Overcoming Binge Eating
If you want to stop binge eating, hypnosis is one of the easiest and most effective ways to do so. Let’s face it – there is nothing good about binge eating at all. Sure, it might temporarily get your mind of your worries and give you short-term pleasure. But it does so at a high cost.
Not only can it lead to extreme weight-gain, obesity and all kinds of health issues. It can also have a negative effect on your self-esteem.

Food itself is of course a good thing. It nourishes you and is vital for your health. It can also make you feel good. But just like every other good thing, it can turn bad if you indulge excessively.
What happens most of the time is there are things on our minds, that we don’t want to think about. Things that are bothering us – and food has the power to erase these things from our mind temporarily. That’s why we start with the first couple of bites – and afterwards, we just can’t stop it, it’s as if some part of us is out of control.
You already have made an important first step in overcoming binge eating: you have acknowledged that it is in fact a problem. And you have made a decision that you want to solve this problem and stop it.
There are many things you can do. One thing is – you can get rid of all the foods that you usually like to binge on, and also forbid yourself to buy them again. It is not a perfect solution, but it is one small obstacle that you put in front of your next binge eating attack. The more difficult you make binge eating, the less likely that you will do it again.
Another thing that can really help is to write a journal every day. Every day, write down how you felt, what you thought about, which feelings and thoughts triggered the overeating and so on. Also write down the times when you ate and what and how much you ate. The point is to bring what is happening into your consciousness even more clearly. Because when you binge eat, you really are in an altered state of mind, it is a very specific kind of self-induced hypnotic trance state.
That is also why hypnosis can be such a powerful binge eating treatment. Because it can directly influence the subconscious behavior mechanisms that are at work in the process of binge eating, and replace them with more effective and desirable behaviors.
So right now, for example a particular thought of something that causes you emotional stress might lead to an emotion that leads to an impulse that leads to binge eating.

With hypnosis, you can break up this chain, and change the links of the chain. So that unpleasant thought for example might lead to a certain emotion, and that emotion might remind you then that you have to put yourself into a more pleasant emotional state. Hypnosis can cause your brain to naturally release more serotonin, which is the brains own “feel good substance”.
Then you will be able to stop negative thoughts and be relaxed, without having to use binge eating to relieve emotional stress. You can get rid of the compulsion and find better ways to relax and feel good.
