Super Fitness Health BlogMotivation Is Yours With Weight Loss Hypnotherapy CDs
With frosty, wintry days ahead for many of us, the prospect of braving the elements to get to the gym or go for a jog doesn’t sound too engaging. Finding the motivation to adhere to your weight loss goals when everyone else wants to hibernate is painless with self hypnosis for weight loss.
Most us who want to lose weight agree that motivation is especially challenging when the weather changes, so what if you could stay dedicated to your exercise plan and diet just by watching a self-hypnosis weight loss DVD or listening to a CD? Even better, a self hypnosis weight loss program can decrease your compulsions too.
Self-hypnosis for weight loss works simply, but effectively, by leading you to a state of deep relaxation during which your unconscious mind can more readily accept post-hypnotic suggestions, such as the ones that will keep you motivated to keep on your fitness track, even in the midst of winter.
It is a known fact that if a person exercises, it will speed up his/her metabolism and amplify the rate that weight is dropped. Some of the most successful hypnosis exercise motivation techniques comes from Neuro-Linguistic Programming, or NLP. With NLP, the unconscious is programmed to use the very same thought processes that are creating a problem, to do away with it. Said another way, the same thought processes that the unconscious utilizes to create cravings and oral compulsions could be used to completely stop them! And similarly, the same processes can be used to increase your motivation to exercise.
Anchoring is an NLP method that can be used to give you a “switch” for triggering feelings and behaviors. Creating a hypnosis weight loss anchor works simply and effectively like this: A qualified hypnotherapy weight loss practitioner will safely guide you into a tranquil hypnotic state. Then the hypnotherapist will ask you to identify a time when you were happy and excited about anything in your life.
The goal of this exercise is to remember and re-experience as many sensations as you are able to from various times in your life when you felt motivated and eager to do anything you wanted to. Then, the hypnotherapist will ask you to anchor those feelings by simply touching two fingers together.
Next, you will be asked to imagine yourself working out and enjoying it. As you make this mental image, you’ll trigger your anchor by touching those two fingers together again. When you complete this action, your unconscious mind will connect the feeling of eagerness and excitement from the other memory to the thought of exercising.
From this point on, any time you need to feel motivated to exercise, you can simply trigger your anchor and re-experience those same encouraging feelings that will motivate you to workout. NLP and weight loss hypnosis can even be helpful to dissuade behaviors, so you can easily overcome cravings. That sounds much easier and encouraging than beating yourself up for missing a workout or giving into temptation, doesn’t it?
A successful hypnosis for weight loss program will also deal with the root cause of weight gain for many of us, namely a lack of self-esteem. In a relaxed state, you can receive post-hypnotic suggestions that will build your self-esteem as you lose more weight. The lack of self-esteem is a big reason for being overweight.
A lot of people wonder if, after attempting every fad diet and buying every piece of exercise equipment on the market, something as straight forward as weight loss hypnosis can help them. The good news is that experts have found that all normal people are hypnotizable to a greater or lesser extent. However, it is important to note that people who have less than a 70 I.Q. or those who are in an active state of psychosis or with senility usually are not hypnotizable.
But for the rest of us, hypnotism for weight loss can actually make us look forward to exercising and eating healthily. That said, the key proponent for success in any fitness plan, whether it embraces weight loss hypnosis or not, is wanting to reach your weight loss goals.
On a related note, that is precisely why you can not force someone to undergo weight loss hypnotherapy simply by giving them suggestions. If someone is against an idea, no amount of weight loss hypnosis they hear or see will be effective. Looking to the NLP explanation above, if someone does not have a memory of feeling positive or motivated, they can still be successful with hypnotherapy and NLP because they can envision what it would feel like if they felt that way, and anchor those imagined feelings.
So, if you are like many of us and find your enthusiasm diminishing as the temperatures drop and the days get darker, weight loss hypnosis can help regain (or maintain) your passion for carrying out and finally reaching your fitness goals.
