Creative Visualisation

If you have never the heard term before it might be something worth trying as an aid to weight loss that doesn't mean to say that it is some sort of magic bullet but merely something you can try after all as the saying goes nothing ventured nothing gained.

The best way to do this is when you're on your own in a quiet place with no distractions at all call it creative visualisation with a bit of meditation thrown in, so the thing to do is think of the way that you would like to be and look in the future say have a timeline of about six months to a year and then imagine yourself in six months and then again in twelve months, see yourself in certain positions or places say for instance walking through a park with a T-shirt on and pair of shorts, it's a nice warm day and you're walking along having lost quite a bit of weight and feeling very confident.

Or you could imagine yourself being at the swimming baths this would be quite a good technique to use because you're more likely to feel more vulnerable with less on, or to go one stage further you can imagine yourself being on the beach surrounded by people feeling confident due to the fact of how much weight you've lost.

This is something well worth trying because you have nothing to lose, quite a few months ago now I read a book called Psycho cybernetics by someone called Maxwell Maltz, they did quite a interesting experiment in that book, they took two basketball teams and one team did ordinary practice as usual and the other team just used visualisation techniques and imagined, themselves doing practice instead of actually physically doing it, when the two teams came to play game of basketball, the visualisation team were as good as the team who practised in reality.
