Hypnotherapy for Dieting & Weight Loss

Hypnotherapy can help you overcome a range of weight issues, with longer term success than most other dieting / weighloss techniques.

The following are examples of some of the benefits clients gain from hypnotherapy for weight and eating issues -

Moderate the desire to overeat

Form a positive self image

Produces stronger feelings of strength and determination

Many people feel that overweight people are greedy or have no willpower. Being overweight is usually a far more complicated issue than that.

There are often psychological problems associated with being overweight - including depression, lack of confidence and low self esteem. Often the deeply rooted issues that cause people to over eat stem from being over weight in the first place - so it can be a vicious circle that needs to be broken. Most psychological problems are therefore resolved naturally once the weight has been lost. Losing weight can be a win - win life changing event.

Dieting in the UK is big business. There are many dieting books, exercise videos, food products, weight loss drugs and dieting plans / clubs etc. The trouble is that they all rely on willpower, which is why they are difficult and often fail!

Hypnotherapy provides a different and easier route to weight loss. It can change the way your mind works and change your behaviour. You can lose weight and have more self esteem than ever before.

A common misconception surrounding weight loss is that you need a lot of willpower to succeed. Generally if someone succeeds in losing weight using willpower alone, as soon as the weight is lost, they resume their old eating patterns and re-gain all the lost weight. Another common occurrence when using willpower alone is that as soon as other matters occupy the mind, or the main goal is removed i.e. slimming for a special event, or an unexpected crisis arises, people have a tendency to slip back into their old habits. Most dieting techniques are therefore a real struggle! Something more long lasting than willpower is needed to enable you to stick to a new healthy eating and exercise regime.

Hypnotherapy bypasses willpower and changes the way the subconscious mind thinks. This allows healthy eating to become effortless, and is especially effective if self hypnosis is practised alongside professional clinical hypnotherapy. This works by utilising the same psychological principles you employ when mastering a new skill. If you are not able to imagine that you are going to be successful, then you are defeated before you begin. This is what happens when people undertake diets having previously failed many times before. No amount of willpower can surmount this feeling of defeatism.

Successful people have to be able to visualise themselves as a success long before it becomes a reality. Any successful person achieves their goals by overcoming issues which defeat those people who are less motivated.

Hypnosis is used to create a positive self image. Once a proper self image is generated people find they have the conviction to easily stick to a healthy eating and exercise plan. Therefore, the outcome of hypnotherapy for weight control is changing people's psychological mood.

Occasionally weight issues are caused by a specific past event, uncovering this can help and it is an example of how specific tailored hypnotherapy can help rather than general self hypnosis.
