So tell me, how many of you don't worry about your weight? I mean, really worry if you're a little overweight, or a lot overweight or even underweight?
You are not alone!
Apparently, in 2004 a Poll by Mintel estimated that one in four adults in the UK were "trying to lose weight most of the time".
That means, at that time, around 13 million people were on a continual diet.
That's pretty startling statistics, and if you consider that was 8 years ago, so imagine what the figures would be today.
Now, I'm all for eating healthily and changing eating patterns, but I am in the business of teaching people how to make long term changes, not continue with fast fix diets. Dieting doesn't work long term. But a change in attitude can work and does make a beneficial impact on your life gradually over time. If someone gave you the option; lose 4 stone in 4 months, but put it all back on in a year, or lose 4 stone in 2 years but keep that weight off permanently, which would you opt for?
Permanent weight loss is achievable, but first you need to look beyond the food you are consuming, and look into past experiences or learnt behaviour which could be contributing to over eating, comfort eating, subconscious eating and habitual eating. If our self esteem has been damaged in our early years, no amount of dieting will keep the weight off permanently. This is why you sometimes hear of people who have gastric bands fitted and get ultra thin, only to put the weight back on in time or be utterly miserable even though they are thin.
It is often not until we uncover our subconscious misconceptions or negative beliefs that we can start to view food in a totally different way. When we begin to understand the reasons behind food issues, we can work on uncovering, and understanding those things so that weight loss becomes second nature and food is no longer used in a negative way.
Hypnoanalysis can uncover the reasons why we become overweight. Hypnoanalysis is a way of revisiting past events that have been locked away. While you are in a state of hypnosis, it is easier for your subconscious mind to 'push forward' the thoughts and experiences from your life which are all somehow significantly and symbolically linked back to your bottled up emotions and experiences. Your mind will freely associate one thought to another and another and gradually, over a period of between 8 and 12 (on average) weekly sessions, the original experiences and the accompanying bottled up emotions are allowed to come to the surface. Once these things are out of the subconscious, clients then have no reason to hold on to those things that were making them overweight.
