Breaking a Midnight Snacking Habit

HYPNOTHERAPY CASE STUDY #9:

Breaking a Midnight Snacking Habit

BY JOAN KRUEGER, CERTIFIED HYPNOTHERAPIST

I recently worked with a woman who called and said she was having an issue with eating in the middle of the night. She hadn’t done it before 2020, but around that time she had some major stress in her personal life and was also experiencing all the stress and anxiety from the Covid pandemic. She was taking Ambien for sleep and was completely unconscious of getting up, going into the kitchen and eating. In addition, she was eating all kinds of junk foods that she never would have allowed herself to eat during the day, like ice cream bars and Oreo cookies. Needless to say, it had caused her to gain weight which was creating anxiety for her as well. During her session with me she responded well to the all the suggestions I gave her to prove that her subconscious thoughts could control her behavior. Next, I gave her suggestions specifically about her subconscious mind keeping her from eating at night and her body not needing any of those junk foods. Following the session, she called back and said that she had noticed some good changes, but she wanted to do a follow up session. When she came back to my office, she said that there were a few nights that she had not gotten up and eaten, but on the nights when she did, it was only healthy foods. She would eat a banana or drink a glass of milk. Knowing that something had benefited her, she decided to do a follow up session for even greater change. When a person is experiencing something like this and they feel out of control, any sign that their subconscious mind can create a positive change for them gives them hope. Usually, once a person‘s subconscious mind shows them that change can happen, more change is possible. If you’re struggling with anything and feel out of control, hypnosis might be your answer. Give me a call and I’ll be happy to tell you how hypnosis might be helpful for you.
