Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss and Eating Issues in North London
Article by Paul and Denise Douglass, North London Hypnotherapy
If you want to lose some weight in North London, then hypnotherapy really can help you.
Which type of hypnotherapy is best for YOU?
Which type of hypnotherapy would be best for you, can depend on how much weight you'd like to lose, and your reasons for having weight to lose in the first place.
Suggestion hypnotherapy for weight loss in North London
If you're looking to lose a moderate amount of weight, you will probably find that suggestion therapy could help you. Suggestion therapy can be done with a hypnosis download, or as a one-to-one session with a hypnotherapist in your area.
Pure Hypnoanalysis - one-to-one hypnotherapy sessions in north London for weight loss and eating issues
Pure Hypnoanalysis (a form of Analytical hypnotherapy) for weight control is geared towards finding the reason why a person is repeatedly feeling the need to overeat - whether it be due to:
- Compensation eating - and this is really 'comfort' eating and should be viewed as overeating to fulfill an emotional or psychological need. Eating because of stress can also come into this area, as can eating to make you 'feel better'.
- Reward eating (and this can still fall under the umbrella-term of compensation eating). Typical examples would be: 'I've had a great day - so I'm going to treat myself - even though I know I shouldn't really have it' ... or ... 'I've had a really bad day - where's that maxi-pack of crisps?'
- Feeling the need to be noticed and larger than life.
- Wishing to erect a 'barrier', that will (subconsciously), push other people away.
Dieting and weight Loss
Estimates show, that at any one time, as many as one in three of us are currently on a diet, with over half of us having dieted at some time in our lives.
The truth of the matter is that, for the vast majority of people, 'dieting' on its own just doesn't seem to work in the long term.
The question is: why not?
The answer is surprisingly simple... dieting, in essence, misses the point.
Those who successfully, and permanently lose weight, are not those who simply diet.
They are the ones who change the role that food plays in their life.
They learn to respect their food, and more importantly, to respect themselves.
Psychological forces
While slimming / dieting alone can indeed help someone to lose weight in the short term, once the diet ends, the weight can (an often does!), creep back on.
This is because dieting alone doesn't address the person's underlying psychological desire to overeat.
Self image
Another common reason that people give as their reason for wanting to lose weight, is that they 'feel fat', or 'enormous', when in reality they're not really overweight at all.
The problem here, of course, is usually self-image. Again, this is something that can be addressed, and yes, analytical hypnotherapy can help with this too.
