Weight Loss

Many people are unhappy about their weight and want to lose weight to improve the way they look and feel, both physically and psychologically. Hypnotherapy is a fantastic aid to help you lose weight. I offer three types of therapy for weight loss and they work in very different ways, so the choice of therapy depends on your personal needs.

Losing Weight with the help of - Suggestion Therapy

Suggestion therapy is perfect for you, if you have made the decision to lose weight and are ready to either embark on a sensible diet or are ready to change your eating habits for good. It works by helping you to feel good about yourself, keeping you focused on the positive aspects of your vision and your achievements, but most importantly it aids your self control and moves you on from unhelpful thought patterns.

It is not a magical answer and a good amount of effort and will- power on your part will still be required, however it does turn the whole dieting process into a much more positive and enjoyable experience, which means that it's much more likely to be successful. I use a combination of positive suggestions, visualisations, psychology and NLP, under hypnosis, which my clients have found has kept them on their road to successful weight loss. This is achieved in just two sessions with me and a CD to use at home.

Losing Weight with the help of - Gastric Band Suggestion Therapy

This takes suggestion therapy that bit further and utilizes the power of the mind over the body, by suggesting that you have had a gastric band fitted. Your subconscious and your stomach will believe that a gastric band is in place. Consciously you will know there is not.
Your stomach will think it's golf ball sized, so you will see the size of food on your plate and subconsciously relate that to how much you can physically eat and how full it will makes you feel. Once full, your reduced stomach will empty slowly due to the restriction of the band, hence remaining satisfied for longer. So it will be your subconscious that activates the cessation sensors in stomach.

This therapy takes two to four sessions with me and includes a CD to use at home.

A clients comments:"Being one of lifes sceptics I wasn't at all sure if hypnotherapy would work for me. How wrong was I! From the first session I noticed a change in my attitude to food, I stopped thinking about it. Unlike all previous diets when I spent all my time thinking about what I could and couldn't eat and when I could eat it, this was different. I didn't feel hungry and carried on eating "normal" food just in smaller portions - and being a working Mum this meant meal planning was easy, I steadily lost 2/3 lbs a week and after 3 months had lost almost 3 stone. Hypnotherapy most definitely changed my ideas about dieting - for the better! "

Losing Weight with - Pure Hypnoanalysis.

I would recommend Pure Hypnoanalysis as a therapy for weight control if you feel that your weight problem has a more emotional root. This is probably the case if you have spent your life losing weight on diets only to regain all that weight and more. This is because the root of your over-eating problem still exists, like something inside you, but outside your control.

Over-eating for you is a symptom of a deep rooted, unresolved emotion. It is this 'bottled up' emotion that is the cause of your problems. During Pure Hypnoanalysis (Analytical Therapy) your sub-conscious is able to release these buried emotions and along with them, the need to create the unwanted symptom of over-eating. This is why Pure Hypnoanalysis is a unique therapy, it resolves the root cause of the symptom, offering you a permanent solution, while other therapies like CBT, Clinical Hypnosis and NLP just treat the symptom temporarily, leaving the problem buried deep in the subconscious, ready to strike again when you finish your conscious dieting.

I am a fully trained member of The IAPH and can offer you a professional, confidential and non-judgmental environment in which to take you through the process of Pure Hypnoanalysis. By working together over a number of sessions you will find yourself at the centre of a truly liberating and life changing experience.

The process of Pure Hypnoanalysis takes approximately 8 (no more than 12) weekly sessions of 50 minutes.

Pure Hypnoanalysis is a highly developed form of hypnoanalysis (sometimes called hypno-analysis or analytical hypnotherapy). Hypnoanalysis, in its various forms, is practised all over the world, though only IAPH Members are trained to practice the amazing 'Pure' version. To understand why Pure Hypnoanalysis is SO effective follow this link and scroll down to the transcript of a lecture given by Rob Kelly FIAPH in Feb 2004.

Comments from a client who consulted with me for help with weight control
"Jane was very friendly, approachable, easy to talk to and professional.
I fond the therapy very relaxing and I didn't even know that I had been hypnotized!!!
I went to see Jane for help with weight loss as I have struggled with dieting for many years and have tried lots of different 'weight loss programmes' and 'slimming clubs' with little success.
Since having seen Jane for only two sessions I have lost one and a half stones in weight which I have done with relative ease.
I would highly recommend Jane to others and would happily approach her again if I felt the need."
