to equip you with the right knowledge on the basics of Hypno-Band with effective techniques to
stop food addiction with quickly and permanently weight loss, meditation, eat healthy food and
emotional eating suppression.

People had hesitated about hypnosis in the earlier times because of the thought that it contains
evil forces or anything that suggests negativity. It's been related to influencing someone to
commit corruption of any kind. Because of this, people are excited to try it out. However, what
they did not know is that there are a variety of advantages that can be obtained from this
approach when performed correctly and with the aid of the right people.

What Hypnosis Can Treat It can stimulate the functions of a person's body and, among others,
can relieve someone from common sleep and digestive disorders. It can build some harmony in
one's personality and approach to life, too. For one thing, the right hypnotic therapy will put
away one of the things that hinder you from optimizing your procrastination ability.

Hypnosis operates by making the human subconscious focus on something unforgettable or

pleasant to provide the body with rhythm. The body may also adjust to a pattern until it usually
continues on its own. It's also even more shocking to remember that hypnosis is also an effective
weight loss option. But how does one really do it?

Starting out with hypnosis, There are guidelines for hypnosis, which could be very helpful. For
starters, of course, all the requisite training that correlates with the approach will have to be
taken. It should be remembered that while hypnosis offers a person many benefits, it can also
pose dangers when performed in the wrong way and without proper planning. Gathering all
possible hypnosis tips from different sources wouldn't hurt one.

Let’s get started

 Chapter 1 Understanding food addictions
Obesity – Data and Statistics
Weight loss has turned into a noteworthy and over the top factor in today’s society. With the
numerous people following significant name trends to drop dress sizes to fit into the attire scopes
of such fashion icons like Kate Moss, losing weight should be done accurately else you could be
taking a chance with your wellbeing and creating significant issues in the long-run and present
moment.

The step you have to take when losing weight is to examine what you need from it. Planning is a
vital part of losing weight since this is the thing that develops your inspiration. So before
beginning any eating regimen get pen and paper and record a few achievements that you can
effectively accomplish. A decent start is gauging yourself, recording the weight down and
afterward setting week by week targets of 2-3lbs or monthly targets of 8-12lbs.

Practicing doesn't need to be obligatory, however, it can help by accelerating the procedure of
weight loss bringing about a more beneficial methodology if you are working off the muscle
versus fat and keeping your tissues and organs working. So, if you appreciate moving, walking
or running, begin doing this for thirty minutes per day, or take up new leisure activities, for
example, swimming, playing football or notwithstanding playing snooker. If you're not merely
the exercise type or are somewhat unsure about practicing in the open at that point have a go at
utilizing a stepper or a cycling machine in the solace of your own home.

Overall, we get more fit to look great and feel good. The vast majority get more fit in the
springtime, and this is for a few reasons. Right off the bat, after the Christmas period, they may
have gained a couple of pounds that they need to shed because they need to set themselves up for
their mid-year occasions where they will sunbathe on the shoreline in a two-piece or some swim
shorts. The dread of several people seeing you in a semi stripped state will make you need to
look as well as can be expected, so diet and exercise have a noteworthy influence in this.

When all is said and done only the sheer vibe of having the option to fit into garments that you
never figured you could can truly transform you and your persona, and this is why we do it.

Why is it Hard to Control Your Diet?

It appears everybody nowadays is attempting to lose weight. We are modified by our condition
to look, dress, and even act a specific way.
Each time you get a magazine, turn on the TV or check out yourself, you are reminded of it. You
start to hate your body losing control, disappointed, focused on, apprehensive, and now and
again even discouraged.

If losing weight is tied in with eating fewer calories than your body needs and doing some
activity to support your digestion, at that point why are such a significant number of individuals
as yet attempting to lose weight?

Losing weight has to do with your considerations and convictions as much as it has to do with
what you eat. Give me a chance to give you a model. You are staring at the TV, and an
advertisement is shown demonstrating a chocolate cheddar cake that you can make utilizing just
3 fixings. You weren't hungry previously, however, since you have seen that cheddar cake you
might feel denied and you need to eat. Your feelings are revealing to you that you have to eat,
although your stomach isn't disclosing to you that you are hungry.

This is called passionate eating. It is our feelings that trigger our practices.

Although the grapples that I am alluding to around passionate eating are not healthy ones, they
can likewise be utilized intentionally to get a specific outcome.

Enthusiastic eating doesn't happen because you are physically hungry. It occurs because
something triggers a craving for nourishment. You are either intuitively or deliberately covering
a hidden, enthusiastic need.

The fear of eating can assume control over your life. It expends your musings; depleting you of
your vitality and self-discipline, making you separate and gorge. This will create more fear and
make matters more regrettable.

So how might you conquer your fear and different feelings around eating?

You can transform the majority of your feelings around eating into another more beneficial
relationship.

Things never appear to happen as fast as we might want them to...perhaps your body isn't
changing as quickly as you need. This may demoralize you giving you further reason to indulge.

Comprehend that your body is a gift, and afterward, you will begin to contemplate it.

Quit harping on your stomach fat, your fat arms and butt, your enormous thighs that you hate and
every one of the calories that you're taking in, and see all that your body is, all that your body can
do and all that your body is doing....right now.
This new mindfulness will make love and acknowledgment for your body such that you never
had. You start to treasure it like the astounding gift that it is and center around giving it
wellbeing every day....in each moment.... with each breath.

When you figure out how to love and acknowledge your body, you are in arrangement with your
higher self.... that adoring and inviting self.

Grasp what your identity is and not who you think you are or ought to be. Understand the
endeavors that you make are seeds. Try not to see the majority of your efforts to lose weight as
disappointments, consider them to be seeds you are planting towards progress.

Pardon yourself. Try not to thrash yourself, regardless of how frequently you think you've
fizzled, irrespective of what you resemble at this moment and irrespective of how often you need
that new beginning. Pardon yourself!
Obesity and Eating Disorders
Eat delicious food. If you read this, you are one of the lucky people who have access to plenty of
food. You can go to your closet or fridge and find something to cook. Otherwise, you can drive
to the store or phone to go. Anyway, the point is there is a lot to do. The next point is to eat is a
pleasure. It is an opportunity to involve our senses in something delicious. It also offers social
opportunities: having dinner with friends or chatting at the table with the family after a day off.

However, eating becomes a problem when we turn to eating to deal with our emotions. You can
feel happy, sad, stressed, worried, helpless, angry, excited ... They are all good excuses to eat.
Instead of eating when you are hungry, let your feelings determine when you eat (and what, quite
often). Suddenly you start using food to feel better about the events in your life. You have ended
a relationship with your food that is much more complex than it should be.

What you should do is learn to use NO food to cope with everything that happens in your life.
The ideal situation is to enjoy your food as it is and nothing else. Something delicious and
nutritious that gives your body the energy you need to survive. You also need to be able to deal
with things in your life in a way that doesn't involve food, but brings real change.
Emotional Eating

Emotional Eating - Don't let food control your life

Most people ate at one time or another for emotional reasons. It can be the thought to turn when
there is stress.
Eating to control emotions over a long period of time can have negative consequences. One of
the biggest problems with using food to control emotions is that it can cause weight problems
and there are many other problems associated with weight.

Emotional food is used to calm a number of emotions, such as: B. sadness, anger, frustration,
loneliness or boredom, to name a few. Emotional hunger is different from physical hunger (the
real reason to eat) and you are looking for food to meet emotional needs. We know that eating
cannot ultimately satisfy an emotional need because it is supposed to satisfy physical hunger.

The starting point for emotional nutrition knows whether you are getting involved. Honestly,
many people do not know what they're doing and think they're just overeating. The foods that are
chosen for emotional feeding are usually the ones you would consider comforting: rich in fats,
salt, and sugar. Here are some signs of emotional eating:

Eat when you are not hungry.

Eat when you experience feelings.

Eat in isolation.

Eat and feel guilty later.

Overeating and not knowing why.

Eat to feel better.

Longing for food for no apparent reason and the thought that you cannot live without it.

Emotional feeding can increase because it tastes good at first and there are all positive thoughts
about how much you want or need. The positive feelings (relief, calm) of emotional eating only
last for a certain period of time (from one minute to hours), followed by a turning point at which
you experience the following situations:

Feel guilty

Shameful

You feel upset because you overestimate.

The feeling of a revival of the original feeling that triggered the attack.

Be upset that you have gained or gained weight.

The bottom line is that emotional feeding doesn't work to satisfy the emotions you sent to eat in
the beginning. Understanding this is the starting point for changing this behavior. Confirm it to
yourself. Also congratulate yourself on "getting" it now. You may have to punish yourself for
doing this for so long. However, this thought process will not serve you in a positive way, but
will send you back to overeating because you are angry with yourself for eating too much (a
circular process). The starting point is recognition and then self-pity. Understand that you have
done your best and now is the time to look for strategies to make a change. Some good strategies
are: read self-help books, see a specialist who specializes in ending emotional nutrition, or visit
12-step groups. The main goal now is to do something to change this pattern. I know you can do
it.

Your Relationship with Food

Take the time to think about your relationship with food. Has it changed over the years? Have
there been any events that triggered the change, or do you remember that when you were a child
you turned to eating at all in stressful times? Was it a change in circumstances? When couples
move in together, women in particular are known to eat more than before and often as much as
their partner.

You need to know your current eating habits before you can change them. Keep a close eye on
what you eat and when you eat it for a week. Set when to use your emotions to determine when
and what you eat. Are there certain emotions that attract you to eat? Note that you are in a
specific mood when there are shifts in what you eat. Seek to be mindful of the amount you eat,
too.

Your goal is to focus on enjoying food in itself as a pleasure, not healing other wounds. It's no
use feeling bad about the food you eat, either. Instead, focus on how the food feels, the tastes and
textures in your mouth. Most satisfaction comes when you eat something early on. So just enjoy
the moment.

If you want to, then go for it. Eating is a privilege and if you really like it you will eat it. But
please enjoy it. Enjoy it for what it is — food that gives your strength and your taste buds a
pleasure. It won't stop your boss from being a psycho in charge, or settle your dispute with your
wife. They need separate solutions.
 Chapter 2 Importance of Taking Care of Your Nutrition
Forget the fast fix. It's much more satisfying to do something for yourself, which will offer
rewards that last longer than the moment and never lead to remorse. Write down what makes you
feel good and help you relax. Seek to come up with at least ten things and keep them next to you
whenever you need them. I don't have to say I'm not allowed to eat?

Manage pain. Stress can affect us in many ways, so being mindful of how stress affects you pays
off. Take the appropriate steps to relax until you know what's going on. And at the same time,
you can't feel anxious and relaxed. Relaxation is not indulgence — it is vital to your physical and
mental health. So, grab your 10-pleasure list and work through it.

You might want to add exercise to your list of ways to relax. It's a great way to alleviate tension
and it's much healthier for you than a giant chip shaped bag. Choose something that works for
you personally and not something that you like you should do. If you think you don't have
enough time, just remind yourself that after 10 minutes, you should stop. Chances are you'll be
energized enough to keep going once you've begun.

Another easy but efficient way to relax is through deep respiration. It's incredibly relaxing to
breathe slowly through your nose and through your mouth and encourage you to stop for a
moment. Now if you want to be super effective, try yoga incorporating deep respiration with
exercise.

Set aside hobby time. If you have not one, then you must find one! Pursue something about
which you have always wanted to learn more. Make sure to keep it interesting as hobbies are a
perfect way to provide you with a flow experience that will carry your happy feelings and forget
any food thoughts.

For plenty of sleep. Not only can tiredness weaken your determination, it can also lead to eating
unhealthy foods. It's quick to justify having a take-away, claiming you 're too busy to be eating.
You might also end up eating more when you mistake hunger for tiredness. You catch yourself
eating when you just ought to be asleep.
Knows How to Fix Problems
It's the un-editable way to address your problems. Put pen to paper to emotionally separate
yourself from the issue. Type in your question. Then imagine every possible answer. Get
imaginative and discard nothing, as a seemingly daft concept can lead to a great thing. Then
work through every solution possible and write down the pros and cons for each. You should be
able to arrive at a workable solution from that. Find out the specifics and then remember to
incorporate the solution.

