All of us have a lack of energy now and again. That trip to the gym or mile ride on the bicycle can look not so friendly after a hard day at work. You are already tired, stressed and anxiety ridden about getting in those shorts in front of the entire community.

There is an easier way to find the motivation and get busy on your exercise regimen. What we are talking about is the use of exercise motivation hypnosis. If you are looking for that extra little push, hypnosis is your answer.

Hypnosis is a type of treatment that allows you to discover the inner working of your mind and soul. Our brains are made up of two parts, one is the conscious mind and the other is the unconscious mind. The conscious mind is what keeps you logical and thinking about the consequences of your actions. It prevents you from saying the wrong thing or acting out your primate urges.

On the other hand the unconscious mind is not a social tool. The unconscious mind makes up the majority of the brain and contains all the experiences, scripting and internal feelings from throughout your life.

Over the years we have heard and seen many negative things that can cause the unconscious mind to contain errors and faulty thoughts. These faulty thoughts lead to harmful behavior, such as over eating, drinking or what ever your vice is.

Hypnosis works to change the internal scripting in the brain allowing you to follow a hypnosis diet. A hypnosis diet can be defined as the tremendous motivation and lack of craving that you have once entering into hypnosis. This is because during the hypnotherapy you are changing the way that you think and what you are craving. Just as the hypnosis diet works the same is true for weight loss hypnosis. Just because you are working on one area does not mean that you are neglecting another. What is meant by the statement is that when you are working on your motivation or exercise pattern with hypnosis you may also open up doors to other negative issues that can be resolved. When these issues are resolved you will be impressed with how you lose weight with hypnosis.

Therapists have been using hypnosis for hundreds of years to help individuals achieve their goals. Hypnosis is a very important tool that can help individuals with all the issues that they face within their life. Whether it be reducing negative thoughts or helping them dispel irrational beliefs that hold their goals and dreams just outside of their grasp.

The success comes in the fact that the treatment focuses on the individual and their personal unconscious mind. No two people are the same, so a fad diet or general diet sets you up for failure. Weight loss hypnosis shows results by those participating and laboratory tests as well. While individuals were under hypnosis there brain activities were monitored with high tech machinery. The results were phenomenal; the brain was shown to be active and highly suggestive. That is the reason that hypnosis is so effective, your mind is suggestive and soaking up the information that is being put back in.

The hypnotist has been trained to make suggestions that are not only healthy, but will also change those faulty thoughts and feelings. This in turn causes you to crave less, feel better, and increased motivation therefore losing the weight.

If you are looking for an all natural product that changes your life and the way you think, hypnosis is right for you. Weight loss hypnosis can help you change the way you feel about yourself and eliminate those negative thoughts that you feed yourself everyday. Your attitude must change for you to be successful at losing weight and keeping it off. The most important part of your body is your brain. The brain is responsible for every movement, action and thought.

It is extremely important to take care of yourself. Hypnosis can assist you with learning who you are and why you behave the way that you do. That is the key to discovering what is holding you back whether it be motivation, weight loss or changing your habits, hypnosis is the key!

The escalation of obesity rates in this country has sparked a flurry of activity among both serious researchers and charlatans to discover the perfect weight loss method. A recent study of four diets revealed that the key to weight loss success isn’t the diet, but how closely you follow it. Investigators from Tufts-New England Medical Center (Journal of the American Medical Association, January 2005) have determined in a study of four popular diets that the key to successful weight loss is not the diet itself, but actually following the diet. In this one-year study of 160 overweight adults, the researchers split people into four diet groups:

· Weight Watchers (low calorie)

· The Zone Diet (low glycemic index)

· The Ornish Diet (low fat)

· The Atkins Diet (low carb)

The conclusion of the investigation was that all of these diets worked when the participants in the study followed them. The problem is that less than one in four were able to stay on their given diet for just this one year.

It should be noted that the hardest diet to follow was Atkins, followed by the Ornish Diet, but according to the authors of the study, “no single diet produced satisfactory adherence rates.” Hypnosis has been recognized as a both a method for helping people to adhere to their diets, and for re-training the mind to “think” like a lean person, in order to be able to give up dieting completely and to develop healthy eating habits that parallel the eating habits of lean people.

