How Can Hypnotherapy Help You Lose Weight?

Have you tried countless fad diets? Do you have an expensive gym membership that you never use? Are you tired of restricting your calories and not seeing results? Hypnotherapy may be a more effective and efficient way to achieve weight loss than dieting techniques and exercise alone. Focused Hypnosis offers weight loss hypnotherapy services in Sheffield, which will help you take control of your weight loss journey and make healthier, long-lasting life choices. We work with you to help you understand your body and change your relationship with food and exercise. Our Sheffield weight loss services address the underlying psychological or emotional reasons behind your binge eating, unbalanced diet, lack of exercise and help you think more positively about weight loss.

How Does Weight Loss Hypnotherapy Work?

Weight loss hypnotherapy is a complementary treatment that uses hypnosis to influence your mind to change bad dietary choices, such as binge eating and not exercising, to help you achieve your goal weight. At Focused Hypnosis, we look at the process of weight and work with you to tackle the thoughts and feelings that trigger the bad habits that lead to weight gain. We achieve hypnosis with the help of a qualified weight loss hypnotherapist, who will use guided relaxation methods to lull you into a trance-like state successfully. Once you are under hypnosis, you should reach a heightened focus and awareness where you become more susceptible to suggestion. We help you tap into your drive and determination, enabling you to make beneficial diet and exercise health choices.

What to Expect from a Hypnotherapy Weight Loss Session?

At Focused Hypnosis, your first session will begin with your hypnotherapist explaining how hypnosis works. After that, you’ll agree on the methods that your hypnotherapist will use and have a conversation about your goals: are you tackling a bad relationship with food, overcoming anxiety surrounding exercising, or do you want to lose weight? 

Then, the hypnotherapist may:

• Use guided relaxation techniques to help you achieve a deeply relaxed state of mind and body;
• Use your agreed method to achieve your goal. For example, advising that binge eating is detrimental to your health and causing weight gain, so you should be encouraged to stop;
• To conclude the session, your hypnotherapist will gradually bring you out of your trance-like state.

Why are you Overweight?

Comfort Eating

We should always eat to satisfy hunger, but many of us turn to unhealthy food for comfort, stress relief, or to award ourselves. So, you might reach for a pint of ice cream when you’re feeling upset or order a takeaway when you’re feeling stressed. Initially, comfort eating makes you feel better because it masks your emotional distress. Eventually, it will make you feel even worse because the original emotions still remain, and you also feel guilty about binge eating.

Not Enough Exercise

We all feel unmotivated sometimes and skip a workout. However, if you consistently fail to exercise, you will gain weight, as when you do not use up all the energy provided by the food you consume, it gets stored by your body as fat.

Bad Diets 

Weight gain can happen gradually over time if you have an unbalanced diet. Junk food, sweet treats, and alcohol are fine in moderation, but they are high in fat and sugar. So, if you consume them repeatedly, you will gain weight, which will have a negative impact on your physical and mental health.

Dieting 

Sometimes, dieting programmes can make you gain weight. Particularly if you partake in yo-yo dieting, where you quickly lose weight and then unintentionally regain it because you cannot sustain such an intense weight loss plan.