Establish an internal regulating locus. Recognize how much control you have over your own life.
This involves how you react to events that seem to be beyond your control. By consciously
taking care of your life you will do things to make it a better one. It will help you understand that
your eating is influenced by you. You do have the power to make the required lifelong changes.

Set a law that nothing is to be eaten in front of television. It is easy to curl up in front of the TV
after a long day, mindlessly feeding. Focus on the plan, instead. If you want to eat, get up and get
something else to eat. Focus on the food then without interruption. Take your time, relish the
flavors and textures (no pun intended).

How Mind Influences Our Eating Habits

For you to succeed in putting a stop to your emotional eating habits, you need to find out what
triggers them. Find out the exact situations, feelings, or places that make you feel like eating
whenever you are exposed to. Below are some of the common causes of emotional eating:
Stress

One symptom of stress is hunger. You tend to experience the feeling of hunger whenever you are
stressed. When you are stressed, your body responds by producing a stress hormone known as
Cortisol. When this hormone is produced in high quantities, it will trigger a craving for foods
that are salty or sugary in nature as well as any fried food. These are the food which gives you a
lot of instant energy and pleasure.

If you do not control stress in your life, you will always be seeking relief in unhealthy food.
Boredom

You could be eating to relieve yourself of boredom. You can also resort to eating to beat
idleness. Besides, you may be using food to occupy your time because you do not have much to
do. Food can also fill your void and momentarily distract you from the hidden feelings of
directionless and dissatisfaction with yourself. Whenever you feel purposeless, you tend to reach
out for food to make you feel better. However, the truth is that food can never be a solution to
any of your negative emotions.
Childhood Habits
Emotional eating could be a result of your childhood habits. For example, if your parents used to
reward your good behaviors with foods such as sweets, ice cream, or pizza, you may have
carried these habits to your adulthood. You will find yourself rewarding yourself with your
childhood snack whenever you accomplish a given task. You can also be unconsciously eating
because of the nostalgic feelings of your childhood. This happens when you always cherish the
delicacies you used to eat in your childhood. Food can also serve as a powerful reminder of your
most cherished childhood memories, for example, if you were eating cookies with your dad
during your outings together. Whenever you miss your dad, your first instinct is to reach out for
the cookies.
Social Influences

Occasionally, you may need to go out with your friends and have a good time. During such
outings, you can share a meal to relieve stress. However, such social events can lead to
overeating. You can find yourself overeating at the nudge of your close friends or family who
encourages you to go for an extra serving. It is easy to fall into their temptation.
Avoiding Emotions

You may use eating as a way of temporarily avoiding the emotions you are feeling, such as the
feeling of anxiety, shame, resentment, or anger. Eating is a perfect way to prevent negative
distractions, albeit temporarily.
 Chapter 3 Gastric Band
The Medical Theory Of Gastric Band Hypnosis
Gastric band hypnosis can be portrayed as a procedure employed to acknowledge that there
exists a gastric band around your stomach instinctively to assist you to lose weight. If all else
fails, performing medical procedures with a gastric band incorporates presenting a band around a
piece of the stomach. This constrains the aggregate of food you'll be capable of exhaust, which
decreases weight. This is often a surgical procedure and thus may include dangers and
complications. Installation of "virtual gastric band" don't require surgery. Hypnosis practitioners
utilize this procedure to create the subliminal acceptance that a gastric band has been introduced.
The reason is to accept that you simply have gotten physical treatment in an oblivious state and
your stomach has shrunk.
All you need to know about Gastric Band
The gastric band is a versatile silicone brace that's utilized for bariatric surgery. The strap is set at
the uppermost segment of the stomach so as to create a smaller stomach so to say. This decreases
the amount of nourishment that can be stored within the stomach, hampering feeding. The reason
for the gastric banding is to constrain the sum of nourishment that an individual can eat so that
after eating exceptionally small nourishment they feel full to advance weight loss. In spite of
attempting other weight loss procedures, this can be a final resort for most individuals who
experience this operation. There are complications included in wearing a gastric band, as in any
surgical operation.
Gastric Band Hypnosis

Gastric Band hypnosis might be utilized to assist individuals with getting in shape without
inconveniences from the medical procedure. The majority of subliminal specialists utilize a two-
dimensional system. First, they hope to recognize the underlying driver of your passionate eating
routine.

Via hypnosis, a therapist may encourage you to recall food events that people have long ignored,
and those events can now subconsciously influence you. It may be helpful to resolve and
understand any negative thinking patterns around the food before hypnotizing the stomach
bands.

Then, the subliminal specialist plays out a virtual gastric band treatment. This procedure is
intended to recommend that you do surgery to insert a subconscious level of the gastric band.
The purpose is to make your body respond to this recommendation by making you feel as fast as
you are actually doing an operation.

Diet doesn't will in general adapt to the requirement for a perpetual way of life changes, for
example, long haul manageable changes in our dietary patterns and eating mentalities. Many diet
plans are temporary and difficult to continue, mainly because they are too strict or completely
take away our favorite food.

These policies can be observed in the short term, but in the long run, their implementation is not
ideal. Many diets cause us to calculate calories or consciously measure portions or even
completely ignore food types, which makes us more fascinated by food and diet. This can make
feeding less interesting and can drive us to crave more food and continue to overeat
How Gastric Band Hypnosis Works

A hypnotherapist will put you into a hypnotic state using relaxation techniques. In this happy
state, the subconscious mind has a better chance of taking advice. The hypnotherapist would then
make advice to the subconscious at this stage. This means you have a permanent brace mounted
while doing hypnosis therapy for abdominal bands.

Your brain is solid, if you acknowledge these recommendations your inner mind will change
your conduct as needs be. Usually, along with the virtual stomach band's "fitting," there will be
suggestions about trust and behavior to help you commit to this lifestyle change.

Many therapists will also be teaching techniques for self-hypnosis, so after the meeting, you can
strengthen your work. Self-educating nutrition and exercise is also often recommended to
promote physical health and well-being.
The methodology

Your first gathering with the stupor authority is regularly the chief visit to discuss what you need
from hypnotherapy. You can have a thought concerning it. It is a discussion to investigate your
past endeavors at weight reduction, any dietary propensities, any medical problems and your
general eating regimen plan. This knowledge provides the doctor with a better picture of what
would benefit you and what other interventions can be taken into consideration.

The methodology itself is planned to mirror the medical procedure of the gastric band, to enable
your inner mind to trust it has really occurred. Numerous subliminal specialists will fuse the
sounds and scents of a working theater, to make the experience increasingly bona fide. Your
specialist will start by getting you into a condition of profound unwinding, otherwise called
trance. You will be aware of what's going on and always be in control.
When you are in an entrancing condition, the specialist will converse with you through the
medical procedure. You will depict bit by bit what occurs in the medical procedure, from being
put under the sedative to making the principal cut, appending the band itself and fixing the
injury. An operating theater's noises and tastes will improve the feeling and reassure the
subconscious that what is said is really happening and you.

As previously mentioned, other suggestions to increase self-confidence may be incorporated

during the procedure. At the point when the treatment is finished, the subliminal specialist will
show you many strategies for self-mesmerizing to assist you with remaining at home on target.

Some trance inducers will approach you to return for follow-up arrangements to screen the
accomplishment of the virtual band and to make any modifications. It occurs whenever
individuals get fitted with the physical band as well. Having several sessions of hypnotherapy as
part of a long-term weight management plan can be of immense benefit to some. This permits
the trance specialist to understand you and work on the hidden eating regimen and confidence
issues.
Effectiveness of Gastric Band Hypsnosis
The essential objective of the hypnosis gastric band is to advance sound collaboration with food.
In the event that your inner mind thinks you have introduced a gastric band, it will believe that
your stomach is littler. In fact, although it consumes fewer calories, it still allows the brain to
transmit signals that you are full.

For those who are overeating, it may be difficult to identify when you are full. Sometimes, we
just eat for taste (or comfort) and ignore whether we are hungry. When developing healthy eating
habits, it is helpful to learn to recognize the physical feelings of hunger and satiety.

Compared with gastric band surgery, virtual gastric bands have no physical side effects. Genuine
surgery may cause queasiness, heaving and vomiting.

Because gastric hypnosis is not a physical operation, it does not cause these symptoms.

This treatment will be a fun and calming experience, with the advent of hypnosis, most people
now feel peaceful.
Will hypnosis work for me?

For those who try hypnosis for the first time, a common question is will it work for me?
Unfortunately, this is not a simple yes or no situation. Much depends on you. Hypnosis can help
people with various problems, but it is particularly useful for changing habits. Therefore, helping
people develop healthy eating habits and losing weight is usually successful.
What Happens During Hypnosis

The first and most important step, as stated earlier, is the cause-oriented work by finding and
resolving the underlying trauma that is responsible for much of their unhealthy eating habits. As
long as this is not done, no suggestions of the world will permanently help you lose weight. Once
these emotions have been decoupled from their eating habits, they are free to make their way into
a new life.

Now it is possible with hypnosis to also increase the desire to exercise, the joy of exercise, the
joy of healthy food to learn again, a natural satiety and much more. However, the change always
happens only to the degree that is desirable and appropriate for you. There can never be anything
against your will or conviction.
What can’t happen in hypnosis?

We will not persuade you in hypnosis how to feed yourself. We will not give you any dietary tips
and will not tell you anything about sugar, carbohydrates, fats and so on. Also not on the topic of
eating and serving size. Eating habits are as individual as human beings themselves. What is
suitable for one does not have to be fitting for the other.

A permanent change in diet could never work if you tried to prescribe foods that you would not
like. Thus, your subconscious mind knows exactly what foods do you good and which do not. It
knows exactly what food you need, in what quantity and at what time. So the goal is for them to
be able to return to their healthy, natural eating habits.

Possibly you as of now have the hypnosis method of " virtual gastric banding " or " gastric band
hypnosis with this strategy, for example, the patient, he recommends that he has a gastric band
and from that point on he won't have the option to eat as much as in the past, so on the off chance
that you are searching for this strategy or system, you won't discover it.

We should now have understood for ourselves how important it is to cure the cause and
associated emotions when it comes to eating - a "virtual gastric band" would never solve the
problem, but simply After a few weeks they will fall back into old eating habits (the human
stomach is VERY stretchy), or even worse choose a different evasion behavior such as alcohol,
Smoking or any other distraction
 Chapter 4 The Hypnosis and Mental Programming
The thought of drifting into a state of unconsciousness and waking with weight down seems too
good to be true for many dieters. Hypnosis is utilized to help conquer phobias and change certain
behaviors, such as tobacco or alcohol usage. Some assert. It can also encourage weight reduction.

What Is Hypnosis and Mental Reprogramming?

Hypnosis is a state of understanding of focus and concentration. There are two theories about
how hypnosis works. The “country" theory implies that subjects enter a different condition of
consciousness. The “on-state" concept says that hypnosis isn't an altered state of consciousness.
Rather, the topic is responding to a proposal and actively engaging in the semester, Instead of
under the control of the a hypnotist there are hypnosis methods. Among the very common is that
the procedure, which entails keeping a constant stare until the eyes shut at a bright object. You're
more when you've entered the state of hypnosis suggestible and more inclined to be more
amenable to creating changes. Entering into a trance, relaxed state of consciousness Once a
trance, the hypnotist will provide verbal ideas, for example, “if you awaken, you will feel more
inspired" or even “you won't drink alcohol." Some argue that hypnosis might help recover
repressed memories, treat dependence, cure allergies, and decrease depression and anxiety.
Hypnosis is focus and responsiveness to tips. You are inclined to be amenable to creating
positive behavioral changes.
How To Reprogram The Unconscious Through Viualization
Some studies have found hypnosis to be capable of modifying kinds of behavior usage. In one
study, 286 smokers failed either counseling or hypnosis. 26% of the group had stopped smoking,
as opposed to 18 percent of the group. This difference was significant even after one year in nine
patients; a different study went through 10 weekly group sessions of hypnosis. After half an
hour, street drug usage had stopped. What is more, other studies have found that hypnotherapy
may enhance self-esteem, decrease impulsivity and anger, cure sleeplessness, and handle
anxiety. Current research about the advantages of hypnosis is limited and concentrated on small
groups of individuals. Larger studies are required to ascertain how the populace may be affected
by it. Some studies have found that hypnosis can help people smoking. It handles anxiety, and
the decrease might also boost self-esteem and cure sleeplessness. Larger studies are required to
ascertain how the populace may be affected by it.

