"I want to thank you again for the help you gave me a few years ago now. You were just lovely and kept me going when I felt I'd never recover from the fatigue. Fast forward a few years and I have been working since, I got my dog 2.5 years ago a wolf type husky who I take for walks every day and I have been antidepressant free for 12 months.
Thank you so so much for the work you do Anne, you are a legend".

Before, I used to wonder how people could make big decisions with such apparent confidence. I ended up accepting this as a reality (for them), but now I feel I can do this too.

From the consulting rooms of Anne Cheshire SEP®, MNIMH, therapist and trainer in deep nervous system re-regulation
"Becoming truly empowered is a wonderful journey. Knowing how to get our unconscious brains fully on side is crucial to us feeling safe, happy, and motivated in life".
If our emotions are holding us back, it's because our unconscious survival brain is desperate to keep us safe, and prevent us from doing anything that might be new or challenging. This is not your fault, it's your survival brain doing what it is supposed to do. What it thinks is new, challenging, or even dangerous, is determined by previous experiences, often from childhood. It is afraid that it all may happen again. And it is something that we can change.
Here are some of the signs that our unconscious brain is sabotaging us, just because it is trying to keep us safe, in a well-meaning but misguided way. You may be able to relate to some of these:
-
I feel as if I am living up to someone else's idea of life, rather than living my own life
-
If I look deep down inside, I'm not sure who I am, or what I want
-
I can't make decisions any more
-
If I ever make a decision, I can't carry it out, or I change my mind immediately
-
I feel lost, not sure which direction to take
-
I don't know what's right for me
-
I'm afraid of making a big mistake
-
I'm about to enter (or exit!) a relationship, and I'm not sure whether this is the right (wrong) person for me
-
I'm afraid of making changes, it seems safer to stay where I am
-
I feel totally stuck
-
I know I can achieve much more in my career or in business, but I don't seem to be able to go up a gear
-
I don't know whether I need a new job or a total change in career. Or should I just stay where I am because it's safer that way?
-
I'm trying to start a business, but I can't get it together
-
I procrastinate
-
I think I might be self-sabotaging
-
Everything has to be perfect before I take action, but my idea of "perfect" changes all the time
-
I doubt myself all the time
-
I'm constantly second guessing myself
-
I've lost my 'gut instinct'
-
I numb out on netflix or social media to avoid feeling so stuck
-
There always seems to be something stopping me from knowing what I want, and doing what I want to do
-
I feel guilty about not making the best of my life, but I don't know where to start
Having your unconscious (survival) brain delighting in your one great life is the difference between battling anxiety, uncertainty, and failure, and living your life with the certainty and self-assuredness to smash your goals.
It's going from feeling lost, stuck, or just 'not right', to knowing deep down inside, what the right thing is for your life, right now, and being able to take the right action to achieve it.
I want to live a great life. How do I make the decisions that are right for me?
Where we end up in life is based on the decisions we make, and how we carry out those decisions. A decision which is going to affect our whole life is not easy to make. It can mean investing endless time, money, and effort, constantly making comparisons, and looping the options around and around, and back and forth in our heads, until we confuse ourselves totally.
You could spend thousands on a consultant or a therapist...
...and then find that although you know rationally the right thing to do, you don't seem to be able to carry it out.
Something's not right and some part of you is still resisting. You find you still have to deal with uncertainty, relationships, boundaries, and feeling unsafe. It's as if nothing has changed.
You see all these people around you, doing amazing things with their lives, and you want that, too.
You desperately want certainty about what you really want in life, but you're never sure. How do you know what's right for you? Or, you are sure about your purpose, but you always seem to sabotage yourself. You procrastinate. You are crippled by perfectionism, or you just numb out with netflix and social media. It's time to live your one great life.
You and I know: having a vague idea, even if it is a good one, is not enough.
You and the ones you care about deserve more than shiny-looking ideas. You deserve to know exactly what you want, deep down inside, and be completely aligned in achieving it. You deserve to be so self-assured, and clear about your vision, that you don't stand in your own way or waste any more time, when it comes to living the life that is right for you.
Knowing deep down the right thing to do for you, making great decisions, and actually carrying them out...
You could never pull that off, right?
I'm here today, to tell you that you are, happily,
Wrong!
You can discover what it feels like to make exactly the right decisions for your life, with deep-down certainty, without drama, procrastination or self-sabotage.
Then experience carrying out those decisions with inner confidence and excitement, because you know, without a doubt, that what you have decided is right for you
And it doesn't take therapy, a fortune, or forever.
How do I know this?
I have seen hundreds of my clients take the steps they need to connect deeply with their sense of self, get their survival brain onside, find their direction in life, and make the right decisions!
And I've adapted, refined and distilled all that experience into my Mastermind programme, which you can experience yourself!
Of course, you can't and shouldn't do this on your own.
My entire Mastermind programme has built-in full support and gentle accountability at every level. Whenever you need it, to keep you going, cheer you on, hold your hand through difficult times, and answer all the questions as they come up, I'll be there.
Whether you choose to go on this journey alongside others, take advantage of the included 45 minute group coaching calls, and cheer each other on in our mastermind community, or do it in your own way, in your own time, I'm there to help you.

