The Power Of Self Hypnosis For Weight Loss

By Jaclyn Hurley


Hypnosis refers to the act of inducing a trance state of deep relaxation, and heightened awareness. Usually, a qualified hypnotherapist would guide a client into such a meditative frame of mind, for purposes of what can be called deep reprogramming. Self hypnosis for weight loss involves the same principles, except that here hypnotically induced reprogramming, accompanied by appropriate suggestions, are self induced.

Hypnotherapy has proven to be a safe and effective therapeutic procedure to help people change negative habits like gambling, procrastination, or smoking, for example. The key to its effectiveness lies in that it works with the subconscious part of the personality, which houses the blueprints or motives for much behaviour patterns. In a state of hypnotic induction, specific suggestions from the therapist, or the individual, helps to reprogram the mind to become susceptible to new, desired, empowering beliefs, thoughts, and motives.

Hypnotic self induction is only possible after having learned the proper procedure from a qualified professional, and having spent enough time rehearsing it. Individuals with no experience in generating hypnotic trances, but wish to employ this method for shedding excess fat, are thus better off consulting the appropriate professional first. This is the best way to ensure that the desired outcomes are achieved, and that the correct procedures are adhered to.

The essence of reprogramming the subconscious mind under self-created hypnotherapy lies in substituting habitual, self-defeating habits and beliefs with alternative, better ones. This can be achieved through making different, empowering, suggestions to the subconscious that are specific, and in line with one's behavioural change goals. It is also a matter of creating appropriate images, and visualizing many times what it would be like to be the new person one desires to be.

Before going into a self induced hypnotic state, it is vital to have clarity about what the habits and beliefs are one wishes to change, and what the sought after, alternatives ones are. Perhaps, some behaviours that contribute to being overweight includes impulsive eating, consuming lots of food when feeling anxious, or eating whenever one feels bored, for example. It would be a good idea to compile a list of key limiting beliefs and problem habits before proceeding with hypnosis, just to be clear what ought to be the focus of attention.

It might be that the mind needs reprogramming by getting rid of problematic beliefs about food and the self. This could include troublesome beliefs like 'eating is good for stress release, ' or 'I will always be fat, no matter what I do.' Moreover, replacing old, negative actions with positive new ones could entail choosing to avoid junk food, eating slowly, getting into an exercise routine, or taking up meditation to help with anxiety and stress.

Sceptical folks with no, or little, knowledge about hypnotic states tend to think it involves merely generating fantasies with the desired goal in mind. On the contrary, the process works because it engages the imagination in a specific, focused, powerful manner. It is especially useful when all other avenues to rid the body of excess fat failed to prove successful.

Hypnotherapy might not produce the desired results for everyone. Whether aided by a therapist, or created through one's own efforts, it does require consistent practice to achieve success. People that have managed to achieve the longed-for body shape and size through the process have been at it regularly, however.
