Eating and weight issues Hypnosis and relaxation are very effective tools for dealing with the complex issues surrounding eating and weight. Unlike with stopping smoking we have to eat in order to stay healthy, so tackling problems pertaining to food usually involves an extended period of time and each case is complicated and unique. People may be concerned with losing or gaining weight or their attitude towards food. Hypnotherapy provides a different approach from the diet/binge-eating cycle and is concerned with taking an honest, non-judgemental look at why you do what you do. The next task is to work at formulating a way of living, which encompasses a more comfortable attitude towards eating and the complex issues surrounding it. Awareness about why you do what you do when you do it takes time to develop, so dealing effectively with this type of problem nearly always takes an extended time. Unravelling our motivations is hard and painful work. Take heart, however, we all have amazing resources within ourselves; if you want to sort it out it is very likely you will do so. I work hard to promote an encouraging environment so you can feel comfortable exploring underlying issues of identity, fear of rejection, etc., human experiences common to us all. Through patience (especially your patience with yourself) and openness you will begin to work out some of your motivations for your actions. This clears the way forward so that you can work out what to do next. |
