Book Description

Transform Any Diet from Impossible to Achievable with the Power of Your Mind-Body Connection

What’s missing from the hundreds of diets on the market to help us achieve healthier bodies? "The most important element," teaches Dr. Steven Gurgevich, "is not in the body—but in your mind." As a key member of Dr. Andrew Weil’s physician’s training program, Dr. Gurgevich has brought hypnosis to the forefront of modern medicine. With The Self-Hypnosis Diet, he shows that anyone can use medical hypnosis to achieve long-term success in shifting our appetites to healthier foods and reaching our desired weight. With 3 CDs of instruction for using hypnosis to reduce your appetite, increase your metabolism, remove emotional barriers, and more—plus an "emergency" session to instantly deal with cravings.

From AudioFile

The author explains that hypnosis works on the mental components of weight loss such as cravings, body image, and stress. It works as a self-management, self-programing tool that helps people adopt a refreshing and calming state of mind. Hypnosis also helps integrate our deeper selves with our conscious minds to create a powerhouse of focused and consistent weight-loss motivation. Dr. Gurgevich is an intuitive, inviting teacher who explains common hypnosis myths and frames it as a normal practice for accomplishing behavioral goals. The program offers seven guided trance sessions, including one for emergency food cravings. A marvelous addition to anyone's weight-loss toolbox.

I get frustrated when I look at a book, and there is no information on what I am buying...this was one of them, so I did a bit of research....here is what I found:

Look, transform Any Diet from Impossible to Achievable with the Power of Your Mind-Body Connection with this incredible audio CD!

What's missing from the hundreds of diets on the market to help us achieve healthier bodies? "The most important element," teaches Dr. Steven Gurgevich "is not in the body-but in your mind."

As a key member of Dr. Andrew Weil's physician's training program, Dr. Gurgevich has brought hypnosis to the forefront of modern medicine. With The Self-Hypnosis Diet, he shows that anyone can use medical hypnosis to achieve long-term success in shifting our appetites to healthier foods and reaching our desired weight. With 3 CDs of instruction for using hypnosis to reduce your appetite, increase your metabolism, remove emotional barriers, and more-plus an "emergency" session to instantly deal with cravings.

Steven Gurgevich, Ph.D. is a health psychologist specializing in behavioral and mind-body medicine. He resides in Tucson, Arizona and teaches mind-body medicine to physicians at the University of Arizona's College of Medicine.

Acknowledged as one of the top therapist's in the field of mind body medicine, Steven continues to transform our understanding of the meaning of health through his eclectic style and absorb new ideas through a process of osmosis. He works through the new life-giving paradigm combining major work and insights from psychology, holistic healthcare and spiritual wisdom that encompass the fundamental principle that perfect health is more than just the absence of disease.

Suggestions (direct and indirect) and other hypnotic phenomena, therapeutic interventions and language structures are made and utilized, so you can achieve something you want, or something that will benefit you, and in this hypnotic state, that acceptance goes even deeper than it would in non-hypnotic states. The control is with you, your own control of yourself, your mind and body.

Hypnosis allows you to control aspects of your whole being that normally you have no direct control over. You can only be hypnotized if and when you agree to it. You accept, comply and act on only those suggestions that feel right to you - suggestions that fit your moral and value systems.

The clinical side of my work and the clinical application of hypnosis is thoroughly practical and down to earth and I use it to treat all kinds of disorders, both physical and psychological such as stopping smoking, building a positive self-image, living more creatively, conquering fear and phobias, losing weight, gaining success through personal and professional development, generating positive change, eliminating problems and influencing your health. It is undoubtedly the single most powerful and under utilized resource in healthcare and personal development today.

One of the most common issues for the use of hypnosis is weight loss. Hypnosis has been proven to be very effective for the use of losing weight. Are you tired of trying failed weight loss pills and diets, Use hypnosis! We realize that weight loss can be powerfully effective when working with the subconscious mind to create natural actions of shedding those pounds. Stop searching! Its here!

Description: This CD is designed to create a mental desire to lose weight and natural bodily actions to lose weight. You will acknowledge the choices set before you and choose a new direction that creates strong desire and dedication to your goals of losing weight. You will be given suggestions for your unconscious mind to speed up your metabolism, to burn un-needed fats and to create more energy for you to be more active throughout your days. This CD is designed to create a mind and body union in your goals to lose weight naturally.