Hypnotherapy May Enhance Weight Loss

Along with its ability, the study indicates that weight loss might boost. In 1 study, 60 individuals
with sleep apnea were for decreasing calorie consumption, given dietary information,
hypnotherapy. After three weeks, similar amounts were lost by all of the groups. But the band
receiving for anxiety reduction had lasted their weight loss. In a different study, therapy was
undergone by 109 people for weight reduction together with or without. After two decades, the
research group continued to eliminate weight, while the control group exhibited fewer additional
fluctuations in weight an analysis of studies found that incorporating hypnosis into cognitive
behavioral therapy for weight loss resulted in almost twice the quantity of weight reduction
(9Trusted Source). However, research about the effects of hypnosis on losing weight is
constrained. More studies are required to quantify how hypnosis may gain from weight control.
Studies have found that hypnosis may improve weight reduction. Research is limited, and
additional studies are necessary.
The Trick to Lose Weight
There are few studies looking at the ramifications of hypnosis on weight reduction it has been
used by hypnosis on weight loss in conjunction. When paired in these studies, weight reduction
was improved by hypnosis with behavioral therapy or advice. Research is required to ascertain
how hypnosis weight reduction may influence. For best results, hypnosis ought to be added into
a treatment program, which includes making lifestyle and diet changes. Studies that have found
that weight is aided by hypnotherapy show that it has been utilized by reduction. To achieve
weight reduction with a nutritious diet and lifestyle, it needs to be combined with alcoholism
changes.
Hypnosis Might Not Work For Everybody
Studies show that people may be susceptible to the effects of hypnosis and likely to profit from
it. In particular, character traits may forecast how susceptible it is for an individual to hypnosis.
Attributes such as allocation, selflessness, and willingness have been linked to hypnosis which
was high susceptibility. Furthermore, fantasizes, or people with a vivid imagination that are
dissociated in fact, are more inclined to be hypnotized. Research demonstrates that judgments are
not likely to be vulnerable to the consequences of hypnotism. Studies have found that hypnotic
increases after age 40, and women are more likely to be vulnerable. If you drop into those or
exhibit those character traits, hypnosis is much likely to succeed for you. For many others, the
same outcomes may not be produced by hypnosis. Character traits selflessness, such as
persistence, imagination, and openness, has been linked to increased susceptibility to hypnosis.
Susceptibility is believed to be greater in people over 40, in addition to girls.
Hypnotherapy Isn't A Quick Fix
Although hypnosis has been proven to improve weight reduction in some research, it should not
be seen as a magical cure or a therapy for weight reduction. In reality, most studies that have
discovered a benefit have used it to a weight control program or therapy. Hypnosis ought to be
utilized to assist certain that may promote weight gain. You must put to observe effects. Eat
more fruits and vegtables and reduce your consumption of being sure and processed foods and
sugar that you're getting regular physical activity to shed the pounds -- with or without. While
weight reduction may be enhanced by hypnosis, it shouldn't be viewed as a fast fix for weight
issues.

Myths and Misconceptions about Hypnosis

Even though you are figuring out how to be a trance specialist or contemplating heading off to a
trance specialist/trance specialist for help, it is essential to have an away from what hypnosis is
just as what it isn't. Why? Most definitely, you should have the option to subdue individuals'
feelings of fear about being entranced. Numerous individuals have normal misconceptions about
hypnosis that have been powered by motion pictures (think Manchurian Candidate), stage and
satire hypnosis appear, and different types of media. These misconceptions can make individuals
oppose going into hypnosis. At the point when you, as the subliminal specialist, clear these
misconceptions up, you will build your odds of mesmerizing your customer/subject effectively!

Presently to the extent being the individual experiencing hypnosis, having misconceptions about
hypnosis can diminish your odds of accepting the full advantages of hypnosis, as you are
probably going to oppose going into hypnosis. At the point when you get those misconceptions
cleared up, you can unwind and appreciate the procedure as you go into hypnosis, and you will
get the full advantages that hypnosis brings to the table you. To support the trance inducer and
the individual being spellbound the same, I have incorporated the eight most normal
misconceptions and myths about hypnosis beneath with a clarification of reality with regards to
hypnosis.
1. The Good, the Bad, the Ugly Hypnosis.

Let us face, and everything hypnosis isn't the equivalent. Try not to be tricked. There is
acceptable, terrible, thus so hypnosis. The best type of hypnosis is performed by a gifted trance
inducer/subliminal specialist who has a decent establishment of demonstrated mental standards
to enable you to get what you need most viably.

There truly is a heap of poop out in the hypnosis world today. In this day and age, individuals are
finding out increasingly more to have an independent mind and don't care to be determined what
to do. The entirety of that old "you are getting very, very sleepy" stuff is obsolete and
insufficient. Thank heavens that science and brain science (just as numerous incredible
subliminal specialists) have raised hypnosis to an a lot higher plain today. Even though I despise
everything think there is some extraordinary incentive indirect hypnosis (in specific
circumstances), my inclination is that aberrant/conversational hypnosis is, by a wide margin, on
the "razor' edge" similar to viability and being state-of-the-art.
Likewise, be extremely cautious and clutch your wallet because numerous hypnosis peddlers are
selling "hypnotic scam" items, for example, low-rate subliminal messages and pseudo-
otherworldliness stuff ("You are currently totally entire since you are 'at one' with the
universe."). Try not to misunderstand me, I am not against every single subliminal message, and
I do feel that hypnosis can be utilized in mix with otherworldliness. I am trying to say that there
are a ton of quacks out there who are eager to sell you anything for the sake of genuine hypnosis.
A significant number of these individuals have no genuine experience and preparing in hypnosis
at all!
2. Just mental weaklings can be spellbound/I can't be mesmerized.

Maybe you have heard that "shrewd" individuals can't be mesmerized. Some portion of the
purpose for this fantasy is out and out, old, terrible hypnosis like I referenced previously.
Individuals don't care to be requested around and told stuff like, "Your eyes ARE feeling so
substantial that you CANNOT open your eyes!" while they are pondering internally, "Goodness,
YES I CAN!" Most individuals don't see that kind of thing as charming. Thus, they essentially
don't go into hypnosis. It is that basic.

Then again, when you truly find a workable pace handily and delicately coordinated into a
condition of deep unwinding and center, you will understand that you can, truth be told, be
mesmerized. As a general rule, anybody with sound intellectual capacities and a sensible
measure of insight can be entranced. Believe it or not, experience shows that individuals who are
savvy and have an innovative mind make the best hypnosis subjects/customers since they can
"consider some fresh possibilities" and don't constrain their minds about what is workable for
them.
3. Hypnosis isn't minded control/you are not the trance inducer's manikin.

The main individual who has total authority over your mind is you. Arrange trance specialists,
and individuals who don't think a lot about hypnosis have advanced this fantasy for a long time.

That being stated, an individual can utilize hypnosis and influence strategies (both for good and
for awful purposes) to make someone else all the more ready to do what they state and
acknowledge their proposals. A trance specialist can't compel anybody to do anything without
wanting to his/her will (counting conflict with their ethics) except if previously ready to do as
such in any case.

As a rule, the hypnotherapist fills in as to some degree a manual for the lead you into a loose and
centered state. It uses mentally stable hypnotic strategies to assist you with making changes or
experience certain things that you need to understanding.
4. Hypnosis doesn't sleep.

Individuals who attempt hypnosis just because they frequently leave it somewhat baffled given
this legend. As a general rule, when you are in hypnosis, you can know about everything that is
going on around you.

In hypnosis, you are deeply loose and profoundly engaged. At the point when you sleep, your
conscious resources appear to vanish for some time. At the point when you wake up, they appear
to come back to you. Hypnosis is somewhat the "center ground" between these two conditions of
cognizance. It isn't equivalent to when you are asleep, nor is it equivalent to when you are wide
wakeful.

One of the causes behind this misinterpretation is that trance inducers regularly utilize "SLEEP!"
as an order to place somebody into hypnosis. This is because sleep is utilized as an analogy for
helping somebody go into hypnosis. I will show you increasingly hypnotic analogies in later
articles.
5. You can't get "stuck" in hypnosis.

Nobody has ever stalled out in hypnosis. The main explanation an individual would remain in
hypnosis is because it feels phenomenal to be so loose and centered. A few people would prefer
not to leave hypnosis since they don't need that feeling to leave. The most noticeably awful thing
that would occur if the subliminal specialist left or unexpectedly kicked the bucket while the
individual was in hypnosis is that the entranced individual would doubtlessly nod off and wake
up feeling great.
6. Hypnosis isn't amnesia.

You won't overlook everything that occurred while you were in hypnosis. Keep in mind, and
hypnosis isn't sleeping. You are not oblivious while you are in hypnosis. You are simply loose
and profoundly engaged. Presently, a subliminal specialist can propose that an individual
overlook everything that was said during the hypnosis meeting, bringing about the individual not
recollecting. Notwithstanding, when in doubt, individuals will, in general, remember everything
that occurs while in hypnosis.
7. You won't uncover your deep, dim privileged insights in hypnosis.

As I said previously, you are in charge of your mind and will be in any event, when you are in
hypnosis. You won't uncover anything you don't need others to realize except if you need to.
Hypnosis can, in any case, be utilized as an approach to assist individuals with investigating and
manage those things that they would not regularly need to discuss under
 Chapter 6 Benefits of Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss
Hypnosis is effective in many problems, we will present below those which have been the
subject of scientific studies.
Hypnosis for weight loss
A study has shown the positive effects of hypnosis on weight loss in obese individuals. Indeed,
the hypnotic suggestions had made it possible to modify their eating habits, which was at the
origin of the weight loss, but also to improve their body image.
Hypnosis to treat stress
By attacking the underlying cause of stress and modifying its perceptions, hypnosis allows you
to reassess with little effort its automatisms and its vision of the world and it then becomes easy
to learn how to live normal stresses well and free yourself from unnecessary stress.
Hypnosis to quit smoking
Many studies have shown that 6 months after a session, the smoking cessation rate was between
30% and 40%. A more recent study has shown that hypnosis sessions are more effective than
nicotine substitutes for treating addiction to cigarettes.
Hypnosis to facilitate pregnancy and childbirth
During pregnancy, hypnosis can gradually reduce anxiety about childbirth and thus create a
climate of confidence favorable to labor and childbirth. It also makes it possible to modify and
improve the bodily perceptions of the pregnant woman.
The applications of hypnosis
In the health field, its applications are mainly pain medicine and the management of anxiety
disorders (from stress to phobia, via assertiveness disorders or panic states). Hypnosis is also
used for the purpose of changing addictive behaviors, such as smoking or eating disorders. But
other applications are possible both in the field of somatic (dermatology, gastroenterology, etc.)
and in that of psychopathology (personality disorders, mood disorders, etc.).
A complementary method for health professionals
The practice of hypnosis complements the methods developed by the practitioner in his
professional culture of origin (doctor, nurse, psychologist, etc.).
Hypnosis and hypnotherapy are not disciplines in themselves, but methods supplementing the
approaches specific to a given medical, paramedical or psychological profession. This explains
why to solve a health problem, it is important to consult a health professional first of all who will
choose the most appropriate methods (of which hypnosis is one) to help solve the difficulty
presented by the patient.

The way hypnosis works is now known: it allows, through an attentional game involving the
imagination of patients, to revisit reality and the way the patient perceives it. This has the effect
of reducing the importance of the symptoms of a certain number of pathologies, and of
developing in the individual unprecedented behaviors, allowing him to distance the reason for
suffering, even in some cases, solve. Hypnosis allows a person to take care of themselves and
develop new internal and behavioral dispositions.

Hypnosis to Treat Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Some studies have shown that hypnosis can significantly improve abdominal pain, bowel
movements, abdominal distension, anxiety and depression associated with this syndrome. In
addition, it seems that these benefits persist in the medium term (2 years and more). In the longer
term (5 years), the practice of hypnosis would contribute to an improvement in symptoms and a
decrease in the consumption of drugs.
The work of the hypnotherapist
How is a session with a hypnotherapist?

