Hypnosis Weight Loss Programs

Losing Weight With Self Hypnosis
I have been curious about any kind of hypnosis weight loss programs. I am wondering if it really works or not. I know that it deals with another level of our brain - not just thinking but having the power to make us act on it.
I want to know why I emotionally eat and subconsciously sabotage myself and my goals to lose weight. It would be really great if I would be just as excited to go eat fruit instead of cookies or chocolate.
I guess it makes sense that since my addictions to sweets seems to be subconscious, that the cure would be subconscious too? My mom's friend tried for years to lose weight and no diet ever worked. She tried hypnosis and started to finally lose the weight. Still I am afraid to try.
Sherri here: Julie, thanks for sharing your thoughts and concerns about hypnosis for weight loss with me. You are right on target to recognize the power of the subconscious mind. It really can sabotage your success with weight loss.
Self hypnosis works so well exactly because it deals with the subconscious mind. Weight loss has nothing to do with willpower. You can't will yourself to change eating habits if you have that little voice (subconscious mind) saying things like "I can't do it" or "It will never work".
We often don't even realize that we are saying these things to ourselves, so the first step is realization. The next step is to figure out what it is you really want. Finally, reprogram your subconscious mind so that you begin to say positive, useful things to yourself. Things like "It is easy to eat in a healthy way."
Our hypnosis mp3,
Weight Loss Help For Women, does all that for you. (We also have
Weight Loss Help For Men.)
If you are still afraid to try hypnosis, you can read my discussion about
hypnosis fears...and you will discover that there are no harmful side effects to using self hypnosis for weight loss (or anything else either!)
