Hypnotherapy in Brighton and Hove for help with weight loss*

How would you describe your relationship with food? Recognising the reason behind any negative eating habits is the first step towards understanding how you can regain control. Hypnotherapy in Brighton & Hove at the Conway Practice can help you to lose weight and maintain the weight loss without the need for crash dieting or fad diets which are not a long-term solution for healthy weight management.*

The compulsion to overeat or to eat unhealthy, weight-gaining foods often has complex origins, which may be traced back as far as early childhood. Family influences and eating habits such as being pressured to finish a meal or if food was restricted, can result in this conditioning persisting into adulthood with no conscious awareness of the negative effects.

While in the relaxed state of hypnosis the mind is more open to positive imagery and suggestion, enabling Jonathan Conway to access the memories stored in the subconscious.* A comforting memory when associated with food for instance, can trigger emotional eating when faced with stressful or challenging situations. Trying to lose weight in itself can cause anxiety, which then lowers motivation and increases the desire for food which relates to providing comfort. This is especially relevant if you are under pressure to lose weight for medical reasons, or in time for a special event.

Lack of self-esteem can be responsible for a ‘why bother’ defeatist attitude, sabotaging any attempts to improve your eating habits. While your inner voice  wants to improve your eating habits, the negativity of your critical conscious mind may cause you to doubt that you will succeed in reaching your weight loss goal. Hypnotherapy can be very effective for increasing self-worth and motivation, enabling you to focus on your true potential.

Jonathan will help you to recognise the traps which trigger mindless or emotional eating and to introduce calming techniques reducing stress and anxiety, leaving you free to achieve sustainable weight loss and get back on track with a much healthier lifestyle.

How hypnotherapy in Brighton can help with weight loss*

How would you describe your relationship with food? If you have been trying to lose weight, the first step is to recognise any detrimental behaviour which may be sabotaging any attempts to control your eating habits. Hypnotherapy in Brighton can help with your weight loss by identifying the subconscious triggers which lead to disordered eating.*

As with any relationship which has an imbalance, there are commonly feelings of guilt, stress, an anxious state of mind and low self-worth. Food can be used as a consolation when your coping mechanisms fail to deal with your stressors and comfort eating is a good example of this. Certain foods are likely to remind you of your early years, when you were pacified or rewarded with treats which you now associate with the ‘feel good factor’. During hypnosis in Brighton & Hove, Jonathan will help you to focus on the influences and negative beliefs which have been stored in the non-conscious mind and have led to your inability to achieve your weight loss goal.*

Emotional or mindless eating occurs when you find yourself compelled to eat for non-hunger related reasons. The craving is generally for high calorie, unhealthy food which may briefly enhance the mood but is then followed swiftly with feelings of regret and self-blame. Jonathan will talk to about how you use food to cope with negative emotions such as stress and anger.* Deeply rooted beliefs such as having to finish everything on your plate can be re-addressed, enabling you to listen to your internal cues and to stop eating as soon as you feel full.

Hypnotherapy in Brighton & Hove can help you to lose weight by overcoming the psychological hurdles which have prevented you from succeeding with your weight loss efforts in the past.* Visualisation and relaxation techniques can be introduced to cope with anxiety and stress, allowing you to re-build a positive relationship with food where you are in control.*  For more information call Jonathan Conway on 07956 855027

Control weight with hypnotherapy in Harley Street*

If you have been trying to lose weight without success, can you relate to the following scenario? You decide to manage your eating regime by only buying healthy foods; vegetables, fruit and salads, only to leave them uneaten while you continue to eat food which has contributed to your weight gain. If you associate eating with comfort, boredom or stress, hypnotherapy in Harley Street can help with your weight loss by enabling you to re-programme any negative association which may be weakening your resolve.*

During hypnosis, Jonathan will encourage you to recognise the issues behind your relationship with food.*  These may well have developed over a considerable period of time and can often be traced back to early eating habits, resulting in certain foods representing comfort later into adulthood. This non-conscious attachment can be used as form of emotional comfort to alleviate loneliness and a lack of social interaction, low self-esteem and anxiety.