Each practitioner has implemented his own method, his own protocols and his way of welcoming
his client.

Generally, the first session begins with an interview with the consultant in order to define his
needs, and to determine the approach and methods to be used. This very first session is generally
longer than the following and each technique is adapted to the client's needs. A typical session
lasts 50 or 60 minutes. Most people start to see results after 4 meetings. Hypnosis is recognized
as a brief therapy. A dozen meetings are generally sufficient, at least for well-defined problems.
In children, usually easier to hypnotize, changes are often seen after only 1 or 2 visits.
How to choose your hypnotherapist?

Don't just rely on word of mouth. It is useful to learn about the internet and to take the time to
read the advice and information provided by the practitioner. These are important and allow you
to get an idea of his style and approach. You can also call the practitioner to discuss your needs
and expectations. It is essential to go to a professional with excellent training in psychotherapy or
health, depending on the case to be treated. Ideally, he should know the mechanisms of the
problem at hand, whatever it is (physical, psychological, relational, etc.). However, more than
the techniques used by a given therapist,
Hypnotherapist, hypnotist, what differences?

The hypnotherapist is a specialist who uses hypnosis in order to treat and support his patient
towards well-being, while the hypnotist designates an individual who knows how to bring about
the state of hypnosis. While the former must have training and practice in the health sector, the
latter is more active in the entertainment sector. Even though they both use hypnosis, the end
goal and the context are completely different.
Hypnosis Treatments

The possible treatments for hypnosis are very diverse: phobia or fear , anxiety, stress , burn out,
depression, pain management , lack of confidence , sexual disorders , addictions (tobacco,
alcohol, games…) , weight loss , trauma, enuresis, skin problems, feeling of abandonment,
emotional dependence, mourning , separation, letting go , insomnia , procrastination, OCD, fear
of the gaze of others, shyness , tinnitus, management of emotions , anger, feeling of failure, inner
conflict, improve memory, eating disorders

go thrоugh whеn уоu еxреrіеnсе ѕеlf-hурnоѕіѕ.

A соuрlе of tips thаt саn help уоu еѕtаblіѕh уоur ѕеlf-hурnоѕіѕ practice іnсludе:
Establish a рlасе to practice:
Choose a рlасе whеrе уоu can bе соmрlеtеlу comfortable, whеthеr sitting іn a сhаіr оr lуіng
dоwn. Thе еnvіrоnmеnt уоu сhооѕе should be frее оf distractions аnd роtеntіаl іntеrruрtіоnѕ.
Yоur ѕkіn bесоmеѕ sensitive whеn уоu аrе іn trance, ѕо be ѕurе thаt thе rооm temperature іѕ juѕt
rіght (bеttеr to be a lіttlе warm thаn too cool). Thоugh not nесеѕѕаrу, ѕоmе реорlе рrеfеr ѕоft
lіghtіng, soothing music, оr еvеn a ѕсеntеd candle. Sеlf-hурnоѕіѕ is уоur gіft tо уоu. Whеnеvеr
роѕѕіblе, іndulgе уоurѕеlf in tоtаl comfort!
Set a tіmе limit:
Mеntаllу give уоurѕеlf thе fоllоwіng ѕuggеѕtіоn: ‘Exасtlу 10 (or 15) minutes frоm now, mу
еуеlіdѕ ореn automatically аnd I feel саlm, rеѕtеd, аnd rеfrеѕhеd. I аm rеаdу tо tаkе on thе rеѕt of
thе day, or I аm ready to drіft оff to ѕlеер’ (whichever уоu prefer). Dоn’t wоrrу about
lооkіng аt a clock. Yоur unconscious mіnd knows hоw to mеаѕurе time and will, wіth рrасtісе,
rеlіаblу dіѕеngаgе уоu frоm hypnosis in thе рrесіѕе tіmе thаt уоu аllоttеd.

Induсіng уоur оwn trаnсе

An іnduсtіоn is thе mеthоd uѕеd tо put уоurѕеlf іntо trаnсе. In ѕеlf-hурnоѕіѕ уоu іnduсе yourself
into trаnсе.

Yоu can choose frоm a vаrіеtу of induction tесhnіԛuеѕ, mаnу of which уоu саn еаѕіlу teach
уоurѕеlf. The nеxt ѕubѕесtіоnѕ offer ѕоmе induction mеthоdѕ уоu саn try.
Aѕ уоu rеаd more аbоut hурnоѕіѕ, you mау come асrоѕѕ induction scripts thаt use gеnеrіс
рhrаѕеѕ that ѕоund hаrmlеѕѕ, but in certain саѕеѕ are tо bе аvоіdеd, such аѕ:

If уоu’rе оbеѕе оr wоrrіеd аbоut уоur weight, avoid thе wоrd ‘heavy’. Dоn’t think tо уоurѕеlf ‘I
am fееlіng hеаvу and tіrеd’, just ‘I аm feeling tired’.

If уоu are depressed, аvоіd thе wоrd ‘down’. Dоn’t ѕау ‘I will ѕіnk down іntо trance’, but ‘I wіll
gо іntо a pleasant trаnсе’.

Prоgrеѕѕіvе relaxation
Uѕіng the рrоgrеѕѕіvе relaxation induction tесhnіԛuе, уоu fосuѕ оn gradually relaxing muѕсlеѕ
оvеr еvеrу part оf уоur bоdу. This relaxation hеlрѕ уоu to gо into trаnсе.

1. Bеgіn bу ѕіmрlу сlоѕіng уоur еуеѕ and tаkіng a fеw dеер brеаthѕ.

Imagine that wіth each breath уоu аrе еxhаlіng bоdіlу tеnѕіоn, whісh wіll hеlр уоu to

2. Start progressively rеlаxіng аll уоur muѕсlеѕ, from head to toe, оr tое tо head, whichever уоu

Gіvе уоurѕеlf rереаtеd ѕuggеѕtіоnѕ to rеlаx all your muscle grоuрѕ.

Kеер іn mіnd thаt іt іѕ nоt аn anatomy tеѕt. Forgetting to rеlаx a ѕресіfіс bоdу раrt – уоur knееѕ,
оr еlbоwѕ, оr toes, оr whаtеvеr – іѕn’t crucial. Your unconscious will fіll in аnу parts you forget,
іf уоu thіnk оf уоur whоlе body being rеlаxеd, аftеr tаkіng yourself thrоugh thіѕ script.

Yоu саn use phrases ѕuсh аѕ ‘Lеt thеm rеlаx’ and ‘Lеt thеm go limp аnd slack’. Dеlіvеr thеѕе
quite nеutrаl phrases іn a very реrmіѕѕіvе tоnе.

Trusting уоur unсоnѕсіоuѕ mіnd tо carry оut уоur ѕuggеѕtіоn

Whеn уоu’rе іn a dеереnеd trаnсе ѕtаtе, уоu start uѕіng thе gоаl statement уоu dеvіѕеd fоr уоur
ѕеlf-hурnоѕіѕ ѕеѕѕіоn. Now you rеаlіzе whу wе tell you to ѕtаtе thе gоаl in a single ѕеntеnсе.
Whеn іn the trаnсе state, уоu wаnt to mіnіmіzе words tо аllоw уоur unсоnѕсіоuѕ thе non-verbal
part of уоu to work its mаgіс.

At thіѕ ѕtаgе, juѕt rеmеmbеr your single ѕеntеnсе gоаl statement. Thеn ѕіmрlу lеt go. Lеt thе
gоаl statement pass from your соnѕсіоuѕ mіnd, juѕt ѕау іt a fеw tіmеѕ before ѕtаrtіng thе trаnсе,
allowing it tо ѕіnk іntо your mіnd, thеn truѕt that you hаvе hаndеd it оvеr tо your unсоnѕсіоuѕ
mіnd, аnd thаt thіѕ wіѕе раrt оf you wіll now ѕоlvе the рrоblеm.

Thіѕ is thе fосаl point оf ѕеlf-hурnоѕіѕ. Don’t juѕt think уоur gоаl ѕtаtеmеnt – іmаgіnе hearing іt,
seeing іt, and experiencing thе change асtuаllу occurring. Use аѕ many of уоur ѕеnѕеѕ as роѕѕіblе
to іnсоrроrаtе уоur gоаl into уоur trance ѕtаtе. If you саn visualize уоurѕеlf hаvіng made the
changes, that’s еvеn better. Thе роіnt is tо rumіnаtе over your goal and make іt as vivid аѕ
роѕѕіblе іn уоur imagination. Yоur unсоnѕсіоuѕ mind wіll dо thе wоrk уоu hаvе gіvеn іt, if you
аrе clear, fосuѕеd, аnd соnсіѕе оn whаt you want.

Strеngthеnіng уоur еgо

Ego ѕtrеngthеnіng іѕ thе icing оn thе саkе аftеr thе mаіn thеrару. Thіѕ іѕ whеrе you еnсоurаgе

 Chapter 8 Self-Hypnosis
What is Self-Hypnosis?
Self-hypnosis is still considered a mystical phenomenon by many people, even though this
technique can be seen as prayer. You are alone, and you concentrate on your well-being. If you
like, you ask God or a supreme being you believe in to help you. This practice includes
meditation (just like praying does) and chanting, mantras, inner confirmation or affirmation.
When you have to perform at work or college, you make such statements like "I don't fear; I'm
fine"; "I can do it" or precisely the opposite, like "I can't do it. Everybody is better than me," etc.
Even when we imagine ourselves in a different scenario from what is currently happening, we
are programming ourselves. What you are doing is continuously hypnotizing yourself. Self-
hypnosis helps us come into contact with the unconscious through the use of a specific language,
aimed at awakening some parts of ourselves by leveraging archetypal symbols. Self-
hypnotization is self-programming. Our unconscious understands the symbolic messages of
words rather than their rational meaning; that's why figurative language is used in hypnosis to
induce the individual to relax and focus on the inner world. We are embedding a vivid,
information-rich image with emotions in the subconscious mind.

However, we must learn to pray, or let's say hypnotize ourselves accurately! Self-hypnosis is the
ability to apply techniques and procedures alone to stimulate the unconscious to become our ally
and involve it directly in realizing our goals. By learning the essential elements of
communication with the unconscious mind, it is possible to reprogram our unconscious
activities. Self-hypnosis is a method that does not dismiss the support of a professional but has
the advantage of being able to be performed independently. This is possible through the use of
CDs and DIY courses made by hypnotists to make this practice accessible to a larger number of
people with significant advantages, even from an economic point of view!

What is self-hypnosis?

Milton H. Erickson, the founder of modern hypnotherapy, gave an exhaustive illustration of the
effects and purposes of hypnosis and self-hypnosis. The scholar stated that this practice aims to
communicate with the subconscious of the subjects through metaphors and stories full of
symbolic meanings (Tyrrell, 2014).

If incorrectly applied, self-hypnosis can certainly not harm, but it may not be useful in attaining
the desired results, with the risk of not feeling motivated to continue a constructive relationship
with the unconscious. However, to do it as efficiently as possible, we need to be in a relaxed
state of mind. So, accordingly, we start with relaxation to gather the attention inside, while
suspending conscious control. Then we insert suggestions and affirmations to the unconscious
mind. At the end of the period allocated for the process, a gradual awakening procedure
facilitates returning to permanent consciousness. When you are calm, your subconscious is 20-
25% more programmable than when you are agitated. Also, it effectively relieves stress (you can
repair a lot of information and stimuli you understand), aids regeneration, energizes, triggers
positive physiological changes, improves concentration, helps you find solutions, and helps you
make the right decisions. If the state of conscious trance is reached, if the patient manages to let
himself go by concentrating on the hypnotist's words, progressively forgetting the external
stimuli, the physiological parameters undergo considerable variations. The confirmation comes
from science. It was found that during hypnosis, the left hemisphere, the rational one, decreases
its activity in favor of the more creative region, the right one (Harris, n. d.).

You can do self-hypnosis in faster and more immediate ways, even during the various daily
activities after experiencing what state you need to reach during hypnosis.

