A habit is usually something you do without thinking about it. You go into autopilot in your mind and reach for that second helping without feeling hungry, or pull out your hair while watching TV, or washing your hands frequently. Those are just a few habits. Most of us have habits. When was the last time you changed your morning routine?
Habits are buried in our subconscious minds. They help us learn to drive quickly and easily. They also help us self-sabotage ourselves without even realizing that is what we are doing.
Our subconscious mind is responsible for carrying out tasks without our conscious awareness; it doesn’t require us to think about these actions or behaviors.
So, whether you would like to build a better habit or break a bad one, you need to retrain your subconscious mind.
Hypnosis to the rescue!
The hypnotist will work with your subconscious mind through customized hypnosis sessions to influence your habits by making strong connections between actions and triggers, so they become automatic.
5 Healthy Habits Hypnosis Can Help You Create
1. Healthy Eating Habits
Hypnosis can be a great way to build healthy eating habits by working with your subconscious mind. It helps you change how you think about food, making healthier choices feel more natural instead of the autopilot you installed as a child that says, “I must have another ____ (you fill in the blank).
During sessions, I guide clients to imagine themselves thriving with nutritious foods. This creates a positive link in the mind, making it easier to reach for fruits and veggies instead of junk food.
We also look at those patterns that were established in childhood. Anyone out there who had to eat everything on their plate, whether they were hungry or not? What can change when you let go of outdated, subconscious programs?

2. Regular Exercise
Many people struggle with finding the motivation to work out consistently. Hypnosis can also help you with incorporating an exercise routine by changing how you feel about exercise, making it seem more enjoyable and rewarding.
Ask yourself: What’s right about exercising that I’m not aware of?
3. Improved Sleep
If you’re struggling with sleep, hypnosis can get to what is running in your mind that keeps you awake. It could be as simple as your bedtime routine, not feeling as if you got everything done that day, too much scrolling or blue light before you get into bed, or some other simple, yet unknown reason.
You relax and together we figure out what is running in your subconscious mind that keeps you worried or fearful.
What could be created for you and your body if you had restful nights and healthier sleep patterns?
4. Increased Productivity
Hypnosis can be an effective way to boost productivity by helping you focus better and eliminate procrastination.
During hypnosis sessions, I take the time to understand your unique situation and goals, while getting to the roots of why you do or don’t do something.
What are you capable of doing that you haven’t yet realized you are capable of?

5. Breaking Bad Habits
Hypnosis is widely used to break bad habits, such as smoking or nail-biting.
It works by changing how your subconscious mind perceives the positive benefits of these habits and reinforcing healthier alternatives.
For example, if you’re trying to quit smoking, hypnosis can help you recognize why you started in the first place. Every time you light up you get that feeling of getting away with something, belonging to a group, or whatever else the younger you decided when you became a smoker.
Direct suggestions work for about five percent of the population, so a great hypnotist gets to why you are doing what you do and resolves those thoughts, feelings, and emotions instead of suggesting what you can do.
