Weight Management

 

 

Hypnotherapy for Weight Management

 

Estimates show, that at any one time, as many as one in three people are on a diet.  And over half of us have, at some stage in our lives, been on a diet.   
The truth of the matter is that, for the vast majority of people 'dieting' on its own just doesn't seem to work in the long term.

 

The question is - Why not?

 

The answer is surprisingly simple... dieting, in essence, misses the point.

 

Why are some people so successful in losing weight?

 

Those who successfully and permanently lose weight are not those who simply diet. 


They are the ones who change the role that food plays in their life.


They learn to respect their food and more importantly, to respect themselves.


While slimming/dieting alone can indeed help someone to lose weight in the short term, once the diet ends, the weight can (an often does) creep back on.  This is because dieting alone is unable to address a person's underlying psychological desire to overeat.


This is where using Hypnotherapy can help you lose weight.


Hypnotherapy for weight management is geared towards finding the reason why a person is repeatedly feeling the need to overeat.


This can be due to a number of reasons:

 

 

Compensation eating - this is really 'comfort' eating or eating to make you 'feel better'. Stress can also be a cause for compensation eating.

 

 

Reward eating - Typical examples would be: 'I've had a great day - so I'm going to treat myself - even though I know I shouldn't really have it' ... or ... 'I've had a really bad day - where's that maxi-pack of crisps?'

 

Notice me eating - Feeling the need to be noticed or wanting to feel larger than life.

 

Protection eating – Weight gain can also serve the purpose of creating a layer of protection around oneself.   

 

Another common reason people want to lose weight is they 'feel fat', or 'enormous', when in reality they're not really overweight at all.  This is usually due to a low self-image or self-esteem, this too can successfully be addressed with Hypnotherapy.   
Hypnotherapy is able to address these reasons in a very safe, relaxed and comfortable way, enabling you to feel a sense of freedom and relief. 


The sense of freedom you will feel after just one session will provide you with all the evidence you need to be truly convinced that Hypnotherapy is the way forward for weight management.
