Despite an epidemic in mental distress, research has shown that men are much less likely than women to be diagnosed with mental health problems such as depression and anxiety.
Many men feel that mental health issues are seen as a weakness and, as a result, are reluctant to talk about their problems, go to their doctor, or ask for help. They are also more likely to use alcohol or other substances to help them cope with their problems.
In the UK, approximately three-quarters of people who die by suicide are men.
The Men’s Mental Health Symposium was held in memory of our dear friend David O'Neill. The event had a significant impact and explored the barriers to men accessing support, what this means for men in crisis, and how best to support them.

Men’s Mental Health Symposium FAQs
Who would benefit from this symposium?
The aim of bringing together experts in men’s mental health at this event was to identify the barriers preventing men from seeking help, how we can all support that process, and the dangers if we don’t.
The live event was attended mainly by RTTⓇ students and graduates, but it was always intended to be suitable for anyone interested in being part of the solution.
Purchasing the recordings also gives access to a bonus hypnosis audio from world-renowned therapist and author Marisa Peer. The audio’s purpose is to empower men to seek support when they need it.
Are the topics upsetting?
The recordings contain open and honest descriptions of problems with addiction and depression. There is also a section on suicide and an emotional presentation by a bereaved mother whose son took his own life. However, the event’s overall theme was about finding solutions, and there is a clear message of hope running through all the presentations.
How can I get more support?
The recordings are accompanied by a brochure that includes information about the speakers, international helplines, and how to access resources.

What Happens When You Use Your Hypnosis Audio?
As you relax during your hypnosis audio, you access the subconscious part of your mind. The critical, conscious part of your mind then shuts down to let in positive suggestions and bring in new ideas you never thought possible.
Many people think that hypnosis sends you to sleep; in fact, it does quite the opposite—it wakes up and stirs your mind. Your hypnosis audio then fires up, wires, and codes in new, powerful, and positive beliefs to change habits and behaviors for good. Your mind is also more accepting and receptive to change when under hypnosis, which means that you’re more likely to see better results and a significant transformation.
Your mind is so powerful, and you have more control than you think. Therefore, what you focus on throughout listening to your audio, expands. Your hypnosis creates a clear picture of precisely what you want so that you naturally move toward it.
Marisa also uses her special technique of combining powerful, dynamic and compelling language to create a stronger imprint. Just like a computer, when you use your hypnotic audio, you are installing new software to create the best version of you.
How to Make Your Hypnosis Audio Work for You
You have to want the change to happen for your hypnosis to be effective and transformational. Therefore, the more you want it, the more it will happen, as you expand as you move toward it.
People can start to experience results within the first 21 days, so make sure you listen to the audio every day for it to have the maximum effect.
Our minds learn by repetition, so when you repeatedly listen to your download over 21 days, you will notice much better results. For example, if we want a healthy, fit body, we don’t expect to get results immediately after one day’s training at the gym. Your mind is the same—you reprogram it as if it is at the gym, installing your new behavior into your subconscious properly.
During your hypnosis audio, your mind also becomes excited and receptive to change, which means your mind is more able to easily accept new habits.
Is Self-hypnosis Safe?
Self-hypnosis is entirely natural and safe. If you’ve ever found yourself driving your car on autopilot or in a trance-like state when you’ve been watching TV, you’ve gone into a state of hypnosis.
Marisa’s self-hypnosis audios, programs, courses and meditations have been designed and recorded by her personally to install new, powerful, positive beliefs on the subject matter you have chosen.
You will always be in control when you use your audio, and you will simply relax into a state of heightened control. The more you practice using your hypnosis audio, the more you will be able to not only eradicate fears and blocks, but also adopt, acquire and own the exact habits and behaviors you want in your life.
