Many people report having success with hypnosis, and others say it didn’t work.
I'm sure the mixed results have to do with the practitioner and/or the subject.
I personally know someone who was heavy smoker, saw a hypnotist, and quit smoking. For good. No relapses.
But can hypnosis help you lose weight??
Well, if a hypnotist can help a cigarette addict kick the habit, hypnosis can probably help you do a lot of things – including lose weight.
If hypnotherapy is going to be used as a weight loss aid, the hypnotist would have to help you make the behavioral changes necessary that lead to weight loss.