That being said, wild and exaggerated claims abound regarding hypnosis as it one of the more appealing methods dangled before the eyes of those who are hungry for a seemingly easy solution to a complex problem.

A careful review of the scientific literatures exposes many of the claims about weight loss through hypnosis on the internet as overly optimistic at best and openly fraudulent at worst.

Considerable controversy swirls around the mechanisms by which hypnosis actually contributes to weight loss. Leon (1976) suggested that hypnosis can help obese people team new healthier eating patterns and retain them. One author remarked that the hypnotic state is characterized by heightened concentration, suggestibility, and relaxation (Mott, 1982). Certain individuals are thought to be capable of achieving this state more readily than others. A so-called hypnotic “induction” whereby a hypnotist using certain procedures to bring an individual into the hypnotic state is not a prerequisite for achieving the state (Mott, 1982). Hypnosis, contrary to the claims of some intemet advertisers cannot magically reprogram people’s minds. In short, methods of hypnosis run the gamut from simple relaxation techniques to formal inductions administered by hypnotists, but should not be considered supernatural in its effects.

Studies showing weight loss as a result of hypnosis alone are few in number and suffer from methodological problems. Andersen (1985) reported that following 8 weekly treatment sessions and 12 weeks of practicing self-hypnosis subjects lost an average of 20.2 pounds. Cochrane and Friesen (1986) concluded that moderate weight loss was obtained by subjects using hypnosis. The experimental group, lost more weight than the controls and maintained the weight loss at a six month follow-up.

Mott (1982) stated that “although hypnosis is sometimes referred to as a method of treatment, it is more accurate to regard hypnosis as a facilitator of a number of different treatment methods.” The study concludes that the use of hypnosis for a moderate weight loss is effective using hypnotherapy. Hypnosis Plus Behavioral Weight Management A number of studies indicate that hypnosis combined with a behavioral weight management program contributes significantly to weight loss. Bolocofsky, Spinler, and Coulthard-Morris (1985) revealed that the addition of hypnosis to a behavioral program designed to alter eating patterns increased the amount of weight loss at 8-month and 2year follow-ups. Both the behavioral and hypnosis programs were tailored to each subject individually in the study. Bolocofsky et al. (1984) acknowledged that “the less a person weighed at the start of the program the more likely he was to lose weight and maintain the reduction”. Hypnosis combined with behavioral weight management seems to be more effective for small amounts of weight loss. Another study of 45 females found that supplementing a basic self-management program with hypnosis resulted in a slightly greater amount of weight loss at a 3-month follow-up (Barabasz and Spiegel, 1989). The group for which individualized hypnotic suggestions were developed lost more weight than those exposed only to a group procedure. Kirsch (1996) noted a weight loss of 6.00 pounds without hypnosis and 11.83 pounds with hypnosis based on a meta-analysis of six studies. Allison and Faith (1996), however, disagreed and maintained that hypnosis only enhances cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy slightly if at all. Long-term individualized hypnosis combined with a behavioral weight management program appears to contribute to modest weight loss and helps maintain it.

Hypnosis operates mainly as a way to increase participants’ attention to suggestions of behavioral programs as well as to reinforce their weight loss. Studies using behavioral treatments successfully “typically have developed incentive systems to bridge the gap between the short-term -reinforcers provided during treatment and long-term goal of weight reduction” (Bolocofsky et al., 1985). Hypnosis can fulfill this role by stepping in as a psychological reinforcer. Hypnosis may assist subjects in learning positive eating behaviors and creating healthy long-term patterns of food intake. Subjects are then more likely to incorporate the rules of a particular program into their behavioral regimes (Bolocofsky, 1985). Kroger (1970) points out the similarities between hypnosis and behavioral treatments which share an emphasis on visualization and imagination. The literature suggests that hypnosis is an ideal addition to behavioral weight management programs which tend to need supplementation to achieve long-term results.

