The difference between Physicial and Emotional Hunger

Filed under: General Hypnotherapy, Weight Loss — Tags: , , , , , , — Howard the Hypnotherapist @ 12:21 am

Have you ever wondered the difference between the two? If you are looking to lose weight or shed those extra pounds then this will be helpful. if you have constant cravings then this is a must read.

According to US research, there are five main differences between emotional and physical hunger:

1). Emotional hunger is a sudden feeling whereas physical hunger comes on gradually.

2). Physical hunger is felt in the stomach – emotional hunger is felt in the head e.g. a sudden craving for a particular type of food like chocolate or something sweet or sugar dense etc.

3). When you feel desperate to eat a particular type of food, it is an emotional need. If you are really hungry, then you are open to a wider choice of food options.

4). Emotional hunger wants to be satisfied immediately whereas physical hunger can wait.

5). Emotional hunger leaves you feeling guilty – physical hunger leaves you pleasantly full

Does this ring any bells for you?

Hypnotherapy For Easy Weight Loss

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , , , , , , — Howard the Hypnotherapist @ 12:54 am

People often ask me Why is the  Easy Weight Loss System so successful?

The simple answer is because it is completely unique to each individual client.

You know people are different even identical twins have some differences. so if this is the case how can a standard system work on everyone?

We use a fully flexible and unique methodology that combines Hypnotherapy and NLP among a number of other tools to make every session suit the person.

Different people have different weight problems, and equally those weight problems have various causes we treat everyone as an individual.

Some overeat emotionally, some make bad choices as to what to eat, some need to exercise, some picked up bad eating habits from childhood or the diet industry, some have body image problems…

We work with you and your issues.

on the basis you agree with that then let look at some common reasons why we are successful at what we do.

1) We will not try and sell you supplements and diet products.

The diet industry is continually looking to sell you product after product with new improved this and less fat, calories etc. We fundamentally disagree with this principle. Slim people don’t use those products so why should you.

2) We work out the main themes as to why you are overweight.

When you make an appointment we send you a questionnaire that starts to details your relationship with food, and the potential causes of you being over weight.  Over the years we have honed this to be really insightful and accurate. it tells us how you respond to differing situations.

This questionnaire gives us clues as to what we will be dealing with when we meet for the first and probably only time. Yes it’s all done in one session.

3) Is it a Emotional vs physiological eating pattern

Some people have never discovered he subtle difference between an emotional urge or need to eat and a physiological reason.  i have covered this element in more detail elsewhere in this blog, if you need anymore information feel free to contact me.
4) Specific advice based on your questionnaire and our discussion.

We ensure that together you and i come up with the strategies and hypnosis suggestions that are going to work for you. So for instance you have an urge to eat chocolate every evening we deal with that. if you find that you have to eat everything on your plate so that it’s clean then that’s what we deal with. and if you eat because you are bored or unhappy then we deal with that to.

5) we have to challenge our natural instincts

years ago food was scarce and only available in season. our ancestors didn’t know where the next meal was coming from and had to eat everything in  front of them as there was no certainity where or when the next meal would be available.

Today that’s just not the case. as i write this from my office in Central Milton Keynes i have within a 5 minute walk at least 15 food outlets and that’s counting all the vending machines. The supermarkets around me are open 24/7 and we can buy strawberries in January to December.

Today we don’t have to deal with the potential unavailability of food it’s quite the opposite. Lets not even get into the calorie rich foods that get churned out of the international corporations with the fancy packaging etc.

Anyway you get the picture everyone has their own reasons why they are overweight and i believe has to be treated in an individual way, in a nutshell that’s why we are successful at what we do.

Hope that helps answer some of your questions

Let em know if you need more information

Thanks

Just thought i would note just some of the reasons why people fail on diets or weight loss and these are just some of the many ways in which we help people make positive changes using Advanced Hypnotherapy and NLP to lose weight.

EATING QUICKLY
Are you always the first to finish?
Did you taste your meal or did you just shovel it in?
Did you enjoy the flavours, texture and aroma of your meal?
Do you feed rather than eat?

BOREDOM EATING
Do you reach for the biscuit packet when you are bored, lonely, watching TV, without a person in your life, or you have split up for a relationship?
Do you sit on the settee and just pile the food into your mouth while you watch your favourite soap?
Contact our office in Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire to find out how Advanced Hypnotherapy and NLP will enable you to understand your emotions, your reactions to them and allow you to break the link that your unconscious has between emotions and food

REWARD EATING

Had a good day?
Had a bad day?
Do you deserve a treat?

Contact our office in Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire to find out how Advanced Hypnotherapy and NLP will enable you to fully understand why you need to reward yourself and once again break the link that your unconscious has created between reward and food

PLATE CLEARING

Is your partner quite happy with your size maybe thinking a slimmer you could be a temptation to stray?

Weight Loss Hypnotherapy

We use a unique combination of Advanced Hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), other advanced psycological tools  to help you permanently change the relationship you have with food.

This enables you to easily lose weight, stay in control and ultimately, become the size and shape you desire.

And as part of the process, will also help you to feel physically more relaxed, mentally calmer and, so much more confident within yourself. If this all sounds a little too good to be true, why not have a chat with us over the phone and find out a little more? the best way to make a decision is to put yourself in a fully informed position.

Why we are so successful at weight loss hypnotherapy?

Here’s something interesting  to think about.

Ask yourself the following: Why is it that weight is only a problem for two groups on earth: Humans the most intelligent species on the earth (that’s us!) and the animals we domesticate?

Why is it that whilst 40% of UK citizens are now classed as overweight, 99.99% of the other creatures on this planet, providing their food is available, eat as much as they want, whenever they want and are never overweight. Why is it that other creatures on this earth are not prone that never ending cycle of over eating and dieting?

The answer is really very simple.

The reason for this bizarre phenomenon is very simple – other creatures on this earth do not eat emotionally. The reason why so many people in the western world are overweight is because as a species we have learned to use food as a means to change our feelings. Indeed, most of our clients’ weight problems emanate from the fact that they eat when they are bored, lonely, miserable or any number of other emotional scenarios, NONE of which have anything to do with physical hunger.

It a sad fact that as a result of our conditioning from birth, we all have a propensity to bury our feelings in food, but if we eat because of emotional hunger, our bodies will never feel satisfied because no amount of food is going to change the way we feel – indeed ultimately, it will only end up making us feel worse.

We use Advanced Hypnotherapy and NLP  to help change your relationship with food by retraining you and your unconscious mind, that part of the mind that holds all our food related beliefs, associations and habitual patterns of behaviour.

Find out more by simply contacting us and putting yourself in a fully informed position only then can make the right decison for you.

Take care