A better understanding of communication with the unconscious mind highlights how

indispensable our collaboration is to slip into the state outside the ordinary consciousness. In
other words, we enter an altered state of consciousness because we want it, and every form of
hypnosis, even if induced by someone else, is always self-hypnosis.

We wish to access the extraordinary power of unconscious creativity; for this, we understand that
it is necessary to put aside the control of the rational mind and let ourselves slip entirely into
relaxation and the magical world of the unconscious.

Immense benefits can be obtained from a relationship that becomes natural and habitual with
one's unconscious. Self-hypnosis favors the emergence of constructive responses from our being,
allows us to know ourselves better, helps us be more aware of our potential, and can express
them and use them to foster our success in every field of possible application.
How do you do self-hypnosis?
There are several self-hypnosis techniques out there; however, they are all based on one concept:
focusing on a single idea, object, image, or word. This is the key that opens the door to trance.
You can achieve focus in many ways, so there are so many different techniques that can be
applied. After a period of initial learning, those who have learned a method, and have continued
to practice it, realize that they can skip specific steps. We will take a look at the essential self-
hypnosis techniques.
The Betty Erickson Method
Here I'll summarize the most practical points of this method of Betty Erickson, wife of Milton
Erickson, the most famous hypnotist of 1900.

Choose something you don't like about yourself. Turn it into an image, and then turn this image
into a positive one. If you don't want your body shape, take a picture of your body, then turn it
into a copy of your beautiful self with a body you would like to have. Before inducing self-
hypnosis, give yourself a time limit before hypnotizing yourself mentally or better yet, saying
aloud the following sentence, "I induce self-hypnosis for X minutes." Your mind will take time
like a Swiss watch.
How do you practice?
Take three objects around you, preferably small and bright, like a door handle, a light spot on a
painting, etc. and fix your attention. Take three sounds from your environment, traffic, fridge
noise, etc., and set your attention on each one. Take three sensations you are feeling, the itchy
nose, tingling in the leg, the feeling of air passing through the nose, etc. It’s better to use unusual
sensations, such as the sensation of the right foot inside the shoe, to which attention is not
usually drawn. Don't fix your attention for too long, just enough to make you aware of what you
are seeing, feeling, or trying. The mind is quick. Then, in the same way, switch to two objects,
two sounds, two sensations. Always be calm, while switching to an object, a sound, a feeling. If
you have done things properly, you are in a trance, ready for the next step.

Now let your mind wander, as you did in class when the teacher spoke and you looked out of the
window, and you were in another place, in another time, in another space, in a place where you
would have liked to be, so completely forget about everything else. Now recall the initial image.
Perhaps the mind wanders, from time to time it gets distracted, maybe it goes adrift, but it doesn't
matter. As soon as you can, take the initial image, and start working on it. Do not make efforts to
try to remind you of what it means or what it is. Your mind works according to mental
associations, let it work at its best without unnecessarily disturbing it: it knows what it must do.
Manipulate the image, play with it a little. See if it looks brighter, or if it is smaller, or it is more
pleasant. If it is a moving image, send it back and forth in slow motion or speed it up. When the
initial image always gets worse, replace it instantly with the second image.

Reorientation, also known as awakening, marks the end of self-hypnotic induction. Enjoy your
new image, savor it as much as you like, and open your eyes when you have done this. If you
have not given yourself any time limits before entering self-hypnosis, when you are satisfied
with the work done, count quietly to yourself from one to ten and wake up, and open your eyes
(Traversa, 2018).
The Benson Method

Herbert Benson, in his famous book titled, Relaxation Response, describes the methods and
results of some tests carried out on a group of meditators dedicated to "transcendental
meditation" to reach concentration (1975). Benson suggested a way of relaxation based on the
mind's frequency on a single idea incorporated in the Eastern disciplines. The technique includes
the following steps:

● Meditate on one word, but you can choose an object or something else if you want to.

● Think silently about the object of meditation and continue to do so for 10-20 minutes. If you
find that you have lost the object of meditation, gather your focus again on the original purpose.

● Once the set time is reached, open your eyes stretch yourself well for some additional minutes.
To perform better, you will need to practice.

Benson proposes this exercise as a meditation practice. There are no differences between the
hypnotic state and that achieved with meditation. This is one of the most straightforward self-
hypnosis exercises you can do.

Here is another simple technique developed by the first hypnotists because it leads to a
satisfactory state of trance in a reasonable time. It can be used to enter self-hypnosis in a short
time.

● Begin to open and close your eyes by counting slowly. Open your eyes at the odd numbers
close them at the even numbers. Continue counting very slowly and slowing down the
numbering of even numbers.

● After a few numbers, your eyes become tired, and you find it difficult to open them at odd
numbers. Continue counting while you can open your eyes at the different names. If you cannot
do it, it means you are in a trance.

● Go deeper by slowly counting twenty other numbers. Let yourself go to the images, sensations,
and the words that come to mind. To wake up from the trance, count from one to five, and open
your eyes at five (Stress Management Plus, n. d.).

These are examples of techniques, but no one prevents you from devising others, as long as the
underlying assumption is maintained: concentration on a single idea.
 Chapter 9 More on Self-Hypnosis
How Are You Guided?
When it comes to self-hypnosis, you are guided by yourself. This comes through self-suggestion,
as well as self-exploration. The best way to guide yourself through an intentional hypnosis
practice is to set the expectation of what you want to be guided through or toward before you
enter the hypnotic state. For example, say that you want to hypnotize yourself and practice self-
hypnosis as a means to help you quit something such as smoking. Before entering the state of
deep relaxation that is required for hypnosis, you would set this intention and repeat it to yourself
and over and over. Then, you would begin working on setting yourself into the hypnotic state of
deep relaxation. Once you are in that state, you can begin repeating the intention over and over
once again. This will set the intention into your mind and allow the message to sink even deeper
into your subconscious, allowing it to help rewrite and reprogram your subconscious just as any
other form or state of hypnosis would.

Being in a state of both physical and mental deep relaxation such as that which is experienced
when you are undergoing hypnosis means that the intention you set and the message you repeat
goes far beyond your conscious mind. Your conscious mind is the “first step” of your mind that
is used to process information. This part of your mind will easily attest or contest anything that
you feed your mind with. The idea is that you allow yourself to enter a deep state of relaxation
and then begin directing your mind through intention, which results in these intentions bypassing
your conscious mind and entering your subconscious or unconscious mind which is the one that
is responsible for all that you do. This results in information that may no longer be serving you
being redesigned by your intention, making it easier for you to facilitate complete changes.
How is Anything Achieved Through This?
The ability to achieve results through self-hypnosis works the same as your ability to achieve
results through any form of hypnosis. Whether we realize it or not, our subconscious or
unconscious mind is directly responsible for virtually everything that we do. This is where our
“survival” information is stored. Anything that urges us to jump into action or produce certain
results are all stored within this part of our mind and is responsible for virtually everything that
we do. From breathing and digesting food that we eat to telling us who to trust and who not to,
and even helping us make an opinion about things and form judgments on various topics, our
subconscious mind is directly responsible for these actions.
The conscious mind can recognize and become aware of things, but it is not directly responsible
for what we ultimately choose to do. So, by consciously choosing to make a change, we must
then relay that change into our subconscious so that it happens. Just as with any other form of
hypnosis, performing self-hypnosis allows you to take a conscious desire to change and relay it
back into your subconscious mind so that it takes effect and true changes are seen and
experienced in our lives. For example, if you want to stop biting your nails you may tell your
conscious mind that you want to do so. Then, later, you begin biting your nails without realizing
it because it is a practice that has become a part of your subconscious psyche. Therefore, if you
want to instill real change, you have to bypass your conscious mind and directly tell your
subconscious mind to change this behavior. This is achieved through self-hypnosis and intention,
and the results can be just as powerful as any other form of hypnosis.
What Is The Big Difference?
There truly is no major difference between regular hypnosis and self-hypnosis aside from who is
facilitating the hypnotic state and directing the subconscious mind in that state. As we have
already discussed, hypnosis is something that is facilitated by a third-party to direct the
relationship between your conscious and unconscious mind. Self-hypnosis, however, is done
directly between your conscious and unconscious mind and allows you to perform the practice at
any given time, in any given place, for any particular reason.

Choosing between self-hypnosis and hypnosis is personal, and both have their unique benefits
that outweigh the benefits given by the other. For example, if you are inexperienced and are
looking to be hypnotized by a professional to achieve something big, such as to motivate
yourself to lose weight or become healthier, professional hypnosis can help you facilitate this
change. Professional hypnosis will be able to facilitate quicker results than an inexperienced self-
hypnosis practitioner, and they will also be able to use a broader range of words and intentions
because they are not in the hypnotic state, but rather you are, and they are simply directing it. By
this understanding, a hypnotherapist can take you through a broader range of intentions and
experiences when it comes to hypnosis.

However, professional hypnotherapists can become rather costly and may not always be able to
provide you the level of help that you need for various intentions. For example, they may not
entirely understand what change you want to make, they may not be within your budget, or they
may simply not be available at the exact times that you need hypnosis to help you. In these cases,
self-hypnosis is a great option. You can enter a hypnotic state and then focus on your intention
and, as a result, facilitate change directly at the moment that change is needed. This can increase
the benefits and results you experience from your hypnosis, and it can make hypnotherapy more
effective for you.

If you are wondering which to choose: hypnosis with a professional hypnotherapist or self-
hypnosis, the best answer is likely to choose both. Seeking help from a professional
hypnotherapist can help you learn about hypnosis and begin navigating the world of
hypnotherapy and facilitate major changes in a shorter amount of time. Then, coupling this
practice with a self-hypnosis practice can help you get the most out of your experience and see
greater results. You can engage in shorter, more direct self-hypnotherapy sessions as needed to
supplement your professional hypnotherapist’s results and ultimately facilitate a total change.

As you become more practiced with self-hypnosis, you may begin to discover that you no longer
need as much help from professional hypnotherapists. While seeking professional help in the
face of major, difficult, or stubborn changes may be desirable, you will likely find that you can
facilitate major changes in a shorter time the more you practice. For that reason, you become
your change-maker and influencer. This can make the idea of increasing your skills around self-
hypnosis more desirable and can prove why it is important to begin practicing and taking
advantage of this incredible practice as soon as possible.
 Chapter 10 Gastric Band Hypnosis And Gastric Band
Weight Loss Surgery
Astomach band is a silicone flexible apparatus utilized in weight reduction medical procedure.
To create a modest pack over the gadget, the band is put around the upper part of the belly. This

The general objective of the gastric band is to encourage a more beneficial nourishment
association. If your subliminal thinks you have a gastric band fitted, your stomach will believe its
lower. This, thus, makes your mind send messages that, in the wake of devouring less
nourishment, you are finished.
Perceiving when you are physically finished can be hard for the individuals who gorge. At times
we eat only for taste (or comfort), overlooking whether we are physically hungry or not. In
developing smart dieting works on, figuring out how to perceive the physical vibes of being
ravenous and being finished is helpful.
In contrast to gastric band medical procedures, there are no physical symptoms in the virtual

Using Hypnosis To Control Food Portions
Portion control can assume a noteworthy job in achieving your objectives for wellbeing and
weight. You may, as of now, eat all the right sustenance and practice appropriately. In any case,
in case regardless you're conveying overabundance weight, it may be because you're simply
expending excessively. Control of segments can make a huge distinction.
Great portion control won't just thin you down; it will give you more vitality. Eating the right
amount will suggest that your body needs to work more enthusiastically to process superfluous
surplus nourishment.
With regards to getting your eating regimen right and shedding surplus fat, the amount is as
fundamental as quality. If you have to get thinner, a lot of a decent thing can truly be terrible for
you. However, knowing how, when, and the amount to cut so you can truly begin seeing some
improvement in accomplishing your weight targets can be troublesome.
Why Is Portion Control So Hard To Achieve?

