Weight Control
Take Back Control of your Weight.
Let the safe and natural process of hypnosis help you to take back control of your weight, and maintain it.
Excess Weight Gain and Eating Disorders
Causes for excess weight gain and eating disorders are varied and influenced by a number of factors that all need to be addressed for successful change. Most people begin their efforts to reduce their weight by dieting and depriving themselves of food. This starts a life-long battle of weight loss and weight gain. The body often responds very efficiently and the metabolic rate is lowered. When normal eating resumes, the body often favors excess fat storage.
In addition, self sabotaging perceptions and unresolved hurtful emotions can lead to excessive stress, anxiety, self-criticism, frustration and depression. To avoid discomfort, a person may find themselves eating, whether hungry or not. Dieting and food deprivation, increased desire to overeat or snack and a feeling of loss of control, can all contribute to an increasing problem with weight. This can lead to a fear of fatness and to develop bulimia or anorexia.
Hypnosis is a safe, natural and noninvasive method to create inner health. This frees a person to take back healthy control of their eating patterns. This in turn empowers a person to take back control of their weight and live a healthy and emotionally balanced life.
Please note:
Physical symptoms and disorders often have a major influence on the metabolic and other organ systems that effect body weight. In such cases, it is important to first address such physical symptoms and disorders.

Steps to Achieve Successful Results with Hypnosis
Self-Trust
Your body has a natural ability to guide you toward healthy eating. Your body knows more about its needs for proper health and nutrition, than anybody else possibly could. Hypnosis will help you rebuild such trust in your body’s natural and normal guidelines. As a result, listening and responding to your body’s natural indicators and internal cues for healthy eating patterns, allows you to successfully take back healthy control of your weight.
Focus on the Present
When you are fully in the moment, you are experiencing everything with a fresh eye and an open mind. Together we will work to help you grow free from past burdens and live powerfully in the present, creating your healthy new future.
Expectation
Expecting differs from hoping, wishing or trying. Being indefinite in your intentions only causes you to place yourself outside your goal and decrease success. Together we will work for you to be your goal, by imagining yourself already being your healthy and ideal weight. By establishing and reinforcing such expectations, your goal to become your healthy and ideal weight becomes your reality.
Motivation
To be successful, you must actively and consistently do what is necessary to meet your specific goals and reach your desired weight. Together we will work for you to move forth with desire, focus and determination to change old unhealthy patterns and create new healthy patterns.
Beliefs
Throuh hypnosis you can honestly and completely let go of all those old internal tapes and sabotaging opinions you feel others have formed about you, and you have formed about yourself. It helps you to eliminate those sabotaging perceptions that keep repeating within you and are holding you back from reaching your goals. Hypnosis then gives you the opportunity to accept new truths, new healthy perceptions, thoughts and images of yourself at your desired healthy body weight and size, and living your healthy lifestyle.
Identify and Acknowledge your Fears and Doubts
Together we will work to bring your fears, worries, doubts and struggles to the surface, where you can identify and acknowledge them. We will work for you to release any negative internal talk, self criticism and self discrimination that sabotage your success. You will then have room for new healthy emotions, feelings, thoughts and attitudes.
Awareness and Respect for your Body
Together we will work for you to become aware of your body’s inner cues, and distinguish between natural hunger cues and emotional hunger. In turn, you can respond more accurately to your true physical needs, and build healthy eating patterns. We will work for you to fully enjoy your eating experience by learning to eliminate distractions, slowing down, as well as establish control of the amount of food you eat.
Healthy Habits and Attitudes for a Healthy Lifestyle
As you form a close and respectful friendship with your body and actively meet its needs, you will find yourself naturally forming new desires for nutritious clean and fresh foods and building new healthy eating habits. In turn, you will find yourself building self confidence to be your fit, trim and appealing you.
Daily Body Imaging
An important part of the process of having control of your body weight and size is to mentally create the new trim, fit and stronger you, as you will be in the future. Whether we draw from healthy past memories or future anticipations, you will be able bring those desires, benefits and rewards into the present. Such a desirable image of yourself becoming stronger, more fit and trim, healthier and happier has a powerful and effective influence on you to overcome unhealthy eating and return to a healthier body weight and size.
Deep Breathing for Stress Reduction and Relaxation
Deep rhythmic breathing is central to creating a chain response for relaxing your body functions. I will help you to use deep breathing to release emotional stress, and loosen muscle and nerve tightness. This in turn will create an automatic chain response to help slow down your heartbeat, stabilize your metabolism, increase blood flow to your hands and feet, and balance your hormonal activity.
Exercise for Physical Health and Fitness
Our body still holds a genetic memory for self-preservation. Inactivity signals ill health and a need to store fat for emergency. Routine exercise signals your body that you are well and healthy. You will then find that the fat you let go of with a routine physical activity is fat you let go of completely. I encourage you to begin a consistent 30 minutes a day exercise and fitness routine that is geared to your needs and desires. During the first 20 minutes of activity, your body works off sugars. After 20 minutes, your body begins to work off unhealthy visceral fat. You will find yourself enjoying an increase level of energy and rate of metabolism. Your cortisol levels will also naturally decrease, which are stress hormones that promote unhealthy fat storage.
Create a Daily Eating Program and Stick to it
A desire to eat continually and at different hours of the day is a developed habit. This conditioned habit was created and established over time. However this can be changed. Together we will work for you to establish a new and healthier pattern of eating. It takes 2 to 3 weeks for you to grow comfortable with your new eating routine, and then about 6 to 10 weeks to solidify a new healthy pattern of eating into your mind.
I suggest building a routine of eating 3x to 5x a day, at approximately the same time each day. This sends your body the important message, that it will not be deprived or starved. You will naturally stabilize your metabolism and restore your normal biological rhythms.
Morning is the Single Most Important Time of the Day to Eat
Replace the term ‘meals’ with the idea of ‘times of eating’ to think smaller portions. In the morning eat a comfortably satisfying portion of fresh clean healthy food to activate your metabolism. Eat your biggest portion mid-day. Eat your smallest portion at the end of the day, so that the body burns excess fat while you sleep. If you find you are not consuming enough calories, establish a time where you eat another 1 to 2x per day.
Stop Eating about 4 Hours before you go to Sleep at Night
Excess fat reduction and stomach shrinking happens best while sleeping. Replace evening thoughts of hunger with thoughts of all the times you’ll be eating tomorrow and the next day and the next day and the next day.
remember…..
Be kind and gentle to yourself.
Give yourself plenty of time and patience to meet your desires and goals on your terms and timetable.
Your body is self healing when it is properly, nutritionally and naturally maintained.
For the Health of It!
Our wonderful natural world has given us great clues as to what food helps what part of our body.
