Sugar Addiction and Binge Eating
Millions and millions of people are addicted to sugar to some extent and many who don't think they are a sugar addict would in fact find it very difficult to eliminate it from their diet for a couple of weeks.
There is an argument that any sugar is 'too much' and there is a mass of scientific research showing how bad it is for people. Just think of the levels of obesity and Type II diabetes in the 'western' world.
Because it's a drug, pure and simple. Foods with this substance aren't called 'comfort foods' for nothing. Try putting a little sugar on your tongue and notice what happens….for most people, it tastes good and feels good.
Actually, sugar raises insulin levels, which then triggers an adrenal response (the sugar rush), and causes the release of serotonin (one of your body's 'happy chemicals'). Eating sugar is a chemical addiction that provides a 'high' for a while, that is inevitably followed by a dip in blood sugar level and a 'low', and at this point people with this problem will eat more sweet things to stop feeling bad, and start feeling good. And so the cycle continues…
It's also a psychological habit. Like any habit, it's often something the often person does without thinking about too much.
We favor the direct approach and tend to use a range of direct, straightforward techniques from the fields of hypnosis. It is all about training your mind to do what you want it to, and making healthy responses to food automatic. It isn't therapy, we aren't looking for 'why' you eat to much sugary food or drink too many sugary drinks, it is about aiming your thinking, feeling and behaviour towards a healthier and healthier lifestyle.
Binge eating disorder is a pattern of behaviour that affects many people. Whatever the reasons for the existence of this pattern it is possible to help you make changes in the way that you eat by using hypnosis so that you simply stop eating too much food.
It often seems that it is simply beyond control, but you can learn to stop binge eating for good. Very often, these binge eating disorder behavior's seem to be literally just beyond the conscious control of an individual. We work on multiple levels to help you to re-establish more appropriate eating behaviour. This isn't counseling, or advice, just practical proven hypnosis to retrain your thinking and your behaviour, to easily stop you losing control.
Gain that control Consciously, we show you HOW to take control of the 'automated' thoughts as they arrive in your mind, By doing this you can learn to change these thoughts which in turn have tended to create feelings of desire for food. Then, with hypnosis, we work to help you to re pattern the behavior at an unconscious level, so that the desire for binge eating simply fades away.
Get advice on nutrition if necessary We always think it is a good idea for our clients with 'issues' around food, whether with binge eating or not, to get professional advice from a qualified nutritionist.
Many people do find their experience of learning to stop their binge eating disorder and control their consumption of food (and feeling comfortable within themselves as they do so) a liberating experience.