 Chapter 11 Law of Attraction For Hypnosis
 Welcome to this guided meditation, that will allow the law of attraction help you get more fit,
look better, feel healthier, and get the best out of your life. We recommend you tune in to this
recording for 21 days straight to open the genuine intensity of the Law of Attraction standards. If
you haven’t used a guided meditation or hypnosis tape previously, realize what is happening to
your body throughout this recording. When you are in the state of self-hypnosis, you are not
asleep, nor are you unconscious. You’re aware of your environmental factors, and no one can
coerce you into doing anything you would prefer not to. So don’t stress over any external
distractions or clamors because you will before long have the option to relax completely. You are
always in total control of yourself. I will say a progression of prompts; you can hear the
recommendations and prompts as you wish.

Allow yourself to absorb the proposals without intuition or attempting to analyze them. And
don’t stress if your mind drifts off elsewhere. You will, at present, gain a positive outcome from
the prompts, and if you end up concentrating on different thoughts, you can gradually remind
yourself to concentrate just on my voice and what I am saying. And don’t stress if you don’t
think you are “getting it” or doing it right, especially if this is your first time. There is no correct
way to approach this. Allow yourself to feel comfortable. While sitting or resting, take a full
breath, and as you exhale, allow your eyes to close and imagine a tree root attached to the base of
your spine. Visualize this root traveling down to the focal point of the earth and anchor that root
in the entire earth. You’re doing great. Allow the core to expand to a size that’s comfortable for
you. Release any pressure, anxiety, negativity, or abundance of vitality down that cord, and you
can release any incomplete undertakings or any undesired individuals who may want your
attention and interest. Release these down the root. Acknowledge any thoughts that may come
into your mind and allow some down to your establishing root.

Take another full breath, hold that breath and exhale through your mouth with a moan, relaxing,
and feeling calm, ever so relaxed. Take another full breath. Again, comfortably filling your
lungs, hold the breath, and as you exhale, allow that remaining pressure and strain to stream out
of your body. You don’t have to hear any outside sounds or anyone else’s voices at this moment.
Appreciate the comfort of drifting into relaxation. This comfort, your comfort, this is the most
important part of the procedure. Allow yourself to give up and relax and now center your
awareness around the muscles at the crown of your head, and feel a relieving wave of relaxation,
spilling out of the highest point of your head, down over your forehead, and gradually streaming
down into your eyebrows.
Moving around the sides of your eyes and tenderly caressing your eyes without lifting a finger.
As you feel yourself gradually drifting further and more profound, allowing your ears to
concentrate only on the sound of my voice feel yourself drifting further and more profound, so
you feel that wave of relaxation descending into your cheeks and the muscles are softening down
a little at a time. Much the same as ice as it softens into the water, your muscles are gradually
becoming liquid as the muscles around your mouth relax and that relaxation streams into your
jaw and mouth. Your tongue and your teeth may feel shivery somewhat. This is normal. Allow
your continuing wave of relaxation stream from the highest point of your head, down and around
the back of your head. Gradually passing around your ears and temples, and on down into your
neck muscles. Muscles liquefy and become liquid.

Continue feeling yourself drifting further and more profound with each breath you take. You’ll
feel marginally more relaxed... and as you relax completely all outside sounds, commotions,
even your thoughts cause you to continue drifting, further, and more profound. And let that ease
stream down into your shoulders and allow it to expand your shoulders as you breathe. Allow
your muscles to give up completely. Notice how considerably more relaxed you are now than
you were a few minutes ago? Your body feels heavier than it did a few minutes ago. This is all
right. As this wave of comfort and relaxation streams across your shoulders and down into your
arms, feel the relaxation moving into each muscle. As you relax and let go, feel the muscles
liquefying like ice into water, and feel how relaxed your shoulders and the back of your neck feel
at this moment. That warm, delicate, shivering inclination moves around and down to your
elbows, down into your forearms and now hovering around your wrists. The relaxation and
comfort and how it eased down onto your hands. Feel it from the very tips of your fingers. The
more relaxed you feel, the increasingly slow your breaths will be. Allow all the pressure and
strain to steadily drain out the tips of your fingers as you relax and let go.

The wave of relaxation spreads from your shoulders, down into the muscles of your back. As you
relax and drift further and more profound, feel that wave travel down your back and into your
chest muscles. Feel yourself relaxing and drifting considerably more profound. That wave of
relaxation streams around your waist now and into your lower half. Gradually moving and
streaming down from your hips and into your thighs and you will feel those muscles dissolving
as you allow yourself to continue relaxing. You may feel pleasant shivering starting at the
highest point of your head, streaming down through your entire body. This is your wave of
relaxation moving through your muscles, and as that wave of relaxation spreads down through
your thighs, down around your knees, bathing your knees without breaking a sweat. On down
into your calves and feel the calf muscles dissolving down completely. As you relax and go
further, feel that relaxation streaming around your ankles.
Gradually circling your ankles without breaking a sweat, this wave moves down to the impact
point of your feet streaming delicately underneath onto the bottoms of your feet, and then
clearing out to the tips of your toes. And now allow any remaining worry to transfer out from the
tips of your feet. Now all your old aches and pains that are filling no valuable need, are no longer
with your body. In a few seconds, I will count down from five. And with each number, your
relaxation level will instantly increase. Try not to battle this, don’t constrain it, and just let it
happen. Here we go. Five: continue breathing and feel yourself sinking further and more
profound down. Four: you are so relaxed at this point. Three: existing and giving up. It feels so
great to give up easily. Two: Getting significantly closer now, peacefully, comfortably relaxed.
And one: you are in a higher state, where your subconscious mind is prepared for success. With
the correct recommendations to your subconscious mind, you can achieve anything you want in
life.
Cash, Fame, Success, Wealth, Happiness, Love;
All of these are conceivable. Your mind is malleable and can accept fresh ideas, which will have
a permanent positive change in your life. Keep in mind; your self-talk creates your reality. I’ll
repeat, self-talk creates your reality. What you say to yourself eventually creates a subconscious
conviction. And this conviction creates an external encounter. You become what you think
about, via the miracle of autosuggestion. And now, I will start the affirmations. I am shedding
pounds at a justified rate, despite all the trouble for me. Individuals always comment about how
great I look. I love myself and the individual I am becoming.

 Chapter 12 Positive Affirmations For Weight Loss Success
The best way to listen to these affirmations is to do so while also doing a breathing exercise.
These are going to help you better focus on the words that are actually being said. You might
want to hold an object as well, such as a stone or a crystal, in order to help keep you better
grounded in the moment.

The first one that you could try involves taking a long and deep breathes in. Count to three as
you take this breath in, and then once you hit four, let it out in a fast and deep exhale. Don’t
repeat this too many times at once or else you run the risk of feeling light-headed but remember
that it is something that can help you feel much better when needing a quick burst of air at any
given moment.

A second breathing exercise that you could try involves taking your right pinky and placing it on
your left nostril. Breathe in for five, and then take your right thumb and place it on your right
nostril, letting your pinky go as you exhale. Repeat this process with the same hand and change
up the hand and nostrils that you inhale/exhale from as well.

What Are Body Goals?

We are currently living in an era where we are completely immersed in popular culture. Because
of this, we are constantly bombarded with images of what the "ideal body" is, thus, we try to
shape our bodies into what we believe is ideal. But should your body goals be the same as the
goals of everyone else?

Sadly, if you focus on having the same body goals as the people you see on runways or in
magazines, you might feel frustrated and dissatisfied with your body all the time. This is not the
best way to live your life. Instead, the most important body goal you may try to have is learning
how to embrace your body even though you're not completely happy with it. This is a lot more
achievable and realistic compared to trying to have the "perfect" body but ruining yourself in the
process. As part of your intuitive eating journey, your goal shouldn't just be about having the
look that you desire but getting the desired feeling of looking good.

The body you have right now is the only body that you will have for the rest of your life.
Therefore, when you're trying to think about your body goals, focus more on your own body, not
the bodies of others. Try to learn how you can feel good about yourself even if your body isn't
considered "ideal" or "perfect." If you can learn how to love your own body and feel comfortable
in your own skin, then it becomes much easier for you to tune into your body to unlock your
intuitive eating potential.

Body goals are the goals you set for your own body. For instance, if you're overweight or obese
and you want to improve your health, then shedding a few pounds until you reach your ideal
weight is a realistic and practical body goal. But if you are already at your ideal weight and you
still want to shed more pounds to have the same body like the models you see in magazines, then
you might start doing things that will affect your body adversely.

To become an intuitive eater, focus more on feeling happy and good about your own body. Come
up with body goals that you know you can achieve. That way, you can be kinder to yourself as
you work to achieve these goals. Take some time to reflect on your thoughts and feelings about
your body then try to think of the body goals that you want to achieve. The more honest you are
with yourself, the more you can think of realistic and achievable goals. Make a list of these goals
and once you have finalized them, you can start working on your health objectives.
What Are Health Objectives?
Once you have a list of body goals, it's now time to think about your health objectives. Health
objectives are a lot like your body goals, but these also involve the steps to take to achieve them.
To achieve your body goals and health objectives, you should always remember to take the right
steps based on logical and ethical reasons. As an intuitive eater, you may want to focus more on
your own habits, behaviors, thoughts, and choices. By doing this, you will learn how to become
more intuitive, especially when it comes to your body and your health. Here are some tips to help
you manage your health as an intuitive eater:

● Think about your goals for proper nutrition

Ultimately, your greatest health objective should be to learn how to "eat better." This may sound
simple, but it does take a lot of time and effort to achieve. If you want to eat better to improve
your health and your body, try to improve your nutrition too. Take a look at your current eating
habits to give you a better idea of whether you are nourishing your body with the nutrients it
needs or not. If you are, keep going! If not, you may want to make better choices without forcing
yourself to change things drastically. It's better to take small steps towards proper nutrition
instead of trying to make huge changes that will make you feel like you're on a diet again.
Remember, it's all about using your intuition.

● Make sure to include proper hydration throughout the day

One of the most effective ways to ensure your health is to drink enough water each day. Drinking
enough water provides your body with so many benefits. It also allows your body to adjust to
your new eating habits as you move towards better health. If you're not used to drinking water,
that's okay. Just try to make a conscious effort to swap out alcoholic, caffeinated or sugary drinks
with this healthy beverage and you're sure to see the difference.

● Eat regularly

If you want to become a healthy, intuitive eater, eating regularly is key. To eat regularly, you
may want to be more conscious of what your body is feeling. If you think it will help, keep a
food journal or even a nutrition app to find out your own eating patterns. After a few days or
weeks of tuning into your body and using these tools, you may come to discover these patterns
that are uniquely yours. By learning these patterns, you can start creating a regular routine. This
is a process that takes time, so you don't have to rush it.

● Start with small portions

While you don't have to control your portions strictly, it's a good idea to start with small portions
whenever you eat. This allows you to eat everything on your plate without having to force
yourself to finish what you have taken. If you still feel hungry after finishing the portion on your
plate, then take another small portion. Keep doing this until you feel full. This is a great way to
practice intuitive eating.

● Focus on what you are eating

Awakening your intuition takes time and practice. When you focus on what you're eating, you
can also focus on what you are feeling. Try to focus on the taste, texture, and even the smell of
each bite you put into your mouth. Try to focus on what the food makes you feel. More
importantly, try to focus on whether you are still hungry, or you are already full. All of these
things will hone your intuition.

● Set goals for the different aspects of your health

When you're thinking of your health objectives, consider your body, your mind, and your overall
well-being. Therefore, you may want to include different kinds of goals and objectives such as:

○ Physical health goals like coming up with a new workout routine and practicing different
breathing exercises.

○ Emotional and mental health goals like establishing a relaxing morning routine and learning
how to meditate.
The goals and objectives you set for yourself would depend on your own needs and on what you
want to improve in your life. You can incorporate these goals into your plan for becoming an
intuitive eater.

● Get enough sleep each night

Never underestimate the importance of a good night's sleep. When you sleep, your body gets the
chance to repair and recover from everything you have gone through each day. No matter how
busy your life is, make sure that you get enough sleep each night—this should be one of your
health objectives.

