Making resolutions for the New Year is a tradition followed by many every year.
New Year’s Resolutions often get shelved a few months into the year, and this might be because we get demotivated as we don’t get instant results or prioritise other tasks. However, the thought that we gave up on our resolutions keeps playing at the back of our minds and can even lead to negative emotions and feelings of discouragement.
At CityHypno, I work with my clients to reprogramme their thinking process and the way they approach things. This helps them develop a more positive outlook, which keeps them motivated towards their goals.
Using hypnosis for mental health and healing, I can help you apply more positivity in your life and the way you approach goals to keep you motivated towards achieving your New Year resolutions.
Common New Year’s Resolutions
Resolutions can be something small, like trying to wake up earlier every morning, or something life-altering like moving to a new country. In the last few years, health and financial resolutions have dominated people’s minds as a result of the pandemic and increased information about food and fitness.
However, let’s look at some other New Year’s resolutions that my patients have had over the years:
- Lose weight
- Quit smoking
- Reduce or give up drinking
- Pay off debt and start saving for the future
- Adopt healthier eating habits
- Improve confidence personally and professionally
- Buy a new home or car
- Spend more time with friends or family
- Have healthier sleeping habits
- Travel more
Why Do New Year’s Resolutions Fail?
While you may be beating yourself up for giving up on your goals, remember that you aren’t alone. Recent studies have shown that 80% of New Year’s resolutions are broken by February and that only 8% follow through with their goals till the end of the year.
You may often wonder – why New Year’s resolutions fail despite our best intentions. ?
It is a long-term process that requires effort, clarity, attention and time.
Many of our resolutions stem from a need to improve ourselves in some way or the other, with expectations that can be unrealistic or irrelevant. While some people want to lose weight to reinvent themselves, some may want to quit addictions like smoking.
However, by setting unrealistic expectations and timelines, we can put unnecessary pressure on ourselves to achieve our goals. This causes us to fail to complete them.
Here’s where hypnotherapy comes in.
By using hypnotherapy for mental health, I can work with your conscious and subconscious mind to help you achieve more clarity and realism with your resolutions.
Through this process, I essentially use hypnosis for mental health to make you more aware and in control of your thoughts. I can help you master your subconscious.
How Does Hypnotherapy Help With New Year Resolutions?
Hypnotherapy suggests positive approaches that can have a meaningful and lasting impact on your thought process. It can change your pessimistic approaches into optimistic ones and make you more goal-oriented.
However, you need to understand that it’s not an overnight process.
Much like other things in life, it requires you to put in the time and effort to see good results. When I work with my clients, I always emphasise how important consistency is to see actual progress in whatever you do.
By making an effort for yourself, instead of focusing on social pressures, you’ll be able to see long-term changes that can be beneficial in the way you live life.
How Does Hypnosis Work?
If you’re new to hypnotherapy and want to know more about how hypnosis works, this blog can help you.
Hypnosis puts you in a relaxed, trance-like state, which sidelines all the worries and other negative thoughts in your mind. It activates your subconscious mind.
When in this relaxed state, through visualisation techniques and suggestive cues positive thoughts are introduced into your subconscious. I’ll understand the underlying trauma, emotions and triggers that make it challenging for you to follow through with your New Year’s resolutions.
Hypnotherapy for mental health issues such as stress, anxiety or low confidence can effectively make you feel better and self-assured, allowing you to approach your goals in a positive way.
By undergoing hypnotherapy, you can change rigid old thinking patterns into more positive and understanding thoughts. This can, in turn, redirect your mind to achieve your goals while staying motivated throughout your journey.
The newer suggested mental techniques can take care of any self-sabotaging tendencies, negative thought patterns, and blocks from the past. It can provide you with a more supportive way to think and approach things in the future.
By working with me, I assure you of the utmost care and consideration through my bespoke hypnotherapy services. I will use hypnosis for healing the body and mind to help you reach your New Year resolutions.
