See our full program below:
Month 1 : Fitness, Health & Vitality
Focus Elements of the Month: Health, Absorbing Nutrients, Digestive Flow, Live Body, Live Food, Sending Love, Healing Energy and Ideal Body.
Section 1 – Self-Acceptance & Self-Compassion
A high proportion of people with weight control issues also have self-esteem problems. Yet even if you feel that you don’t have low self-esteem you will almost certainly find that Section 1 hypnotherapy session is very helpful.
This is because we can all benefit from higher self-esteem – provided it is of a healthy type. Yet this session does not focus on boosting self-esteem directly, rather, it aims to help you to develop greater self-acceptance and self-compassion. These, once you have worked on them and put them into practice, will not only help your self-esteem, they will also help you in other positive ways. In fact, if you work on these and develop them strongly they can transform your life.
Section 2 – Reflection
Section 2 hypnosis session is about a key process in success: Reflection. This is where we consciously look back on what we’ve done with the intention of learning from it. People with weight control issues very often struggle without considering why they are struggling and then using that knowledge to make it easier. Successes and failures allow us to develop and grow – providing we reflect on them in the right way. This hypnotherapy session will also help you overcome barriers to weight loss. It does this by increasing your confidence in your ability to deal with whatever comes along, and helps you “reframe” these challenges so that you can see them in a different, more positive way.
Month 2 : Safety & Weight Loss
Focus Elements of the Month: I Am Safe, Feeling Protected, Strong, Secure, Power, Releasing Fear, Forgiveness and Feeling Free.
Section 3 – Food and Eating
The hypnosis session for Section 3 addresses the weight issue directly. So while addressing emotional and thought issues is an essential part of achieving weight control, here we use advanced hypnotherapy techniques to deal with the practical problems that also play a vital part in your losing weight. Thus Section 3 hypnosis session focuses on the practical matters of buying food, dealing with portion size, telling your body that it has had a sufficient amount, etc. In addition, the hypnotherapy within this session also helps increase your motivation.
Rather than our encouraging you merely to concentrate on the benefits of weight control – something you are probably already quite aware of – we help you so that each step of the way feels more rewarding. This approach is well-supported by research, which shows that for you to maintain motivation, you need to find rewards as you go along, rather than chasing after rewards that will come mainly when you’ve reached your target weight. In other words, the session focuses on enjoying the journey, rather than enduring the journey in order to get to a particular destination.
Section 4 – Exercise
Section 4 hypnosis session is about exercise motivation. Exercise is something you might not like at the moment or perhaps you feel uncomfortable with because of your weight. This session, therefore, is designed to address these issues and make exercise much more appealing, at a subconscious level. It may surprise you how little you need to do in order to help yourself. It may also surprise you that, once you have overcome that natural resistance, how much you want to exercise.
Section 5 – Maintaining Your Weight Loss
Section 5 hypnosis session helps you maintain your weight loss. This is about adjusting to a new way of eating, a new way of thinking, a new way of living. Many people who lose weight find that they slip back easily simply because they didn’t maintain the changes that they’d made. This session uses hypnotherapy to help you adapt, so that the changes you make become the norm! With this section we will be making changes on a permanent basis of your way of thinking and your way of being.
Month 3 : Stress Reduction For Weight Loss
Focus Elements of the Month: Peace, Calm Light, Inner Wisdom, Success, Worthy, Trust and Abundance.
Section 6 – Mindfulness & Acem
Section 6 is all about relaxation. It has two main focus points – one that teaches you something called Mindfulness, and the other uses a less well-known approach called Acem. Both of these, in different ways, will help you reduce stress but they can also help weaken the thoughts that are obstacles to your successfully controlling your weight. If you learn the two techniques so that you can use them at will, then this will help you make good progress on the course.
Section 7 – Removing Barriers
Not all eating is emotional, of course. Even when it is there may need to be a more direct approach than the Section 7 offer. The hypnosis session for Section 7, therefore, helps you in a more direct way with any remaining obstacles or barriers to your losing weight. Whether these are past events, or the sort of day-to-day issues that can be a challenge to successful weight loss, these can be uncovered and resolved by this powerful hypnotherapy session.

Holistic weight-loss strategies
Weight loss isn’t about strict dieting. Instead, they favor a holistic approach that addresses both body and mind.
The weight-loss strategies we recommend include:
Self-monitoring. One of the most effective tactics for reducing or managing weight is self-monitoring. That means systematically observing and recording what you eat or how much you exercise. You might use a journal to record everything you eat, for example. Or use a pedometer to make sure you take 10,000 steps a day. This approach works. In fact, several studies have found that consistent self-monitoring contributes to about a quarter of weight-control success. We encourage Self-monitoring and reporting your progress to the group.
Accentuated cognitive-behavioral therapy. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is an approach that focuses on changing unhealthy patterns of thinking and behaving. Sometimes that’s not enough. We focus in our program on CBT and Hypnotherapy.
Meditation. Meditation is more than just a stress-reliever. It may also help you lose weight, especially if you tend to binge. Meditation can help you become aware of how you use food to take care of emotional needs, say psychologists. More importantly, meditation can help make you a more mindful eater. Research has shown that individuals with eating problems generally aren’t paying attention to whether they’re actually hungry or full. “Mindfulness” exercises can help heighten your awareness of such cues and keep your mind focused on the experience of eating. We encourage daily Meditation.
Positive messages about eating. When it comes to children, psychologists focus on preventing weight gain. Encouraging positive attitudes about eating is one key strategy they recommend to parents. Studies have shown that making children diet or restricting their intake can lead to unhealthy eating behavior and even weight gain later on. In one study, for example, researchers examined adults whose parents had used food to control their behavior when they were children. They were more likely than others to have struggles with binge eating and weight cycling as adults. We only focus in our program on Positive and uplifting messages.
You already know that losing weight can be achieved with a healthy eating habit, however you may have already programmed your mind not to enjoy healthy food.
This is key: you have programmed your mind not to enjoy healthy food.
The great news is that you can re*program your mind to enjoy healthy food again. This program will take you through a scene in your mind in which your brain begins to associate healthy food with having energy, and feeling good about yourself.
With this guided program you will:
- Choose to eat healthier and make healthy food choices naturally. When you change your beliefs about healthy food you will find that you no longer think about junk food, you’ll just choose healthier foods in a natural way.
- Start losing weight within a few weeks. After a few weeks you will start to see the results of eating healthy foods and notice your energy levels are higher and that you start to lose weight..
- Gain confidence in yourself again. You will see a huge change in your confidence levels. You may have been stuck at being a certain weight for a while now, which may have knocked your confidence. Eating healthy foods will give you a power within yourself, which will give you a boost in confidence.
- Start to look at unhealthy food in a negative way. When you have reprogrammed your mind you will start to see unhealthy food in a negative way and not crave it any more.
Our mind is like a movie projector, and we see movies in our minds all the time about different scenarios which reinforce your beliefs about yourself and the world around us. This program will help you to imagine positive movies that will change your beliefs about healthy eating.
