Therapy and Coaching for Lasting Change

"I've been on a constant diet for over two decades

and lost 789 pounds. By all accounts I should be

hanging from a charm bracelet!"

The simple truth is that calories consumed minus calories burned equals either weight loss, weight gain or no change. It's not complicated so why do so many people find it so hard to do something which is, in theory, so easy?

The more complex truth is that the relationship you have with food has been programmed into your subconscious mind and if you eat when you are not hungry, then all the other reasons you are feeding yourself have become part of this programming. Furthermore, if the associations in your subconscious mind about diets or dieting include misery, guilt, deprivation and failure, then you can expect more of the same if you start another diet.

So what can you do? If what you have tried in the past hasn’t worked, you need to do something different.

Hypnotherapy is an extremely effective vehicle for “re-programming” the subconscious mind to allow you to change your relationship with food and I have helped many people lose unwanted kilos. In August 2005, Australian reporter for the ABC TV science programme “Catalyst”, Paul Willis, put hypnosis to the test himself for weight loss and found it easy to lose 5 kilos in a month. Indeed, since the broadcast of this particular programme on the ABC, many of my Australian colleagues and I are experiencing a noticeable increase in the number of enquiries we receive for hypnotherapy in general and about hypnosis for weight loss in particular.
