Being comfortable and relaxed, it was easy to begin self hypnosis. I kept my body totally relaxed, breathed slowly and rhythmically and felt the life-giving energies tingling through my being. I concentrated on my breathing and sunk deeper into a trance. What a happy, contented and powerful place to be.
I already had my reasons for wanting to lose weight, so now I had to confirm them, gently but firmly so that I had good intentions and incentives to succeed;
- One of the seven deadly sins is gluttony. When half the world is starving, it seems crass and immoral to eat more than is sufficient.
- My weight is affecting my breathing at night, so my health is suffering.
- I now have very few clothes to fit and I can't afford to buy more.
- I want to feel good about myself and have energy and new vitality.
- I have never enjoyed being a hippopotamus.
I repeated my reasons and my goal over and over until I felt ready to begin my venture. Then I drifted off to sleep.
I'm full of good intentions and doing well but I want to chart my progress and can't find my bathroom scales! They seem to have gone missing when we moved house. Very annoying. Anyway, I promise to keep you posted.
