SLIMMER AND HEALTHIER CREATING A SLIM, HEALTHY BODY FOR LIFE

If I knew then what I know now, I wouldn’t have wasted thirty years of my life in a battle with my weight. I was a plump child, a podgy teen and a young woman who was deeply unsatisfied with her body image every day of her life. Born into a family of sporty skinnies, I inherited my paternal grandmother’s genes and body shape. I ate what everyone else ate but was a distinctly different shape. I was always on a diet of some kind, often a rigid starvation diet, from age 13. Every morning I would lie in bed and review what I had eaten yesterday and judge myself based on how “good” I had been. Then I would feel my stomach to see if it was flatter. It wasn’t. A quick hop onto the scales would complete the early morning punishment for that day. I defined myself by what I weighed. Then during my forties, I trained to become a hypnotherapist, a career change that was inspired by a thirst for understanding about human behaviour, thoughts and emotions. Part of that training involved how to help clients lose weight. The program we were taught focused exclusively on habit change. While habit or behaviour change using hypnotherapy is very powerful, I knew there was so much more to it than that. What about all the emotions that were involved? What about healing the causes of why people overeat? What about the deeply-held negative beliefs about self-image and worthiness? What about the challenges, the obstacles, all the things that I knew could derail a weight-loss diet and result in a meltdown with a tub of ice-cream or a packet of cookies? I knew I could do better. I already knew this subject would be my specialism. I set out on a path to find out everything that had ever been written by professional colleagues, scientists, doctors, diet experts … either as academic papers or in mainstream diet books. I also read popular books by well-known hypnotists and listened to many audio tracks of weight-loss hypnosis. It was mildly disappointing to realise I had way more understanding inside me than anything I read or studied during those first months. I knew I’d have to design a totally new treatment process from the beginning. But first I needed some willing subjects to practice on. Thank you to my first ever clients, including my advertising account manager at the local newspaper. She took one look at the typed advert I handed her and promptly made an appoint- ment. From those first client sessions, gathering information, hearing about lifestyles, schedules, challenges, past successes and failures, current weights and target weights, I began to firm up a framework for my treatment program. Then I listened to people telling me their feelings, what they believed about themselves, their fears, their anger, their self-blame and guilt. The more I heard, the more I empathised and the more determined I was to design a program that would resolve all of these concerns, from a basic procedure for reversing the habit of overeating without thinking, to working on traumatic life events from the past and healing deep and toxic feelings of worthlessness. I knew this would be possible because I also had experienced many of these feelings in the past but I no longer felt that way. The process would need to heal, resolve and reverse pretty much everything that life can throw at a person. I understood that unwanted weight can often be a symptom as well as a result. I say “unwanted” because there is an important distinction to be drawn between extra pounds that are a result of simple overindulgence or everyday lifestyle circumstances. That is not what we are talking about here. My clients were people who wanted desperately to lose weight, improve their health and regain their self-esteem but were unable to do so, despite all the effort, money, time and all the different diets they had tried. I also met clients who had a super-efficient metabolism that defied all attempts to lose weight. Using myself as my guinea pig and working full- time with clients, I found my own sense of peace with myself. I lost unwanted weight, easily and gently. My clients changed everything about their relationship with food, they discovered how easy and enjoyable it is to eat less but enjoy it more and how great it is to have iron willpower. I developed an unshakeable belief that hypno- therapy, coupled with newer innovative energy meridian therapies, would combine into a powerful treatment program, one that would ensure success for everyone. Every year of practice brought new cases to understand, refinements to incorporate and new ideas to assimilate. Every client had a unique story to tell that added to my understanding. I published the results of my work and also taught fellow hypnotherapists how to follow my program with their own clients. Over twenty years later, and many, many hundreds of cases later, the opportunity came about to make this method available to anyone who wanted it, backed by powerful Hemi-Sync®  audio technology that ensures the appropriate levels of “trance” or internal focused awareness. By adding in a companion book, anyone who is using the program can gain the positive advan- tages from the “therapy chat” that accompanies one-to-one hypnotherapy sessions. The stories, the explanations, the jokes, the cheer-leading, the gentle kicks-up-the-backside, the sympathy, the Eureka! moments and all the supporting benefits that would naturally come from working in person with a therapist. I knew from clients it takes courage to have one-to-one therapy. Not everyone can afford to do this, even if they can find someone who is a specialist. That is why making this 12 track album is so important. It allows the many to access the support they need at an affordable price. I am now convinced that working quietly and privately in your own home and at your own pace will ensure success and is a great alternative to one-to-one therapy. And no travelling time is involved!

By reading the book you’ll gain valuable insights into how these messages work and how your own mind will accept them.
