When it comes to weight
management, it's essential to
recognise the profound connection
between the mind and body. Your
thoughts, beliefs, and emotions have
a significant impact on your eating
behaviours and overall health.
Before getting into the
science, let's clarify what
hypnotherapy is and what it
isn't. Hypnotherapy is not the
stage hypnosis you may have
seen in entertainment shows,
where people cluck like
chickens or do the moonwalk
on command.
Now, let's talk about the star of
the show – your subconscious
mind. It's like the operating
system running in the
background of your computer,
influencing your decisions,
behaviours, and habits.
Initial Discussion: Your journey begins with an initial discussion
between you and the certified hypnotherapist.
1.
Relaxation: The session typically starts with relaxation
techniques. These can include deep breathing exercises,
visualisations, or progressive muscle relaxation.
2.
Induction: The hypnotherapist uses soothing language and
suggestions to guide you into a state of focused attention.
3.
Weight loss hypnotherapy is all
about rewiring your eating
habits for long-term success. It
addresses both the conscious
and subconscious aspects of
your relationship with food.
Emotional eating is a common
obstacle to weight loss. It's
when you turn to food as a way
to cope with emotions like
stress, sadness, or boredom.
These emotional triggers are
often deeply rooted in your
subconscious mind.
