Bulimia Nervosa Treatments

Treatment Of Bulimia Nervosa - NLP and hypnotherapy

To watch this on YouTube go here Cure for bulimia

This has become something of a specialist area for me, though I certainly didn’t plan this to happen. It’s just that the results tend to be so positive, so quickly, and I have had so many testimonials from satisfied ex-bulimics, that my work with eating disorders, and especially the NLP treatment for bulimia, has snowballed.

The Marie Claire Article

But it wasn’t until Marie Claire wrote a piece about NLP a few years ago that things really took off. I remember when I got the call.

‘Hi’, the woman said, ‘I am from Marie Claire and we are doing a piece on NLP, we have got someone to do spider phobia and someone to do stopping smoking and we would like you to write something about weight loss’.

We are often approached by the press to help with articles and many of us have been on the radio and some of us have been on TV. Whilst ‘weight loss’ is a hugely important issue (pun intended) I wanted to do something more ‘interesting’ after all, there are lots of methods that work to help someone to lose weight (believe it or not). And anyway, I had just that day had news that the two women for whom I had given treatment for bulimia the previous week had both stopped doing it.

A Piece On How To Cure Bulimia

‘What about a piece on bulimia’, I said, and the journalist thought it was a great idea, all she wanted me to do was provide her with an ex client who was willing to appear in Marie Claire, with a photograph, and tell the world about her recovery.

I put the phone down and thought ‘damn’, where am I going to find an ex client who is willing to do that.’ After all, most people who do, or have done bulimia usually don’t shout about it from the rooftops, and some have never told anyone about their problem (one kept her bulimia to herself for thirty five years...)

By a staggering coincidence (not that I believe in coincidences), a woman called Claire rang me about two hours later.

‘You probably don’t remember me,’ she said, I came to see you about a year ago and you cured my bulimia and I have a friend who wants your help with something else.

‘Claire’, I said, ‘how would you like to be in Marie Claire. She agreed immediately. Sometimes things just fall into place beautifully, don’t you think?

The Treatment Of Bulimia With NLP And Hypnotherapy

And then I thought, ‘how on earth am I going to put what I do into words?’

In the end I wrote a very long piece which is printed in full in the ‘Cure Bulimia’ section of this website, here - Treatment Of Bulimia Article - they only used part of it in the magazine.

Sometimes self hypnosis recordings can be very effective in the treatment of bulimia, have a look at the online shop on JustBeWell.com here Overcome Bulimia or on my USA based site here – Self Help For Bulimia

Please feel free to comment after reading the article and also have a read through the many pages of testimonials from clients for whom this form of treatment for bulimia has worked. Most people who suffer from bulimia find it hard to believe that they can often stop doing it quickly and easily. But they can.

Personal Approaches To The Treatment Of Bulimia

Some of the practitioners on JustBeWell.com will have their own tried and tested methods to cure bulimia so before you decide to make a booking, do have a chat with them about how they will work for you.

Dizziness Treatments

Hypnotherapy And NLP For The Treatment Of Dizziness

Watch this video on YouTube Stop Being Dizzy

We get to see a lot of people to help them to stop being dizzy, to give them our combination of hypnotherapy and NLP treatment for dizziness. We use a variety of approaches that work including training the mind and body to literally become more ‘centred’.

Now over the years we have seen a number of high ranking people from the medical professions. True, NLP is not yet widely accepted within the traditional medical industries but it is bound to be sooner or later for one simple reason.

It works.

Dizziness Treatments Case History: The Dizzy Surgeon

Anyway the first time I saw a surgeon it was to get him to stop being dizzy. Now dizziness is not a good problem for an orthopaedic surgeon to have, some of those operations last for hours. This man had had this problem for years, and it had steadily been getting worse as time had gone by. It had reached the point where he had begun to sway to and fro whilst in theatre, and he was desperate.

Which is why he eventually turned up at my door, I suppose. Mind you, he had spent the previous four years going up and down Harley Street seeing top ENT specialists and consultant neurologists, and he had a host of possible ideas as to why he was suffering from dizziness

Their 'treatments' hadn’t helped his dizziness at all

‘You are my last resort,’ he said, in a resigned tone.

‘Good’, I said, ‘that’s my favourite’. And I went on to explain that I always plan on being people’s last resort. That is, they won’t need to see anyone after me because they will be OK. At least, that’s the plan.

If you want to make dizziness worse, then keep thinking about it!

