Built around your travel pattern
Your session is generated from your own consultation. We ask which direction you travel, how often, what your typical jet-lag signature is. Built around your specifics.
Jet lag is the misalignment between the body's intrinsic circadian rhythm and the new local clock after rapid time-zone travel. Eastward travel is reliably harder than westward — the body shortens its day with more difficulty than it lengthens it.
The circadian rhythm — the body's intrinsic 24-hour clock — runs slightly longer than 24 hours and is anchored daily by light exposure, particularly morning sunlight. Rapid travel across time zones leaves the rhythm in one time zone while the body is in another. The result is jet lag: sleep onset difficulty, daytime fatigue, cognitive fog, mood disruption, gastrointestinal upset. Eastward travel (shortening the day) is consistently harder than westward (lengthening it), because the body adapts more readily to a longer day than a shorter one.
Standard advice — light exposure timing, melatonin, hydration, gradual schedule shifts — genuinely helps. But the body still resists the new schedule. The work that lasts supports the autonomic state required for sleep at the wrong biological time and alertness when the body wants sleep.
Flying east, sleep onset impossible at the new bedtime, waking before dawn. The harder direction.
Flying west, falling asleep too early, waking in the middle of the night wide awake.
London-NY-London inside a week. The body never realigning, just absorbing the cost.
Crossing 8+ zones. The system genuinely lost, with cognitive fog lasting days.
Falling asleep at 2pm local time despite all advice. The system overriding the schedule.
Coming back often hits harder than going out. Compounded with the work-resumption activation.
Standard jet-lag advice is environmental — light, melatonin, schedule. All useful. But the body still resists wrong-time sleep, particularly going east. Lying in a hotel bed at midnight local while the body says 5pm is an autonomic problem, not a behavioural one.
Hypnotherapy works on the state of arrival at sleep regardless of clock time. The session offers the body a route into descent that the misalignment otherwise blocks, supporting the new schedule taking hold. Used alongside morning light exposure and strategic melatonin, it can shorten the recalibration window. The American Psychological Association recognises hypnotherapy as an evidence-based psychological approach.
Most jet-lag advice is environmental checklists. The session works on the autonomic state needed for the wrong-time sleep recalibration requires.

The session works on parasympathetic descent regardless of clock time. Sleep can settle in any time zone if the entry state is right.
Three short voice recordings during the consultation are analysed for emotional tone. Travel-stress signature shows in voice; the session is calibrated accordingly.
Every Hypnotrack pathway is built on clinical frameworks from a qualified hypnotherapist — registered, National Hypnotherapy Society (HYP16-03742).
The Sleep & Recovery pathway is designed for the specific shapes jet lag takes. Some may sound familiar.
The hardest direction. The session targets the descent at the wrong biological time.
Wide awake at 3am local. The session offers a route back into sleep.
Compressed schedules with no time to recover. The session supports the recalibration that the trip demands.
Long-haul across many zones. The session anchors the body to the new schedule.
Travelling in already-activated state. The session settles the system before the flight.
Often worse than going out. The session supports re-entry into home rhythm.
Your session is around 15 minutes of personalised hypnotherapy audio. It opens with breath and grounding work — the autonomic descent that supports sleep in any time zone.
It moves into recognition of your specific jet-lag pattern. New patterns are introduced: settled wrong-time sleep, the body accepting the new clock, recalibration as a process the system can move through. Future-pacing — what arrivals and returns feel like with the recovery shortened. Yours forever, designed for use on flights, in hotels and on return home.
Built from your own consultation — your specific travel pattern, your own language, the version of you who recalibrates faster.
We won't promise zero jet lag. The physiology takes roughly a day per hour shifted, and no session can override that. The session supports the autonomic state required for wrong-time sleep and can shorten the recovery, but cannot eliminate it. Light exposure timing remains the most powerful tool.
If you travel very frequently and sleep difficulty has become chronic, please see your GP. Frequent long-haul travel is associated with documented health costs. NHS sleep guidance.
Variable. Standard recovery is roughly a day per hour shifted, often shortened by 30-50% with the session, well-timed light exposure and strategic melatonin.
Yes — many people use it during the flight to support sleep in the air and arrival-state settling. Headphones, recline, eye mask all help.
Both. Eastward travel is consistently harder, so the session may take longer to produce the same effect going east as going west.
Yes — they work well together. Melatonin shifts the clock; the session supports the autonomic state for sleep at the new time. Coordinate dosing with your GP if it's a new addition.
The session can help, but consider whether the travel pattern itself is sustainable. Chronic jet lag is associated with documented health costs and warrants medical conversation.