The Hodgepodge Problem in Weight Loss Studies The use of subjects of varying ages and backgrounds represents one challenge that plagues studies of hypnosis as a useful treatment for weight loss. Andersen (1985) utilized subjects ranging in age from 21-56 years, a considerable spread. Subjects in another study ranged in age from 17 to 67 resulting in considerable potential differences between the control group and the hypnosis group (Bolocofsky et al., 1985). The fact that subjects were not matched with regard to age could exaggerate results of weight loss as a result of hypnosis that may more accurately be attributed to age differences. McCabe, Jupp, and Collins (I985) suggested a tendency for younger women to drop out of weight loss programs relative to older women leading to a possible masking of potential effects of age. Bolocofsky et al. (1984) indicated that successful hypnotic weight loss participants were higher in self-control, weighed less at the start of the study, married, and more expressive. A wide variety of factors influence whether a given subject will lose weight through a hypnotic weight loss program. Anderson (1985) cites the absence of matched subjects as a weakness in her experiment. More studies with subjects closely matched on various characteristics should be conducted to substantiate claims about the effectiveness of hypnosis for weight loss when combined with a behavioral program.

Most studies require weekly consultation with a hypnotist for 8 weeks or more in addition to self-hypnosis (Bolocofsky et al., 1984; Bolocofsky et al., 1985, Andersen, 1985; Cochrane & Friesen, 1986; McCabe et al., 1985). Internet advertisers who claim weight loss will occur following a single hypnotic session, especially a group hypnotic session, are frauds selling dreams to desperate customers. Allison and Faith (1996) underscore that “there is currently no panacea for the treatment of obesity and hypnosis is no exception”. Treatment using hypnosis then is not a quick and easy way out of weight troubles. In order to achieve any benefits from its use, hypnosis must be practiced on a regular basis for a significant period of time.

Conclusions and Limitations

Hypnosis has been shown to be an effective treatment for low to moderate amounts of weight loss. One qualification of this statement is that the hypnotic program should be tailored to each individual. Hypnosis is a process by which an individual enters a state of relaxation and heightened suggestibility, Transformation of the brain through some mysterious process defines only the hypnosis of pseudoscientists. Quick-fix hypnosis is probably much less effective than an 8 week program using both in-session hypnosis, at-home self-hypnosis, and behavioral weight management. The only people who claim hypnosis is easy, simple, and quick are those trying to sell people on their program. The largest obstacle in weight loss is its long-term retention, but follow-ups of hypnosis as a weight loss treatment have been conducted at the longest after two years. Weight loss tapes lack scientific evidence to support their success and should be purchased with this knowledge in mind. Weight loss through hypnosis has been largely ignored by scientists and more studies with control groups and large subject pools are required to understand its action and import.

Pamela L. Wynn asked:


Yes. It’s true! You can create anything you want simply by choosing your thoughts accordingly. So why not choose thoughts of being thin? Now I don’t mean to say this is easy, however with practice and repetition it will become easier in time. We are all creatures of habit. We want to be where we feel safe and comfortable, which is exactly where we are. So the hard part is getting out of that safe zone. You will have to work on controlling your thoughts. Most people let their thoughts control them and are not even aware of that!

So, how do you control your thoughts? There are several ways to do this and several books to tell you how. Obviously, I can’t list them all for you, but my favorite is by playing a perfectly legitimate trick on your subconscious by telling it your desires as if they are already fact! Say it out loud, with full belief that it is so. Do this repeatedly as much as often. Soon it will become natural for you. Consider your mind to be a garden. Your positive thoughts will produce beautiful flowers and trees, while the negative ones will only produce more weeds. You are the gardener, which do you prefer?

So my secret to dieting is believing you are already thin, and you have the most perfect metabolism! It allows you to eat whatever you want whenever you want. Now to me, that’s comfortable! Maybe lying on the sofa or bed in my comfy clothes eating cookies and milk. There really is no harm in that except for a few crumbs… I actually believe cookies can be good for you unless you’re eating an obscene amount of them. Then again, I also believe I can eat whatever I want and I will never put on extra weight. I truly believe this and it is so. I do have trouble finding clothes in a size zero at times, but considering the alternative, I can live with that.

However, most people are convinced if you do that you will gain $*#@ pounds over night! Now there is the real problem…you believe it, therefore your subconscious picks it up as fact, and makes it so! For example, some women who become pregnant immediately begin to think of themselves as fat. It starts on day one when they begin picturing how they will look in a few months time, and those thoughts continue to grow as does their body. The reason no one will tell you this is that it’s so controversial. It is extremely hard for most to accept, and I don’t blame them. You may be hating me right now as you read this or thinking I’m crazy, or worse. It is a very hard concept to grasp, especially if you’re already over weight. But the truth is anyone can do this. If you are going to lose weight, you have to start somewhere. Why not start by believing not only that you will lose weight, but that you already have! And you will lose more everyday until you reached your perfect size. Post pictures of yourself all throughout your home when you were that size. It will help with your visualizations. We always think in pictures, so you always want to picture yourself as thin and seeing pictures constantly will just make it easier.