These are some basic health objectives you can set for yourself. Some of these may apply to your
own life while others won't. As with your body goals, take some time to reflect on what you
want and what you need. Then you can come up with the best objectives to improve all aspects
of your health.
 Chapter 13 Meditation for Creating Positive Energy
Positive energy can sometimes be hard to find. We all have energy within us that exists and is
burning strongly. We just have to learn how to shape that energy into something a little bit more
positive. This positive energy meditation for happiness is going to change the way you think.
You will wake up feeling energized and refreshed, ready to go head to head with anything that
might pose a threat to you during the day. The more that you enable yourself to think positively,
the easier it will be to face life's most significant challenges. As with all other meditations ensure
that you are in a safe and comfortable space as you begin.

Positive Energy Meditation for Happiness

This is a visualization exercise, so make sure that your mind is free from distractions. There's
nothing around you that is going to keep you in any moment other than the present. This moment
is about focusing and concentrating on what is good in your life. Get into your relaxed and
comfortable place. Make sure you can spread your arms and legs so that you feel free. Since this
is a visualization exercise, it's important that we don't keep anything around us tied down to the
present. Let your arms hang loose. This is best practiced at night before falling asleep in bed.

During this time, you are your most relaxed and generally at ease from the burdens of the day.
You will be able to drift off letting these thoughts sink into your mind. In the morning, you will
wake up feeling a renewed sense of self, ready to start a positive and happy day. You can also try
this meditation aside from falling asleep. The point is to make yourself as calm and comfortable
as possible.

You will be creating positive energy within your mind. It is something that's going to radiate
around you. Close your eyes and let your body sink deep into the bed. Make sure that you relax
your body.

And again, relax even further, feeling just how much weight you still carry even after telling
yourself to calm down. Continue to let yourself sink deeper and deeper into a place where you
can be completely relaxed. We regularly go through things that put us in a negative mindset. We
are constantly told to focus on the bad things in life so as not to repeat it and that causes us to
revolve around toxic mentalities.

While there is plenty of negativity out in the world, it is not something that we have to deal with
regularly. We can confront these negative moments head-on rather than letting them be
something that controls our entire life. Close your eyes and drift away. Let your thoughts fall
delicately around you like snowflakes. You don't have to catch these snowflakes; you can simply
watch them fall and collect into piles of snow on the ground. Close your eyes see nothing at all.
Everything is black, calm, peaceful, and relaxed. You are letting go of all energy. At this
moment, you are completely free from any negative thoughts.

Notice your breathing now. Breathe in now for five, four, three, two, one, and breathe out for
one, two, three, four, and five.

Breathe in all the good happy positive and energetic vibes. Breathe out any harmful or toxic
thoughts that you have had in the past. Breathe in through your nose and out through your
mouth. This is going to help keep you concentrated so that you focus only on creating positive
energy rather than ruminating on the negative.

Negative energy is easy to create. You can pick it up all around you. You can walk around
attached to negative energy by the people and things that you come in contact with. At this
moment you are free, you have released yourself from this poisonous mindset.

Instead, you are going to create a positive one. You are a blank slate. You see nothing out in
front of you. Each time a thought comes into your brain, you let it pass by. You don't have to
notice. You don't have to give it your attention. And you don't have to give it that much thought.
Simply push these thoughts out of your mind. Start now by breathing in again. As we countdown
through 10, you're going to be completely relaxed in a place where there's nothing at all. You're
just a body floating freely in a black space

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.

Everything is black in front of you. You will see one small white dot appear. This dot keeps
growing bigger and bigger, brighter, and brighter.

Eventually, you are engulfed in this white dot, that has become a large circle in front of you. It is
nothing but white, clean, positive, immaculate, and beautiful snow. It is soft, and clean. It is
crisp, and gentle. You look down and notice that you were wearing a pure white snowsuit. It's
unlike anything you have ever worn before, and it's immaculate, keeping you extremely warm.
Even though you are surrounded by snow, you don't feel any cold at all.

You have gloves on and thick boots with a nice warm cap so nothing can make you freeze. You
see the white around you and notice how gorgeous it is. It is so peaceful, calm, and serene. In the
past, the snow may have been scary. It can mean icy roads and snowy days. Blizzards can be
hard to live through, and nobody likes dealing with the cold. However, at this moment, you see
all of the beauty. It is like a white blanket that covers the earth.
It reminds you of the shape of the earth. So frequently we look at nature and see the little things,
the trees, plants, rocks, and dirt. But you don't see any of this now. Instead, it is covered by
nothing but a white blanket. Of course, this blanket isn't warm. But the way that it connects
everything gives you a soothing feeling.

You no longer are looking at each aspect. Instead, you see the shape of the earth. You see the tall
trees and the lumps of the hills. You see the rocks, but only the outlines and all of these things as
they're all painted white by the snow. There are a few snowflakes falling around you but it's
nothing dangerous. You can't tell if it actually is snowing, or if these are simply little droplets
being passed through by the wind. You look in front of you and see that there is a small trail that
has been carved out by others before.

It is still covered in snow but not quite as thick of a layer as the rest of the ground. You take a
step forward in front of you, and you see a large mountain. Of course, it is only going to get
harder to climb the higher you go, but you see at the top what incredible sights await you.

You are prepared. It will be a short walk, so you decide to take a step forward. You have all the
tools that you could ever need. Your snowsuit is going to keep you incredibly warm, so you
won't have to worry about frostbite or chills on your body. You have a good hat, and everything
else that is going to make you safe. You don't have to worry about anything. You are so
appreciative of the crystal beauty that's around you. You can see the sun still shining bright,
reflecting against the snow.

If the snow weren't here, you would not need these clothes, and you would still be able to
accomplish the same thing. You are so appreciative of your ability to go for this incredible walk.

You continue to look forward, and stop looking back because it doesn't matter how far you have
come. You will be able to look back eventually as you get closer to the top.

You look ahead and see that you are almost at the top of the mountain. Now, you can see the top
of the white trees peeking through some of the deep snow piles on the ground. You feel the strain
in your legs, but it is refreshing. It is a mild pain that reminds you of how strong you are. It feels
so incredible to remember you are alive.

Finally, you've reached the peak of the mountain. You feel incredibly overwhelmed with beauty.
You look down below you and see all of the amazing things that are covered in a thick blanket of
snow. All of this incredible nature is still going to be there after the snow disappears, and the
warmth comes back, life here will always thrive. Right now, it is just in a resting period. This is
incredibly beautiful. The snow limits us, and that forces us to stay inside and relax. It is a
reminder that just like the trees, we too need periods where we just do nothing.

We need times where we can stay frozen at the moment and not have to focus on living or
thriving. It is okay to simply be content every once in a while. You look down at these trees and
realize how appreciative you were of the struggle of climbing up the entire mountain. These trees
all look so gorgeous beneath you. The thick blanket reminds you of just how powerful the earth
that we live in is. Who could have ever imagined that something so beautiful could come just
from some seeds in some soil?

This site as a reminder that there is value in the struggle. Climbing the mountain isn’t easy, but
looking back on it now that challenge was so easy in retrospect.

This is a metaphor for your life for you then. As you take in this moment, feel the air fill your
lungs. Breathe in through your nose and let the crisp winter air kiss your face with a refreshing
bite.

Breathe out any fear or pain that you have been holding on to. Now here at the top of the
mountain is the exact place that you can finally let go of all the baggage that has been holding
you down. Your negativity has been like a mental chain, keeping you trapped in the same
thinking patterns.

Being on top of this mountain reminds you that you don't have to live this way. There's a vast
world below us, and so much to discover. If we keep ourselves limited by our negative thinking,
then we will never be able to appreciate this moment fully. If you had chosen to turn away from
the mountain and not climb it just because it looks like a steep hill, then you would not be here
now. You would not be at the top of this mountain looking down and seeing all the beauty that's
beneath you.

This is what you are going to use to remind yourself to work through your negative thoughts.
Yes, there's still going to be challenges. You will continue to have moments that aren't the
greatest. There will be times when you wish you could be somewhere else. Remember this
mountain, close your eyes and breathe in, take a deep breath in through your nose and out
through your mouth, and remember the cool fresh air that rejuvenates you. It reminds you that
you are alive. It tells you that you are a fighter. It is the recognition that the struggles we go
through are always going to be worth it in the end.

This beautiful sight is something that you will always cherish. This is going to be a time in your
life that you continue to remember to create positive energy.
Breathe in the fresh air. Breathe out any fear. Breathe in the cool breeze. Breathe out any regret
or resentment.

You sit down on the mountain and appreciate the beauty, the trees, and the way that they move
through the breeze, almost looks as if they're breathing. Continue to breathe in for five and out
for five, in for five and out for five.

Breathe in now for five, four, three, two, one, and breathe out for one, two, three, four, and five.

The night is coming, and you see the sun setting. It is gradually getting darker and darker.

You are always going to use this image as a reminder of the positivity you can create in life. You
no longer fear anything bad happening to you. You know that even the challenges are going to be
something that makes you stronger. In the end, even when the mountain seems too high or too
steep to climb, you will remember the beauty that is waiting for you at the top.

Once you are at the top and able to look down and see just how small each little step was that
you took it will be easier to continue on, even in the most challenging of moments.

Breathe in now for five, four, three, two, one, and breathe out for one, two, three, four, and five.

As we count down from 20, you will be out of this meditation, you will be able to create positive
energy and wake up rejuvenated ready to climb that mountain.

You can now sleep or move on to the next meditation.

Twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten,
nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, and one.
 Chapter 14 Embracing a Healthy Lifestyle
What Foods Should I Avoid?
When you are going on any kind of diet, it is important to make sure that you are avoiding the
right foods. That is why we are going to spend some time looking at the foods that we should
avoid when it comes to the fat-burning diet and the foods we should avoid when it comes to the
low carb diet. Being able to put these two together and learning what foods are good for us and
which ones we need to avoid can make all of the difference in the health benefits that we can get.

Foods to Avoid on the Fat Burning Diet

The first part that we are going to take a look at here is some of the foods that you can work with
when it comes to the fat-burning diet. To start, even though carbs are allowed on this diet plan,
you do need to be careful about the kinds of carbs that you are eating. You want to focus on this
diet with lots of whole grains, whether that is bread or pasta, and you get lots of healthy fruits
and vegetables as well.

However, you do need to avoid a few types of foods during this time, especially if you are on
one of the lower-carb diets. In some of these, you need to avoid things like white and processed
carbs. That means the white pieces of bread and kinds of pasta, and the baked goods and sweets
are all things that we need to avoid when we go through this kind of diet plan as well. Stick with
the healthier options, and you will do a whole lot better when you are on this diet plan.

Another thing to cut out is processed and fast foods. Sure, this taste amazing and can make life a
little bit easier when it comes down to the busy nights with your family. But when you are
working on losing weight and improving your health, and when you are on the fat burning diet,
these are things that you need to avoid. Make sure that you are cutting these out as much as
possible, and if you can, consider just not having them at all.

The beverages that you are allowed to have on this kind of diet plan will vary as well. Things
like water, tea, and milk are the best choices for you to have. You can have a few fruit juices on
occasion, but make sure that they don’t come with a bunch of bad things or extra sugars in them
and consider watering them down to make them a bit better as well. You want to make sure that
you are as hydrated as possible, and avoid things like sodas and pops and all of the sports drinks
and other things that are going to ruin your health.

Remember, both the fat burning diet and the low carb diet are all about helping you to eat foods
that are healthier and wholesome for the whole body. Doing this is going to ensure that you are
set up for success and that you will be able to lose the weight that you want, while also
improving the other aspects of your health. If you are not careful about some of the foods that
you are consuming and you eat the ones that are bad for your body, then you will not be able to
get good health that you need.
Low Carb Diet Foods to Avoid
You will find that there are many similarities in foods that you should avoid between these two
diets, which is going to make them even easier to follow when you go through and use them
well. But often the low carb diet is going to be more restrictive than some of the other options, so
we need to keep that in mind as well.

The first type of food that we need to avoid is the grains and the slices of bread. Throughout the
world, a meal is going to be a common food that many cultures like to eat. There are many types
of loaves of bread that we can enjoy, but many times the amount of carbs in these is going to be
high. Both the food that is manufactured with refined sugars and the whole-grain bread will be
more top in carbs, and when you are on this kind of diet, you will need to cut down on these
because they are likely to hold onto way more carbs than you are supposed to eat during the day.

