There is no magic bullet that will make you lose weight without
trying. No special diet that lets you eat a huge amount of
food and drop pounds fast. No ab-machine or exer-cycle that
you see at three fifteen in the morning on an infomercial
is really going to make that much difference to you.
We all know the secret to losing weight, right? Eat right,
exercise more and keep a positive attitude. Yes, we all know
that.
If you ever had a weight problem though, you know it’s not
really that simple. Eating right is difficult when your facing
constant hunger, when every food that is good for you tastes
horrible and you are racing full speed ahead from the moment
you wake up until you hop into bed at night making fast food
very tempting. Exercise is time consuming and difficult, sometimes
it can even be downright painful! As for that positive attitude,
well that’s relatively easy. Once you get past the hunger
pangs and the sore muscles, the fact that you have not eaten
anything that you like in a week and a half and have worn
blisters, in places better not mentioned, on that bicycle
seat. After that staying positive is a piece of cake.
Well, no, I guess it really isn’t.
Overlooked in the standard equation though, the eat less and
exercise more truism, is the fact that we are not only physical
beings but psychic ones as well.
There are too many techniques to go over all of them here,
it could literally fill a book, perhaps someday it will. Right
now though action needs to be taken. Americans are gaining
weight at an alarming rate. From our eldest people to our
youngest, we are plumping up at levels never seen before.
We need to address three main areas if we wish to bring about
long term weight-loss. The mental, emotional and physiological
aspects.
This could be a road just as hard as the strictest diet and
as painful as running a marathon. It could be, but It’s not.
Using a few simple techniques, you can bolster your self-discipline,
your metabolic rate and your positive feelings about losing
weight. You can also relieve hunger pains and feelings of
angst over your current weight.
You can do these yourself, or have a friend or professional
help you with them, so don’t be worried that you might not
have never tried anything like this before!
Here are some basic techniques you can use to aid in losing
weight. While simple they are very powerful. You still have
to diet and exercise, these methods will make that easier
to do though.
*Start by calming yourself and quieting your mind. Just take
a minute to not worry about anything, relax and let go of
any distractions.
*Hold the idea in your mind that you are already thin. I know
that this seems strange, but if you want
to lose weight it helps to convince yourself that it is possible.
If your mind rebels and tries to tell you something different
just replace the thought with the idea you are thin and healthy
and don’t worry about it. It will take a bit of time to train
your subconscious mind how to be thin. Spend a few minutes
just “knowing” that you are slim and trim. You don’t even
have to visualize it. In fact, to your deeper self it is more
helpful if you don’t visualize it.
*Now imagine your day. “See” yourself eating a healthy breakfast.
Go about your day until lunch. Hold the concept of all this
time passing without much hunger. Imagine enjoying a lunch
of healthy foods that you arranged in the morning. Know that
stresses will happen and you will let them go. See yourself
going through some exercise and really enjoying it, is it
hard? Sure, but nothing you can’t handle! Go through dinner
in this way as well. Notice that you are not craving sweets
particularly, hunger is not an issue for you either. Perhaps
you will have a small snack before bed? That is up to you.
The important thing here is to use conceptual thought as much
as possible. If you haven’t gotten the trick of thinking in
ideas yet, just do your best. Visualizing your desired day
will work too, just not as powerfully.
*Next we are going to hold several different concepts in a
row. These will actually be building powerful psychic fields
around you, so make sure you keep the ideas/concepts you are
maintaining very clear and as constant as possible.
1. Hold the idea of energy in your body. Feel the energy coursing
through you. Buzzing and exciting your system. This will increase
your metabolic rate. Feel it in every part of your body. Hold
this for at least a minute.
2. Hold the idea of warmth. Starting in the center of your
body warming each part of your being. This will increase your
metabolism even more. Again maintain for at least a minute.
3. Hold the idea of a lack of hunger. This is so powerful
that you must use care not to strip yourself of hunger all
together. This will actually dampen your sense of physical
hunger and appetite. Keep this up for a minute.
4. Finally, hold the concept of happiness. Everyone should
practice this regardless of their desire to lose pounds! It
will ramp up your morale enough to stick with your diet and
exercise program.
There are many other things that can be done to help a person
lose weight using psychic techniques. For instance pain control
methods can make exercise more pleasant, as can simple mood
elevation. Ideas of what kind of foods are tasty can be changed
both internally and from the outside of yourself with a little
help. Metabolism can be increased and adipose tissue can be
triggered to expel fat rather than conserve it.
Sure you will still have to watch what you eat. Yes, exercise
is good for you and should be part of your daily program.
These and other psychic healing methods can help to increase
the ease and effectiveness of weight loss efforts though,
making a definite increase in your quality of life.
If you would like to try these techniques but fear you don’t
have the skill level needed, try and enlist a friend to give
you a hand. If that is not an option you could try getting
professional help to make things easier in the short run.
With practice though, you can learn to do all of these things
and more on your own. That you have the power to control these
thing is clear. Now the question is, do you decide to take
control of your weight, or do you keep doing what you have
always done?
It is up to you.
