Issues with Eating, Weight Loss & Dieting - The Hypnosis Clinic

Hypnotherapy for weight loss is not about dieting. Its about giving you control of your eating. Without any conscious effort you will begin to eat less, put less food on your plate. You will notice that you no longer continually snack or graze.

Hypnotherapy will address the psychological reasons that you eat. Diets are fatiguing, food is always on your mind, hypnotherapy will mean intrinsically without conscious effort you reduce your calorie intake.

For control of eating habits using Hypnotherapy in London and Essex,  Dr James Rutherford operates his practice out of the The Joseph Clinic, South Woodford and Saffron Walden.

Quote  "inside 10 days I had stopped eating junk food, began leaving food on the plate, could be tempted to eat and drink and say no..... and now I have lost 7 lbs...."

Hypnotherapy is about taking back control and being relaxed, calm and confident in your the way you react and behave in the presence of food. It addresses the psychological reasons you eat.

Diets are hard work, your mind is always preoccupied with food and eating. Plus you loose weight then put it all back on.

Eating habits can be readily changed if it is just continual snacking, grazing or looking in the fridge. Chocolate or cheese addiction,  too many potatoes or crisps.  Hypnotherapy gives intrinsic control to stop.  

Fasting, Binge eating followed by making yourself ill require control and learning to relax, taking away the need to distract yourself from unpleasant memories or jibes about your weight by continuous fasting or binge eating then making yourself ill. hypnotherapy is ideally suited to this.

Weight Loss we don't do diets they are a short term fix, life style has to change for control of eating and weight loss to be permanent.  Control has to be established and the reason for overeating treated.

The best way to control your weight is to reduce the total number of calories you take in and to be more physically active. Long-term success is not about finding the "right" diet. It's about identifying your behaviors that have contributed to taking in more calories than your body needs. It is also about making a plan to develop healthier eating and physical activity habits. For example, you may eat when you're under stress rather than when you're hungry. Choosing another activity to do when you feel stressed, such as taking a walk, may help you break the habit of eating at those times.

You're more likely to make changes in your habits if you set a specific goal for yourself. For example, instead of saying, "I'm going to lose 20 pounds," decide that you'll be more active every other day of the week. Be specific about what kind of activity you'll do and which days you'll do it. Your new goal might be: "During my lunch hour on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, I'm going to walk for half an hour in the park." Once your new healthy behavior becomes a habit, you can move on to another goal.

Why is physical activity a big deal?

Physical activity builds muscles, so even if you don't lose pounds, you will look and feel better when you are more active. Being active also reduces your risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes, even if you are overweight.
