Hypnosis is a growing technique, especially
used in France for the management of weight problems. The Does hypnosis really
lose weight? What are his interests? Dr. Dominique using hypnosis with people
wishing to lose weight answers these questions.
First, what is hypnosis?
Dr Dominique: Hypnosis is defined
as a state of consciousness called "modified" which is neither sleep
nor the usual waking state. There is talk of extended wakefulness because
hypnosis is accessed more easily to emotions, unconscious memories. Hypnosis is
actually a mode of communication that somehow reduce the influence of our
scientific brain, logic (our brain "left") in favor of our more
emotional brain, more creative (brain "Right") . It must immediately
to separate hypnosis called Ericsone hypnosis "big show" that can be
seen at fairs or in movies that convey a sense of control of the subject by the
hypnotherapist. This is not the reality of Ericsone hypnosis. Hypnosis is a
completely natural phenomenon, such as the statements of "waking
dreams" when looking at the landscape scroll on a train and our mind
starts to wander. Milton Erikson has developed techniques to amplify this
natural phenomenon and access our unconscious.
Does Hypnosis lose
weight?.
Dr Dominique: Hypnosis in itself
will not magically lose weight. Any weight loss requires reviewing its eating
habits, physical activity, etc. The weight is determined by an interaction
between our environment and our ability to store fat. But the environmental
factor is often underestimated. This is the influence of stress, emotions or
malaise which affects the body and can facilitate decision weight. This is precisely
in this context that hypnosis is of great interest because it will help to
implement the necessary actions (diet, physical activity, etc.) to achieve a
goal. Hypnosis is part of a sustainable management of weight problems, allowing
learning to focus on its body and become attentive to the messages it delivers
us.
What is your hypnosis
interest in weight loss process?
.
Dr Dominique: In my practice, I
use hypnosis with four goals. 1) The discovery of a new mode of operation: the
number of patients present with hyperactivity "reasoning" (a spirit
in permanent boiling) which contributes to a depletion and a "chronic
stress" condition. Working on the comfort and the quiet, hypnosis to
discover new resources by itself such as the ability to create his own
confort.2) Research traumatic or emotional events: hypnosis can explore this
area, that is to say, whether overweight or eating respond to previous
traumatic or emotional events. This is particularly interesting in compulsive
or bulimic tendencies. These intense desires or needs to eat meet unconscious
mechanisms that we can work in hypnosis. 3) Work on the sensation of hunger:
some patients say they always hungry or have always wanted to eat without these
sensations are related to a particular emotional state. Hypnosis allows here to
work on the sensations to create a kind of filter between what we feel and the
action we are going to place.4) Self-esteem and self-confidence: patients have
grown most often have a very negative image of themselves and give the
impression of always turn in a negative sense of failure. Regain
self-confidence is fundamental to maintain motivation and hypnosis can help in
this process. Hypnosis should always be part of a real support. It is important
to know where you are going and have a clear idea of the goal. All this is
based first and foremost on a relationship of trust between doctor or therapist
and patient.
Is there a danger in the use
of hypnosis?
Dr Dominique: Ericsone Hypnosis is
a free hypnosis to allow the patient to find her own resources to get better.
This is a very permissive hypnosis where we do not give orders or authoritarian
suggestions. However, it should be used by health professionals specially
trained in a real objective of management. There is no question of hypnosis at
any cost but simply use this tool to help the person change.
