Achieving and maintaining weight Loss
Achieving and maintaining our ideal body weight can be a struggle for the majority of people. Whether you are wanting to lose or gain some weight. It can often leave us feeling deflated and anxious with our self-confidence.
When we are suffering from an eating disorder, Bulimia, Anorexia, or binge eating our needs can be much more complex. For many it is a constant cycle of different diets which work short term but not for the long term.
To achieve our ideal weight, we need to re-think our behavior and our thinking around food. Which is where Hypnotherapy can help.
Hypnotherapy allows our conscious and unconscious minds to link. This allows us to change our thought patterns and behaviors around food. Building new and healthier habits.
There are a number of studies that suggest that Hypnotherapy can be very effective. Helping us make the changes needed to reach our goals.
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy helps us see the steps we need to take in making these changes. Hence not a quick fix but a much more long-lasting one.
When we are under hypnosis our attention is highly focused. Therefore helping us think clearly about the steps we need to take in changing our habits. As well as taking away some of the anxiety that we feel when we don’t think we are at our best.
How Anxiety makes weight Loss more difficult.
This anxiety only contributes to the difficult task of meeting our ideal weight and is why sometimes it feels that we are getting nowhere. Consequently, when we reduce our stress/anxiety levels we are less likely to think emotionally.
It’s the emotional thinking that leads us to eat the wrong food at the wrong time. Therefore lowering our anxiety allows us to think more logically and make the right decisions.
Hypnotherapy aims to make you more comfortable and confident with your own body. A positive frame of mind helps us achieve our goals more readily. Without diets or pills some of which can be harmful to our health. A positive mood also reduces cortisol levels in the body.
Cortisol is a stress hormone, and when we are constantly under stress it remains high. Leading to problems in sleeping, digestion, weight gain, and other health problems.
Lowering our cortisol levels by reducing stress helps maintain our weight. We have all the necessary solutions for weight management inside of us. Sometimes however we need help getting ourselves on the right track.
