  • Session 0048 - Anne Hogarth, Audiologist & Tinnitus Therapist, Hypnotherapist
    Jul 29 2025

    Correction: I, Aidan Noone, said in the podcast to "unthaw the freeze" of course I should have said to, "thaw the freeze" - my apologies for the error.

    Here are some practical insights and approaches to reducing tinnitus, as shared by Anne Hogarth—a seasoned audiologist, CBT practitioner, and hypnotherapist:

    Key Approaches to Reducing Tinnitus

    1. Addressing the Brain, Not Just the Ears:
    Tinnitus is generated in the brain, not the ears. Even if the auditory nerve is cut, the tinnitus persists. This means that focusing on how your brain processes the sound is vital.

    2. Managing the Stress Response: Tinnitus often puts your body in a heightened state of alertness (the “fight, flight or freeze” response). Reducing anxiety and stress can significantly impact how you experience tinnitus.

    3. Hypnotherapy & CBT:
    Research and Anne’s clinical experience show that hypnotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) are the most effective interventions. These therapies help your brain reclassify the tinnitus sound as less threatening, making it easier to ignore and less distressing.

    4. “Filing Away” the Sound:
    The brain struggles with tinnitus because it can’t cross-reference this sound with anything known or safe. Hypnotherapy helps you connect the sound with positive or neutral experiences, allowing your brain to “file it away” instead of treating it as a constant alert.

    5. Mindfulness and Relaxation:
    Practicing mindfulness and deep relaxation helps calm the sympathetic nervous system. Simple activities like focusing on your breath, physical sensations (like the feel of an object), or using guided visualizations can help shift your attention away from tinnitus.

    6. Don’t Sit in Silence:
    Anne cautions not to stay in quiet environments, as this can make the tinnitus more prominent. Background sounds like gentle music, nature sounds, or even “Zen music” (fractal tones designed for focus and relaxation) can help mask the tinnitus and make it less noticeable.

    7. Use Tinnitus as a Signal to Relax:
    When you notice your tinnitus, use it as a cue to take a moment for relaxation. This reframing shifts the focus from fighting the sound to using it as a reminder for self-care.

    8. Seek Professional Support:
    If tinnitus is affecting your quality of life, Anne recommends seeing a trained tinnitus therapist—ideally someone qualified in hypnotherapy and/or CBT. You can look for therapists via professional organizations like the European Association of Professional Hypnotherapists (EAPH).

    Quick Tips for Daily Life

    - Avoid total silence—keep gentle background noise on.
    - Practice mindfulness—engage your senses in positive, grounding activities.
    - Challenge negative thoughts—CBT techniques can reduce distress.
    - Focus on enjoyable activities—tinnitus often fades into the background when you’re engaged and happy.

  • Session 0045 - Professor Ivor Browne on Psychotherapy
    Jan 21 2025


    Professor Ivor Browne is a distinguished figure in the world of psychiatry and psychotherapy. Known for his critical examination of conventional medical approaches, Browne has always emphasized that real change comes from within the individual. He argues that the idea of "treating" someone to change them is a profound misunderstanding in the field of medicine.

    Rather, his philosophy hinges on providing support to people as they initiate their own change, a perspective influenced by his observations of therapies like insulin coma therapy.
    Professor Browne noted that the perceived effectiveness of such treatments often stemmed from the creation of supportive group environments rather than the medical intervention itself. His insights underline the importance of social connections and personal agency in the therapeutic process.
