LOSE WEIGHT WITH YOUR MIND POWER !

     Wanna lose weight? But can't stop eating junk food? Is 'exercise' boring? No worries, you can use your mind power to lose weight!

     Your subconscious mind has the power to reduce your weight, it has the power to tone up your body! 

     Ask yourself whether you really want to reduce your weight, or you are not much concerned about it. Keep your motivation high.
Read my previous post about Self Hypnosis, so that I can skip the 'Preparation' and 'the technique' part.

    After visualizing few things, take a deep breath and relax! Now start thinking  about your body and talk to yourself..
I know that I love my body, I want to give my body the best food which it requires, I want to keep my body healthy and intact. I will have to have only healthy and nutritious food, I know that junk food does not serve any purpose, other than pumping fat into my body. Now I have also realized that I want to keep the junk food away from me...!!

      Now take a deep breath again and relax. Start visualizing.
Visualize early morning yourself in a park taking a brisk walk. Look at the lush green garden around you while you walk, feel the fresh air, look at the different flowers that have blossomed ! 

      You are sweating, relax for a while sitting on a bench with closed eyes.

     Instead of park you can also visualize a gymnasium where you do different exercises. Try to visualize in detail.. you may be on a treadmill or may be doing aerobics. Try to visualize in detail  different places of the gym listening to a rhythmic music.

     Now you are sweating. Relax for a while.

     Stand in front of a mirror and look at your dream body. Visualize a slim and trim body in detail even though you know that right now it is fictitious. But it is going to happen shortly !! Look at yourself at least for five minutes enjoying your slim body.

     Do this exercise for about twenty to thirty minutes, don't expect instant results but you will be happy to see whatever you have visualized is happening gradually!! 


     Once  you finish the exercise, count back from ten to one. Instruct your mind to wake up slowly as you count back.


         You can see the results in less than one month. It is amazing but true !

Self Hypnosis.

     What is Hypnosis? It is a 'trance state' where you directly deal with the subconscious mind. Hypnotism focuses and enhances your mind power. Hypnotist hypnotizes a person to get him into a trance. 

     During my practice, I hypnotized many people and used to give them post-hypnotic suggestions to solve their problems. Few of them wanted to have a post-hypnotic suggestion by which they can hypnotize themselves. i.e to get into the trance kind of state  through Self-hypnosis.

     Self hypnosis in simple words is hypnotizing yourself to change you, the way you want to be. You can change your thinking for your betterment, you can change your life style, you can get rid of mental and also physical disorders.It is an answer to anxiety, stress, depression and lot other problems related to mind. It can reduce your weight without any workouts ! 
Most important thing is that it relaxes you.

     There are few things you have to remember and do which helps you to step into the self hypnosis state. 

Preparation

     First explain to yourself what is the thing that you want to achieve through self hypnosis. It may be to get rid of a headache or may be to improve your memory or anything for that matter. Let the reason be clear.
 
      Wear comfortable clothes. Select a suitable place where you won`t be disturbed. Select a comfortable  chair to sit or may be a bed to lie down. But sitting is preferred as you may get into sleep when you lie down.

     Write a small black dot on the wall which shall be visible to you from your sitting position and should be at least four to five feet  above your eye level.   

     Beginners may have to dedicate at least twenty to thirty minutes to do this exercise.  

The technique 


     If you know about Yoga and meditation techniques it will be easier for you to get self hypnotized. 

     Relax your body, close your eyes...observe your body from inside.Focus your attention on your toes, gradually shift the focus from toes towards head imagining as if a light or energy is passing through the whole body. Let the travel inside be in detail and slow.

     Now open your eyes.. look at the black dot drawn an the wall without blinking your eyes. As you look at the dot, count back from hundred to one. Breath in and breath out slowly. While focusing on the dot you feel that your eyelids are becoming heavier and heavier. At one stage your eye lids closes automatically.

     Now feel the world inside.Try to visualize the things you like. Try to include your sense organs, for example if you are visualizing sun set at a beach, try to visualize that in detail..feel the cool breeze..listen to the sounds of the waves..look at the vibrant colors on the sky. Yes !!  you are in the beach !

     You can try one more experiment. Imagine that your body is becoming lighter and lighter.. so light.. it becomes as light as a feather..feel that it is moving slowly upwards... you can see the world from above..watch it as if you are watching it from an Aeroplane... Yes !! you are flying.

     Once  you finish the exercise, count back from ten to one. Instruct your mind to wake up slowly as you count back.

     Once you master the visualization techniques, you can suggest your mind whatever you want to achieve.

     I shall explain you how Self hypnosis can help to solve other problems in my future posts.
