Hypnosis and Weight Loss
“The Solution to, “DARN, I’VE GOTTEN FAT”
 As she looked in the mirror and asked, “mirror – mirror on the wall, whose the fairest of them all?” - The ‘little voice’ from within totally surprised her; instead of responding, “you are the fairest of all” – the retort from within said, “Lady, you’ve gotten fat”.
Introduction:
Hello, my name is Polly Humphreys – I’m a Certified Hypnotist and I have a holistically based practice; welcome to my Wellness - Healthy Lifestyle section. What the lady in the mirror doesn’t understand, is that inside of her, is a thin person just waiting to be understood and surface. When you look into the mirror and feel good, your self-esteem grows instead of your waistline. As a Certified Hypnotist who specializes in wellness, I want you to know, I recognize each individual has very unique, specific needs and that ‘one size’ wellness program does NOT fit all. I offer my hypnosis clients no quick fixes; instead, I provide them with hypnosis education and valuable tools that enhance their wellness goals and progress. I help each client quickly get to the (underlying issue), the ‘Root Cause’ of the problem, helping the individual to understand it and release it. By focusing on what you truly want, vs. what you don’t want, you are focusing on the solution; you begin to wonderfully transform your life.
At Alternative Wellness & Beyond, my Wellness and Lifestyle Program (“Journey of Wellness”) is NOT about ‘weight loss’ – it is about assisting you with creating quality, healthy lifestyle changes including behavior modification.
- I help you identify and overcome blocking barriers; you, take necessary action steps that lead to your success.
- Because you decide to have (vs. wish) the characteristics, behaviors and habits of a healthy, fit person - you begin to see images of yourself as that ideal person; you initiate movement in the direction you desire to go.
- Because you think ‘trim thoughts’, you begin to feel and act thinner; you then become this person you to choose to be. As you look in the mirror of self-perception you get to smile back, as you like who you see.
- Since you set free “weight issues”, you no longer focus on the heavy burdens that currently eat at you mentally and physically; you make pleasurable, satisfying changes.
Imagine how nice it will be to eliminate cravings and conquer your unhealthy behaviors. Utilizing the most powerful part of your mind (subconscious mind) and my wellness tools, your healthy vision can become a reality. Picture yourself stepping into a room looking and feeling great – you might even find it amazing, as everyone - finds the new you, surprisingly fantastic. More importantly, you feel great that you have indeed accomplished your goals; your self-esteem is at an all time high. As you glance in the mirror - you absolutely feel and look fantastic.
- This image perception can be yours. Get excited, reclaim what is meaningful and absent in your life.
Elements of Success:
Your desire, beliefs, willingness to commit and preparation planning - are key elements in the success of your wellness journey. The truth is - change begins within. How you act, is how you see yourself. Every successful endeavor first begins in the mind as an idea, desire, vision or suggestion. Good health includes the integration of the mind, body and spirit; what the mind believes, the body is capable of achieving! Together, as ‘partners in wellness’, we will bring harmony, happiness and connection to your mind, body and spirit. Your commitment to your wellness will determine your outcomes.
Weight Gain and Obesity:
A person gains weight when they burn fewer calories than they eat. Genetics can play a part in weight gain as well. Some people are ‘emotional eaters’ – they associate emotions (sad, angry, upset, frustrated, lonely or boredom) with food, needing comfort. The frequency of obesity in America is at an all time high! One might define obesity as an unhealthy excess of body fat; plain and simple - excess body fat, increases the risk of poor health and premature mortality. Despite Americans spending more than $33 billion a year on weight loss products, studies show that America’s obesity epidemic is increasing in all age groups. No child or adult needs to be fat.
Hypnosis:
Hypnosis has been shown to be an effective tool for loosing weight, stopping smoking, etc. The American Medical Association approves of hypnosis and I use this priceless modality because it brings my hypnosis clients - desired, successful outcomes. A person must have the correct, mental attitude – “I like the idea of being healthy, fit and trim; that idea works for me.” The individual with that positive attitude is ready for beneficial change; he/she can successfully make beneficial changes. Hypnosis is an effective tool to motivate you, assisting you with forming new - wonderful, satisfying and lasting changes. Via hypnosis, you can discover and release inner conflicts - blocks, negative behaviors, emotions, and illness. Hypnosis is also very helpful with stopping binge eating. A person does NOT have to be trapped or controlled; they can harness the power of the subconscious mind, eat properly and control or stop this unhealthy eating cycle. Because hypnosis is natural state of mind, it can help you reach your natural weight without feeling or being deprived.
Your subconscious mind houses your thoughts and beliefs, your reality, and habitual behaviors and your imagination as well. Via hypnosis you can quickly gain access to this dominant mind and release underlying, emotional sabotaging conflicts. Your subconscious mind is like the hard-drive on a computer. In hypnosis, you are able to gain access within your subconscious mind to where your current programming is deeply seated; (thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, actions, and habits). Once you identify what is not working for you – you begin to reframe (change) unwanted and unneeded programming currently causing you to sabotage your desires. Because you like the new ideas, you begin to create a new you, an ideal you - the one you choose to see in the mirror.
Because you act according to your beliefs housed in your subconscious mind - for hypnosis to take effect permanently, you must be willing to commit to following through. You must be willing to carry over the new changes you make, doing what is needed to ensure positive perseverance of your new belief changes. This includes changing unhealthy, life-long habits that have become part of who you are so that you can keep the weight off.
Benefits of Hypnosis:
Master your fears and release self-limiting beliefs that have impeded or halted your progress and/or goal accomplishments. There are numerous benefits; some include:
- Changing your thinking (your subconscious programming), stop destructive eating habits and bad behavior.
- Stopping wasting money on weight loss fad products. Get off the merry-go-round of ‘yo-yo’ dieting.
- Getting to underlying cause of your unwanted fat; remove that hidden barrier and become the healthy person you choose to be.
- Feeling fantastic – mentally and physically. It is perfectly ok to feel good about yourself; your creator wants you to be happy.
- Increasing your endurance, doing activities of daily living with greater ease.
- Reaching and maintain your natural weight without feeling or being deprived.
- Liking the person you see as you look in the mirror.
- Turning your dream into a reality; eliminating the negative – focusing on what you want; producing optimistic, lasting results.
Journey of Wellness:
My Wellness and Healthy Lifestyle Program is focused on you taking healthy control of your life resulting in wellness success for the rest of your life. The changes you are making must be made for you, (not for someone else) and you must take full responsibility for your success and your outcomes. If you are not fully committed to making healthy necessary changes for yourself, NO permanent - beneficial changes will occur.
