The universal truth is that a combination of healthy diet and exercise helps in losing weight. There is also one more truth – once people shed some weight, they feel happy about it and then they go back to their old eating and lazing around habits. As you know, habits die hard and most people who lose weight gain it back on after a few months of slimming it out.
For weight loss to be effective, it must be permanent. The person who loses weight must not go back to his old eating habits and must continue exercising. This is where hypnotherapy steps in to ensure that weight loss stays permanent and regular exercising and healthy eating become a habit.
Using hypnotherapy to lose weight is a practice that can alter your conscious state. When you are under hypnosis, you go into a trance and obey the hypnotherapist's commands. You become extremely alert and more open to suggestions. If the hypnotherapist informs you of the dangers of putting on weight and tells you about the benefits of eating healthy and working out regularly, you will take him very seriously. You will listen to him just as you would listen to your doctor.
