Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss is an approach that has most successfully been brought about by the English hypnotist Paul McKenna. Using hypnotherapy to overcome overeating and binges is a very powerful way to get rid of eating more foods than our body actually needs for good.
The core concept revolves around retraining your brain by means of Neuro Linguistic Programing techniques. These techniques help to access your subconscious mind where those eating and behavior patterns are stored that regularly make you eat either more than your body needs or make you take in food for other reasons than actually nourish your body physically. Emotional and comfort eating make up a large part of why people overeat and become overweight.
With hypnotherapy for weight loss you get a real chance to make adjustments to your weight not only very quickly but more importantly to last you a life time. Other than those dieters that experience the feared jojo-effect after any other weight loss program, weight loss that is achieved by hypnotherapy will stay.
How does hypnotherapy for weight loss actually work? How can the subconscious mind be accessed?
As we all know, our brain has two hemispheres: the left hand side of the brain is the analytical part whereas the right hand side is non-analytical and intuitive. The left hand side is responsible for planning things and makes sure that we keep our schedules straight, so that we arrive in time, catch the right bus or successfully read a map. The right hand side of the brain is what artists rely on in order to tap into their creativity. Many would claim that they “instinctively knew” when a situation was odd or that they “visualized” a situation first before taking action.
Since the left hemisphere is fairly dominant, the first step in hypnotherapy for weight loss is to turn it off as best we can for the duration of our exercise. We do this by applying relaxation techniques which allow to let go of being overly alert to the situation around us and tune inwards. Simultaneously, with this shift in focus the subconscious mind is awoken and gets more alert. We aim to to access this part of the brain specifically since only here we can make the desired progress. In reprogramming our subconscious we can alter if not abolish our deep-seated eating patterns. From an induced state of enhanced awareness, a hypnotherapist will suggest new ideas and concepts in order to make lifestyle adaptations to the patient. The client´s subconscious mind will take those suggestions on and start to put the new concepts into action.
These efforts will result in a brain that has become adjusted to a natural and healthy way of signaling when you are truly hungry. Consequently, this leads to retraining your biological functions as well. A direct influence is taken on the stability of your blood sugar levels as well as on the entire digestive system.
Apart from the great and lasting results hypnotherapy for weight loss achieves it is an approach that keeps the the dieter truly autonomous. No dieting guru to follow, no ideology to adhere to, no strict rules to comply to in order to see some success. No gadgets to buy and no pills to take. Essentially it is a retraining of the brain that takes place at your own leisure and in accordance with your very own value system. In that there is no such thing as struggle or overcoming resistances. It is a comfortable and smooth path and is considered one of the best ways to lose weight fast.
