At this point it is fairly well known how traditional and conversational hypnosis can aid weight loss. Yet for some people these kinds of treatment can a little too abstract to comprehend. Imagine for a second that you knew nothing of hypnotherapy and someone told you that they can help you lose weight simply by talking in a certain manner to you. You’d think they were crazy, right?

Recently there has been a unique weight loss solution released called Gastric Band Hypnotherapy. This is a much more tangible form of hypnotherapy in so much as the patient is talked through multiple sessions as if they are having a real gastric band operation performed. For most people this is much more “real” and easier to imagine as it replicates a real life medical procedure. The idea is that once the subconscious mind becomes convinced that the stomach really has had a gastric band fitted and then desires food in an according manner. This works in the same way an appetite suppressant would, only it doesn’t require constantly shelling out money every month for a fresh supply of pills.

If you ever ask a friend for advice on picking up a woman you will invariably hear two suggestions – be yourself and be confident. These two clichés are bandied about more than any other in the dating game and I’m hear today to tell you that both are utter hogwash.

But how can that be when you hear that advice all the time? Well there’s certainly an element of truth…once you are already a master of the dating game. However when you’re making your first forays into the art of seduction then there is only one thing you should focus on – interest.

When I say “interest” I mean you have to be interesting and look as if you are genuinely interested in the woman you are talking, even if your only goal is to get them in your bed at the end of the night and nothing more. This is why being yourself may not be a good idea at first. Most people are actually frightening dull and they don’t even realize it.

Positive affirmations are commonly used in hypnosis to help the subconscious mind take on a certain suggestion. The idea is that with constant repetition you will begin to believe that something is true. As the saying goes, “If you say something often enough it becomes true”.

Creating a good positive affirmation is simple. Think of something you wish was true about yourself and fashion a phrase or multiple phrases around it. For example, if you wish to become a more confident person you might use the positive affirmations below.

“I feel comfortable around other people.”
“My value is appreciated by everyone.”
“I am a calm, confident person.”

While positive affirmations can be effective repeated to yourself normally, I find that they work much better as suggestions during a hypnotic trance which is why I have created this script for use with affirmations and achieving goals.

The idea for this script was inspired by a recent article at HypnoBusters, How To Achieve Your Goals which you may want to read before learning this self hypnosis script.
