One bite of chocolate cake, please?

Have you ever asked yourself, “Why am I so consumed with the thoughts of food?”
When you go on a diet, do you realize that the biggest difference isn’t what you are eating…but what you are thinking? It is as if the word ‘diet’ is the key word that triggers your mind to think of food 5 times more than you normally would; and your normal amount of thinking about food was already on overload.

You go on a diet and you tell yourself, “that chocolate cake is bad for me”, “I want to lose weight so I need to avoid that cake”, etc. Your unconscious mind is saying, “What is the harm? Define bad? It hasn’t hurt me before…and one bite isn’t what is making me overweight. I can have just one bite!”
Here is a good rule of thumb in psychology; “ANYTHING that is reinforced is likely to occur again.” This little rule, although very powerful and can be a great thing for changing behavior…it also works against us and we have to be diligent to notice when those times are.
Let us think about this. If every time we have taken a bite of chocolate cake, it gives us pleasure, isn’t that a reinforcement? YES. What is the rule for reinforcements? ANYTHING that is reinforced is likely to occur again.
You have had a lifetime of reinforcing bad eating habits.
Fortunately, we can change those eating patterns; replace them with healthy ones by accessing the area of mind where these habits have been stored. Hypnosis is a powerful tool for change. By using hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming – self-sabotage and bad eating habits can start being replaced with a healthy outlook on life, an increased desire for exercise and a boost in self-esteem and confidence. While in hypnosis you can reinforce healthy life choices and what is the rule? Anything that is reinforced is likely to occur again.
With your determination and commitment, hypnosis makes it easier to reach your goals.
