This is a self-help hypnotherapy recording for children of about 6-9 years. It has been created to help children overcome the problem of bedwetting and enjoy waking up to a dry bed. It uses the idea of locking up the bladder with a large, strong, and colourful key and standing a sentry outside. Suggestions are given for signals from the bladder to be sent (via the sentry) to the brain to wake the child to visit the toilet if necessary, or to keep those muscles tightly closed till morning. It also contains suggestions to increase self esteem. The more often it is listened to, the more the child can begin to take control. Often listening to the recording is enough, but if the problem should persist, a face-to-face session can be very beneficial. Lynda's gentle, well-modulated, English voice calms, re-assures and encourages as they listen.

This is a self-help hypnotherapy recording for children of about 6-9 years. It is designed to help children relax and let go of worries and anxieties using calming imagery inspired by air balloons. The more they listen, the more they are able to get things back into proportion, allowing them to feel calm and in control. Lynda uses the power of the child's imagination through the use of relaxation, metaphorical stories and fantasies in which the child is encouraged to mentally act out positive solutions to a problem. The best time to listen is usually as the child relaxes before going to sleep. Listening to the recording should be additional to, and not in place of, any normal bedtime reading or listening. Lynda's gentle, well-modulated, English voice calms, re-assures and encourages as they listen.

In this recording, Lynda uses the power of the child's imagination and takes them on an interactive fantastical journey on a flying hammock to a special 'better and better' pool where they can play in the water and leave their old thumb-sucking habit behind.
