Weight Loss

Our Weight and Our Health

It is well documented that being overweight can lead to heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke breathing problems, diabetes, joint problems, depression and lack of confidence.

Our Relationship with Food

Food is ingrained in our society and as children we were often bribed or treated with food. To celebrate a success in our lives then we may treat ourselves with a meal or a nice cake. When we are feeling down we often eat something to make us feel better.

Kick Yo-Yo Diets into Touch

The simple fact is that diets do not work for the majority of people. A Diet's purpose is often restriction of food. In the short term this may work but then motivation wavers. Studies show that over 90% of weight loss on diets is put back on. These diets are often labelled Yo-Yo diets and can have detrimental psychological affect.

Cormfort Eating

At AKL Hypnotherapy Solutions we are trained to know that there are may be more deep rooted reasons why people are overweight. People can eat to hide real feelings and this is often called ‘Comfort eating’. The AKL team will help clients to focus on every aspect of their life rather than just what they eat.

The AKL Hypnotherapy Way

When dealing with weight loss we believe in a common sense approach. Food should be enjoyed but respected. As a part of therapy the client is encouraged to keep a food diary, which can assist to identify potential problems/trends. Hypnotherapy will motivate clients to increase activity levels and to develop healthy eating habits.

At AKL we use suggestion therapy that incorporates positive mental imagery and visualisation techniques to encourage the sub-conscious mind to motivate the client to become slimmer and more healthier.
