Affirmation for Reducing Stress and Losing Weight

December 29, 2012 by Willow Leave a Comment

I am melting the extra pounds of negative stress away by balancing my intake of duties, expectations, and pressures.

My life is in balance. By prioritizing, I create my own pyramid of responsibilities. My priorities are my guidelines for how I spend my time, energy and money.

In order to stay balanced, I do not over indulge in any one area.I set limits for myself so that I can stay healthy. Balancing my responsibilities is my exercise. When I stay the course, I burn off the excess weight of busywork or distractions. My life feels more fulfilling when I replace busywork with meaningful tasks.

I remove anxiety from my diet and replace it with careful planning. I balance my duties by filling out my planner. If I see that I have too many tasks on one day, I stop adding responsibilities for that date.

Sometimes I have to say “no” to some things. Other times I simply have to say “not now.” If I tried to do it all and neglected to limit my activities, I would burn myself out and experience negative stress.

My expectations are fair. If others place unrealistic expectations on me, I work hard, but I replace them with realistic ones. I take on reasonable challenges. I am encouraged when I exceed my expectations. If I set my expectations too high and then I miss, I would be stressed and discouraged.

A moderate amount of stress is good for me, but when I feel myself getting buried under pressure, I know it’s time to re-evaluate my diet. I am careful not to crush myself under pressure in the name of challenging myself. There is a difference between taking on a challenge and simply taking on too much.

When I melt away negative stress I fit into my clothes of cheerfulness and peace of mind.

Self-Reflection Questions:

How can I balance my schedule?
What busywork can I eliminate from my life?
Are my priorities reflected in the way I spend my time, energy and money?

Hypnosis for Weight Loss Success Stories

December 10, 2012 by Willow Leave a Comment

How successful is hypnosis for weight loss? When it comes to weight loss, you may need a little convincing about the power of hypnosis for weight loss – you want to hear about other hypnosis weight loss success stories before you try it yourself. Hypnosis is a well-established way to help you change habits and improve how you go through your daily life, including losing weight.

In fact, many physicians and reputable medical facilities are hiring hypnotherapists for their practices in order to help patients with weight loss issues as well as other health issues such as smoking. Hypnosis has also long helped people with specific phobias, like fear of flying or fear of driving, as well as exam panic and fear of public speaking.

Research has shown that hypnosis for weight loss can give people the extra boost they are looking for. In fact, it has been demonstrated that using hypnosis for weight loss can be more effective than using other diet and exercise programs alone. A recent study showed that patients who practiced hypnosis for 20 weeks lost an average of 20 pounds.

That may not sound like much, but think about it for a moment. If you lost a pound a week for a year, you’d be down 52 pounds. Without the agony of a crash diet from which you most likely would just rebound and put back the weight. Yo-yo dieting is bad for your health and your weight – other research has already shown that.

This weight loss with hypnosis was without any other intervention from diet or exercise or dangerous diet pills. It was simply mind over matter. When you combine weight loss efforts such as a regular exercise program or calorie restriction, your results may be even more dramatic. A combination program, in my experience, really is the best approach to losing weight for keeps.

If you’re looking for something to allow you to lose weight without another program, hypnosis can provide steady weight loss with lasting results. If you want to kickstart your diet and exercise program by adding hypnosis, you’ll see the weight come off fast and you’ll enjoy more lasting weight loss. The success from hypnosis is impressive — and it might be that extra edge that you need to get to your goal weight this time.

It’s easier to lose weight with hypnosis than with any fad program on the market.
