Hazel Gale: Taming your mind monster

Jun 14, 2020, 11:15 AM

Depression, anxiety, stress and self-doubt – these are just some of your mind’s monsters.

It’s something Hazel Gale is all too familiar with, having been plagued by her doubting voice during her boxing and kickboxing career.

The voice is one thing, but it’s the impact it has on the rest of the body that proved to be her undoing.

Hazel was petrified of looking weak and that fear took over. It resulted in overtraining, chronic fatigue, stress and depression.

Eventually boxing ‘broke her’.

Today, Hazel is a cognitive hypnotherapist having discovered the form of therapy when she was at her lowest. She’s also the author of the book The Mind Monster Solution: How to overcome self-sabotage & reclaim your life.

She’s now in a position to help others tame their own mind monsters, but it’s been a long road to get to this position.