Distance memories stored in the subconscious mind can be a nostalgic recall of when food was given as a reward or a pacifier. However, the common habit of not wasting food and having to clear your plate even when you are no longer hungry can continue to be an automatic response, resulting in a pattern of overeating and the subsequent weight gain. Hypnotherapy in Harley Street will address the difference between emotional and physical hunger, helping you to identify the sensory cues which are responsible for any negative eating habits.*

Once these subconscious triggers are identified, routines with food association can be changed, such mindless eating while watching TV where there is no awareness of how much is being consumed. Hypnotherapy for weight loss can help you to adopt a more positive relationship with food, by establishing the root cause of any anxiety or negative emotions, introducing new coping mechanisms which will result in a healthy eating regime.*

Manage your weight with hypnotherapy in Harley Street*

If you have not had any success with controlling your weight, you may have already found that fad or crash diets are unhealthy both physically and emotionally and are not sustainable in the long term. Hypnotherapy in Harley Street at the Conway Practice provides help for weight loss, without the need to put your body into starvation mode.*

Hypnosis has no negative impact on your health and is completely safe.*

During the first consultation Jonathan Conway will determine any limiting beliefs and enable you to regain control over any negative eating habits.* You may have developed these habits over a long period of time, carrying family influences into adulthood. Hypnotherapy in Harley Street can help you to manage your weight by introducing a new relationship with food, without the feelings of guilt or anxiety which may have attributed to overeating in the past.*

Recognising the subconscious prompts which trigger negative eating, can be a major step in understanding why you have found it difficult to maintain a healthy consumption of food. Emotional eating during times of stress and anxiety has nothing to do with physical hunger and is also commonly due to boredom, loneliness or the need for comfort.*

Negative self-talk and lack of confidence can result in self-sabotaging an attempt to lose weight, with the belief that you don’t deserve to improve yourself. Focusing on your weight may be a distraction to avoid dealing with overwhelming emotional issues in your life. During hypnosis, negative thoughts stored in the subconscious can be reprogrammed, introducing new coping mechanisms including relaxation and visualisation techniques.* Once you are able to recognise that any feelings of inferiority are unfounded, your thinking and attitudes can be transformed, contributing to a potentially healthier and improved quality of life.*

The Benefits of Hypnotherapy in Brighton for Weight Loss*

If this will be your first experience of hypnotherapy, you may be apprehensive about what can be expected and how affective this can be for achieving weight loss. Previous attempts to lose weight with fad diets or slimming products may well have failed, leaving you disheartened and concerned that you will never control your eating habits. Instead of dwelling on the problem, hypnotherapy in Brighton at the Conway Practice takes a different approach, by focusing on a future when you will feel much better about yourself and able to maintain a positive relationship with food.*

At the initial consultation, Jonathan Conway will take the time to listen to you; building an alliance of trust. Negative thought patterns and a reliance on food as an emotional substitute may have developed over a number of years, even from very early childhood. Recognising what food has represented in your life is the first step in overcoming poor eating habits which have contributed to weight gain.* Identifying the subconscious triggers which are responsible for excessive or mindless eating will bring about an understanding of how these can be controlled and overcome.

Environmental cues can be significant with a profound and long-term affect from social and family influences. If food has been considered as a form of reward or comfort, during hypnosis you will be guided to uncover and recognise the difference between emotional and physical hunger. Your critical inner voice may lead to a lack of self-worth and a feeling of inadequacy, with the misbelief that you don’t deserve to be fit and healthy. Hypnotherapy for weight loss in Brighton can help you to appreciate your true capabilities and to enable positive change.*

Whether you overeat due to a ‘hand-to-mouth’ habit, to reduce stress or boredom, hypnotherapy can be both uplifting and liberating, by introducing new coping-mechanisms, establishing a lifestyle change that brings long-term benefits.*

Weight Loss With Hypnosis in Brighton & Hove*

As we leave the winter behind us and enter the warmer seasons, there is often an increased motivation to be slimmer and fitter for holidays or more energetic outdoor activities. Help to lose weight in Brighton at the Conway Practice provides a completely safe and natural way to achieve weight loss without the need for crash dieting, medication or dietary supplements.*

During hypnosis, your relationship with food and your eating patterns will be discussed to determine where there are issues which need to be addressed.*

Weight control isn’t simply eating less, it’s also about understanding why you are compelled to eat specific foods at certain times and to appreciate how these subconscious triggers can be controlled.

