I am desperate to lose weight and to quit smoking, hate both of the habits, but short of using a “system” like Jenny Craig or Nutrisystems, or having surgery (can’t afford either option), I don’t know what to do. I have no will power, no matter how much I truly want to lose weight and quit smoking. So somebody please, tell me that it has worked for you and how you went about finding an hypnotherapist.

Did it work for you…My doctor has tried to get me to take pills to quit but I dont like most of the side effects I read about.

Has anyone used hypnosis to help with anxiety or with a social phobia?

If so does he have a book and Do you know any other hypnotherapists that are good for Nlp and covert hypnosis. Thanks
I am not asking for your opinions but an answer for the question. It’s how yahoo questions work. It not a religious organisation.

Experts on the subject believe he is.

did it work?

The state of hypnosis is usually defined as a simultaneous state of relaxation and concentration. Drawing from this definition, one can infer that hypnosis can be a tool for achieving relaxation. With the mind in a relaxed, and attentive state, it becomes open to suggestion. This state of mind can be achieved either with the help of a professional hypnotist, or with a little bit of practice, by one’s own efforts. The latter is termed as self hypnosis.

Hypnosis, unfortunately, has a lot of bad press going for it, primarily because of the misconceptions surrounding it. So what are these misgivings that make people reluctant to give these techniques a try? Many people believe that they lose their control when under hypnosis. That statement is a tricky one. While hypnosis is about what may seem like surrendering your control to the hypnotist, it is only possible if you choose to do it. In other words, the choice is with us, the control is with us. We can choose to “give” the control to the hypnotist; and we can snap out of hypnosis anytime, by choosing to “take” that control back, when we want to. And in case of self hypnosis, the question of giving up control to “someone else” doesn’t even arise.
