Discover Self-Hypnosis: End Weight Worry Forever

June 22nd, 2007    Subscribe To Our Feed

Although self-hypnosis is easy to learn and to use, it’s a very powerful tool, especially if you want to lose weight.

As a weight loss tool, you can use self-hypnosis in two ways: firstly to discover what’s causing you to overeat. This is valuable knowledge. Secondly, to give yourself hypnotic suggestions which will help you to lose weight, such as that you’re in control of food, and that you’re highly motivated to lose weight.

You’re Hypnotized Every Day - So Take Control Now

Self-hypnosis is just autosuggestion (suggestions we give ourselves), and we all respond to suggestion. After all, we may have piled on our weight because we responded to suggestions from TV commercials, and tempting aromas wafting from a bakery, and from memories of the sensual pleasure of eating. It’s time to discover how to give yourself suggestions which will help you to lose weight.

You may be amazed when you realize that you’re hypnotized many times each  day. For example, have you ever completed a task completely without thinking? Or lost yourself in a movie or book? You were hypnotized. Learning self-hypnosis just means discovering a method which allows you to consciously do what you do very well already.

Self-Hypnosis Is A Powerful Tool For Investigation And Accomplishing Weight Loss

Once you learn the basics of self-hypnosis, you’re in control of your weight. You’ll want to analyze your eating habits while you’re in a slight trance. This enables you to be non-judgmental, and to discover what’s driving your weight gain.

For example, let’s say that suddenly you realize that you’ve eaten an entire container of ice cream. Instead of being hard on yourself, imagine putting yourself in a slight trance and thinking about what led up to your eating binge. You may discover that you had a stressful day, and that you ate to calm yourself.

With this new knowledge, you can choose to get stress relief from another activity: perhaps calling a friend, going to a movie, or going for a walk. You can immediately instill this new behavior with self-hypnosis. Now the next time you have a hard day, you impulsively call a friend you’ve been meaning to call for weeks - this new behavior happens completely automatically, you don’t have to think about it, any more than you thought about reaching for the ice cream.

Intrigued about the potential of self-hypnosis to help you to lose weight? The best way to learn self-hypnosis is with the instruction of a hypnotherapist. Check your local phone book. Or, if you’re a do-it-yourself kind of person, you can learn self-hypnosis from tapes, CDs, DVDs, or books.

If you’re a smoker, you know how hard it is to give up. In fact, you’ve probably tried to quit before. Perhaps you’ve considered hypnosis to stop smoking.

What Is Stop Smoking Hypnosis?

In researching choices to control the smoking urge, stop smoking hypnosis could be a good course of action for many.  A Hypnotherapist is a person who has received specified training in hypnosis.  This can include instruction on behavior modification, hypnoanalysis, self-actualization and techniques.  When using these in conjunction with stop smoking hypnosis; it can discover the underlying reasons that keep a person addicted and help the patient overcome those.

Stop smoking hypnosis can be done with other forms of assistance to help control the desire for nicotine.  Sometimes it takes a combination of stop smoking hypnosis, nicotine patches or gum, to completely kick the habit.

There are group therapy sessions for stop smoking hypnosis.  These are usually offered in a one day session.  There can be a price discount for this type of stop smoking hypnosis, and clients have varying results.  It can be that some patients have a more difficult time letting go in this setting, and do not allow themselves to relax into a mental state that can be influenced by the hypnosis.

It is also suggested, that the patient have a true desire to quit smoking before attending a stop smoking hypnosis session.  This doesn’t necessarily mean they need to completely stop smoking, just that they truly want to kick the habit.  Many patients that attend a stop smoking hypnosis session do it because their family has requested this.  These patients may not find this works, as their inner self doesn’t really want to change.

