The Thin Book: Hypnotherapy Trance Scripts for Weight Management
Author: Hal Brickman
This collection of discrete hypnotherapy scripts is designed to aid clinicians in helping their clients deal with the complex and often lifelong issues of weight management. Accompanied by an audiotape featuring selected trance scripts, the book arms clinicians with a truly creative approach for helping clients negotiate the reality and the fantasy of food -- and develop a sense of empowerment out of a depleted sense of self-esteem.
The metaphors offered here are drawn from the author's 20 years of experience in working with weight management. Brickman has discovered the essential truth of gathering critical insights from his clients in order to create an intervention stance that is flexible, resilient, and receptive. The metaphors have been tried and tested and refined over many sessions and with an array of clients.
Whether used verbatim, or to inspire the unique voice and attributes of the therapist, the trance scripts featured in The Thin Book and on the accompanying audiocassette add a new and powerful dimension to weight management.
Selected Contents: Saying "No" to Important Others; Food for Self-Definition; Lacking Resolve: When Eating Away from Home; Being Overweight to Punish Oneself; Compulsive Eating as a Defense Against Feelings; Using Food as a False Symbol of Family Unification; Being Overweight as an Expression of Passivity/Hostility
