Weight Loss/H.O.W.

HYPNOTHERAPY. OVER. WEIGHT. is a comprehensive, individualized and practical approach to renewing your commitment to your health. This is far more than an exercise/food plan. What sets this apart from other methids is the internal motivation that comes from hypnotherapeutic support. What sets this apart from hypno-weight loss seminars is the affordable pay as you go pricing you having had a hand in building the mechanism. This ensures that the results are not only immediate, but permanent!

Hypnotherapy & Weight Loss

The annual cycle has a tendancy to work like this- The holidays are gone, Winter will soon become Spring and for those of you who haven’t done so already, it’s time to completely flip out about taking most of your clothes off in public in a few months! The freedom of sweaters and sweatpants yields to the unnerving vulnerability of warm weather attire, exposed limbs and midriffs and the dreadful possibility that some maniac may ask you to swim.

And right on queue, here come the discounted gym membership commercials, the fad diets and the quick fix promises that we see every January. While balancing on one leg with a lemon in each hand and facing West led to no weight loss whatsoever, it did lead to a series of deep conversations with the wife.

There’s a reason billions in profits are forecast for the weight loss industry each year. Some of us are pinioned between our emotional associations surrounding food and our vanity. But why does this continue to happen to us every single year? We all recognize the pattern, right?

Wrong. The focus is always diet and exercise. We begin by making a plan. No sugar, no simple carbs, nothing fried, juicing, fasting, walking, running, lifting… Here’s the thing though, it’s not the food. It’s never the food. It’s our associations with the foods we eat that drive our eating habits. So how do we change these associations? It’s a complex issue, but at its core, it’s about changing neural pathways. Developing new responses to the same triggers. Hypnotherapy is the best and safest tool on the market, bar none.

Ok, I know, here we go again, right? Another hypnotherapist promising to effortlessly wash away years of indulgence with a few simple words. What’s better than that? I’ll sit in a comfortable recliner for a bit, have a few pearls of wisdom uploaded into the old noggin and then, I’ll emerge, craving celery juice and crunches! If only.

Yes, there are hypnotherapy based seminars that promise quick results. Four hours in and you’ll walk out hating pizza and french fries. These seminars can be effective for some, but most people who lose in excess of thirty pounds in this manner gain it all back and more, within the next two years. After interviewing dozens of attendees and facilitators of seminars, the consensus is that clients need to drive the effort behind the transformation. This is the only way to ensure a lasting change.

First of all, we need to kick that deprivation mind set to the curb. Hypnotherapy makes it easier to feel the freedom of a lifestyle based on caring for ourselves in both body and mind. Yes, you may lose most of your jarred queso dip, but the increased energy, vitality and confidence you’ll gain is extremely empowering.

At Blackbird Hypnosis, we use a system that we’ve come to call H.O.W. (Hypnotherapy Over Weight). Eight weekly sessions and we cover causality, meals, movement/exercise, all supported by a CMHt. There’s a monthly group available, whether you’re enrolled in H.O.W., or not. I ask for commitment, I expect my clients to do the homework and I support all of their efforts with tailored suggestions designed to instill joy and confidence.

The synergy of hypnotic suggestion and the personal empowerment of clients manifesting a healthy lifestyle creates a team. Witnessing this transformative process is humbling. Watching people take personal ownership of their well being and thrive, seeing the physical metamorphosis, it’s simply awe inspiring. Yes, I’m biased, but I’ve also had the privilege of watching people stand up and change. Through hypnotherapy, I have the honor of helping them along the way. And yes, part of this is effortless- the support of your own subconscious mind. Once hypnotherapy unlocks and harnesses this power, it’s automatic. Your tendencies change, your decisions change and then, your life will change.
