How Hypnotherapy Can Help with Weight Loss in Brighton*
It could be said that few would admit to being completely content with their body shape. People frequently complain about being too short, too tall, or are simply not happy with their body shape. However, the one issue which many are continually struggling to achieve is be slimmer. With a multitude of slimming products on the market, why choose hypnosis to lose weight?
Poor eating habits may well have developed over a long period of time and are often accompanied by fad diets which are only briefly effective, if at all. This results in what is known as yo-yo dieting where the weight may go down, but soon increases again. Overeating alone isn’t the issue, it’s the root cause which needs to be found. Entrenched negative patterns of eating must change, together with a damaging attitude to food which perhaps relates back to childhood.
Food is often seen as both a reward and a penance. During a low state of mind, or when anxious or bored, it’s common to comfort eat. The problem with comfort food is that it is rarely good for us and unhealthy eating, especially in excess causes weight gain. As children, food often becomes a means of control, with the reward or withholding of high calorie cakes, puddings and sweets. Later as adults it’s easy to associate this with something we deserve as a feel-good factor when we’re feeling miserable or stressed.
So how does hypnotherapy in Brighton work? Low self-esteem limits motivation, which makes any attempt to stick to a diet more difficult. Jonathan Conway provides sessions in hypnotherapy at the Conway Practice in Brighton to help you lose weight and to maintain a well-balanced eating programme in the long term*.
Overeating is rarely due to hunger and food becomes a panacea for other issues that need to be recognised and addressed. While relaxed under hypnosis, the reason for your obsession with certain food or drink will be identified*. Emotional eating is often connected to negative self-talk and once these limiting beliefs are removed, your relationship with food will change*.
Jonathan will guide you with positive visualisation, enabling you to imagine how your self-confidence will increase once you are not only happy with your appearance, but are also fitter and healthier*.
Hypnotherapy in Brighton & Hove can help you to feel lighter both physically and emotionally*.