"I’ve worked on a one to one basis with Anne since 2016. Her sessions have seen invaluable and lifesaving.
When I found out she was launching the programme Making Great Life Decisions [the initial Your One Great Life mastermind] this sounded exactly what I required. The course was more than I could have ever imagined. So organised and considered. Taking you gently through various sections. Weekly zoom chats felt like she was holding your hand and the one-to-ones really helped iron out any uncertainties.
I’ve done a lot of other therapy over the years, but never one as successful as this. It actually worked. For the first time ever, I connected with my sense of self, and learned how to move on with my life in a positive way, at a slow pace that suited me.
She’s truly an inspirational teacher and I owe her my life. This course is exceptionally good value for money and it’s an online resource that you can always go back on and revisit, which is so reassuring".
Tim
I feel much more confident about making significant life decisions having nearly completed the programme. It has helped me to strengthen my sense of self – or uncover it - and define my goals more clearly and given me more confidence to pursue them.
Before, I used to wonder how people could make big decisions with such apparent confidence. I ended up accepting this as a reality (just for them), but now I feel I can do this too.
Hello! I'm Anne Cheshire
I'm Anne Cheshire, SEP, MNIMH, here in the beautiful city of Edinburgh. I'm a practising trauma therapist and trainer, trained in brain centred trauma therapy, nervous system regulation, and somatic experiencing®. I'm also a business woman and was running my first business (exercise studios) age 22 in 1980, straight after graduating in Philosophy from Sussex University.
My passion in life is to help people use the power of their own brains, rational and unconscious (survival and emotional), to connect with their sense of self and create and live their one great life which is vision-led, satisfying, and totally aligned with who they are, deep down inside.
I'm a mum, a gran, a published author, I've owned exercise studios (I still teach barre!), and an art gallery. But what really sets me alight is seeing people connect with who they really are inside, and overcome their survival brain's (unhelpful) experiences, so they can create and live the happy, purposeful life they actually want.
I have been a trauma therapist and trainer for over fifteen years now, as director of the Trauma Recovery Clinic, and I've worked with thousands of clients and patients in one-to-one therapy, seeing them reconnect with themselves, feel safe, and empower their lives.
What I have found is that it's not just about knowing rationally what to do in life, but about enabling the unconscious brain to be totally aligned with the rational brain's desires and aspirations, and that's what I'm here to do with you.
Getting those two parts of the brain on the same page is not easy, even with years of conventional 'talking therapy'. You see, the unconscious brain runs the show, but it does not understand words!
But rooted in in-depth training and clinical experience in my field of expertise, my system helps anyone with an unconscious part of the brain (that's you and me!) connect with their sense of self, overcome resistance, find their purpose in life, and make really great life decisions.
Throughout this mastermind programme we do the important things that will bring success in the shortest amount of time. That includes discovering exactly how to navigate relationships, strengthen and maintain boundaries, manage moods, and feel calm and confident, even when dealing with our world's uncertainty. I show you how to do it step by step, with simple, easy actions. I've been on that journey myself, and I'm here to be with you on your's.
Three things make Anne's mastermind a unique experience
You change unconscious reaction patterns for the better.
Anne Cheshire's mastermind experience is based on genuine trauma recovery; it's not just 'trauma-informed'. That means you get to change any unconscious reaction patterns you want, including those your brain made when in survival mode. You get the full lowdown on how to handle unhelpful reactive emotions, and install, step by step, those which help you thrive, in your private life, in business and in your career.
It's fully based on neuroscience and nervous system regulation, which means it will work for you.
It connects you with who you really are, deep down inside.
There's nothing like being rooted in a secure, strong sense of self, which is validated by ourselves and others. It's essential for knowing what we want, and makes us feel whole and valued. Having a strong sense of self is the foundation of every successful life, relationship, business, or career decision, and without it, any decision or pathway will feel hollow, meaningless, doubtful, or unsafe,
You become more and more you, and keep that vital connection with yourself, friends, family and loved ones.
It brings your unconscious and your rational mind into alignment.
No more need for procrastination or self-sabotage by the unconscious brain out of fear. You uncover the secret of how to make your unconscious brain feel genuinely safe and secure, even after adverse experiences. When it is safe, it fully supports the rational brain, bringing motivation, rather than undermining your decisions and overwhelming you emotionally.
Happy alignment between rational and unconscious brain modes is vital for making decisions and taking action.
Anne: "To me, having a strong, sense of purpose, making powerful life decisions, which are absolutely right for me, and carrying them out, is crucial for happiness.
Discover in this Mastermind programme who you are, and what you really want, then make deeply motivated decisions, and carry them out with full confidence".
What's inside the "Your One Great Life" mastermind programme?
I'm a trauma therapist, so what I do is based on neuroscience and compassion. I'm lighting up some crucial neurological connections in a fully supported, fool-proof, step-by-step 9-month masterclass series (with a powerful, repeatable technique bundle). This is specifically for those who yearn to take charge of their one great life, and create experiences and successes, which are absolutely right for them, again and again.

