“Way down, way down, way down.”

The key to making your weight go “way down” may lie in your mind.

Hypnotherapist Diane Edwards believes reprogramming your subconscious is essential to losing weight and keeping it off.

“In issues like weight control, most of our habits are subconscious. So people know what they need to do and they know what they don’t need to do, but do it anyway.”

Diane says bad eating habits are rooted in emotions.

We eat, she said, because it reminds us of a happier time or because we have a reason to fear being thin.

“What I would do is look back and see what was going on in their lives when they were last thin, because that’s usually where the issue lies.”

Once the cause is found, many patients experience dramatic changes in eating habits after just one session.

Others need repeat visits and occasional refreshers.

But hypnotherapy is not for everyone.

“They’re generally the people who want the pill. They want a quick fix. It doesn’t work for people who want a quick fix.”