You already know about diet and exercise. This is very important to every human being. You want to eat healthy foods because you love your body. This is not a chore…fruits, vegetables, seafood, pasta, bread; it’s all good for you when taken in moderation. I suggest eating lots of little snacks. This way you are always satisfied, and it keeps your metabolism running, so it won’t slow down, and you won’t have to restart it. The more it gets used, the better it works! And then exercise! I can’t state enough the importance of this. Get plenty of exercise! The more, the better, the key to this is… “Have FUN with it!” Only do what you like to do anyway. Go for a walk, join a gym, there you can swim, use special equipments, meet people, etc. Take classes in karate, yoga, and dance? The list just goes on and on. Maybe play tennis. It’s great if you can have a friend do this with you, if not it will open you up to meeting more people who share in these activities. Therefore, make new friends.

This brings me to the last part of this great secret. Remain happy by keeping good thoughts, and keeping busy with activities you enjoy doing. By keeping active you are bound to eat less anyway, and those happy thoughts will only create more of them. “That’s the law of attraction.” Emotions blended with our thoughts helps to manifest them quicker. Love is the most powerful emotion of all. Ever notice when someone falls in love for the first time, they immediately begin to lose weight? Faith is another strong one. Again, thoughts mixed with emotions work best.

Back to this being so controversial, I want to make sure we are clear in what I’m saying. After all, “The Secret” barely touches on this subject and they still received a lot of heat for it. To be honest, I’m a little apprehensive of whether or not I will submit this article. Then again, I would like to think if “I just help one person it will be worth it.”

So Here Are My Top Ten Dieting Secrets In Brief:

1) Always think of yourself as the perfect weight. Picture this in your mind and throughout your home.

2) Eat a well balanced diet. Fruits, vegetables, pastas, breads, cheese, etc. Enjoy all the food groups, only spread them throughout the day.

3) Make time for breakfast. People who eat breakfast consume 100 fewer calories a day than those who skip it.

4) Eat everything in moderation. One donut is fine; you don’t need to eat the whole box! But do try to have lots of healthy snacks too! It is better to have lots of small meals than one large one, or in some casee THREE!

5) Get plenty of exercise! Just have fun with it, raise your adrenaline by doing more of the activities you already enjoy, or try some new ones you may like. Anything is worth trying once.

6) Be happy! Thoughts mixed with good feelings will manifest quicker. Happiness produces endorphins; same as exercise. By focusing on your inner fullfillment, it takes your mind off dieting, which is what you want.

7) Replace regular dairy with soy in your morning cereal and coffee to help burn extra calories all day. The milk contains a protein that recent animal studies hint can help with weight loss by killing fat cells.

8) Learn some basic yoga. The importance of yoga is that it aids in mind , body, and spirit all working together. This is also the key to happiness, and you don’t have to do a full routine to achieve this. You can still reap benefits by spending just a few minutes a day…

9) Drink plenty of water! Do not skimp on this one. Not only is water the most vital ingredient of your body, it keeps away hunger, and is also great for your complexion!

10) Watch less television. It is the comercials you want to avoid, and the boredom. If you are watching T.V. just to pass time, try reading a book instead. You will gain much better results by stimulating your mind and spirit while giving your body some well deserved rest.

Alan B. Densky, CH asked:


The South Beach diet is one of the most widely used ways to lose weight today. It is based around diet and lifestyle changes that help you steadily lose weight. By cutting out “bad” fats and carbohydrates and having plenty of “good” ones, dieters can take weight off without feeling deprived or sacrificing their health.

There are three stages in the diet program. During the first phase, dieters avoid all carbohydrates except for vegetables. Although many foods are restricted, dieters still have a wide range of foods they can eat. The first phase is the most difficult phase, but also the shortest since it only takes fourteen days. Dieters can expect to lose around ten pounds during this time.

