Weight loss Through Hypnosis: The Key to Lasting Weight Loss

By Dr. Timothy D Annis

It's a daily struggle for many American to attain and keep a health weight. Many fail. The CDC reports that in several states the rate of obesity has risen steadily since the mid 1980's and in several states now exceeds 30 percent. This has been a boon for the weight loss industry as more and more people are seeking effective weight loss systems. One method that many people are finding lasting success with is weight loss through hypnosis. One frequently asked question though, is does hypnosis for weight loss work?

To understand how weight loss through hypnosis works it helps to understand why most traditional weight loss methods fail, and fail they do. The weight loss industry takes in billions every year but every year since 1985 the number of overweight people has gone up. That sounds like failure to me. At it's simplest, all traditional method of weight loss involve eating fewer calories and expending more energy. All the popular diets, exercise and weight loss programs simply provide variations of different methods of eating and exercise and most programs work if you follow them. The problem is most people find it to difficult to follow them. One common reason cited for failure to follow a better lifestyle is that people feel like they are fighting with themselves over what they want (something delicious) and what they know is good for them. It's like they are constantly at war with themselves. Most people lose that battle, as the average diet only lasts two weeks. That's where weight loss through hypnosis can help.

We know that the principles of weight loss are very simple. Every single person who takes in fewer calories that they expend will lose weight but most people find it to difficult to do the right things to lose weight because we have been conditioned to act and think in a certain way. Weight loss through hypnosis works by retraining our brain to think in such a way that we no longer feel like we are at war with ourselves. After hypnosis for weight loss training, the actions that lead to weight loss become second nature and easy to follow. You still have to have a good diet and exercise program to follow, hypnosis for weight loss just makes it easy.

A few people always express concern and wonder if hypnosis for weight loss is safe. The fact is, there has never been a recorded case of someone getting stuck in a hypnotic state. It is also not possible for someone to hypnotize you and make you do something you don't want to do. Hypnosis for weight loss simply allows your mind to be open to creating subconscious thought patterns that are consistent with what your conscious rational mind wants. This resolves the internal struggle and weight loss becomes natural and easy.

There are pros and cons to weight loss through hypnosis. The advantages are, hypnosis for weight loss makes it easy to overcome the primary reason for weight loss failure, which is the battle you have with yourself to stick to the right kind of lifestyle. The only real con is that weight loss through hypnosis initially takes time out of your day for training. Just like any other skill you would learn you have to devote some time to it. Initially it only takes about 25-30 minutes per day. - 31857
