Guidance - Ideal weight<\/strong><\/p>\n

Achieve your ideal weight with mental training<\/strong><\/p>\n

The yo-yo effect<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are lots of weight loss methods that can help you lose weight. The problem is that you usually gain weight again when you stop using the method. Going up and down in weight (yo-yoing) in this way is directly harmful to the body.<\/p>\n

New lifestyle<\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to reach and then maintain your ideal weight, you need to change your habits and adopt a new and better lifestyle. This includes changes in habits and behaviour, but also in your thoughts, attitude and inner images of yourself and the future. To achieve this, this training programme uses a highly effective self-influence method \u2013 Mental Training.<\/p>\n

Mental basic training as a foundation<\/strong><\/p>\n

To reach your target weight through a better lifestyle, your brain is programmed with images of the future that you choose yourself. After that, weight reduction occurs in a simple, natural and obvious way. However, this is based on the \u201dmental space\u201d, an alternative state of consciousness (self-hypnosis), where images of the future are integrated and then control the body and mind. If you have not trained mentally before, it may be beneficial to combine this training programme with the \u201dMental Basic Training\u201d programme.\u201d<\/p>\n

IDEAL WEIGHT THROUGH MENTAL TRAINING<\/strong><\/p>\n

Research<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ideal weight training is based on principles that I developed during 15 years of research at Uppsala University (1960-1975). Among other things, I demonstrated that<\/p>\n

1. The voluntary control of bodily functions can be supplemented with \u201dalternative control systems\u201d (ACS), such as \u201dinner images\u201d and \u201dtriggers\u201d.<\/p>\n

2. Alternative control systems are most effective when combined with an alternative state of consciousness (ASC) (self-hypnosis or the \u201dmental room\u201d).<\/p>\n

3. Through a combination of AMT and AKS, control can be gained over bodily processes that cannot be controlled by the will.<\/p>\n

4. In order for effects to become permanent (learning and automation), regular training over a longer period of time is required.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. This training can be just as effective with recorded training programmes as with personal coaching.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Application examples<\/strong><\/p>\n

    A few months after an experiment in which I demonstrated that motor skills could be developed through \u201dimage programming\u201d and non-conscious learning processes, I was contacted by a woman who briefly told me the following: After a month of mental training, she decided to use the training to create a \u201dbetter life.\u201d With the help of a book I had written for sports, she did the following.<\/p>\n

    Step 1. <\/strong>Breakdown of a better life in the target areas: Health, Work and Family.<\/p>\n

    Step 2.<\/strong> Division of health into areas of activity, one of which was her excess weight.<\/p>\n

    Step 3. <\/strong>Decision to lose 25 kg in 9 months.<\/p>\n

    Step 5. <\/strong>Translating these \u201dintellectual\u201d goals into visual images. According to her, this was the most difficult part, as her self-image was fixed on the weight she had had for so many years. She solved this by choosing a model, idol or role model, just like in sports, a friend who had the body she wanted. She also chose the clothes she would fit into after reaching her ideal weight.<\/p>\n

    Step 6.<\/strong> During seven mental training sessions in her mental room, she clearly and concretely visualised these images of the future, i.e. herself having achieved her ideal weight.<\/p>\n

    Step 7.<\/strong> Nothing \u201dafter that,\u201d she said, \u201dI didn't do anything else, but now it's been nine months and today I'm 25 kg lighter.\u201d Based on previous experiments, I explained this \u201dmysterious\u201d weight loss by saying that the images of the future she had programmed into her mental space had influenced her automatic thoughts, images and behaviours (lifestyle) and that these unconscious processes had been directed towards the programmed goals. Since then, I have seen thousands of examples of this \u201dcybernetic\u201d process, and today it is the most important complement to conscious and intentional mental training. It also fits well with the creative process, where problem identification combined with goal programming can lead to solutions emerging without actively working on the solution process itself.<\/p>\n

    PROGRAMME 1 \u2013 THE ROAD TO YOUR IDEAL WEIGHT<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Preparatory work<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Before you start exercising, you should do as the woman in the example above did. In other words, you should decide what your ideal weight should be and translate that goal into a mental image, i.e. create a picture in your mind of what you (your body) will look like when you have reached this ideal weight. If you want, you can also decide how long \u201dyour body\u201d has to reach this ideal weight. Give it plenty of time, as a slow decline over time is better than a rapid one. Also, create some situations in the future where you see yourself at your ideal weight (trying on clothes, at the beach, in the bathroom mirror in the morning, hearing compliments from friends, etc.). You can then programme these situation-based images into your training routine.<\/p>\n

    Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The programme begins with relaxation of both body and mind, followed by an introduction to the \u201dmental space\u201d. If you already have one, you can of course use what you have. If you don't have one yet, you will have the opportunity to create one. It can look however you want and can also be a place in nature or even a colour or feeling that you make into your \u201dmental space\u201d. You can place this \u201dspace\u201d in your heart region. This is because new research from the Heart Math Institute has shown that problem images are dissolved and goal images are integrated more effectively if you let it happen in the heart region.<\/p>\n

    Target programming<\/strong><\/p>\n

    In the self-hypnotic state that the mental space creates, the brain's way of working changes both quantitatively and qualitatively. Among other things, the brain begins to work as a whole, which means that images are received and programmed without being \u201dbroken down\u201d through analysis. You experience yourself in the future situations you have created beforehand. Use as many senses as possible so that you both \u201dsee,\u201d hear, and feel what is happening. Also, experience the joy and satisfaction that comes with achieving your goal.<\/p>\n

    The path to your ideal weight<\/strong><\/p>\n

    As a complement to the automatic changes that goal programming brings about, you will also receive suggestions and images about:<\/p>\n

    -Feeling full after eating a smaller amount of food<\/p>\n

    -Eating more \u201dproper\u201d food<\/p>\n

    -Increasing motivation to exercise<\/p>\n

      \n
    • -Achieving increased self-confidence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Training duration<\/strong><\/p>\n

      You should use this programme regularly (ideally three times a week) from the moment you set your target weight until you reach your ideal weight.<\/p>\n

      PROGRAMME 2 \u2013 MAINTAINING YOUR IDEAL WEIGHT<\/strong><\/p>\n

      In this programme, which also begins with relaxation and a shift to the mental space, the mental training focuses on stabilising your ideal weight and the lifestyle that has helped you achieve it. You will also receive suggestions about increased satisfaction and joy over your achieved target weight and about letting your new lifestyle give rise to increased quality of life and enjoyment of life.<\/p>\n

      Training duration<\/strong><\/p>\n

      You use this programme three times a week or until you feel that your ideal weight and new lifestyle have become an integral part of who you are.<\/p>\n

      PROGRAMME 3 \u2013 SLEEP<\/strong><\/p>\n

      During sleep, the events of the day are processed (sorting and memory storage) and spontaneous problem solving takes place (sleep and dreams as a \u201dcleaning lady\u201d). Sleep and dreams can also be used to process tasks identified before falling asleep. In this programme, you therefore have the opportunity to create images of the future (e.g. \u201dideal weight images\u201d) in order to continue \u201dprogramming\u201d these while you sleep.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