You will also need to be careful with the amount of fruit that you eat. While this is not
completely off the table, you may find that there are a few types of fruits that will not be
recommended because they are going to come with a higher content of carbs in them. Sweet and
dried fruits are going to be the biggest culprits here. For example, having about .25 cup of dates
will be somewhere between 20 and 33 grams of carbs, but a small banana would have closer to
18 grams.

Most vegetables are going to be fine in moderation, but again, we need to worry about some of
the starchy vegetables that we are eating. The majority of the herbs that we will want to eat are
going to come with higher fiber content, so that is good for helping us to control some of our
levels of blood sugars and for weight loss. But this is not going to extend out to all of the
vegetables that we are looking at. Some of the herbs that are considered starches are going to
contain more carbs than fibers, and that is why we need to limit them as much as possible on this
kind of diet plan.

There are a lot of great vegetables that you can enjoy when it comes to being on a low carb diet,
and you can enjoy them as long as you monitor your carb intake. Some of the vegetables that you
need to watch out for because of the carb content will include things like beets, yams, sweet
potatoes, potatoes, and corn. Some of the better options that you can work with and will provide
you with fewer carbs and more nutrients will include mushrooms, lettuce, cauliflower, avocados,
spinach, and green beans.

There are also a few other grains that we need to watch out for when we are working with the
low carb diet. We want to be careful with pasta even though it comes in a lot of diverse types,
and it is not expensive to work with. It is going to go with a high amount of carbs in it, though,
and this is not a good thing on this kind of diet plan. You will find that a cup of pasta that has
been cooked will be near 40 grams of carbs, and whole wheat is only slightly better with 31
grams of carbs. The best alternative that you can use in your meals for this one is spiralized
vegetables or shirataki noodles.

Cereal should be avoided, as well. Most of these are going to be full of sugar, and that is not
going to do you any favors when you are working with the low carb diet. You will also find that
oatmeal, which is an option that is usually seen as better and healthier than some of the others, is
going to still come in with 28 grams of carbs that we need to worry about.

Next on the list is going to be the juice. This is one of the biggest mistakes that you can make on
this kind of diet plan. Yes, the liquid is going to come in with a few nutrients that we can work
with, but there are a ton of carbs and sugars that we need to deal with, and this is going to cause a
huge increase in our levels of blood sugars along the way.

For example, there are upwards of 48 grams of carbs that are found in every 12 ounces of
unsweetened apple juice. A bottle of regular soda is only going to come in with 39 grams in
comparison. And it gets worse. If you are working with that same size but in grape juice, there
could be up to 60 grams of carbs, which is already above what most low carb diets are going to
allow you for the whole day.

These are going to provide us with a ton of nutritional benefits that are so good for us. These
legumes and beans are going to come with high fiber content, and they are great at helping with
heart complications and inflammation as well. However, we have to remember that they are
going to have a higher amount of carbs.

This doesn’t mean that we need to get rid of the legumes and the beans completely. It is often
going to depend on what we are doing for the rest of the day. Depending on how many carbs you
have in a day, or plan to have, you may be able to eat a small amount of these legumes and
beans. But you need to plan it all out and be careful in the process.

And finally, we are going to need to be careful about the milk that we consume. If you would
like to get some of the good nutrients that your body needs, like the B vitamins, calcium, and
potassium, then we need to make sure that we drink milk. But when we are on a low carb diet, it
is often best to go with a plant-based option or something else. This is because an eight-ounce
serving of milk is going to come in with 12 to 13 grams of carbs that we need to worry about,
and that is never a good thing.

As we can see with both of these diet plans, there are many things that we will need to limit
ourselves on and that we are not allowed to have in the first place any longer. This can make it
hard to follow this kind of diet plan and can cut down on what we can consume. But the good
news is that it does leave us with at one of the delicious and nutritious foods that we can enjoy,
and this is always a good thing. Make sure that before you get started on this kind of eating plan
for some of your own needs.
 Chapter 15 Your Perfect Mіnd Relearning 
 As we have already looked briefly, research supports the idea that carefulness helps individuals
to maintain or achieve weight loss.
Longitudinal research has also found carefulness in helping participants reduce their Body Mass
Index ( BMI) significantly compared to a control group.
For this study, participants were asked to attend four two-hour carefulness workshops daily to
help them understand and use awareness strategies to enhance their health and well-being. Data
were collected on their BMI, physical activity, and mental wellbeing at baseline (before
attending workshops), four months, and six months.
The researchers' workshops were in-depth and encouraged participants to explore their weight
loss journey's emotional and physical purpose.
The guiding principles of healthy eating refer to weight loss when reaching consciousness. Also,
I reviewed the overall content of the workshops used in the above study, and the following
description was developed:
• Identify your values and whether weight loss supports them. Is your weight loss
wish driven personally or socially motivated?
• Start understanding your food-related feelings as just that-thoughts. They need not
always be believed or acted upon.
• Accept that trying to control hunger-related feelings and physical sensations won't
always be successful.
• Learn how to welcome, rather than resist, internal frustration during the weight loss
journey.
• Build a sense of self that enables negative thoughts and emotions around the weight
loss journey to be unattached. Recognize the thoughts, but don't let them dictate how you
physically respond.
• Focus on your values and attach your weight loss targets to those values.
Chocolate mentality: Guided meditation
At first glance, chocolate alertness might sound like activity of self-indulgence.
Recalling that mindfulness has, at its core, a fundamental purpose of fostering self-compassion,
the idea of using chocolate in this way can become an enjoyable and valuable practice (Penman,
2011).
Mindspace has created several resources that can be used within schools to encourage the
practice of mindfulness and are a great starting point for their resources for guided chocolate
meditation.
I summarized their Guide below:
• Choose a small slice of candy or cookies. There can be chocolate that you're
familiar with or something you've never had before—mind to approach the task with enthusiasm
and transparency. Just sit down comfortably.
• Try wrapping chocolate on top of it. Can it make a sound when holding it in your
hand? Which color are these? What is on the wrapper?
• Unwrap the candy, gradually. Be careful how your body starts reacting to the eating
anticipation. What physical sensations do they produce? How do you emotionally react?
• Ward off the urge to eat chocolate. Instead, look at it to its fullness. You should see
what colors? What does it feel like in your hand? Why it smells?
• Take a bite next, but don't just eat it yet. Close your eyes and focus on the full
chocolate sensation on your tongue. Why does this look like it's melting? How does your body
respond, and not just within your mouth?
• Start slowly pushing the chocolate around in your mouth. Start noticing how that
tastes. How does that sense of consistency? How did this change from the time you put it on your
tongue first? What thoughts do you feel?
• Swallow the chocolate once you've considered this, paying attention to the
sensation as it moves down your throat. Does your tongue have a lingering taste? How do your
emotions react to that?
• Put your eyes open. Take a moment to ponder how physically and emotionally, you
feel.
It may sound self-indulgent, as mentioned, but taking this time to enjoy this experience can help
with the ways we think about different foods. If you were always taught to think of chocolate as
'naughty,' you might have begun to indulge in eating it in secret.
This method will help to correct any flawed assumptions about how we were taught to feel about
food and re-establish our enjoyment.
More Mindful Exercises to Try
Guided Meditation Mindfulness with Chocolate is a popular exercise in mindfulness; for obvious
reasons! Yet you needn't use candy. Any fruits, nuts, or other small items work just as well, so
changing up how you do this meditation is a good idea.
If you want to try something new, three more careful eating exercises are listed below:

1. Dinner table Mindful eating script

The following is a short script that you can work through at any meal to practice mindful eating.
• You may use or condense the full script, practice it on your own, or with friends
and family who may also be interested in exploring careful eating. It can make excellent
discussions at the dinner table!
• Breath in. You are now turning your focus toward your hunger or thirst for physical
signals. What does it say to you? Would you feel filled up? If you feel hungry, what is it that
your body wants? What are you thirsty for when you feel thirsty? Keep all your concentration on
those sensations until you hear the answers.
• Bring your attention to the food and drink on the table in front of you and imagine
that for the very first time you see it. What do you immediately notice? What details await
revealing? Engage all the senses and note the various colors, forms, textures, and sizes. What is it
you can smell? How does your body respond to that?
• Take a moment to reflect on what the food had to go through to be on the table
before you start to taste. Where was it growing? How long has it taken for this? What kind of
environments were needed? Let yourself feel gratitude for the process and appreciation for
everyone involved in your food journey to find their way to your table.
• Next, start savoring your food. Choose one object and explore it, adding colors,
textures, and unusual smells. Note any possible emotional or physical responses. If you have any
memories of this goodness? How does that make you feel? When did you taste it first?
• Turn your focus on how your body physically responds. Is your mouth watering?
Does your stomach groan? How does it feel to imagine tasting the food?
• Put food inside your mouth now. Bring your consciousness into your mouth as you
start chewing. Notice the textures and the flavor. Why can these later when you're already
chewing? How does your body respond to that? Swallow the piece of food when you're ready,
and remember the route it takes from your mouth to your stomach.
• Keep your breath stable, and repeat as you eat your meal. If you eat with others
who are also taking part in the exercise, you might want to pause to share your experiences.

2. The Two-Plate Mindful Eating Approach

Mindful eating has been linked to weight loss, and if you are considering using this tool in your
healthy eating journey, this next exercise might help.
The Two-Plate Mindful Eating Solution is particularly useful for those dining circumstances
where, in a buffet restaurant, for example, you do not have much control over what happens on
your plate. We also don't want to settle for food on our social life, and the exercise will help you
find the balance for both.
Here are the effects:
• Next time you 're in a situation where you want to keep your portions under control
and focus more consciously on what you're eating, pick up two plates—one to eat from and
another to use as your 'serving' dish.
• Complete your serving plate with food you wish to eat.
• Take a moment's pause before you continue to serve. Bring your attention back to
the breath and keep yourself grounded at the moment. Pay attention to your physical sensations
when responding to the food that is before you.
• Shift some food from the serving plate to the 'eating' plate. Do not overload your
plate, and listen as much as possible to your intestines. What foods appeal the most? How much
would you like to eat of these?
• Start by cutting the food on your plate, pay attention while you do, concentrating on
the various colors, odors, and textures. Say the mantra as you do this, 'I'm about to eat.'
• Now work your way through the plated food and take comfort, deliberate bites.
Focus once again on the various sensations-physical and emotional-as you eat your food. You
can also repeat the 'I am eating' mantra.
• After finishing eating this initial food plate, take a break. Bring your focus back
into your body and breathe. How are you feeling? What feelings do my gut and stomach give
me? Am I still thirsty, or hungry? Do I need any more food?
• If your body tells you they are still hungry, repeat the above steps. If you feel
satiated, you should take away the rest of the food on the serving tray.
3. Where Is My Food From? Reflection Training
It is a perfect exercise of mindfulness to use for children to help them (and you) become more
aware and conscious of where food comes from. Practicing appreciation is a central component
of mindfulness, so it makes sense to integrate that into mindful eating will help us become more
aware and thankful for our meals.
Here are a few ways of learning the concept:
• Start by talking to your children about their food thoughts in a more general way. Questions for
discovery could include:
 Where's your food coming from?
 How is your food growing, and what do you think it needs to help it grow?
 When did the food arrive in the supermarket?
 Why do you think those things are important to think about?
• Use some of its answers to improve your next activities. Before this, you may want to do some
work yourself, or you may want to use it as a learning tool that you share. May include:
Exploration events
 A visit to the local farmers ' market to ask farmers where they live and produce sellers,
how they grow their favorite foods, and how long it takes.
 A visit to a fruit orchard to pick up your fruit and learn how the fruit grows, what seasons
it's best to eat in, and ask the staff questions.
 Plan to make more scratched meals, such as sauces, cakes, and biscuits, to explore the
'making' aspect of various foods.
 Check where your favorite food is in the fruit and vegetable aisle or on the back of the
packets at your local supermarket-is is it locally grown or far away?
 Start a patch of vegetables in the garden or indoor herb garden to explore the growing
things yourself.
 Next time you 're having a meal, encourage ongoing reflection, and continue the
conversation. When you have selected or grown fruit and vegetables, practice a moment of
appreciation or celebration.
