Is Weight Loss Self Hypnosis Really Practical?

There is nothing as strong as the power of the imagination; it is actually more powerful than your will-power. You could be having the strongest will-power to attain your weight loss goals. However, if you continue seeing yourself as an obese or overweight person, if you continue harboring sub-conscious fears of losing weight, or if you have this incessant feeling deep inside you that says you cannot make it, rest assured you will be fighting a losing battle. Why? Because despite the very best intentions that you could be having, your own subconscious is calling the shots.

Weight loss self hypnosis however, enables you to partner with your subconscious by controlling your beliefs and thoughts. When you are hypnotized, you are able to neutralize all negative feelings and images that you could be having and replace them with positive images and feelings of success. Weight loss self hypnosis allows you to create a strong mental foundation that is needed to help lose weight and keep it off completely.

Keep in mind though that hypnosis for weight loss does not guarantee that you will shed a certain number of pounds in a given period of time. However, what it does guarantee is that you have a free and readily available tool which you can utilize to get rid of the underlying negative feelings and beliefs and replace them with strong positive feelings of success. This therefore creates the easiest path towards successful weight loss.

Weight loss self hypnosis is simply a matter of hyper-focusing on the one issue that is troubling you, your weight. This you do by stepping out of your conscious mind and putting all your focus and attention on your subconscious mind. This conscious mind is that part of your brain that constantly criticizes and evaluates the things happening around you. Sidestepping this conscious mind is achieved through a deeply relaxed trance state. Once you manage to put aside this conscious mind, you will be able to communicate directly to your subconscious mind. You will be able to successfully plant suggestions and because the conscious mind will be busy, it will not be able to evaluate and criticize the suggestions.

The reasons why weight loss self hypnosis works is because during this relaxed state of mind when your mind is open for suggestion, you will be able to feed it with positive affirmations and suggestions that can easily be effected. What happens when you have a strong belief in something? You will definitely act on it. So if you have this strong belief that 'I will only eat that whole bread when I am physically hungry?" You will not eat until the time you start to feel hunger pangs in your stomach. The pounds will start to drop off naturally.

With that being said, while weight loss self hypnosis does offer great weight-loss benefits, it should never be used as the only weight loss strategy. It can never take the place of a healthy diet and regular workouts. Just because you are practicing hypnotherapy for weight loss doesn’t mean you should eat whatever comes your way and sleep on the couch all day long waiting for your therapy session. Only by complementing weight loss self hypnosis with other natural weight loss remedies will you be able to succeed in not only shedding the pounds but keeping them off completely.
