It has become commonplace for hypnotherapists to state that Lilly Allen used hypnotherapy for weight loss. Hypnotherapy, in the hands of a skilled hypnotherapist, can help identify the causes of weight gain and support the client through the process of adopting a healthier attitude towards food, exercise and weight. I’ve used hypnotherapy in Vancouver and other locations for this purpose. If you’d like to lose weight then you could achieve it too. Anything Lily Allen can do, you can do too.

Lily Allen’s use of hypnosis, however, isn’t as much of a marketing success story as many hypnotherapists imagine. People often expect cash-rich celebrities to adopt esoteric and bizarre “solutions” to their issues. How many actors and celebrities do you know who have turned to minor religious cults, for example?

Well, for what it’s worth, below is a list of famous people who have turned to hypnosis and hypnotherapy for help. The names may surprise you but they pay testament to the fact that hypnotherapy can be of use to us all. It isn’t strange or weird or only for the kooky among us.
Did you know, for example, that Winston Churchill used hypnosis? He used post-hypnotic suggestion to defeat feelings of tiredness during WW2. Hypnosis allowed him to remain awake throughout the night, in times of great stress, focuactors use hypnotherapy to improve their performance. You could benefit too!sing on his work rather than on his exhaustion.
Kevin McBride, a famous Irish heavyweight boxer, used hypnosis to focus his mind before a fight.
Tiger Woods used hypnosis to improve his golf. If only he’d also turned to hypnotherapy  for other issues; perhaps his golf wouldn’t have suffered so much of late. Another famous golfer, Jack Nicklaus, has also used hypnosis to focus his mind before a big competition.

In 1956 the Russian Olympic team took eleven hypnotherapists with them. We all know how formidable the Russians were as a sporting nation.
