It's January, which means it's time for resolutions. Losing weight is in the top five with good intentions every year. It is estimated that more than half of the Dutch population is now overweight. More than 10 percent are even obese, seriously overweight. Are you also overweight and have you not yet managed to lose your excess pounds despite previous attempts? Below you can read how you will succeed in losing weight in 2020.
Ingrained eating and exercise habits cause failure to lose weight
Although losing weight is a good resolution that many people have, unfortunately very little comes of it in practice. You start losing weight with a combination of exercising more, and eating less and healthier. Many people follow one diet after another and start exercising (intensively), without long-term success. The problem often lies in fixed eating and exercise habits. As a result, the kilos start to fly for many after weeks or months.
Not paying attention to the mind when dieting or exercising
Hypnosezorg.nl approaches losing weight from a different angle. Although it is of course also about eating healthier and less and exercising more, most diets and sports do not take the human mind into account. And that while the influence of this on our actions is very large. After all, the mind determines what someone considers himself capable of and what someone thinks he can handle.
Lose weight through hypnosis
When people want to lose weight, hypnosis is probably not the first thing they think of. But it can be very effective in people who previously could not maintain long-term weight loss through exercise and a modified diet. Losing weight through hypnosis is an entirely different approach. This takes into account the influence of the subconscious on the actions of a person.
Enter your subconscious
We all like to claim to be in complete control. But did you know that it has been proven that 95 percent of our emotions and behavior are determined by the subconscious? This is often the root cause of obesity. For example, there are many people who eat since childhood to boost themselves. They eat a lot because they are not feeling well. Then they feel guilty, which only makes them eat more. A hypnotherapist can help to penetrate the subconscious mind, recognize and change this fixed thinking pattern. Your subconscious is easier to access during a hypnosis session. It is also more open to change.
