Yes, maybe it’s time to tap into the subconscious mind to lose the weight for good.
What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a trance-like state of consciousness when someone is focused and receptive to suggestions. But according to the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH), this state isn’t the same as losing control or being gullible but an opportunity to get hold of your inherent abilities.
During a hypnosis session, the clinical hypnotherapist first understands your goals. Then, the hypnotherapist guides you to relax and will induce your mind into a trance. When you’re in a hypnotic trance, that’s when the suggestions come in.
As you continue with the sessions, the new patterns become more established as part of your system. Hypnosis can reprogram your subconscious mind towards personal change.
Hypnosis has been found to work for many ailments conditions such as anxiety, depression, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). Also, it can help curb bad habits such as binge-eating, alcoholism, worry, smoking, or nail biting.
It can even help you perform better at work or in sports. It can strengthen your motivation to improve and do better.
Does Hypnosis for Weight Loss Work?
There are many root causes of obesity. Some maybe stress eating or emotional eating. Others may be living a sedentary lifestyle and don’t have the willpower to hit the gym consistently.
While some weight loss programs are geared towards physically removing the weight through exercise and diet, hypnosis for weight loss online involves modifying subconscious thought patterns with suggestions to help change your eating habits, diet, and even lifestyle. It can help you get away from the junk food that you constantly crave and embrace healthy and mindful eating.
There’s significant research showing that weight loss hypnosis is effective. A 2021 review concluded that hypnosis helped the participants lose weight fast from one to ten kilograms after follow up. Moreover, it also contributed to healthy eating habits and increased their physical activity.
Similarly, an earlier study in 2020 showed that hypnosis significantly reduced the body mass index (BMI) of the participants. In addition, the study noted that hypnotherapy is a cost-effective therapeutic approach with no harsh side effects, and can be applied on its own or in combination with other treatment modalities.
Hypnosis for Weight Loss Online Vs. Face to Face
There are advantages and disadvantages of both online hypnosis for weight loss sessions and face to face.
The former’s biggest benefits are comfort and convenience. Since you’re at home, you can just find a comfortable place to sit or lie down. There isn’t much preparation either, no need to get ready early.
Also, people can choose to work with a hypnotherapist who lives in another part of the world. You have more choices in trying to find the right person or modality for you. Some people even choose to download a weight loss hypnosis app.
On the other hand, some people prefer face to face hypnotherapy after years of Covid anxiety, restrictions, and Zoom calls. It might be easier to build rapport with your hypnotherapist. It can also be a way to get out of the house and be undisturbed for an hour.
The good news is, both modes work. You can try both to see which one is the best weight loss hypnosis modality for you. While there’s a lot of free hypnosis available online, do your homework first. Check their credentials and make sure it isn’t a scam.
So, if you’re ready to lose weight, achieve your ideal body mass index (BMI) and regain your self-confidence, feel free to book an appointment here.
