explores the repeated emotional and nervous system patterns many people feel trapped inside.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The final book, &#8216;The Version of You&#8217;, which will be released in September, focuses on identity, emotional change and becoming more confident moving forward.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  <img   width=\"100%\" alt=\"Book cover 3\"\/>The last book in the series is due to be published in September (Image: Alan Currie)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  He added: &#8220;What I hope people take away from the books is understanding, reassurance and hope.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  &#8220;I wanted the books to feel human, honest and emotionally real rather than overly clinical or full of jargon.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  &#8220;I think this discussion is more important now than ever because modern life has normalised emotional overwhelm for so many people.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  &#8220;People are under constant pressure, mental noise and emotional stress, yet many still feel misunderstood or alone in what they\u2019re experiencing.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  &#8220;The books were written for the people quietly holding themselves together while feeling overwhelmed inside.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The books are available as an eBook (\u00a32.99) and paperback, with signed copies available directly from the author.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  For more information, people are encouraged to email modernhypnosisbyalan@gmail.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alan Currie is drawing on years of experience working with people across South Ayrshire who live with anxiety,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":694845,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[49,48,84,393,394],"class_list":["post-694844","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mental-health","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-health","tag-mental-health","tag-mentalhealth"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/694844","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=694844"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/694844\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/694845"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=694844"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=694844"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=694844"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
