Weight Loss

…clients who learned self-hypnosis lost twice as much weight as those who didn’t.

Studies reported in the Journal of Clinical Psychology and the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology showed hypnosis to be an effective tool in losing weight and keeping it off.” – Cox News Service
Without a doubt, weight loss through the use of hypnotism is one of the most difficult yet satisfying segments of work for a hypnotist. Just putting a person into hypnosis and telling them they will become slim, trim and attractive can work in rare cases but it usually requires much more than that.

Generally, achieving and maintaining normal weight loss is a constant battle for a great percentage of our population. Currently, 64.5% of US adults over 20 years of age are overweight and 30.5% are considered obese. Many of us find a feeling of security in the eating process (emotional eating). “Yo-Yo” dieting can also affect an individual’s metabolism and eating habits.

Helping a person to obtain a normal weight with hypnotism is not extremely difficult for the well-trained hypnotist. Unless the person’s overweight condition is related to a medical problem, hypnosis therapies are very successful when the hypnotist knows how to match the correct technique to each client. (As individuals, we are not all the same and that is why the success rate for group hypnosis weight control programs alone is extremely small.)

A skilled hypnotist is trained in many hypnotic approaches and will be able to match you to the most successful approach that will give you the greatest success. Benefits of individualized sessions include helping clients become more calm and in control of their eating choices. Individuals notice that they stop watching the scale and start choosing activities and food that help speed up their metabolism. The mind’s normal internal chit chat between “what to do and what not to do” is replaced with healthy attitudes the help making the correct choices seem automatic and natural.

Depending on the amount of weight you have to lose, goals can be meet with 3 to 14 hypnosis sessions which may also be supported by group sessions and take home self hypnosis CD’s.

Besides individual sessions, Summit Hypnosis Centers offers the two following weight loss programs for individuals wanting to lose a significant amount of weight.
