Weight
Diets
don’t work. They make you feel deprived. Diets begin
and they end, so they are not a permanent solution to weight
control.
Two
things are important: what you put into your body and how
much fat you burn. Hypnosis can help you gain control by
helping you to desire the foods that are fresh, clean, and
nutritionally valuable. You shift the fatty, sugary foods
to the category of occasional foods, but never deprive yourself.
You
can also address emotional eating and begin to separate
emotional hunger from physical hunger. If you get off track
for a day or so, you can easily get back on track so that
you do not put the weight back on.
For
some of you gaining weight is your goal, and hypnosis can
help you to have more of an appetite and desire the foods
that your body requires to be at your desired weight.
Areas
of weight where hypnosis has proven successful:
General
weight loss is one area that hypnosis is very
successful. You change your eating habits easily and comfortably
so you don’t “feel” like eating the sugary,
fatty foods that have put weight on you. You address emotional
over eating effectively with hypnosis. It can change your
life and your body!
Obesity
(may need doctor referral) is a common problem in our society
now and stems from old family programming around food, years
and years of food commercials, and low self esteem. Hypnosis
sessions support you in taking the weight off permanently
instead of the yoyo experience of most diets.
Gastro
bypass surgery is more popular than ever,
but is not a panacea. There is still hard work to do, habits
to change, and surgery to recover from. Hypnosis makes this
life changing event easier and more tolerable and allows
you to become comfortable with your “new image”.
Special
diets are often necessary for medical reasons.
Hypnosis can strengthen your resolve and will power, and
keep you on track.
Weight
gain is a necessity for some people. A few
sessions of hypnotherapy can increase appetite and make
foods more appealing.

I've struggled to lose weight ever since my doctor told me to drop 20 pounds. I've tried everything including on-line weight programs and nothing has worked. I listened to Laurie Miller's Hypnosis "Release Weight" CD program and I was dumbfounded when I lost my craving for carbohydrates and refined sugar. That's NEVER happened to me in my entire life. The picture she creates with words coupled with the hypnotic suggestions are very powerful and I find them echoing in my mind. I guarantee you won't be able to get the images Laurie describes out of your head either. I lost 5 pounds in a week. I'm truly astounded. -- Judy Westerfield, M.A, MFT, CCH

I love the Garden Healing CD. And, yes, it DOES work! Lunch today was tomatoes, mushrooms, sprouts, cheese, avocado, cantaloupe, watermelon, honeydew melon, strawberries, and grapes. The veggies were all in a sandwich at our favorite restaurant, with the fruits all being in a "side" on the plate. I never would have ordered this before, but when I read it on the menu I suddenly couldn't resist it. -- Lisa L.

Laurie Miller has helped me begin the path of weight loss and sustain that loss over several months for the first time in my life. Listening to her hypnosis CD's and working with her in live sessions has turned my relationship with food and exercise around. I no longer live to eat, I eat to live. -- Bonnie Jo Davis
