hypnotherapy

[littlejan]

I want to lose weight and then give up smoking. A tall order. So does hypnotherapy work?  Any one got first hand experience?  Its expensive, so I don't want to waste my hard earned cash.

not really. eat less and dont smoke. why would you need extra motivation to stop killing yourself and looking fat? madness

Gosh. Thanks, El D. Really helpful.

HI - sorry for the late answer...

 

Firstly, read this:

http://www.hypnosisgroup.com/hypnosis/index.html

This should answer some of your queries..... As for personal experience... I have done a little hypnotherapy and it does work. The trick is to MAINTAIN it, so you need to do your hypnosis on a daily basis,  it only takes about half an hour tops. Try reading a little more about it before commiting though because it's not for everyone....

BTW - I use it for Pain management, and yes mostly it works.....

Hi Littlejan

I had hypnotherapy in March to stop smoking, haven';t had a ciggie since, best thing i've ever done. I smoked 20 a day for 15 years!!!!!

I would recommend trying Paul McKenna cds, I have tried two of his, Quit smoking and Sleep like a log. they cost about �20 each and you order them from his web site.  I find them very effective and as they are not too expensive you may find them worth a try.  Good luck !!

Thanks to all who replied with genuinely helpful stuff.  Its not going to be easy, but I really do want to do this, so am very grateful.
