Hypnosis and weight control

I utilize hypnosis and NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) when working with my weight control clients. I am conducting a series of weight loss group hypnosis sessions in Atlanta, GA.

We meet twice a month and have a full hypnosis session, just like the ones I have with my private session clients.

The next session is February 26th.

Your Mind and your Weight

As anyone who has dieted knows, diets don't work long term. There are literally hundreds perhaps even thousands of diets. Many of these diets offer magical results. Five and more pounds per week of weight loss is an unrealistic and in most cases an unhealthy, unsustainable amount of weight to lose.
The real goal is not just to lose the weight, it is to change how you think about food and the reasons behind any negative behavior or thought about food and yourself. Unhealthy negative behaviors are the result of lifelong programming. Until denial is overcome and the emotional pain is conquered no diet will be a permanent fix. In fact if you have a problem and do nothing about it, it most certainly will become worse due to the programming effect of repetition.

Change your thinking change your life!

Anyone who has read or seen "The Secret" has now become more aware of this fact. So how does the average person go about changing their thinking? Obviously it would be nearly impossible to do this consciously.
The best ways to connect to the subconscious is by using the imagination. By creating an internal representation of the change you want to have in your life, visualizing it, verbalizing it and repeating it often, you will change your thoughts and beliefs about the object of your desire. You'll go from " I wish I could" to "I can"!
I see this happen with my clients everyday. Usually we start to make any change in behavior by first letting go of the past. Negative thoughts/beliefs, behaviors and habits are the first things to go. We are then free to create and integrate new more positive ways of thinking and behaving. This creates incredible energy for change.
