A lot of our personality is a result of our childhood and how we are brought up. If our parents used food as a reward for good behavior or as an emotional pick me up then the subconscious learned that whenever it deserves a reward or it has had a bad day, then it has learned to turn to food. However, hypnotherapy can help control and replace these old ways of thinking and give you a new way of effective weight management.

Examples of this can be seen when people feel down so buy chocolates to feel better and not because they are hungry. Even if you want to lose weight your subconscious mind may have all these bad habits that it automatically turns too which is a part of the reason, we have all the cravings and desires for unhealthy foods and why so many people struggle to lose weight or eat healthily.

Your body may crave food but unless your pregnant it is not your body craving junk food it is your subconscious mind that is creating this craving. Your body just craves food when hungry and the subconscious will convert that hunger into cravings and will use the eating habits of the past to create cravings for unhealthy foods. You need to replace this with a healthy weight management system.

Resolve and commitment alone can be enough for some people to lose weight and keep it off but unless you are aware of your bad habits, they will be hard to change. Bad habits such as being taught to clear your plate instead of stopping when you feel full only teaches your body to keep eating when it no longer needs to. You need to be aware of the habits so you can spot them when they are triggered.

If you want to lose weight then as long as there is no medical condition preventing it, you need to break the bad habits and replace them with better eating habits.

Effective Weight Management can be helped by hypnotherapy.

By explaining to the subconscious mind how the bad habits are not helping you either physically or emotionally and then we can plant positive suggestions in the subconscious and help break these habits so that your subconscious doesn’t automatically follow its old habits when placed in a situation that would normally trigger eating junk food or overeating.

It may be that you are not even consciously aware of a reason to resist change and lose weight. If this is the case the hypnotherapist can use hypnoanalysis techniques such as regression to find the cause of your resistance to change and help to resolve it thereby helping you to move forward in your weight loss journey.

You also may not believe in yourself or your ability to change. If you are convinced that you will fail to lose weight your subconscious will ensure that becomes reality. Hypnotherapy can be a great way to improve confidence and your belief in your ability to change or succeed.

If your bad eating habits are caused by stress or anxiety and you find that this causes you to eat foods you would like to quit then again, these issues could be helped with hypnotherapy.

A weight-loss journey is not all or nothing from the instant you decide to change. It is taking one step at a time, making one change at a time replacing each bad habit one by one. The more habits and changes you make the closer you will get to your desired destination.

Hypnotherapy can help you find the belief in yourself to be able to succeed, it can help with any anxiety that triggers bad eating patterns and it can help you break or replace each of the bad habits until you get where you need to be.
