Could hypnosis be the magic bullet cure for overweight people who want to lose the fat? Find out all about it in this article.
You've tried all the fad diets, you joined the gym and tried going but you still can't shift the weight. Could hypnosis be the answer?
We've long been humored by stage hypnosis acts where a person acts all goofy. But despite the entertainment, if you can really command someone to do something then surely you should be able to just tell them to lose weight and, hey presto, the fat will come rolling off?
Hypnosis or, more accurately, hypnotherapy can be effective for some people who want to lose weight. But we must first understand how it works.
How Does Hypnosis For Weight Loss Work?
The reason that people are overweight is not because they lead a sedentary lifestyle. It's simply because they have a desire to eat more than so-called "normal" people. When our bodies feel full then we are supposed to stop eating.
But for an overweight person, when they feel full and are no longer hungry, the continue to eat. Why? They do it for pleasure only and not for any other reason. For many overweight people, this is one of the few pleasures that they can get.
Hypnosis is useful because it resets a person's relationship with food. Food is supposed to taste good, that's what kept us alive for thousands of years - a hunger to go out and get food to satisfy the hunger with. But once you are no longer hungry then you should stop eating.
How Successful Is Hypnosis?
Most patients needs a few sessions of hypnosis for it to have an effect. Many people report that they can start to lose weight straight away.
Unfortunately, in the long term, most patients will go back to their old habits. Although they were "taught" how to treat their food, ultimately they did not make the decision for themselves to treat food as it should be treated and they slip back into old ways of eating too much.
