Time for a new story?

If you are trying to lose weight and finding it a struggle, maybe it’s time for a new story about you and your relationship to food. Weight loss hypnosis clients of Slender For Life™ discover the stories they have told in the past about using food for love, nurturing and safety and then have the opportunity to create new stories that support them in their weight loss and health.

Last Sunday my blog post was So what’s your story? In this post I quoted from my book, Becoming Slender For Life and told about how I equated cinnamon rolls to unconditional love and unconditional acceptance. This coming Sunday my post will be What does food symbolize to you? (also from Becoming Slender For Life). With hypnosis for weight loss you can create a new story that allows you to put an end mental and emotional eating.

Sunday night I was blessed with the opportunity to be with the women of Biggest Loser program at Charlotte Wedrick’s Health First Fitness in Forks, WA. I read So what’s your story? to them and then had them write about their relationship with food using the exercise, What does food symbolize to you? from Becoming Slender For Life.

We each have our own stories, our myths about ourselves, about our lives, about the people and the world around us. We hold our myths, our truths, to be sacred, yet all too often these truths are fairy tales—perhaps, even horror stories that we have made up— and then we live our life according to these fables.

Reinforcing these fables we create is our cellular memory. As you will see in the next section when we go on a field trip through the brain, all thought, all memory and all emotion occurs and is stored in every cell of your body. The smell of a cherry pie baking or the sound of a parent’s voice can instantly rocket us back into childhood—into that trance where you experience thoughts and emotions of an earlier time.

For me, cinnamon rolls represent my Grandma’s unconditional love and unconditional acceptance. For many years as an adult, anytime I felt the least bit unloved or unaccepted I was in the bakery buying cinnamon rolls. Cinnamon rolls provided a momentary relief, but the unloved feelings never went away. Thanks to weight loss hypnosis I now can think of cinnamon rolls and smell cinnamon rolls and get in touch with Grandma’s love – but I don’t have to eat them