As he sat in the chair swaying back and forth I asked him if it was the kind of problem where the more he thought about it the worse it got. That’s a trick question really, it’s always like that. Focus on the problem and, lo and behold, it gets worse.

Sure enough his swaying did get worse, and I thought to myself, ‘surely it can’t be this easy’.

The Art Of Being Centred

I got him to focus on a point approximately two inches below his navel, and told him that when his mind started to drift, to bring his awareness back to this point.
Now those of you who are into Japanese based martial arts will recognise this point in the body as something called, in Japan, hara. It’s about where the physiological centre of balance is for the body. It’s where the power comes from when someone punches through a plank, it’s where you ‘move from’ when you get good at Judo or Aikido. And if you are into meditation you may know that the same point in the body is called the sacral chakra by some, and those into Chinese ways may be familiar with it under the name 'dan tien'

.

I am not saying that these things are the same in these different systems, just related. Anyway, it doesn’t matter what you call it,- this area a couple of inches below the navel,- you could call it ‘Benjamin’ and it would still be there and still be very useful.

A million years ago I did a lot of martial arts myself and I always used to take beginners into the middle of the dojo (training area) and demonstrate this. That is, I would get them to stand with their feet shoulder width apart with one foot slightly in front of the other. Then I would tap them very gently on the top of the head with my finger tip whilst saying ‘think about this, think about this’. After a few seconds of this I would push them very gently on the shoulder.

And they would fall over, or nearly fall over.

Then I would get them to stand in the same way and get them to focus in a ‘tenaciously gentle’ way on 'hara', this point a couple of inches below the naval. If you have your hand resting on someone’s shoulder as they take their awareness into the centre of their body like this you can feel them getting more solid and grounded, much more. It is very tangible.

You can still push them over, especially if they are a beginner, but it takes much more effort.

So anyway I stood the surgeon up and did exactly what I had done all those years ago, I got him to focus on ‘hara’ and the swaying stopped, well virtually stopped.

Breathing Into The Earth

Then I got him to do a powerful breathing technique which involves breathing normally and imagining that the out-breath is powering down through the body, through the feet and deep into the centre of the earth.

And the swaying completely stopped, and he was very impressed.

Then I sat him down and did a range of NLP techniques to get him to focus on what he wanted, being stable and centred (rather than stopping dizziness).
He came back the following week and reported that the treatment had eliminated about 70% of the dizziness problem and after an hour’s more work he was fine, and stayed that way.

Once Again This Isn’t About Not Wanting The Problem – It’s Just About Aiming At The Solution

So here is yet another example of what works, getting the client to think about what he wanted, rather than trying not to think about what he didn’t want, not getting him to stop being dizzy, getting him to start being centred. I recommend the ‘hara’ technique to everyone. You can do it anytime, and the more you gently focus on your ‘centre’ the more centred you will become. It’s this simple. It is especially obvious when giving treatments for dizziness but it works to help a host of issues.

Change is not time based!

Many clients who see me through JBW have already spent a considerable amount of time previously trying out all manner of approaches including councelling and psychotherapy. They often have the belief that "Change is going to take a long time..." I even had one client who had 1500 psychotherapy sessions! One of the many benefits of NLP as taught by Richard Bandler (this is IMO very different to NLP taught by others) is that this is an accelerated approach. I have found the best practitioners will have trained with a number of different people and take the best from these people to create a new set of skills that's not just a copy of what they have seen in trainings.

I rarely see clients for more than three sessions no matter how severe "the problem" Combining NLP with Ericksonian Hypnosis and Frank Farrelly's strategies produces an even more refined and accelerated set of successful outcomes for clients. Many clients are so impressed with results that often they themselves become interested in the approaches that they have found so beneficial!

The Power in NOW

Since its conception, NLP has continued to stir up waves within every industry it has touched. From the contributions it has made to the field of therapy, to vast chunks of the personal development industry, NLP is now fast becoming the most rapid and potent model for behaviour in the world today. Dr Richard Bandlers unrelenting attitude towards learning and his deeply inquisitive nature has meant that NLP has continued to be developed since its conception, and has since applied its methodologies to industries and environments could not have possibly envisaged at its conception. NLP gives us a model for challenging restrictive beliefs and behaviours, while also providing us with tools to promote excellence wherever it is apparent.