A private hypnosis session will include several meetings with a Hypnotherapist.  These sessions generally last about an hour.  In them a patient will be taught techniques that will help control the desire for nicotine.  Additionally, many Hypnotherapists send tapes for the patient to listen to at night which will help reinforce the instructions from the stop smoking hypnosis sessions

Many times, a guarantee is included in the sessions.  If a patient has a relapse, extra stop smoking hypnosis sessions will be provided by the Hypnotherapist. 

Quitting smoking can be a very difficult task to accomplish.  Discovering tools that are efficient and successful can make the transition to a non-smoker a reality.

Using a Hypnosis Script to guide hypnosis

A hypnosis script is very useful in hypnosis. Although most professionals don’t use them, they’re useful for self-hynosis.

If you’re interested in hypnosis, you should know that while many people still think of hypnosis as a sleep induced state in which the patient is controlled by the hypnotist, it is rather a deep meditative state in which the patient is guided by a hypnotist that follows a hypnosis script that leads from an undesirable behavior to an improved one or helps to resolve painful ailments some physical and others emotional. 

The patient never truly loses control over their own actions; rather their mind is given positive directions to modify an identified problem.  There isn’t any magic; the patient is in control during the entire session.

Hypnosis scripts provide a general guideline that the hypnotists use for a specific situation or issue that the patient is seeking assistance with at the time of the visit.  While most professional hypnotists do not follow the script exactly as it is written, each script provides an informational guide and outline to lead the hypnotist through the specific situation.  Many hypnotherapists can and do write their own scripts but these can be time consuming; using a standard outline and inserting a client specific focus provides quality client care without having the extended workload of writing individualized scripts.

Hypnosis script can also be used for self hypnosis if a client is interested in using self hypnosis practices to resolve a personal issue or conquer an unwanted habit.  Many people choose to utilize the hypnosis scripts written for weight reduction and smoking cessation programs.  There are a wide variety of hypnosis scripts available for free on the internet.  Downloading one of these scripts and then reading the script into a personal recording device will provide a self hypnosis format using the hypnosis script to guide the session.  It is the repeated use of this recording that will encourage the behavior modification or enhancement that is being sought through the hypnosis script.

Often times, hypnosis script is most successful when used in association with a professional visit to a hypnotist.  One a client has experienced the state of hypnosis, it is much easier for them to understand and achieve the trance-like state of hypnosis under their own guidance with the hypnosis script.

What if you could close your eyes and relax, just twice a day, and find that you started to lose weight? If it sounds magical, it’s not. You can lose weight with self-hypnosis, and self-hypnosis is a skill that most people can learn very easily.

There’s nothing complicated about self-hypnosis. It’s just a mind state that you’re already very familiar with, because you slip into this state naturally, whenever you concentrate on something. Your focus of concentration could be a movie, another person, an event, or a task. You’re in this state many times a day.

When you want to use self-hypnosis to lose weight, you induce a light hypnotic trance, and give yourself suggestions. Because you’re in this state of focused attention, your subconscious mind accepts the suggestions. Since your subconscious mind is very powerful, you will begin to act out the suggestions you’ve given yourself.

Suddenly, Your Taste For Fast-Food Vanishes, And You Begin To Exercise

Think of self-hypnosis as if you’re programming a computer. The computer is you, and the suggestions you give yourself in self-hypnosis are the program. You’ll begin to act out your own suggestions. If you suggested to yourself that you eat healthy food and enjoy daily walks, you will find that you lose interest in fast food, and that you feel like walking every day.

There’s no effort needed: you just follow your own desires - the suggestions that you gave yourself.

Have A Hypnosis Session With A Professional Hypnotherapist First

Although self-hypnosis is easy, it’s natural to wonder whether you’re “really hypnotized” when you do it yourself. So have a session with a professional first, so you know how hypnosis feels. The hypnotherapist can teach you some easy self-induction techniques. Most people learn to use self-hypnosis successfully with just a session or two.

Once you’ve learned the skill of self-hypnosis, you can use it in many ways for self-improvement, to develop better relationships, and even to improve your finances.

