Other reasons people overeat may be because they are bored, lonely, rewarding themselves or protecting themselves.

Many of these reasons can be traced back to an emotional event that happened in an individual’s past and has remained locked in their subconscious mind (even if it’s no longer in their conscious mind).

The need to eat often satisfies our mind rather than the physical need to eat to survive. Changing the role food plays in our lives can be the key to long-term weight loss.

Signs of overeating:

* Eating so fast you do not really taste the flavours in the food or notice your body signalling that it is full

* Always eating everything on your plate even if you are full, so not to waste food

* Eating when you are bored or lonely

* Eating when you are upset or miserable

* Eating to reward yourself

* Eating to protect yourself or to create a barrier

* Comfort eating to fulfil an emotional need

How can hypnotherapy help you become slimmer?

As well as overeating there are various eating habits which may be sabotaging your weight management.

Stress eating, emotional eating, boredom eating, compulsive eating, binge eating... anorexia and bulimia.

Hypnotherapy can help an individual to identify the emotional event(s) that caused their attitude to food to develop. Accessing the subconscious mind can lead to the underlying root cause, and once this has been recognised it can often be dealt with.

Hypnotherapy can help to create different attitudes towards food and allow new eating habits to be developed. Individuals can gain back control of how much they eat and only eat until their body signals that they are full.

Hypnotherapy can help an individual to:

* Learn to be more relaxed about how to manage their weight

* Develop a new self image

* Begin to think positively about weight and diets

Analytical hypnotherapy is often more effective than direct suggestion hypnotherapy for weight loss as it seeks to find the root cause.