In phase two, dieters begin incorporating the previously banned carb-rich foods into their meals. Dieters are expected to lose 1 to 2 pounds each week while steadily raising the volume of carbohydrates they eat. The second phase lasts until dieters attain their target weight.

The third phase is the maintenance phase. Dieters utilize their healthy eating strategies from phase two to maintain their goal weight throughout the duration of their lives. If dieters start to put on weight, they may go back to the first phase of the diet.

It is likely that you have seen pre-prepared South Beach meals and snacks sold in stores. These items are handy, but you do not need to buy them in order to follow the diet. You only need to commit to the different general guidelines for each phase of the diet.

During phase one of the diet, you are permitted to consume lean meats, such as turkey, chicken, and fish, eggs, most vegetables, nuts, and a limited amount of dairy products. Fruit juices and fruit are not eaten during this phase because they are high in sugar. Also banned are all carbohydrates, fatty cuts of meat, alcohol, and a few vegetables that are rather high in sugar content, such as corn. The point of this phase is to ban “bad” carbohydrates from your diet and initiate the process of losing weight.

During the second phase, dieters gradually reintroduce fruit, whole grains, and other banned foods into their diet. In the process, dieters learn how to adjust their diet to maintain a desirable weight. Once this is successfully accomplished, the diet moves into the life maintenance phase, in which dieters attempt to maintain the healthy habits that brought them to their desired weight.

The factor for success with the South Beach program is committing to eating healthy. Although that appears easy, this diet program and most other diet programs stop working because dieters abandon the diet before the program can achieve results. The challenges that most dieters have with weight loss often result from deep-rooted issues such as a lack of drive to lose weight, a habit of binge eating, or out-of-control appetite. The good thing is that all of these issues can be resolved with techniques that anyone can learn from a high quality hypnotherapy weight loss CD program.

To treat a lack of motivation, a technique from a technology called Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) will induce a strong desire to stick to your dieting goals.

To begin, dieters pinpoint precisely what it is that is most important to them, as a person. This is called their “highly valued criteria.” Then, NLP techniques are applied to make the dieters feel that by losing weight, their highly valued criteria will become enhanced. An alternative is to make the dieter feel that if they do not lose weight, their highly valued criteria will be placed in jeopardy.

Motivation comes from what we believe in, not from logic! So in the previous case, let us say that the dieter’s most highly valued desire is that the dieter’s children are happy and safe. Using an NLP tool called Submodalities, we can guide the dieter into feeling that if she or he is unable to lose weight, the children will be condemned to emulating their parent and they will be overweight and unhappy. This type of belief will provide a strong desire and feeling to stick to a diet and take the weight off.

Several NLP techniques can help to reduce or even completely remove the urges and cravings that prompt one to eat too much. This works very well to help dieters stick to the first and most challenging weeks of the South Beach diet. Furthermore, helps dieters commit to an exercise program, which will increase the usefulness of any diet program.

Stress is an issue that often drives people to eat too much or stop paying attention to their health, but stress-relief is offered by both hypnosis and NLP techniques. One such tool is called the NLP Flash. With this technique, having the unconscious use stressful thoughts as triggers for relaxing thoughts relieves the stress that causes the impulse to eat excessively.

Out-of-control eating habits can also cause people to put on weight. A lot of people have seemingly unmanageable eating habits because over the years, they have developed a “conditioned response” to eat under certain circumstances. For example, many of us snack on junk food in front of the television even though we aren’t actually hungry. The good thing is, hypnosis and NLP both have techniques that can quickly eliminate these conditioned responses. These techniques eliminate the appetite without drugs or pills.

By targeting the underlying problems that prevent people from shedding pounds, NLP and hypnosis has helped many people finally get in the best shape of their lives. When used with the South Beach plan, dieters may enjoy easy weight loss and success at achieving their fitness goals.

Alan B. Densky, CH asked:


The Suddenly Slim plan is an herb-based weight loss program that offers a fast method to shed pounds using meal replacement shakes, pills, and supplements. This diet claims that within ten days, it can increase the metabolism to make the body burn calories and shed excess weight without altering diet or exercise habits.

The products used in this diet plan have a variety of herbal extracts often found in herbal-based weight loss products. The diet plan claims that the herbal extracts work by reducing the appetite, increasing energy levels and metabolic rate, and cleansing the body in a detoxification process.