In order to develop a healthier relationship with food, Jonathan will help you through hypnotherapy to recognise any negative self-talk resulting in a roller-coaster food related lift in mood, followed swiftly by a feeling of guilt, which can have a detrimental affect on health and state of mind.* There is a difference between being physically hungry and emotional hunger, with the latter often due to stress or boredom. You may find that you associate comfort food with certain pastimes, when watching TV for example with mindless eating and no conscious awareness of how much is being consumed.

While you are in the calm state of hypnosis, diversion techniques and intuitive strategies can be introduced, replacing misbeliefs which have been stored in the subconscious from past influences.* Being conditioned to clear everything on your plate can be a hangover from childhood and as an adult you may be unaware of the internal cues of fullness, resulting in habitual overeating. Hypnotherapy in Brighton & Hove can help you to overcome the need to resort to comfort food by introducing new stress-relieving coping mechanisms.*

With hypnotherapy at the Conway Practice in Brighton you will appreciate how you can focus on long-term objectives, whether you want to lose weight for health reasons or to improve your appearance, increase your energy levels or to feel more confident.* A positive relationship with food will put you back in control and enable weight management without resorting to unsustainable dieting.*

Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss in Highgate, North London*

If you are one of the many serial dieters switching regularly from dieting to a rapid return to bad eating habits, you may have come to appreciate that this isn’t the solution to maintaining a healthy weight. Quick fix or fad diets aren’t sustainable in the long-term and once the target weight has been reached for an upcoming event such as a beach holiday or a social celebration, it’s easy to slip back into old eating habits. Hypnotherapy for weight loss in Highgate at the Conway Practice takes a different approach by enabling you to understand your relationship with food and how the underlying issues can be resolved.*

What can you expect during a session in hypnotherapy? Hypnosis is very similar to a daydream, where you are only vaguely aware of your surroundings but still remain in complete control.* In this relaxed state, while the mind is far more open to positive suggestion and is free of distraction, Jonathan Conway will gently guide you to recall memories of events or influences held deeply in the subconscious which are now negatively impacting on your relationship with food.*

What does food mean to you? Is it a form of comfort or reward, a reminder of childhood and a family environment in which you first learned how much and what to eat and continues to dominate your eating habits? There are likely to be particular prompts for mindless snacking with no conscious awareness of how much is being consumed. Stress can affect preferences for high calorie and sugary food and is often a trigger to overeating.  Once you have entered the state of hypnosis while your mind is more receptive to making beneficial behavioural changes, Jonathan will give verbal suggestions which can be absorbed to improve self-esteem and motivation, reducing stress and anxiety.* Hypnotherapy in Highgate, North London provides a safe solution for losing weight with the long-term benefit of healthy lifestyle changes.*

Weight Management with Hypnotherapy in Brighton*

If you want to lose weight, have you considered your relationship with food? Weight loss with hypnotherapy in Brighton at the Conway Practice can be achieved by allowing you to address subconscious thoughts which result in negative eating habits undermining any attempts to lose weight.*

Unlike ineffective yo-yo dieting, or crash diets which are unsustainable, weight management with hypnotherapy is about understanding the role food plays in your life and why it has been difficult to control your cravings.* Hypnosis weight loss techniques can help you to recognise the underlying causes which trigger the unhealthy eating habits contributing to weight gain and the inability to achieve the necessary life-style changes.* The mind is far more open to positive suggestion during the relaxed state of hypnosis, enabling Jonathan to trace the origins of your attitude to food and where changes need to be introduced.*

