Keep Your New Year’s Resolutions With Hypnosis
really losing weight.” Or, “This year I’m quitting smoking for good.” But why should this year be any different? They say the defi nition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting differ- ent results. So, if you truly want to make changes in the New Year, consider hypnosis.

Hypnosis taps into the power of your subconscious to create meaningful and lasting changes in subconscious thinking. When think- ing changes, so do beliefs, fears, desires, habits, and all of those things that create resistance when you attempt to achieve something new.
Hypnosis is not a passive process. You will participate by honest- ly communicating your goals and what has previously held you back from achieving those goals. It’s also important that the goals are truly yours. Hypnosis will not help you lose weight if you’re simply trying to satisfy social pressure. Hypnosis will not help you quit smoking if you’re only doing so because your friends and family are nagging you to. Whatever change you make with hypnosis has to be made with both your cooperation and your consent.
Hypnosis is a very relaxed state of consciousness. This allows new information to easily take root in the subconscious, thereby transforming old beliefs and thought patterns that no longer serve well. Accessing the subconscious through hypnosis allows the hypnotist to communicate your consciously chosen beliefs to the subconscious mind in order to increase success and the ease with which your goal is accomplished.
For example, if you choose to lose weight and your subcon-
scious believes that, “healthy food is boring” and “exercise is draining,” then it will fi nd ways to create those experiences for you. Through hypnosis, these beliefs can be replaced with, “I enjoy eat- ing a variety of nutritious foods” and “moving my body is fun and energizing,” and so these become your new experiences. Weight loss becomes easier, not because fat is magically melting off of your body, but because there is no more subconscious resistance to making the lifestyle changes that are required for weight loss and maintenance.
Likewise, if you choose to quit smoking and your subconscious
believes that, “I’m too stressed to manage my life without cigarettes,” then you will fi nd your smoke-free days limited in number. Hypnosis will help you replace that negative belief with a positive one such as, “I am so much more productive now that I am free from that old habit. I have more energy, more money, and more time to pursue worthy interests.” You then begin fi nding it more desirable to take control over cigarettes than to allow yourself to be controlled by them.
Whether you resolve to lose weight, quit smoking, or achieve some other meaningful goal, if you’re determined to make your New Year’s resolution stick this year, hypnosis may be the best gift you can give yourself!
