Weight Management Script, Benefits Approach
Before hypnosis, ask the client to tell you his/her specific benefits for
attaining the ideal weight. Then use appropriate induction and
deepening...
Now imagine you are already at your ideal, healthiest body
weight. You LOVE how you look and feel. Imagine standing in
front of a mirror seeing a reflection of yourself wearing the size
clothes you choose to wear. These clothes LOOK good, and they
FEEL good, and they fit well on you. You hear someone tell you
how good you look. Now imagine doing something you totally
enjoy doing at your ideal weight. Just BE THERE in your mind...
and ENJOY.
Make sure your client's list of benefits is within easy reach. At this time,
suggest all the stipulated benefits in ways that make him/her feel good,
incorporating as many of the five senses as possible. Use programmed
imagery to help establish a positive emotional desire for the benefits.
Now imagine your MOST IMPORTANT BENEFITS SO VIVIDLY that
you feel as though you already enjoy success. Imagine your
attitude of gratitude…and be glad. [Slowly!] Imagine your
benefits... SO VIVIDLY that you FEEL as though you already enjoy
SUCCESS! If you choose these benefits for yourself, then indicate
that choice right now by moving one of your index fingers.
Wait up to a minute for the ideomotor response, then repeat the
suggestion if necessary. If the client fails to give a finger response after
two attempts, then you may have to use parts therapy and/or regression,
etc., to discover and remove the subconscious resistance. Awaken first if
you have not explained regressions or parts therapy so the first
impression of hypnosis is a positive one.
You have used your power of choice to choose your benefits. The
terms are so simple. You simply use that same power of choice to
choose what goes into your mouth... when, where, and how much.
YOU decide what goes into your mouth... when, where, and how
much. And you have an increasing satisfaction from the right
amounts of those foods which help you reach your ideal,
healthiest body weight. And you make wise choices about your
health and eating habits. Also, whenever you choose water or a
non caloric beverage to satisfy an in between meal snack urge,
you are TOTALLY satisfied – physically, mentally, and emotionally,
because YOU CHOOSE....
You LOVE your power of choice. And like a muscle that's used
becomes stronger with use, your power of choice becomes
stronger with use. Imagine using that power of choice right now
to choose water or a non caloric beverage. And when you've
successfully practiced this imagery in your mind, indicate by
moving your finger.
Wait for response.
Very good. Like a muscle that's used becomes stronger with use,
your power of choice becomes stronger with use. And every time
you make a wise choice, it becomes even easier to make wise
choices – because the BENEFITS are so satisfying, and you LOVE
your power of choice!
If client indicates he/she eats too fast, SLOWLY read next paragraph...
otherwise, skip it.
Also, whenever you eat, you eat SLOWLY enough to… ENJOY the
FLAVOR of each bite. And when you have had enough food to give
your body nourishment, you are satisfied – physically, mentally,
and emotionally… and every day it becomes easier for you to be
TOTALLY self motivated to do those things that help you reach
your ideal body weight, because you love the benefits.
If client indicates he/she always cleans plates, read next paragraph...
otherwise, skip it.
You eat... SLOWLY enough to... LISTEN to your body and FEEL
your satisfaction. You allow your physical and emotional appetites
to harmonize. And when you have had enough to eat, you simply
take your thumb or finger and do a PUSH AWAY. Simply push your
plate ever so slightly away from you – pushing away the excess
food and the excess pounds – pound after pound. You release the
excess food and you release the excess pounds – pound after
pound – until you reach your ideal body weight.
Now imagine you are already at your ideal, healthiest body
weight. You LOVE how you look and feel. Imagine standing in
front of a mirror seeing a reflection of yourself wearing the size
clothes you choose to wear. These clothes LOOK good, and they
FEEL good, and they fit well on you. Now imagine doing something
you totally enjoy doing at your ideal weight. Just BE THERE in your
mind – and ENJOY.
At this time, once again use programmed imagery of all the client's
stipulated benefits in ways that establish and strengthen positive
emotional desires to enjoy the benefits. Give positive suggestions for
feeling good about self as well as for the benefits. Continue, and speak
slowly with feeling…
Now imagine your MOST IMPORTANT BENEFITS SO VIVIDLY that
you feel as though you already enjoy success. Imagine your
benefits SO VIVIDLY... that you FEEL as though you already
ENJOY... SUCCESS! You have chosen the benefits because you
absolutely deserve them. KNOW that you deserve the benefits.
You LOVE your power of choice – and every day it becomes easier
and easier for you to be TOTALLY self motivated to do those
things which help you reach and maintain your ideal, healthiest
body weight. And like a muscle that's used becomes stronger with
use, your power of choice becomes stronger with use – giving you
a GREATER STRENGTH OF WILL THAN YOU HAVE EVER KNOWN
BEFORE.
And now, as I give you some silence, once again imagine your
success SO VIVIDLY that all of these ideas and suggestions simply
go deeper and deeper into your subconscious, becoming a part of
you simply because you choose them. And when you again hear
my voice, it will be almost time to come back.
After silence, tell client to remember what was rehearsed in imagination –
and then awaken properly. Weight Management Script, Benefits
