Weight Loss: Recent Episodes
Laura McDonald - Eden Wellness
So you want to lose weight - you know that much. But how? Why? When? What do you need to focus on in order to make it a success? As a practicing clinical hypnotherapist with almost 18 years experience, I have a few suggestions...!
When you think about yourself, what do you see in your mind's eye? Is it flattering and complimentary? It is so important to create a positive self image in your mind. When you do this, your thoughts become kinder and more encouraging, and you gradually move closer and closer to how you want to be, feel, live and behave. Thoughts create our reality - this is so powerful - use it to your advantage. Train your mind work FOR you and not AGAINST you.
This is the last part of my mini weight loss series. For free audios to help you along your journey, you can send me a message on the website and I'll send you the links.
Now you're in the right space to be creating a realistic and doable plan. Don't jump in all at once - start slowly and alter your plan as the weeks go by! Once you see small changes starting to occur, your motivation will kick in and you'll be in flow and enthusiastic to keep going.

What would your future you say about the choices you're making today? Will they be happy or disappointed? Think of a time when you ate something and immediately regretted it after. Think about a time when you resisted. Which felt better? What can you do now to make your future self happy?

You wouldn't speak unkindly to someone else. You certainly wouldn't to a small child. It doesn't matter what a child does - we say 'wow! Well done! That's fantastic!' - and this is part of where their confidence comes from. They are curious to try new things without fear of humiliation or criticism. Imagine what you could do if you lived in this way too? Be your own biggest fan and watch how much easier it is to stick to your weight loss goals (or any others!).
