

Damn, we miss them. It's too big a shame and we need to do something about it. And that's just not guys.

 

It's everyone. We all have our struggles. And sometimes these struggles can seem so much because they're all inside, aren't they? They're in our bloody head and we seem to think that we have to deal with them by ourselves because it's weak to tell anybody about it.

 

Or find the right person. Or I can't afford to get the therapy I need. I can't even admit I need therapy.

 

And that's no fucking good to anybody. So what I want to do is to get deeper into subjects. Take a little time to get things right.

 

I know. But I want to do deeper subjects with real deep hypnosis to get the unconscious mind to change. Because a lot of these issues that we have, they're in our bloody head.

 

And they're not caused consciously. You think about it consciously. But if you had created it consciously, you would change easily, effortlessly.

 

Just by thinking about it. Because you create things consciously, you change things consciously. But these are at an unconscious level.

 

They're like unconscious behaviours. That limiting belief, those emotions, those negative emotions. And although they're, well I believe they're there to protect us.

 

I just know there's better ways. And it's your unconscious mind needs guiding. It needs help to create change at the unconscious level.

 

Because this is where our issues are created. Something happens to us and our unconscious mind decides to help. Unfortunately, sometimes it doesn't.

 

It creates negative emotions. Has a limiting belief just to keep us safe. But then it carries on.

 

But that's where I'm going to need your help. Because we all have these issues. And I'd like you to, you can do it anonymously.

 

But just email me. Maybe if you want to email me. I'm on Instagram, Facebook, all those bloody places.

 

But email me would be better. And just give me an idea of the type of things that we're struggling with. Maybe a friend of yours who's struggling.

 

And you can just give me an idea of the things that are happening. And more importantly, and this is the thing and the thing what people forget. If we're talking about you or them, how you want to feel instead.

 

How they want to feel instead of having this issue. Because that's the most important thing. If we can just imagine that if everything disappeared.

 

All the issues were to disappear right now. How would I like to be? How would I like to be physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally? What type of beliefs would support me? And if you can pass it on to me, I'd be so indebted to you. So we can really make a difference.

 

And I want to make a difference. I know this small little podcast has made a difference to people. But I want to make a more significant difference to you and your friends.

 

So if that's something you could help with, please do let me know. And I'm sorry that I'm not going to do like two weekly podcasts anymore. But I want to get deeper as I say.

 

You know, some things I don't like the click baits that people are doing. I don't like all this, you know, easy ways to do this and that. We're going to change things and they are going to be easy.

 

But easy doesn't mean it doesn't take effort. It takes effort. It takes discipline.

 

And it takes a will to do whatever it takes. But if you know how you want to feel, then I know you will have that will to do whatever it takes. So let's please make a difference.

 

Please help me make a difference. So take a moment or two, just notice how you want to feel. And if you're not feeling that way, let me know.

 

Let me know what you're feeling and what you're not feeling. And let's start making a difference to you, to me. So I hope you're going to enjoy the things.

 

Please say, give me comments, feedback if we're going into the right directions. You know, there's so many different things we could talk about, but there is so much going on in the world that needs our mental help. Mental health needs support.

 

So let's do that together. Let's change the world together. Be the change you want to see in other people.

 

Show what is possible because it is. It's all possible. I've seen it so many times in the clinic that people coming in feeling so, so down.

 

And in one or two sessions, they change. And they change their lives and they change. And because they change, it's not a do to, it's a do with.

 

We work together. They change and that confidence spreads in so many different areas of their life. The whole life changes.

 

Everyone they know changes around them. Life gets so much better and life can always get a bit better, a little bit more better. So if this is something you feel you could help or help me with, I'd really love your help.

 

But disregarding that, I'm going to do it anyway. I'm just going to do what I can and hopefully you'll see a difference. And again, I always say if you could just share this with somebody, because the more this podcast gets out to just a few more people, a few more, because I'm only interested in hitting the people who need, who want the help, who need the help.

 

It's not about clicks. It's getting real good processes to make or to allow people to change, to guide people to change, get back to driving your bus, become the person you are meant to be and more. There you go.

 

That's this little, little thing that why I'm going to change the podcast. Hope you like it and sending my love to you. Okay.

 

Please enjoy. Warning, you are now leaving the unplugged mind of Paul Clough. It's time to fly and run.

 

Be brave, my friend. Okay. Personal development unplugged.
