Jump Start New Year’s Resolutions With Hypnosis
This year I’m definitely going to lose that 20 pounds and I’m going to clean out the garage and stop smoking and … Have you ever made a number of New Year’s resolutions and then found yourself failing before you even started or within a few days of a weight reduction plan or an exercise regimen? Some people even refuse to make resolutions or to set goals for the New Year because they think it’s a useless exercise at best. As a Hypnotherapist, I believe you can set goals or resolutions and reach them with the help of Hypnosis and the power of your subconscious mind. With the first ever World Hypnosis Day on January 4, 2005, hypnotherapists around the world have been asked to provide the public with information about hypnosis and its benefits. First of all, hypnosis is a natural, focused state of mind in which you bypass the conscious mind to directly access the subconscious. While you are in hypnosis, your subconscious can accept positive suggestions, images and feelings that help you to reach your goals and eliminate negative habits or patterns. One of the chief benefits of hypnosis is relaxation or the reduction of stress of the body and mind. As well, while in trance, you focus and imagine achieving your desired goal whether that is to reach your ideal weight, stop smoking, exercise or become a better, more confident speaker. When you visit a hypnotherapist, you will clarify your goals and make them realistic and measurable. You also learn self-hypnosis so that you can practice it at home as you reinforce the sessions with the hypnotist. Hypnosis has been recognized since 1958 as a valuable therapeutic tool for people who wish to make positive changes in their health and in their lives. So this New Year’s when you make your resolutions to be fit and healthy or to feel less stressed and more peaceful, consider giving them a jump start with hypnosis.
