It’s that time of year again.
We’ve welcomed in the New Year (and decade!) and it’s time to set our New Year resolutions.
We tell ourselves that this year is definitely the year we’re going to change our lives for the better. It’s ‘good riddance’ to those bad habits and ‘hello‘ to those new healthy habits.
Yes, this year we are definitely going to make that dream a reality.
What resolutions have you set?
What resolutions have you set, or are thinking about setting? Perhaps you’ve resolved to:
- quit smoking for your children and grandchildren.
- lose weight and look great for that upcoming big event
- build your self-esteem
- achieve that elusive work/life balance
- run your first marathon
- overcome that fear of flying, enclosed spaces, heights, spiders ……
- write that book
- learn to play guitar, the piano, the ukulele
- start your own business
Change can be difficult
Our motivation is always highest at the start of a new activity, but we often falter at the first sign of temptation or stress.
Change can be difficult because we’re creatures of habit and when things become difficult we revert to our familiar behaviours, and trusted coping mechanisms, even if they’re unhealthy ones, such as comfort eating, smoking, drinking.
Research tells us most people have abandoned their resolutions by the start of February. Perhaps you’re still working on resolutions you made last year …. or even the year before, because you just couldn’t follow them through?
The keys to permanent change
Permanent change takes motivation, commitment, effort, know-how and patience plus use of the right tools and techniques.
One of the most powerful tools available to you is hypnosis.
Create rapid, permanent change with hypnosis
With hypnosis you use your mind to change your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. When you do this you change your life.
That’s right, hypnosis can really help you make your resolutions a reality by creating rapid, permanent, change.
Rapid change is not the same as rapid results
I need to make it clear that rapid change is not the same as rapid results. You can change in an instant but you may not experience the results for some time as the change takes effect.
For example, take someone who wants to lose weight and has spent years of their life overeating, being attracted to the wrong food, not moving enough etc but then helped by hypnosis they go ahead and lose 20 kilos.
People see them now and say, “haven’t you changed” as though it was the ‘having lost 20 kilos’ that was the change. But these people aren’t actually commenting on the ‘change’ they are commenting on the ‘result’ of the change. The ‘change’ actually occurred in an instant. The day they stopped those unhealthy lifestyle choices. In fact, they actually changed long before other people began to notice.
How hypnosis can make it easier for you to make your resolution(s) a reality
Hypnosis can help you:
- change your mind-set
- change automated behaviours
- remove obstacles and barriers to change
- enhance your motivation
- focus on achieving your goals
Whatever your resolutions may be, if you want 2020 to be the year you make real change, you can make their achievement a lot easier by using hypnosis. When you do, you’ve taken an important step towards making this the year you achieve your goals and dreams.