The subconscious prompts which trigger patterns of negative eating have various sources. Mindless eating can be associated with boredom, where food is simply something to help pass the time, without an awareness of any feeling of fullness, or how much is being consumed. Hypnotherapy can enable you to recognise the specific danger zones and to disassociate food with situations where you are at most risk of temptation.*

Comfort eating is often a learned response which can be traced back to childhood and family influences with food continuing to be a coping mechanism when you’re feeling anxious or miserable. Hypnosis for weight loss is an effective coaching tool, allowing you to process negative emotions and understand the distinction between emotional and physical hunger.* In re-conditioning your subconscious, the delusion that food is the solution to stress or low self-esteem can be replaced with a new and positive mind-set and a far healthier lifestyle.*

Lose Weight with Hypnotherapy in Brighton & Hove*

As the festive season approaches with the temptation to indulge in excess, you might be torn between getting into shape before the celebrations start or waiting until the New Year to address any bad eating habits. Delaying the weight management programme may simply serve as an excuse to overeat, especially when this is generally recognised as acceptable behaviour at this time of the year. Hypnotherapy in Brighton can help you to lose weight without spoiling your enjoyment of family meals and social gatherings.*

During sessions in hypnosis at the Conway Practice in Brighton & Hove, Jonathan Conway will discuss your relationship with food and what it means to you.* Is it perhaps a form of comfort and self-reward, or something which you rely on during times of stress? Without doubt, festivities can be stressful for some and even more so for those who experience social anxiety. Do you reach for something to eat in order to appear occupied when faced with making conversation? If you’re eating you can’t be talking at the same time, allowing you to avoid interaction. Mindless eating during a social situation can be a form of mirroring the habits of others in order to fit in, despite not being physically hungry.

Hypnotherapy enables the subconscious to co-operate with the conscious mind and to build a defence against the overeating triggers.* While in the state of hypnosis, powerful resources stored deep in the unconscious can be drawn upon to establish new coping mechanisms.* Relaxation techniques to reduce stress and manage anxiety can be combined with positive imaging, the rehearsal for a relationship with food where you, rather than your emotions are in control.*

Weight loss with hypnotherapy in Brighton can be achieved by overcoming self-limiting beliefs and creating beneficial life-style changes.* In the re-programming  of unhealthy eating habits the way you think about food and what it represents will be transformed, resulting in much healthier and sustainable weight management.*   

Weight Management is Possible With the Help of Hypnotherapy*

Have you tried to change your eating habits and not succeeded? Hypnotherapy can help you to lose weight not only for a better body image and but also to improve your health and fitness.* At the Conway Practice, Jonathan Conway will address your relationship with food and identify the triggers to a pattern of overeating or being compelled to eat unhealthy, weight-gaining foods.*

It’s important to recognise when and why the negative relationship with food first began. Is there for instance a compulsion to consume certain foods when you are stressed or anxious which remind you of your formative years when these were associated with comfort or reward? Poor eating habits later in life may well have been a result of enforced rules, such as finishing everything on your plate before being praised with a treat. This then becomes normal behaviour, leading to a pattern of overeating even when there’s no physical hunger. These ingrained habits can be difficult to overcome until they are consciously recognised as a main contributor to sabotaging any attempt at weight control.

Hypnotherapy can help with weight loss by changing your perception of food.*

During hypnosis while you are in a deeply relaxed state of mind, Jonathan will use positive suggestion to resolve any cycle of negative association with your dietary habits.* Once the negative perspective has changed, emotional triggers to overeating can be easily controlled and overcome, without constantly living life on a roller-coaster of unsustainable dieting followed by a rapid return to craving unhealthy weight-gaining foods.

Identifying the root cause of a dysfunctional relationship with food through hypnotherapy will enable you to focus less on eating and more on visualising how you will feel once you have achieved and maintained a healthier lifestyle.* Issues such as stress management or low self-esteem can be resolved during sessions in hypnosis with Jonathan at the Conway Practice, leaving you empowered to reach your goal and not look back.*
