Novel and Effective Weight Reduction Technique Does Not Require
Pills, Patches, Supplements or Surgery and Can Easily Prevent
Holiday Weight Gain.
Holiday weight gain is a problem for millions of Americans.
Researchers at the National Institute of Child Health and Human
Development (NICHD) and the National Institute of Diabetes and
Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) found that a large
percentage of Americans who gain weight during the winter
holiday season do not lose the extra weight. In fact, the
weight accumulates over the years.
NICHD Director Duane Alexander, M.D. who noticed this
troublesome trend states:
"These findings suggest that developing ways to avoid holiday
weight gain may be extremely important for preventing obesity
and the diseases associated with it."
Devin Hastings, a researcher and international speaker on
diabetes and the mind states: "During the holiday season, many
people with diabetes face very tough challenges. Harmful eating
habits and weight gain are dangerous and difficult problems for
them. Because of this, I looked for safe answers that could
help my diabetic and overweight clients."
Devin's research "led me to surprising clinical weight loss
findings that can help not only diabetics but anyone who
struggles with weight loss."
As a result of his research and client successes, Devin
created a very informative website for those who are dealing
with obesity and weight loss challenges. This website,
www.Weight-Loss-Answers.com (or
www.WLA4U.com) contains information
that has helped many of his clients to lose weight
successfully and permanently.
"Safe, sustainable weight loss is an inside job. Diet pills,
weight loss programs or even weight loss surgery can not do
what really needs to be done", says Devin who, 9 years ago,
lost over 40 pounds using the method studied and validated by
Harold B. Crasilneck, Ph.D. and James A. Hall, M.D.
What safe weight loss method did doctors Crasilneck and Hall
confirm as effective? They found that: "Hypnotherapy can often
help in treating obesity, an observation that is one of the
most clinically confirmed in all the literature on
hypnosis."(1)
This statement is made more credible because these doctors did
two important things: First, they conducted their own studies
and second they conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis of a
large number of other reliable hypnosis weight loss
studies.
Although this evidence is extremely compelling Devin cautions:
"Hypnosis is not a magic wand. Although some of my clients have
easily lost a lot of weight in a very short period of time,
most of the incredible changes I have seen my clients make are
accomplished over time and with commitment."
Is there other believable evidence that hypnosis can help
people with diabetes and weight loss problems? Yes. In the July
2001 issue of Scientific American it states:
"A 1996 National Institutes of Health technology assessment
panel judged hypnosis to be an effective intervention for
alleviating pain from cancer and other chronic conditions.
Voluminous clinical studies also indicate that hypnosis can
reduce the acute pain experienced by patients undergoing
burn-wound debridement, children enduring bone marrow
aspirations and women in labor.
A meta-analysis published in a recent special issue of the
International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis,
for example, found that hypnotic suggestions relieved the pain
of 75 percent of 933 subjects participating in 27 different
experiments. The pain-relieving effect of hypnosis is often
substantial, and in a few cases the degree of relief matches or
exceeds that provided by morphine." (2)
If severe pain can be controlled by hypnosis then one can
imagine weight loss cravings also being controlled by
hypnosis.
Also, given the dubious safety and effectiveness of diet pills
and the hazards of invasive and often ineffective surgery, one
must wonder why, if hypnosis is so obviously effective for pain
management, why isn't it used before drastic and very expensive
steps for weight loss are taken?
And, since hypnosis has been proven to have the ability to
match or exceed the power of morphine then one must wonder how
much better hypnosis is than diet pills and diet patches.
Who has used hypnosis to change their lives for the better? A
number of people. Internet research has revealed the following
well-known people have benefited from the use of hypnosis:
--Sondra Ray, author of The Only Diet There Is and several
other best sellers.
--Tom Mankiewicz, the super talent who wrote "Superman the
Movie"
--Beau Upchurch, a power-house pitcher for the Dodgers
baseball team.
Devin Hastings also states: " I can absolutely assure you of 2
things: (1) Someone will change their life for the better now
because they have just discovered that intelligent and
accomplished people have successfully used hypnosis. (2) It is
far easier and cheaper to hypnotically prevent weight gain than
it is to lose weight."
Hypnosis has been proven to help anyone use the power of their
mind in a positive, life changing manner. This fact is
clinically confirmed and, interestingly some of society's most
successful have used hypnosis.
As a self-improvement method, hypnosis is worth serious
investigation---especially during the holiday season which is a
time of great stress, weight gain, short tempers and holiday
blues.
To help his clients successfully overcome holiday challenges,
Devin has put together a 1/2 price, self-hypnosis audio program
called The Weight Loss 6-Pack.

Christopher Devin Hastings has over 22 years experience using hypnosis to help people. As well as advanced certification with three of the most prestigious hypnotherapy schools in the United States, Devin has a degree in electronics and was certified in satellite ground equipment technology by the U.S. Army.
My professional background includes work with clients who have succeeded in overcoming situations ranging from nail biting to bulimia. I love what I do. My goal is to facilitate a person’s discovery of their inner healing resources. As far as I am concerned, a therapist is a teacher, guide and coach. First, I teach people about the mind and heart and how they really work. I then guide them to that area within themselves where they can engage in very powerful, positive self-persuasion. At the same time I am coaching my clients toward a more empowering vision of themselves. --C. Devin Hastings