- Live support one: membership of the dedicated private FaceBook community for participants of the programme.

You keep on track by logging your progress on the specially designed workbook, every step of the way, so you don't lose anything. You sustain momentum with small, regular wins, increasing motivation, and showing you that you are going in the right direction.
The core Signature mastermind programme includes real, live, human support: I'll be with you every step of the way, and we make doubly sure that you are not left out on your own doing this! There are two (belt and braces!) ways we ensure you have actual, real, live, human support. This is for everyone in the mastermind, whether signature, premier, or VIP:
- Community: at the moment we are using a Facebook group for programme participants. I hang out there, answer questions and cheerlead. It's for celebrating your wins and encouraging each other. It's a bit like a daily get-together.
- Fortnightly online training and live Q and A sessions. Each session I'll take you through one of the modules, live. This is where you can jump online and have your questions answered by me, in real time, and where we will be going over any steps where you want support, clarification, or to dive in more deeply. Every two weeks, you can even do a mini-coaching with me then and there and I'll hold your hand as you complete the step! Email me any questions you have beforehand and I'll do my best to answer them then.
- The training part of the sessions will be recorded and added to your programme so you can access it if you can't make the session live. The individual Q and As and coachings are not recorded.
The Premier Mastermind Programme features everything in the core Signature Programme, and includes in addition
- Four (4) one-to-one coaching sessions with me. These 50-minute sessions are to make sure that you are starting the programme in the best way for you, to make sure that your sense of self is growing strong, and to help with any issues that need one-to-one clarification. You can schedule these with me to take place at any time during the first 90 days.
The VIP Mastermind Programme is an intensive immersion programme, for those who wish to invest at least an hour a day and see clarity and transformation in the quickest time possible. It includes everything in the core Signature Programme, and additionally
- Twelve (12) one-to-one weekly coaching sessions with me. These are scheduled weekly to take you through the programme with full one-to-one support. Be prepared to invest significant time in clarifying and embedding new healthy brain patterns in this super-quick intensive edition!

Jasmine
The Making great life decisions course [the original version of the Your One Great Life mastermind programme] has defined and strengthened my sense of self, in a way I never thought possible.
The course takes you through a process - defining values, qualities, abilities and skills. The modules are practical and manageable, allowing you to go at your own pace.
The group sessions are brilliant for asking questions, gaining support, insights and community with others.
Anne is experienced, knowledgeable and passionate. She always has practical (if unorthodox!) methods and a way forward whatever your situation.
She is also warm, enthusiastic and fun to work with.
I now have a strong sense of self, a plan and direction for my life.
I am so grateful for Anne and this course- I couldn’t recommend it more highly.
