What is self hypnosis
Can you lose weight or gain weight through hypnosis? Is hypnotism dangerous?
Does hypnotism really works?
If you are reading this article, then you will probably have pondered
over the above questions. Hypnosis not only can help you to lose or gain
weight, it can help you to achieve many other benefits such as quitting
smoking, attract good health, develop positive thinking, eliminating bad
habits and a host of other benefits.
How does hypnosis work?
Most people have unfounded fears about being a subject of hypnotism. These
irrational fears are usually perpetrated by Hollywood movies and TV cartoons
showing evil hypnotists putting the heroes into a zombie like state and under
the control of the hypnotist. This is absolute nonsense.
So how does hypnotism work? You see, in our consciousness, we act
through our conscious and subconscious mind. Our conscious mind recalls things
which are stored in our subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is a huge
data base storage of past events and experiences.
Experiences stored there may be correct information at that time when it
was embedded into the subconscious, however, events and situations may have
changed to render that bit of information irrelevant or even limiting what you
can do or achieve, like losing
weight or gaining weight.
How to use self hypnosis to lose or gain weight
Let us take for example that your family members and yourself are overweight
and since young, you have been hearing your parents grumbling on numerous
occasions that no matter what they do, they can't seem to lose those extra
weight and that it must be a genetic factor.
These comments were then embedded into your sub-conscious mind and
today, when someone ask you to lose weight, your brain instinctively reacted
by telling you that losing weight for you is not possible because you are
genetically programed to be fat and that no matter what you do, those extra
weight will not come off.
Guess what? Of course you will not lose weight because you will think
that your weight loss effort will be futile and therefore will not even
attempt to lose weight or after a half hearted attempt, you gave up. So, your
limiting belief is sabotaging your weight loss effort.
This same analogy can also be applied to people who are thin and who
want to gain weight. There are many other situations that hypnosis can help
because of limiting beliefs such as "I can never be rich because I did not
finish college" or "I find it hard to attract love because I am ugly".
Most of the time, people are not even aware that they are sabotaging
themselves with their own limiting beliefs. This is where hypnotism comes in.
When you are in a hypnotic state, you are actually in a very relaxed frame of
mind. Unlike popular beliefs, you are still conscious of what is going on and
you can get up and walk away immediately if you wanted to.
You are never in the control of the hypnotist therapist. You are put
into a very relaxed state, so that your conscious mind is not so active and
the hypnotist can suggest new positive messages into your subconscious mind.
That means that your therapist will help you to erase negative limiting
beliefs from your sub-conscious mind and suggest positive beliefs into it
like, it is possible for you to lose or gain weight and motivate you to do
something about your weight or other problems such as quitting smoking.
Now that you are convinced that hypnosis is a valuable tool to improve
and enhance your life, there is still a problem. It can get pretty expensive
because one session with a hypnotist is usually not enough to erase the
limiting beliefs which you have thought to be true for so many years.
Furthermore, there probably are more than one such beliefs and your therapist
will have to find them, eradicate them and the replace them with new positive
beliefs. Now hypnotists charge their fees by the hour and this can take a
heavy toll on your pocket.
However, the overwhelming costs can be offset by performing self
hypnosis. No, you need not be an expert to perform self hypnotism. All you
need to do is to get hypnotism CDs or MP3s programs made to remedy your
problems. Then you just lie down on your bed, turn on the CDs or MP3s, close
your eyes and you will have a hypno-therapist right in your bedroom.
Can you lose weight of gain weight through self hypnosis? Well, you
certainly can because if you say that you can't, then it is your limiting
beliefs at work again, isn't it?
