How many times have we seen people do the unthinkable or the impossible, and be told that it was just a simple case of “mind over matter’? Well if you look at it closely, no matter what challenge you decide to take up in life, be it learning a new language, fighting an illness, or in this case loosing weight, if you are in the right frame of mind your goal is quite easily achievable.
Here we explore the power of the mind at a new level – weight loss through hypnosis. People suffering from overweight go through the agony of following various diets and exercise programs, and experiment with different drugs and supplements and quite often don’t achieve the desired results. Then of course, there is also the option of surgical intervention that many would shy from. The basic purpose of Hypnosis is to help your mind free itself from all the troubles and stress and to program it to a level where it aims to achieve tasks and goals.
Many people doubt the authenticity of hypnosis for this purpose since it does not involve any medication or surgery. Hypnosis does work and does not involve individuals to use products that can damage their health. Neither is it a tool to weight loss. It is merely an aid in losing weight and maintaining it over the long term.
The following is a list of points that describe some facts about hypnosis and so that you may have a basic idea about what to expect from hypnotherapy:
• First and foremost, you must make sure that you have a trained professional to carry out your hypnosis in order to avoid any mishaps and to achieve the desired results.
• In order to help the individual lose weight, hypnosis should be used in conjunction with proper diet and exercise. According to experts, hypnosis should be used as a technique in combination with other adjuncts in weight loss. And one single session of hypnotherapy is not enough, and it should be applied in combination with psychotherapy.
• Through hypnosis, a person’s mind is brought to a subliminal state where all his fears are washed away and positive messages are being fed to the mind to conquer those fears and tackle the problem. To elaborate a little further, the biggest fear or obstacles when losing weight are food cravings, snacking, comfort eating etc, With the help of hypnosis you shall be in control of your food rather than vice versa.
Contrary to some misconceptions, hypnosis is not a paranormal. In fact it unleashes your inner strength to achieve your goals.
You only are required to understand the levels of our mind which are conscious and sub conscious to get to the concept of hypnosis.
The thinking mind is your conscious mind that you are using right now to read these lines. You can call the conscious mind as your logical and reasoning mind too.
Your unconscious mind does no reasoning at all contrary to conscious mind. It simply does whatever conscious tells it to do it is like your body's computer. It blindly runs the software the conscious mind installs and orders it to function.
Your unconscious was to ask food and to feel hungry when you were still a child. There were no conscious working at that time but since then, your conscious thoughts have reinforced and modified that programming.
The solution to changing your unconscious programming is to "sneak past" the conscious mind and reprogram the unconscious. Hypnosis does this reprogramming for you.
There is no doubt therefore, that weight control through hypnosis is probably one of the most popular topics. It is true that many people are more than their ideal weight and have tried many things to shed those pounds, hopefully under the supervision of their Doctor. However, many also find it difficult to accomplish their goals and seek hypnosis as a panacea, which it is not. Hypnosis for weight loss is a complex process, but it must be made clear that hypnosis alone will not "make" anyone lose weight. Hypnosis is a tool which can be used to: explore and release the cause of the weight on an emotional or secondary gain level, motivate one to follow moderated eating plans, or to eat more healthily, change attitude and ideas toward the concepts of exercise and lifestyle changes that can promote thinness and healthy body and mind.
