Weight Loss

If you have ever seen a hypnosis stage show, you may be wondering how weight loss through hypnosis may work, especially after seeing people performing some very unusual kind of behaviours.  People dancing around, singing, behaving like they are a washing machine etc.

Now in a therapy room using weight loss hypnosis techniques you are probably not interested in any of the above. But there are some aspects to a stage hypnotists bag of tricks you’ll want your hypnotherapist to include in your session.

What a stage hypnotist is able to do, is rapidly induce que controlled behavior. You see a red light while driving you apply the break. The phone rings you answer. I throw a ball, your hand goes out and catches it. There is the stimulus the red light. There is the reaction, putting your foot on the brake. There is the stimulus the ringing of the telephone, and there is the reaction, picking up the phone. There is no need to consciously make the decision to take action.

A hypnotist on stage is using a similar process, just speeding up the time it takes to learn the reflex response. When I say the word sleep, your eyes close. When I say lion, you roar like a lion. When I click my fingers you act like a washing machine, etc

When it comes to weight loss for hypnosis a hypnotherapist should be including some cue controlled reactions.
When I see  chocolate it makes me feel disgusted. When I open the fridge door, I look for healthy foods. When I serve my portions I put half as much on the plate. The type of behaviours you want to develop are discussed with  the hypnotherapist.

For some people these cue controlled behaviors incorporated into their hypnosis sessions works very well and changes in eating habits may occur very rapidly. For others the effects are more subtle.   But remember this is only one small aspect to hypnotherapy for weightless. If it works for you great, you are going to get off to a flying start.  There are many other techniques to help you lose weight through hypnosis, and your hypnotherapist will be able to find the best tools that work for you.
