Intellectual Hyponsis For Weight Loss

Weight loss and obesity are spreading like an epidemic across the world. People are struggling with their health and lifestyles which have all just shook the pyramid of human well being. From being the species that tamed all other species, a majority of us has become a monument to physical weakness. As the silver lining of this dark cloud has now begun to show, and more and more people are acknowledging that they have health issue stemming from being over weight or obese, solutions to the problem are being presented and tested. Some weight loss methods are archaic in their technique but highly effective, for example exercise daily. Others are rather new, like weight loss pills, diet patches, appetite suppressants, hypnosis, etc. There's nothing wrong with new ways to achieve the old results, or even better results, but a problem does emerge when unrealistic claims are attached to such new methods and a general unawareness among the masses is capitalized upon. Let's have a look at what Hypnosis can and can't do for weight loss.

Hypnosis, by definition, is a relaxed, focused state of concentration. Weight loss by hypnosis is a method which aids weight loss by giving the mind suggests in its relaxed state, suggests which the mind becomes very responsive to and acts upon.

The Reality Behind Hypnosis for Weight Loss:

Hypnosis is a way to help the weight loss process. Any expert and qualified hypnotist will tell you that a hypnotherapy may well help you in your weight loss program. But that's the point; you have to be on a weight loss program first. Researchers on the effect of hypnosis on weight loss have said that the hypnotic state is characterized by heightened concentration, suggestibility, and relaxation. In this state it can be suggested to the subject to make different choices. This state is different for different people and may or may not require an 慽nduction' to the hypnotic state. The bottom line remains that sheer hypnosis alone will not help you loose weight. You may think of hypnosis as gentle push in the right direction. This being said, if you have uncontrollable eating cravings and are having difficulty sticking to your diet plan, hypnotherapy by a well reputed hypnosis, preferably one recommended by your physician, may help you.

The Over-exaggerated Version of Hypnosis and Weight Loss:

The commonly propagated advertisements about hypnosis that it can cause weight loss immediately even after a single session. Claims like you'll loose 120 pounds just after one session of hypnosis are cheap rip offs and only good for stealing your money. The people, so-called doctors, have no credentials to give weight to their arguments, and you really can't expect to be able to verify they have the work experience they claim. The testimonials written on these sites are nothing to go by on either. The fact of the matter is, you can't loose weight by hypnosis alone and certainly not with only one session.

Also bear in mind that hypnosis can be dangerous if it is administered by someone not properly trained or qualified. Dr. David Spiegel expressed concern on a recent episode of Dateline NBC that a fraudulent hypnotist was supposedly hypnotizing large groups of people without asking them how they felt after bringing them out of the hypnotic state. When you think about hypnosis for weight loss and search for answers on line or around be, be very skeptical and try to find out the surest, most legal and best qualified sources. Otherwise you're better off dieting and exercising the fat away.
