Hypnotherapy for Weight Management

We all know that diet and exercise are key to losing and managing our weight. What is not always recognised is the impact that stress has on our ability to do that.

Stress and anxiety change the way we respond mentally and physically by changing our body chemistry in such a way that our bodies are encouraged to store fat reserves rather than release energy. Sustained levels of stress hormones (Cortisol) contribute to the build up of fat which releases an overload of other hormones that suppresses our ability to feel full and can lead to over-eating or comfort eating. We also get less pleasure out of the food we do eat, again encouraging us to eat more when we don't need to.

The negative spiral for stress and weight gain. Increased stress leads to increased cortisol and adipose tissue, changing hormone levels and causing us to eat more and gain weight.

Stress is also a key factor in poor sleep and studies have shown that those who sleep less than 6 hours a night instead of 8 experience an increased level of hunger and desire for a higher calorie intake, therefore also contributing to weight gain.

Breaking the stress cycle is important to losing or managing your weight, especially if diet and exercise alone aren't yielding the desired results.

Hypnotherapy can help you to reduce stress and anxiety levels, sleep better, build confidence and self-esteem by giving you the tools to relax and normalise your body's chemistry, paving the way to weight loss.

Hypnotherapy to lose weight is not a quick fix. I don't offer aversion therapy or gastric band therapy. Instead, I offer clients intent on sustainable and long-term weight management the tools to support them in their goals.

If you're serious in your intent to stop stress weighing you down, then why not find your solution with Elaine Neale at Happy Hypnotherapy and book an initial consultation.

"I had hypnotherapy to deal with severe IBS symptoms & had several online sessions. I felt reassured by Elaine's friendly but professional attitude & found that the emphasis on positivity really worked well . In around two months my IBS symptoms improved & I felt able to take control of other things too, with Elaine’s support. I strongly recommend Happy Hypnotherapy to anyone dealing with tension-related issues."

"Worked with Elaine for 6 months and it was a fantastic experience. She was helpful, understanding and extremely supportive. Spent the first 3-4 months listening to her audio script every night and then gradually transitioned to no longer requiring it to manage with stress and anxiety. Would highly recommend to those who have never done hypnotherapy before and are open minded enough to try it."
