A FEW SIMPLE TIPS FOR STARTING WEIGHT LOSS

Get your mind ready. Think of the many reasons why you want to lose weight and get in better shape.

Take small steps. When one decides to make major changes this can cause the mind to stress and go into the Fight or Flight mode, which could lead to one not continuing. If you instead ask yourself what are some of the smallest changes you can make your mind will be at rest and you are more likely to do it. Perhaps reducing the size of one small snack or jogging in place during commercials only while watching TV, or parking a few spaces further from the door.

Visualize the way you want to look. Holding the image in your mind of the way you want to look will help the mind believe it and achieve it.

Many times when someone uses hypnosis for weight loss they end up making small changes as mentioned here over a period of time after the session. Sometimes people don’t realize that the changes they made over the course of the next few months after a session are the result of the session.
Best wishes to all and may we all stay and get in better shape.

Are your peers benefiting from Hypnosis?

With the help of hypnosis this is turning out to be a great new year. As many of you know who have made an appointment to come in and see me many people are getting great results. Stop smoking seems to be on the rise again, many people have quit the smoking habit in one hypnosis session. Second to smoking cessation is weight loss, many people with one session have made the changes to healthier eating and a healthier life style.

Let’s remember the people who have made other positive changes like improving their public speaking abilities. Hypnosis can help you speak in public situations like a pro, yes, it can. This is something anyone could do, they just need some changes made in the subconscious and that can happen when a hypnotist guides you into the trance state and provides the suggestions needed along with some good visualization.

Hypnosis for business success. This is an area where I would like to see more people come in to see me for. It has been an interesting few years and hypnosis can help one stick to good business habits, maintain the confidence to succeed as well as open up the creative juices for some new ideas.

Many people are going back to school and could greatly benefit from a hypnosis session.

Okay folks, that is all for now. It is been a while since I posted and I wanted you all to realize that many people have been taking advantage of the benefits of hypnosis in this new year. Join them, give me a call, let’s talk.

Lap Band Hypnosis, the newest buzz?

Steve — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 14:16:44 +0000

Hello everybody, over the last few months I have had several people ask me about Lap Band Hypnosis for losing weight. In the last week or two I was called about receiving some training on doing Lap Band Hypnosis.
My first thoughts are this, I have many many clients that receive excellent results losing weight with my hypnosis sessions. We as hypnotist could come up with many different little scenarios, or little imaginary things to aide someone in eating less. To be honest with you I don’t really see what all the hype is about other than it is a clever way to help people lose weight naturally instead of a risky medical procedure, but hypnosis already does that.
Also we have seen over the years changes in the way things are done and many of these changes stem from our belief in the power of the mind and images in the mind. Years ago for the stop smoking cigarette sessions hypnotist use to show the clients slides of damaged lungs, but most if not all of us no longer do this because we believe those images could cause negative benefits for the clients, especially if they return to smoking. I am not keen on the Lap Band Hypnosis, I wonder what negatives could come from someone thinking their stomach is only so big now, or that it is getting smaller, or that some artificial object now resides in their body.
I am not a fan of Lap Band Hypnosis to lose weight because too many of my clients get results with the positive suggestions that they will eat better, live healthier, etc, that the added negatives that could come from the lap band are not worth it.
I think the Lap Band Hypnosis if more of a clever marketing thing than anything else….Sorry, just my initial thoughts. I reserve the right to change my mind as I learn more.
Cheers for now.

2012 the year of great improvement

Steve — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 13:57:57 +0000

The New Year 2012 promises to be as good as or better than last year. As 2011 came to a close I saw more people than previous years gaining a little freedom back in their life. Many people quit smoking or started to get in better shape or lose weight during the holiday season.
The New Year is also a great time to consider life time goals, dreams and ambitions as well as business and career goals. Hypnosis may be the very thing to help you get the desire and vision deep in the sub-conscious which can then lead to you doing those things necessary to achieve. Hypnosis maybe the best way for your New Year Resolutions to stick.
Come join the many people who have saw positive changes at the new location where I see clients.
So take the time to think about what you might want to improve or achieve in the new year and then use hypnosis to help you.

Amazed at what hypnosis can do

Steve — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 17:23:32 +0000

After many years of helping people make positive changes in their life with hypnosis, I still am amazed at times when I hear some of the testimonials.
Over the last few years I haven’t asked for written testimonials, but I would like to share some from time to time.
There was a business man that told me that three weeks after the one session he had with me to stop smoking he was in Las Vegas sitting at a table with others in his industry. There were drinks and many packs of cigarettes at the table. He said he felt at peace and relaxed. Wow, instead of being tempted, or wrestling with it, he felt calm and relaxed.
I think that is a powerful testimony to how easy and natural it can be to take control of your being and habits with hypnosis to quit smoking.

Steve — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 16:08:54 +0000

Losing weight by hypnosis has benefited many people. It is a natural easy way. If a person is able to eat better foods and foods higher in nutrients, and they only eat when necessary and stop when full, coupled with an increase in activity they are sure to get in better shape. Over the years I have seen many people turn their situation around by Lose Weight Hypnosis.
By getting the right suggestion deep in the subconscious it can become easy and natural. Hypnosis has been noted as being the single best aid to weight loss.
During this holiday season wouldn’t it be nice to actually lose weight and be more in control of your habits? Wouldn’t it be nice if it just happened with little or no thought on your part?

Definition: Trance

Steve — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 21:28:53 +0000

Trance, what is commonly used to describe the state one enters via Hypnosis.
Trance definition, relating to making positive changes can be described this way.
A half-conscious state characterized by an absence of response to external stimuli, a day daydreaming state. A state when your outward awareness is reduced. In this state one is more suggestible.

Definition: Hypnosis

Steve — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 21:27:27 +0000

If you search the Internet for definitions of Hypnosis you will come across quite a few variations, and in some cases they might seem to contradict each other.
For the purpose of aiding positive changes in people I will stick to relevant ones.
Hypnosis is the by-passing of the critical thinking of the conscious mind.
All hypnosis is self hypnosis and a hypnotist or CD’s, etc just guides a person into the trance state.
Hypnosis is a simple trance state that many people go into sometimes several times a day.
Hypnosis can be called the “day dreaming” state.
When in this trance state people are more open to suggestion. Humans are highly suggestible, most of what we think and feel, or how we act is due to us being influenced from birth till now.
When a person wants a positive change and they allow themselves to be guided into the trance state and are then given positive suggestions to achieve this, the suggestions tend to go deeper into the sub conscious and by-pass the critical thinking of the conscious mind.

Great happenings, great place

Steve — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 13:58:08 +0000

It has been almost a year since I moved from my residence in Seffner where I had my office to see hypnosis clients. Since that time I have been seeing clients at Mystikal Scents. It is a very nice place with many wonderful people working there and stopping in and visiting. At the old location many people enjoyed their visit and had great success, but now people seem to enjoy it even more and the success rate is even better.
The number of clients that came to see me and the success they enjoyed was good, but it seems to be even better now.
Please, stop by and pay them a visit.

Inner peace and world peace

Steve — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 19:21:03 +0000

Inner peace and world peace could be achieved with the help of hypnosis or meditation. When someone enters the trance state, whether with the help of a hypnotist or by self hypnosis, they reach a relaxed tranquil place that could help them achieve the inner peace, but also if they spend time with the intention of becoming more peaceful and they visualize and see the world around them becoming more peaceful, this could actually be useful in bringing about world peace. Be a part of great things, be a part of “Tampa Hypnosis”, Steve’s Hypnosis can help.
