Automatically a person practicing self hypnosis for weight loss will be able to find interest in healthy food and a routine exercise regime that will take him to his ultimate desire.
But research has also proven beyond a doubt that very few people can stick to their diet because their appetite is out of control.
So to be successful with a diet,weight loss hypnosis can be very effective.
Webster's Dictionary defines "Appetite" as: "The desire for gratification of some want, craving, or passion." So "appetite" is eating and drinking for relaxation and pleasure.
Don't confuse appetite with hunger. Hunger is defined as "The body's call for nourishment." In other words, when the body needs food, that's when you feel authentic hunger. By that definition, it is practically impossible to "be hungry" if you are overweight.
However, it is possible for you to have feelings that you interpret as "hunger." And the stomach contracting in expectation of being fed causes those feelings.
When you were a baby and you got restless, your mother would put a bottle into your mouth to pacify you. You would get distracted, become peaceful, and often fall asleep. That sequence of events was repeated hundreds of times so that your unconscious mind was programmed: When something goes into your mouth, you get relaxation and pleasure from it.
Now that you are a grownup, if you feel upset, you crave something in your mouth for relaxation and pleasure - food!
People Also Get Cravings and Urges Because Of Conditioning.
When you associate eating with any other behavior, the other behavior will trigger cravings for food and a feeling of urgency to eat. This is called a conditioned response. For example: If you eat when you watch a movie, you will automatically get an urge to eat each time you go to the movies.
What About Compulsive Overeaters Who Eat Because Of Emotional Reasons?
A compulsion is defined as an "irresistible impulse." One of the presuppositions of NLP is: There is a positive intention behind all behaviors. In other words, our unconscious mind only motivates behaviors that benefit or protect us in some way. In NLP terms, we say that being fat is a behavior when it provides a positive outcome or intention.
You may be wondering what the possible positive outcomes of being fat are. The list of possible positive outcomes is as long as the list of people who are overweight. But I'll give you a classic example: A person gets their heart broken in a relationship. So to protect the self from getting the heart broken again, the unconscious motivates the self to get fat to keep the self out of relationships and prevent another broken heart.
A big secret to getting rid of your appetite is called reframing. With an NLP Reframe, we respect the fact that the unconscious mind is motivating us to consume extra food for relaxation and pleasure. And if we are eating compulsively because being fat is protecting us, we respect that also.
In a Neuro-Linguistic Programming six-step reframe, we bargain with our unconscious mind. In the case of eating for relaxation and pleasure, we ask our unconscious to assume the responsibility for substituting some alternate behaviors. The substituted behaviors must be as effective and available at providing the same relaxation and pleasure. But they must also be more consciously acceptable to us. When the unconscious is motivating us into alternate behaviors that provide the relaxation and pleasure that we require - we lose our appetite on this score.
If you are a compulsive overeater, we do an additional reframe. We ask your unconscious to assume the responsibility for making us substitute new behaviors in place of being overweight. These new behaviors must be as effective and available at providing the same positive outcomes. But they must be activities that are more consciously acceptable to you. When your unconscious is motivating you into alternate behaviors that provide the same outcomes that you require, you lose the compulsion to overeat.
As far as feeling cravings because of conditioning (conditioned responses), we utilize various hypnotic and NLP techniques that erase or "extinguish" those conditioned responses. That breaks the connection between the behaviors, and eliminates the cravings and urges.
When your appetite has been eliminated, and any compulsion to overeat has been overcome, you can easily stick to any type of healthful diet indefinitely so that it becomes a permanent lifestyle change.
