Hypnotherapy Wins Where Diets Fail
Why does Hypnotherapy work so well for weight control?

Just the mere word 'diet' implies something you do temporarily. You diet against your normal eating patterns which are controlled by your unconscious mind. You may lose weight, but it is usually only temporary. As soon as you stop dieting, your old eating habits and beliefs return again and your body goes back to what it was doing before the diet.

Your unconscious mind holds all your beliefs and habits concerning food. These are beliefs and habits you may not even be aware you have, and it is these that keep the weight on your body.

Your unconscious mind is very powerful, so no matter how hard you try to break a habit at a conscious level of mind, the unconscious will always win, eventually causing you to go back to what it considers 'normal' behaviour for you.

Through hypnosis, we can speak directly to your unconscious mind and speed up the process of change by altering your negative beliefs and habits. And even though your unconscious mind is more powerful than your conscious mind, it readily accepts new information when you bypass what we call the Critical Factor, which is what happens during hypnosis.

As you can see, in order to make true, permanent changes in your life, it is necessary to get your unconscious mind in agreement with what you want to accomplish, rather than fighting and struggling to work against it.

Regular hypnotic support is the perfect way to build more healthy eating patterns and maintain high motivation, and is the key to the truly remarkable results possible with hypnotherapy. Hypnosis will have you WANTING to eat the right kinds of foods, WANTING to drink more water, WANTING to exercise. Put yourself on a mental diet and start losing weight automatically.

Weight is usually a symptom of an underlying issue. In hypnotherapy we can address these issues.

Common Weight Related Issues:

• Emotional issues
  
• False body image
• Negative thinking
• Early childhood habits
• Improper nutrition (are you a fast food junkie?)
• Information overload; What food is good/bad for me? What should I count? Carbohydrates? Fats? Protein? Calories?
• Lack of motivation to exercise
• Not drinking enough water
• Snacking
• Eating too quickly
• Eating late
• Skipping meals
• Binge eating
• How much should I weigh?

Examples of some of the benefits you can expect to gain:

Remove your desire to over eat Healthy eating Form a positive self image Avoiding certain foods Produces stronger feelings of inner strength and determination Reduce your stress level Love to exercise regularly
Improve your feel-good factor, confidence and positive thinking Occasionally weight gain can be caused by a past event; uncovering and healing this can help There can sometimes be a unconscious reason why you stay fat, Hypnosis can replace weight gain with something far more healthy

Start Transforming Your Thoughts, Feelings and Behaviour Around Food and Exercise Now

I am a professional fully qualified and experienced Advanced Hypnotherapist, Life Coach and a Licensed NLP Master Practitioner. I was trained by Paul McKenna, and by Dr Richard Bandler - the creator of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). I combine all my skills and experience to produce a treatment that is tailored to your needs. So that I can help you to control your weight in the most effortless ways possible.

The treatment combines Hypnotherapy and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) which are both individually recognised as highly successful ways of changing peoples behaviours and perceptions. So I'm sure you can imagine the amazing benefits of combining these two powerful techniques, allowing you to quickly and easily change the thoughts and behaviours you currently have surrounding eating and losing weight. Willpower becomes unnecessary as you just find yourself changing in beneficial ways.

Each session lasts 1 hour (see the consultation fees page for prices and discounts.)

Additional 'motivational' sessions can be booked if needed.

Group Discounts

A group weight loss programme consisting of four 1 hour sessions is available at a considerable discount. Why not attend with friends, collegues or family members and reduce the cost even more.

Group bookings require payment in full before the start of the first session and a £50 deposit per person at the time of booking.

Upcoming Workshops

Why not enquire about the next full day weight management workshop.

Booking is easy

NOTE: Before booking it is very important that you get your symptoms diagnosed by a medical practitioner or doctor, as weight gain may also be a symptom of a physical condition.

I recommend booking an Initial Consultation/Assessment Session first. This gives us the chance to begin to explore your issues and your requirements further and give you honest answers to any questions.

Only book if you have the following attitudes and expectations:

• You are interested in improving yourself and your quality of life.
• You have realistic expectations about your rate of weight loss. It does physically take time and a little conscious effort to lose weight. The weight simply cannot just physically disappear overnight, no matter how much you would like it to. Up to 2 pounds (1 kilo) per week is usually considered a healthy rate of weight loss. Most people will take more than 2 months to lose 16 pounds (8 kilos).
• You are realistic about personal change and are not expecting a no effort 'instant fix' or 'magic cure' of a lifetimes worth of problems in a session or two. The process of personal change is effective but it is usually gradual. It does take time and some conscious effort to change your thoughts about food.
• You realise hypnotherapy is not something 'done' to you 'while-u-wait' but requires that you be actively involved in the process.
• You are prepared to work cooperatively with the therapist to work through your issues.
• You are prepared to invest some of your time and energy into changing yourself. In return for a little effort over a few weeks, you get to look and feel much better for the rest of your life.

How to book: When you are ready to make the inner changes you need to control your eating and achieve the life you want, simply or phone me on 0161 881 4333 to make an appointment now.

Location: I practice both from a consulting room in my home in Chorlton in South Manchester, and from a clinic on Harley Street, London. If you can't travel to me then I am also available for online therapy, counselling and coaching via Skype.