The diet lasts for only ten days, during which the dieter consumes diet shakes and takes diet pills. The shakes are meant to satisfy and eliminate hunger and provide the body with essential nutrition. The diet supplements and pills include ingredients such as caffeine, green tea, and soy protein to promote health and losing weight.

Before trying any herbal supplement or weight loss drug, it is best to ask your doctor about the health risks of the diet and whether it is the right plan for you. Many ingredients may have beneficial health effects, but as with any drug, there are associated health risks. One such example is with pills that contain the diet drug Ephedra, which is banned in the US due to health risks (recent formulations of Suddenly Slim products have substituted Ephedra with bitter orange).

The Suddenly Slim diet is often considered to be a “fad diet” that works for some but not all. One of the reasons this diet can fail is because it is almost impossible to achieve long-lasting weight loss in only ten days. Many people on the Suddenly Slim diet plan, report losing weight but end up regaining it after the diet is over. For most people, it takes dedication and lifestyle changes to permanently keep weight off. Usually, long-term commitments such as good eating habits and regular exercise will lead to weight loss.

Unfortunately, many overweight people have a tough time maintaining a healthy lifestyle for keeping weight off. Many struggle to lose weight because they suffer from out-of-control appetites, emotional stress, strong food cravings, or a lack of motivation. Since these are psychological or “thought-based” problems, hypnotherapy has been shown to be an effective weight loss tool that helps eliminate these issues and helps people lose weight on their own.

One of the greatest uses for hypnosis is for appetite suppression. Hypnotic therapy works using the unconscious mind to treat the mental causes of an out-of-control appetite. Many people cannot seem to control their appetites because they are “emotional eaters,” who eat in response to their emotions, such as when they are angry or bored. Hypnosis breaks the unconscious link between our feelings and eating to free emotional eaters from the urge to overeat.

Another reason why an individual may have an out-of-control appetite is because the individual is unconsciously “conditioned” to eat in certain scenarios. For example, it is easy to “veg out” in front of the television and eat a ton of junk food, even when you aren’t really hungry. Hypnotic therapy helps re-train the unconscious mind to remove the urge to mindlessly overeat, resulting in appetite control without pills.

Hypnotic therapy is also an effective tool for overcoming stress. Stress and anxiety often cause people to overeat, or reduces their drive to exercise and care for their own health. Hypnotherapy techniques, especially the newer forms called Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), can help you keep an optimistic frame of mind and deal with stress in a way that promotes your health and a stress-free life.

A lack of motivation is another serious problem that stands between many dieters and success. Hypnosis therapy and NLP techniques are the answer for supplying motivation. First, you think about and identify what is most important in your life. Then you take advantage of NLP to make yourself think that the important things in your life will enjoy gains if you exercise and enhance your health and your looks. This lets you stay powerfully motivated to exercise and tone your body.

Anyone can learn hypnosis techniques and NLP from the right hypnosis weight loss CD program. Hypnosis weight loss CDs use the remarkable abilities of the unconscious mind to let dieters take off weight. By eliminating cravings and urges to overeat, the appetite is controlled in a non-invasive, effective way. Correctly developed hypnosis therapy will easily increase one’s drive to exercise and help achieve one’s weight loss goals. Because weight loss hypnotherapy is excellent at helping dieters to lose weight naturally and for good, it has become an immensely popular weight loss aid that works for everyone.

Self hypnosis is simple and can be used throughout the day to enable your diet plan to work better for you. Hypnosis enables weight loss so that you don’t have to battle with your cravings and hunger, or go through the anguish of denying yourself. Hypnosis changes your mindset by continually feeding positive thoughts into your subconscious mind and reprogramming the way you feel about food. When you use hypnosis and diet together, diets that seemed impossible are now simpler and easier to follow because your relationship with food is now changed.

With hypnosis and diet, the conflict between what you want and what you actually do is now solved. It’s easier and more satisfying to make healthy choices.

The following are the benefits achieved by hypnosis and diet:

  • Reduces the urge to overeat and cravings for unhealthy foods.
  • Increases confidence and self-empowerment, increasing the feeling that you can be successful.
  • Enhances positive self-image.
  • Reduces stress levels, so you aren’t reaching for food when you aren’t hungry.
  • Increases energy and good feelings about yourself.
  • Increases motivation.
