In the last century, the famous psychologist from Germany, I. Schultz, worked on the method of rapid recovery of forces, as a result of which the technique of autogenic training - or auto-training was developed. Despite the fact that previously this technique was used exclusively as a way to quickly return the lost forces, now its range of effects has significantly expanded. The method of auto-training is used for weight loss, normalization of blood pressure, perception of any positive attitude or belief.
Autotraining for weight loss: is it effective?
Autotraining is a method of psychological adjustment for weight loss. If you have tried many times to lose weight, but every time you break, perhaps this is exactly what you need. You can not lose weight until you make a decision that you can not leave everything as it is. Only after that, your will to lose weight can overcome the temptations to eat as usual and continue to live with excess weight.
However, in itself, self-training will not change anything if after a session you continue to eat French fries, ice cream and mouth-watering cakes. It's just a psychological attitude, and without changing the power system you will not change anything.
Methods of auto-training
To date, only three methods of auto-training are widely known and are used, which are interrelated and have a strict sequence. The first is muscle relaxation, then - auto-suggestion and after that - self-education.
In this case, the technique of auto-training can have a low or high level. If it is a question of the first of them, then the person should practice special auto-training exercises for relaxation and later - for self-hypnosis. If a person practices a second, higher level, then he needs to enter a special state - a state of trance, which will alternately achieve all the goals.
Autotraining for weight loss, as a rule, does not require intervention in the deeper layers of the subconscious, so in this case, it is quite possible to use auto-training at the first level, through exercises. They can be carried out even at home - it's simple and safe. If you are interested in the highest level, then the course of auto-training will help you conduct a specialist: it is conducted under special conditions under medical supervision, and daredevils who try to practice it with friends without the necessary knowledge and experience can cause themselves serious harm, outcome.
