How to Make Your
New
Years Resolutions Come True Through Self-Hypnosis
We often
have good Intentions for making our resolutions a reality, but something
often seems to stop us. What is that? Why can’t we fulfill what we want
to do? In simple terms, it is usually emotional blocks that stop us.
Also, if you don’t have some tools to help you, it’s almost impossible
to end that bad habit.
What are
some of these blocks? Oftentimes, it is a habit called self-sabotage.
That is usually the core of any habit that can’t be fixed. We often say
to ourselves I can’t do that or I don’t deserve that.
Although
we say these things to ourselves, they aren’t true. It’s our old
programming that is telling us this. So what do we do about it? We use
self-hypnosis for giving ourselves good suggestions and cancel out the
negative.
So, when
you hear yourself saying, I can’t quit smoking or stop overeating, or
any other bad habit, you can say to yourself CANCEL, CANCEL, CANCEL.
Then follow it up with a positive affirmation such as, "I can be free of
cigarettes and be healthy."
Notice,
I didn’t say, "I can stop smoking." The reason I didn’t say that, was
that we are often told as children to stop doing this thing or that
thing. In reality the subconscious doesn’t want to be told what to do
and secretly will want to rebel.
So if
you tell yourself to stop smoking, etc., you will more than likely want
to smoke even more. So, choose to eliminate the word "stop" in your
vocabulary.
It’s
also good to eliminate negative ‘t words such as can’t, don’t, and
shouldn’t. If you want to succeed, only use positive words and positive
sentences. I often use the phrase, "I can choose to eat less," or "I can
choose to be fearless. I am Wonder Woman."
Another
thing that we can do is notice when these habits occur. In other words,
notice when you want to do the habit. Maybe it’s in your car or when you
go out to dinner or if it is something like a fear, notice what triggers
the fear. Maybe it’s walking into a room of strangers or having to do a
speech.
If you
find that fear is taking over your life, you can realize that the fear
only lasts a few seconds, and that you are more critical of yourself
than how other people perceive you.
It also
helps to take a few minutes to breathe. Then pretend you are talking to
your best friend when you are presenting to a group. Take some time to
think about what positive thing you could do to change your habit into
something that can be eliminated.
Sometimes it is just changing one aspect. For example, when I stopped
smoking I didn’t think about what I was missing, I thought about what I
was gaining such as, I could breath better, I could hike up mountains
easier and I didn’t worry about my health as much. Then I would go for a
walk or I’d read a good book instead of smoking. After awhile the good
habit outdid the bad one.
If after
doing all this and you can’t stop your habit, it only means that you
have some deep blocks that you haven’t been able to access yourself.
That is the time to make an appointment with a hypnotherapist who knows
how to eliminate old blocks.
