CAN YOU LOSE WEIGHT BY HYPNOSIS?


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.
