Hypnotherapy is a form of deep relaxation that helps you receive and respond to updated and reprogrammed suggestions that can inspire the positive outcomes you desire. The more absorbed and focused you are in a relaxed state, the more suggestible your mind is to releasing old blocks and receiving new healthy living suggestions.
Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a system of working with the language of your mind and how it impacts your feelings, emotions and beliefs. By working with the patterns, belief systems, and ideas your brain uses to store and retrieve information and carry out the functions of your body, NLP is able to quickly help you change this programming and achieve your goals easily and effortlessly.

Sheila Granger's Virtual Gastric Band Program uses hypnosis to condition the sub-conscious mind into believing that a band has been placed around the top portion of the stomach in order to create a small stomach pouch thus reducing the amount of food that one needs to eat in order to feel satisfied.
Hypnosis can easily be described as 'being open to suggestion'. In a deeply relaxed state the subconscious mind is best able to respond positively and creatively to imagery and suggestions. When hypnotised your subconscious mind can focus on the things you wish to change and on the ways you can best do so, free from critical and anxious thoughts of your conscious mind.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a form of counselling and coaching that explores the link between our thoughts and our behaviours. By changing our thoughts we can change our behaviours to help reach our goals or change our lives. NLP is able to change thought-patterns and beliefs which are hidden in your subconscious and which affect the way you approach your daily life.

I recently completed a round of sessions with Amanda and found they have had a profound affect on my well-being and happiness levels. I now feel a sense of calm in my everyday life and feel armed with the tools to further enhance each and every day. I would not hesitate recommending Amanda, she makes you feel instantly at ease and is skilled at finding the source behind long held habits.
Also, her energy and zest for life is infectious!

Amanda is truly amazing at what she does, each session is definitely tailored to the individual.
Amanda is great at finding out what is going on with you at that current time and working with that.
Each session has been different but with the same core meaning.
I listen to the recordings almost daily and they bring so much to my life, from peace to acceptance to realisation and joy.
I highly recommend 🙏⭐🌻

When you’re ready to make hard, important changes in your life contact Amanda and Julie at Bayside Healthy Living, I’m very glad I did. Hypnosis can make the hard so much easier, when it is done with someone like Amanda. She is not just trained well in hypnosis but has a lot of experience; and I was amazed at the amount of support she offers,… continually. The environment is warm, she always ensures you feel safe and in control....aand her continuing support and contact really sets her apart. The help of Julie in the office is also exemplary. The whole experience was very caring

I have known Amanda as a colleague, a therapist and a friend for nearly 8 years and I value her professionalism and kindness and generosity. Amanda is a very skilled therapist and always comes from a heartfelt kind space. Working with her is always a positive experience and the environment she works in a very safe space where desired changes can be realised. I would highly recommend her services.

Amanda and I studied together and have since worked alongside one another in peer supervision for the last 8 years. I am always amazed at not just Amanda’s enthusiasm for the work that she does, but also the diligence and attention to detail that she pays. You can tell that she really cares about the outcomes that she helps her clients to achieve. I would have no hesitation in recommending her services

The best around! I have been to see Amanda several times for hypnotherapy after seeing other hypnotherapists. Amanda is the best I've seen. I love how she can provide all the research behind what she does and provides a non-judgmental open-minded safe space. Her techniques are fantastic and have worked really well for me. I can't recommend her highly enough!

I found Amanda by fortunate chance,
Her sessions have helped me hugely advance
In letting old experiences and traumas go -
And releasing the negatives to let positives grow.

Who can help us all to reach our goals.
She has a vast skill set and a soothing voice -

There are so many areas hypnotherapy can address,
There’s nothing to lose - so put it to the test!

I was referred to Amanda through a friend of mine who spoke so highly of her and it is safe to say that seeing Amanda completely changed my 2020 for the better. It was the highlight of my year and the best thing I ever did. I am such a happier, lighter and more healthier person since seeing Amanda and my outlook on life has completely changed. She is so calming and positive and her techniques are so unique and has helped me so much. I am so grateful to Amanda and how much she has helped me through some tough times.

I found Amanda by complete chance and I am so grateful that out of all the hypnotherapists in Melbourne I called Bayside Healthy Living. My mindset and outlook on life has changed drastically since the beginning of my sessions with Amanda, she is so wise and inquisitive I felt so comfortable even from our first conversation on the phone. She cares deeply for her clients and will go above and beyond to help in anyway she can. I cannot go a day now where I don't listen to a recording because it grounds me and makes the start and the end of my days so much clearer and lighter. Amanda has changed my

My response to the hypnotherapy sessions I had with Amanda had an immediate and very positive effect on me. Although I had very specific reasons for wanting to see Amanda, I have been able to apply her techniques to other aspects of my life, leaving me with a much more positive and enlightened outlook in general.
My sessions with Amanda were conducted online via Zoom due to the COVID-19 stage 3 restrictions. Given how well I responded to Amanda's treatment, I believe this in no way hindered the process. The sessions ran seamlessly and I honestly felt like Amanda was in the room with me the whole

Amanda is totally fabulous, an expert at her craft and the ultimate professional. I have discovered through Bayside Healthy Living that Hypnotherapy is very powerful and healing. Amanda has a lovely presence about her, you feel instantly comfortable and at ease with her. We adressed my conscious issues but also so much more. It was so easy to open up and by the end of my program I felt lighter, happier and generally well balanced. I am now on track with my goals, and I am living as my true self thanks to Amandas work.

Amanda is simply phenomenal. She is kind, caring and just a divine human. From the moment you walk inside, you feel comfortable and a sense of calm. Her kindness is genuine. I don’t just consider Amanda as someone who is helping me through a bloody hard time in my life, but I consider her to be a friend and mentor. She goes above and beyond and I can’t recommend her enough. Forever grateful. xxooo

As a cancer support nurse in a small organisation, it is critical for me to be able to manage my own well-being, in order to balance the emotional demands of my role and the impact that this type of work can have personally. Amanda has the unique blend of experience and skills to understand and address these issues, helping me identify what I need to do to make sure I stay emotionally fresh and present for my patients, and maintaining my own equilibrium.