If you have a behaviour or a belief about yourself that you think can't be changed... think again! You have the power right now to make the first step in your journey. All you have to do is make contact with one of the NLP Practitioners in your region, vetted and approved by the Just Be Well network for their expertise. If you really want to change for the better, then you are now simply moments away from the one decision that will change your life forever. Call or email one of us NOW!

Hypnotherapy And NLP In Australia

New Australian Hypnotherapy And NLP Website

Before Denis Niblett moved back from Sydney Australia to open our Newcastle clinic he was able to extend the network of practitioners through Australia, to include Mary Lee in Sydney, Adam Szmerling in Mebourne and Beverley de la Harpe Perth. Thanks Denis.

I have just lauched a site in Australia just for them - it is here Hypnotherapy And NLP In Australia

Choosing an NLP Practitioner

A common question I get asked by clients is "How do you choose a hypnotherapist or NLP practitioner?" As I have already said one of the many things that first impressed me about Just Be Well, is that it contained a virtual who's who of experts from across the planet. Many of the representatives are not only fully qualified in NLP, but actually train others as well and have well respected products in the marketplace. They have also trained with Richard Bandler the co creator of NLP and so have had IMO the very best up to date training on the planet!
Before choosing an NLP practitioner, check who they trained with and how much training they have had. The best practitioners will usually have busy clinics and of course will see literally hundreds of clients each year. Often clients can be amazed at the speed of this approach. In recent times I had a client who had OCD for 24 years, who was fully cured in just two one hour sessions.

Crossing Bridges

I share Nick's sentiments about the Just Be Well team which I joined whilst working in Sydney, Australia.

Having returned to the UK I now live and work in Newcastle upon Tyne and urge anyone wondering where to find help and assistance to consider hypnotherapy and NLP, and to look at the Just Be Well web site for more detailed information.

Perhaps I will see you in your dreams!

Hypnotherapy in Leeds

I joined the Just Be Well network because it has the very best NLP and Hypnotherapy practitioners I have known, so I knew the standard would be very high. I work across Leeds and Manchester and highly recommend people to Just Be Well for assistance!

Hypnotherapy And NLP Blog Launch

Hello and welcome to the JustBeWell.com hypnotherapy and NLP blog.

I am Steve Tromans and I started http://www.justbewell.com/ many years ago as my own personal website so that I could let people know who I am, what I do, and how I may be able to help them.

Since then the site has grown so that now there are a team of over twenty skilled professionals in the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia and the USA.

The hypnotherapists and NLP trainers on JustBeWell.com have been personally selected by me as people I personally know and trust, or have come highly recommended to me by people I personally know and trust.

Common Values

We all share the idea that personal change can be rapid and easy and we have much more affinity with Neuro-Linguistic Programming than with traditional clinical hypnotherapy, although many of us will utilise more traditional hypnosis with clients if we think that this will be the quickest and most effective way to help them to make the changes they desire.

Hypnotherapy And NLP To Train The Mind

So it is much more like training than therapy. We aren’t interested in where the ‘problem’ comes from as generally it doesn’t matter how ‘problems’ start, what matters is how to ‘stop’ them, and how to help someone to be more resourceful in the here and now.

A Sense Of Perspective

If someone has depression, or anxiety, or virtually any problem, them they tend to be caught on a loop of wishing they didn’t have the depression, anxiety or fear, or habit, or compulsion etc etc. It can be like watching a TV program that you simply can’t stand, but you find yourself watching it again and again anyway...
Delving into the source of these problems often simply reinforces them.

Outcome Orientated Hypnotherapy And NLP

When you begin to think of how you will be when you have stopped ‘probleming’, you begin to open your mind to new possibilities.

The difference between someone who has a fear of public speaking and someone who does not have this fear, for example, is the anticipation of it. If you are scared of public speaking and someone says you have to do a presentation tomorrow then the first thing you will do is imagine being scared whilst giving the presentation. If you are confident at public speaking and someone says the same thing then you will automatically imagine doing a confident presentation.
Both people will tend to get what they ‘expect’ to get.

So we train the person’s imagination to expect to be confident, and then, almost invariably, they are.

Hypnotherapy And NLP – A Flexible Approach

At the strategic level the above holds true for so many issues, expect to blush and you will, expect to be jealous and you will be, expect to take cocaine tonight and you are more likely to etc etc

However there are a huge range of techniques available to help in other areas such as addictions, OCD, nail biting, phobias and so forth, so we will tailor what we do to your individual needs.
