Bulimia nervosa is usually referred to just as bulimia and is a psychological eating disorder often related to the low self beliefs and a distorted view of the reality. Bulimia Nervosa was first recognized 1979 and today represents an issue which effects many people, typically of young age.
Although Bulimia affects both males and females, the latter are approximately 10 times more likely to engage in such behaviour.
Like Anorexia, Bulimia is caused by an overwhelming fear of getting fat and not looking as attractive as one may wish. The real problem is that the person engaged in this behaviour has a highly distorted view of his or her body and of what is attractive.
“Bulimic” people tend to jump from eating excessively (bingeing) and then make themselves sick, to using laxatives (purging), in order to maintain a specific chosen weight.
A traditional psychology approach may fail simply because of the fact that the individual suffering from Bulimia has the belief of not being too thin and of being in complete control. This distorted view of the reality is not an act that the individual is putting up, nor is it a way of convincing him or herself. The individual suffering from Bulimia is already convinced that these beliefs are facts and that other people simply do not see it.
Using Neuro Linguistic Programming we change that belief to one that more reflects the truth, remove the mind conflict which is generating the unhealthy behaviour and "re-program" the mind to actually desire the change as opposed to having to change.
We then use hypnosis to establish new behaviours and attitudes toward food, toward the body and establish a more realistic perception of the attractiveness of the body.
Depending on the individual circumstances, we are able to make a radical and permanent change in 3 sessions or less.
The combination of Hypnosis, NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and Time Line Therapy™ had proven to create fast a permanent changes in as little as 3 sessions..