Hypnosis slaves: is hypnosis dangerous if misused?

March 19th, 2007    Subscribe To Our Feed

There’s a lot of misinformation about hypnosis. The idea of “hypnosis slaves” is silly.

A Hypnosis Slave Follows the Directions of a Master…

Hypnosis can be a great tool for behavior modification in the proper circumstances according to the proponents of this treatment. A hypnosis slave could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the behavior that is affected by the hypnosis. Many people go to a professional hypnotist to quit smoking. This habit is accompanied by an addiction in smokers, and this habit is extremely hard to break. A hypnotist that works with a client to modify this behavior is appreciated greatly by most successful clients. If the client is a hypnosis slave in this instance, this is a good outcome.

Hypnosis can also be used by skilled professionals to help people overcome an addiction to alcohol. These behavior modifications could save a client from many unwanted behaviors that result from a habit. People who consume alcohol and then drive a car could be a danger to themselves and others. This person could work with a hypnotist to overcome the bad behavior formed over a number of years. If the hypnosis works and the client becomes a hypnosis slave, that is an excellent outcome to the steps taken to help the client.

A Hypnosis Slave Probably Will not Make Mistakes because of the Hypnosis

There is information that people will not do anything while under the influence of a hypnotist that they would not want to do. If they go to a hypnotist to quit smoking, it is something that they want to do. If they go to a hypnotist to lose weight, they will modify their behavior so they lose weight. In other words, hypnotism will produce favorable outcomes for the clients of a hypnotist. People do not have to worry that they will come under evil forces when hypnotized. A hypnosis slave will not clean someone’s bathroom if they do not want to do that.

Hypnosis can be a very effective tool for behavior modification. Those people who have developed unwanted habits should consider working with a professional hypnotist to modify their behavior. People should investigate the possibilities in their community to find the best possible services. A good hypnotist will cost some money, but these professionals will probably save their clients money on cigarettes, chocolates or alcohol. They will not have to worry about becoming a hypnosis slave and do inappropriate things if they work with a reputable professional. Hypnosis should produce only favorable results.

Is there such a thing as “instant” hypnosis? In a sense yes. Hypnosis is a mind state, and if you learn self-hypnosis, you can give yourself suggestions to enter that mind state again at a later time. For example, you might be facing an examination, and in a pre-exam hypnosis session, could suggest to yourself (or have a hypnotherapist suggest to you) that when you enter the exam room you will be completely alert, but relaxed, and that you would remember everything that you’d learned.

Treatment Through Instant Hypnosis

Even though hypnosis is an ancient practice, many of us would not consider it as a therapy because we feel vulnerable and unsafe putting the power to control our minds and senses in the hands of the hypnotist. Hypnosis is being associated with magicians and therefore it is hard for some to believe that it also has some extraordinary healing powers.

Hypnosis in an induced state of mind through the power of suggestion and can help greatly with stress relief, quitting bad habits, weight issues and temporary pain relief. However, the patient must be committed to the process in order for it to have any effect. In other words, the patient must believe in the state of hypnosis.

The Instant Hypnosis Approach

It is hard for many to believe that your own mind can provide you with pain relief or the treatment to what seems to you an impossible task to achieve, such as quitting smoking. So, even if we want to believe in hypnosis, our minds may not allow us to relax completely and benefit from the treatment. Hypnotists are used to such patients and they have another way to deal with them, which is called instant hypnosis.

Instant hypnosis will bring you in the hypnotic state of mind without you having the time to ponder over it and dwell in the thoughts of disbelieving the treatment. This is an important factor, because the mind is what initially controls our thoughts. Instant hypnosis can only be performed by professionals who have mastered the art of hypnosis and have the consent of the patient.

The Effects of Instant Hypnosis

Instant hypnosis will provide the same results that you are looking for with the only difference being that it will get you in the hypnotic state faster and almost without you realizing it, which is what many patients desire.
