Advanced Diploma in Nutritional Medicine
During this Diploma Skye learnt about crucial digestive functions that are interrupted by emotional eating and how dieting leads to bodies struggling with attaining and maintaining homeostasis (homeostatis is when blood pressure, glucose levels and mineral concentrations are within the body’s preferred range).
This is something that deeply influenced her when creating The Leading Mind. The more time our bodies spend out of homeostasis, the more the body struggles to get back to a healthy and normal state. This leaves the body and the mind tired, hungry, and stressed. From this we can see why a healthy relationship with food is the most significant way we can influence our physical health.

Hypnosis Certification Training (American Hypnosis Association accredited)
During these studies, Skye learnt about how Hypnotherapy can speak directly to the subconscious mind of a person. The subconscious knows why the person is engaging in unwanted behaviours, and can bring the person’s subconscious mind’s priorities in line with their conscious mind.
Skye applied this knowledge to The Leading Mind to help people to break out of their emotional attachment to over-eating or to certain types of food. Often people struggling with this feel as though they’re ‘self-sabotaging’ or able to maintain a healthy lifestyle but only for short periods of time. Hypnotherapy helps to break this cycle and bring a person’s priorities to the forefront of their mind with focus and clarity.

Masters of Counselling
Currently studying the Masters of Counselling, Skye is specialising in applied constructivist theory which helps people to better understand how their experiences and self-talk has formed their current reality. Skye also learnt about Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy which is an approach to psychotherapy using CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) methods alongside mindfulness practices.
Skye uses Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) in The Leading Mind which helps people better understand and manage their thoughts and emotions in order to achieve relief from compulsive behaviours and promote positive thoughts and meaningful behaviour change.
