What happens in the Group Hypnosis for Weight Loss Class?

The intention of this class is to jump start your weight loss goals by having you commit to a plan that you create and then "installing" that plan into your subconscious through the use of hypnosis.  We begin the class by having you answer some questions about your weight loss issues, attempts to lose weight, and why you believe you are having trouble losing weight.  We discuss in general some of the groups overall issues and then I have you make a plan of action.  The plan covers what you are going to do for your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual needs in order to accomplish your goal. The plan is important because it reflects what you feel you need in order to succeed in your ability to lose weight and keep it off.  I then take you into the hypnosis portion of the class.

Why use hypnosis to lose weight?  Because sometimes it is your own mind that gets in your way.  If you have difficulty staying with healthy eating or you find yourself indulging in what you know isn't good for you, then you know it's about what you say to yourself more so than what you are doing.  Your mind continues to justify your habits and behaviors in order to allow you to continue not to be the healthy person you know you want to be. This is aside from the other reasons you may not be losing weight, i.e. physical ailments or limitations.  Since I am a mental health therapist, I can only approach your weight loss issues from the mind. I highly suggest that you seek out the proper professionals for issues of a physical or nutritional nature.

What is hypnosis? Hypnosis is simply a state of relaxation with suggestions for change given by me as the facilitator.  You may or may not hear what I say.  You may or may not feel you are hypnotized.  The experience is different for everyone.  What makes my hypnosis process different from anyone else's is that I use my connection to the Universal Council, universal energy, to augment the things that I say to you.  I use your words along with words of encouragement from the Universal Council that are individualized for each participant.  You will probably be able to hear what is being said to each and every individual, but you will realize that it only enhances your own experience. The result is an installation of your plan for change at all levels of your being.

I recommend that participants take at least three classes to continue to reinforce the benefits of hypnosis in their weight loss.  You will most likely see the results after one session.  Then you can determine how much support you need in the future.

This is a quick and easy process.  It is a one hour class with lasting results.  The class is conducted every Friday at noon.  The fee is $45.00 a class or $125.00 for a package of three classes.
