One of the many reasons that I think I was so powerfully drawn to the kind of work that I do as a hypnotherapist is my interest in – or should I say passion for – metaphor.
Over the years, I have researched conceptual metaphor theory extensively and used it consciously and subconsciously in my own writing. I am fascinated by the way that we all use metaphor, every single day of our lives, to describe our experiences.
We have spatial metaphors: I feel so down today.
We have metaphors that suggest that we experience our body as a sort of container for our emotions: I was seething with anger. I thought I might explode.
