Maybe the boss yelled at you, your car stalled or the kids are complaining. All your good eating plans come crashing to a halt. Does this sound familiar? The top three reasons women get the urge to cave in to their cravings are: Financial Distress Work Related Stress Relationship Challenges Right at that exact moment, food can seem to be comforting…almost like a friend who understands and sympathizes with you. Later on, it’s a different story. You may end up kicking yourself for caving in. Why does this happen? For one thing, it’s habitual. You may reach for food out of habit. Perhaps you learned it by watching your mother. It’s also a common theme in movies. When the girl gets dumped, she reaches for ice cream. Not just a small bowl either. She always goes for the entire carton of ice cream. Another reason is procrastination. Yes, you read that right. Procrastination. We use eating as a distraction from thinking about our problems. And we use it as an excuse not to do something we don’t want to do. “I’ll do it after I eat.” The Birthday Cake Syndrome As a child, you likely had a party each year on your birthday. What do they serve at a party? Cake and ice cream. How did you feel at your birthday party? You probably felt great! It was a happy day. All your friends were there and they brought presents just for you. Then what did you do? At the height of the party, when you are feeling really special…they serve cake and ice cream. Your subconscious mind connects the two. Ice Cream + Cake = Happiness Now it all makes sense! We are trying to recreate that feeling of happiness when we reach for something sweet. So how do you gain control of emotional eating? Use self hypnosis to reprogram your subconscious mind. Consciously, you are aware that you want to lose weight. You even know exactly how to do it. Just eat less, right? Yet, it doesn’t always happen that easily. When you change your thinking about food, you’ll stop using it to deal with all the stress in your life. Instead, you’ll begin to develop the habits of a naturally slender woman. Keep in mind that this is something you can do by yourself, though some find quicker results with a recorded audio by a skilled hypnosis professional. 1.
