Hypnotize the Pounds Away:
Weight Loss Motivation Through Hypnosis
Many individuals these days, male or female, young or old, are struggling
with weight management. Concerns with rising cases obesity are no longer
based upon a Hollywood conception of what is the appropriate body size.
Instead of doctors wanting their patients to be “thinner,” they want
them to be healthier. The patients, however, are not necessarily discerning
the difference.
What
Has This Lead To?
Both women and men alike are becoming hooked on yo-yo diets. What is
a yo-yo diet? Yo-yo dieting describes the process of going on a diet,
losing a few pounds and then going off the diet. When the pounds come
back, the dieter then begins another diet and the process continues.
Repetitive weight loss and gain is hard on the body, especially the
heart and of course, it is hard on the emotional state of the dieter
as well.
In addition to this, many dieters are using unhealthy methods of losing
weight. Many take dieting pills which are often just glorified caffeine
pills claiming to be the miracle cure for obesity. Then, there are those
who dive into the “fad diets.” Whether it is the cabbage or grapefruit
diets, many of these do not give individuals the nutrition they need
to live healthily. In addition, low carb diets such as Atkins often
create abnormally high levels of protein in the body for the liver to
digest. After all, man cannot live on meat and cheese alone.
What
To Do?
Sometimes, good old diet and exercise is just not enough. Maybe it’s
the genes. Maybe it is behavioral choices that we make everyday without
realizing how they are undermining our health. So how do we change
these behaviors? One method is through weight loss motivation
hypnosis. You may have visions of a creepy soul dangling a pocket watch
in front of your face and your eyes beginning to spin. However, this
is not what hypnosis is.
The goal of hypnosis is to access the subconscious mind. Under normal
circumstances, you control your conscious level of thought while your
subconscious takes care of the automatic stuff, like tying your shoes
or starting the dishwasher, things that do not require conscious thought.
Still, your subconscious is like the driving force that works with our
conscious brain to control our actions. Sleeping is the time when consciousness
is put on the back burner and the subconscious mind can take control.
Dieting
Motivation Through Hypnosis
Hypnotism works on relaxing the conscious level of the mind. Although
your conscious mind is subdued and the subconscious mind is allowed
the front seat, you are still knowledgeable about what is going on.
You and your hypnotist will work to “reprogram” the subconscious side
of you. If chocolate, for example, is your weakness, your hypnotist
may associate chocolate with nausea so that thinking of chocolate makes
you feel nauseous.
