Fitness meets Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss!

Losing weight can be hard enough as it is.

Firstly, there’s the food side of the equation to think about, then there’s the exercise and lastly there’s the mental side of things (mindset). It’s no surprise to hear then that the average diet in the UK only lasts 7-10 days!

Here at markefitness, I’ve teamed up with a Student Clinical Hypnotherapist to bring you the very best way to deal with all of the points mentioned above.

We are offering the first 5 people a HUGE discount on our brand new trial of bringing fitness & hypnotherapy together!


What will the course involve?

After the initial contact, you’ll firstly meet with my colleague, Ed Francis, who will decide if he can treat you using hypnotherapy as not everyone can be treated in this way. If it’s a yes, you’ll then have 3 hypnotherapy sessions with Ed over the following 3 weeks. Between each of those sessions you’ll see me, a full time Personal Fitness & Weight Loss Coach. I’ll be taking you through an initial nutrition consultation, a further nutrition follow-up appointment and then 6 (2 per week) 1-1 personal training workouts. But don’t worry, the intensity will be adjusted according to your current fitness level and skill base!
The total duration of the course on offer is 4 weeks.

So as you can see, between my colleague and me we will take you through the mind-set, the eating and the exercise, all of the 3 main elements of successful and long-term weight loss.

Let me explain a little bit about what hypnosis is:

Opinions vary on the exact definition of this natural state of mind. First of all, contrary to what many people believe, hypnosis is not always a trance state or a sleep state even though a person in hypnosis may appear to be sleeping. Hypnosis is really natural state of mind and is an important part of everyday life. Whenever our mind wanders, daydreams or is focused on something, such as reading a book, driving a familiar route, watching a film we are in a state of hypnosis.


If I’m hypnotised do I give up control?

Do we give up control of our mind to someone else when we are reading a book or watching a film? In situations like this you are in a hypnotic trance, although you still have the power to emerge from that state if wished. Whatever or whomever hypnotizes you; you always have the power to resist. When you realize that you are the one in control, when you decide how deeply
into hypnosis you wish to go, then you become aware of what hypnosis is. A hypnotherapist is a guide and helps you on a journey, but the change can only be made by you. Often the realization that you are in control, and that you can make change yourself is very empowering. You’ll find that the more often you going into hypnosis, aware that you doing it, the more you realize how easy it is to let go, secure in the knowledge that you can always stop a session if you feel
uncomfortable. Some hypnotherapists use the knowledge that actually we are always in hypnosis
and will have an open discussion with you, just altering their language patters, using suggestions relating to your goal and the changes you wish to make, without taking you into a ‘trance state’ at all.

How does hypnosis feel?

Hypnosis is a natural state of mind; people are often surprised that they hear every word and could get up and walk out of the room at any moment. Unless you enter a deeper state, you may not seem any different, just very relaxed. It’s similar to drifting off to sleep at night, that stage when you are not quite awake and not quite asleep, you may feel a sense of weightlessness or you
may feel heaviness as all your muscles relax. Everyone experiences it differently, and your therapist will be able to reassure you and help you relax and enjoy the experience.
Most people are surprised at just how relaxing it is.

What will happen in a hypnosis session?

Your hypnotherapist will take detailed history and with some conditions may request permission from you to write to their doctor, to let them know you are having hypnotherapy. They will then discuss you goal and what you would like to see or feel at the end of your sessions. Using a range of different techniques your hypnotherapist will relax you, make you feel comfortable and work with you towards achieving your goal. After a session you may feel uplifted, lighter and very relaxed. Often change is very subtle, as your hypnotherapist will be working with your subconscious mind, and you may just notice a very positive shift in how you are feeling.