I liked this audio book. Techniques used here are really guided meditations. Ultimately it is the power of your own mind that will help you succeed through meditation/self hypnosis. Process and steps are clearly explained. Interesting and worth a listen.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Power of the Mind-Body Connection, July 7 2006
By Rebecca Johnson "The Rebecca Review" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Self-Hypnosis Diet: Use the Power of Your Mind to Make Any Diet Work for You [With 6-Page Study Guide] (Audio CD)
Steven Gurgevich, Ph.D. specializes in mind-body medicine. As your guide, he leads you through a number of hypnosis sessions that are non-threatening and nurturing. Having someone in your life to encourage you is a very powerful force for change. Spending time reprogramming your thinking patterns helps to banish negativity so you can achieve the change you are seeking.

In the first session time is spent explaining how thoughts influence the body and how the body influences thoughts. Steven Gurgevich explores the dynamics of weight loss and explores how you can achieve your perfect weight. He gives insight into the origins of emotional eating and explains why diet beverages can actually cause you to gain weight.

In the second session acceptance and self control are encouraged and positive affirmations encourage new positive lifestyle choices. I love the part where you imagine you are going up stairs into a castle tower. I felt like he was reading my mind because for a long time I've had such a place to escape to and it brings a sense of comfort. In this tower, you sit in a chair and listen to a calming voice leading you to places where you can remove emotional obstacles and understand why you may choose certain foods for various reasons. This hypnosis sessions on this disk include: healthy habits, emotional barriers, self-love and acceptance, and self-control for cravings and temptations.

In sessions three there are various ideas that bring healing to your life. You may choose to spend more time enjoying the preparation of food or choose to step away from food and introduce other emotionally fulfilling activities in place of unconscious eating. I did think that the idea about throwing away food was not a good idea after dinner - instead freeze the leftovers and reheat the next day. This will allow you more time to exercise because you won't be spending so much time cooking. There is a morning motivation, before dinner hypnosis and a bedtime hypnosis.

Through listening to the three CDs, you can convince yourself that weight loss is a worthwhile achievement and you can start to reprogram your mind so your metabolism increases and your self-confidence is renewed.

If you prefer not to put yourself in a trance (it feels more like relaxing into words), you can just listen to the CDs while fully present and gain a sense of what it will take to make an ally of your subconscious. You can use positive affirmations and many of the ideas to establish healthier habits over time. A booklet is included with additional tips and techniques for lifestyle changes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beneficial to my weight loss program, Jan 13 2006
By Blessed Reader "Sal" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Self-Hypnosis Diet: Use the Power of Your Mind to Make Any Diet Work for You [With 6-Page Study Guide] (Audio CD)
I have been listening to the book for 11 days now and have lost 8 lbs. I am not exercising much (yet) other than parking further back in the lots and am not on any special diet plan other than eating whole, healthy foods, limiting dessert to 1 time per week and making sure I eat at least 3 times a day. I shoot for 3 small meals per day with snacks but have a hard time eating that often. Anyway...I listen to the book with headphones when I go to bed. It does have a wake up at the end, but it doesn't wake me once I am sleeping. When I wake in the morning I feel rested; I have found it amazingly easy to make healthy food choices and I credit this CD. I do recommend listing to hypnosis tapes daily when you first start.

The nice thing about these CD's (3 in all) is that you don't have to do any work except find the time to listen. I feel myself carried into a trance state without much difficulty, perhaps because this happens in the safety of my own home. The first CD gives many tips on reaching your perfect weight. The second has four separate hypnosis sessions (like guided meditations). Each one addresses a different issue around weight issues - changing your taste for foods, finding your own, unique reasons for gaining weight in the first place, loving yourself and visualizing the cells of your body functioning the way you want them to, and craving control. The third and final CD is one you should use daily, with three separate sessions for morning, before dinner, and before sleep.

In addition to the focus on weight loss and gaining your perfect body, there is an emphasis on feeling good in general, which I like very much.

I would say that for me these CD's are proving effective. In the past five days I have lost three pounds without stress. I notice that I'm drinking my green drink more than once a day(very unusual for me) and just am less interested in food. Pretty impressive.
