Feeling fat, self hypnosis and hypnotherapy
This blog entry by The Juicy Woman has just caught my eye:
‘I woke up feeling fat today. It’s been a while since I’ve felt like that but my body tells me that something is wrong. In the past, I used to think that my fat days were the result of overeating or eating foods that tend to bloat my body. Now I think of those days as a barometer indicating where my feelings are and what the focus of my thoughts is at any given time.’
What a refreshing attitude to understanding one’s feelings about weight, body-image and self-esteem!
She goes on to attribute her 'fat' feelings to a difficult conversation she had with her father… and what she didn't say to him but now wishes that she had.
Hanging on to painful feelings and memories can be the source of so many of the negative thoughts and emotions that we experience about our bodies. This is where learning some fun and effective self-hypnosis techniques that you can use regularly, taking some time each day to write or journal about your self and your feelings, or coming to York for some empowering and fabulously renergising hypnotherapy sessions are all such effective ways of feeling better and better about yourself.
I love working with people to help them to feel fabulous in thier bodies. And when you already feel fabulous from deep down inside, you don't need to diet. You're free to enjoy your food, nourish you body and get on with your life.
