Through personal anecdotes and client success stories, Leslie demonstrates how confronting and transcending internal barriers can unlock wisdom, happiness, and lasting change, offering a path to permanent weight loss and life satisfaction.

    "Finding out what I want, finding the coach who can help me get what I want. Taking action and booking a call, feeling whether I feel like it's right, asking whatever questions I need to ask to know that it's right for me. And then paying the money and doing the work. It's that simple. It's that simple to get everything you want in your life." - Leslie Thornton

    Ep 253 Inside Look of HPWLs Fastrack to Freedom Group Coaching Call

    Navigating the complexities of diet mentality versus food freedom is not merely about what we eat, but how we think and feel about food. The restrictive nature of traditional dieting often pushes one in a cycle of guilt and perfectionism, overshadowing the potential for true emotional and mental freedom. On the other hand, embracing food freedom involves redefining our relationship with food, fostering a mindset of self-acceptance, and understanding our body's genuine needs. Through the application of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and other therapeutic techniques, individuals can transcend ingrained diet mentalities, allowing for personal growth and a healthier, more holistic approach to well-being. Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss Fast Track to Freedom encapsulates this belief.

    The journey towards inner peace and emotional freedom in relation to food has far-reaching impacts beyond mere weight loss. It influences every aspect of life, from professional achievements to personal relationships and overall mental health. By adopting a growth mindset and shedding black-and-white thinking, individuals can experience a profound transformation. Programs focusing on these areas provide invaluable support, offering tools to conquer limiting beliefs and cultivate a vibrant, self-expressed life. Taking decisive action towards this inner work not only enhances one's well-being but also positively affects those around you, creating a ripple effect of health and lasting happiness.

    "You can't take your personal life out of your food freedom because oftentimes the reason that we snap back into diet mentality over and over again and have bad body image issues and all the mental obsession is because it's emotional and it's usually actually triggered by other emotional things going on in the background that we just may not be fully present to." - Leslie Thornton

    What you will learn from this episode:

    00:01 - Sharing a sense of the culture and dynamics within the "Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss, Fast Track to Freedom" client group call

    04:17 - Highlighting the shared experiences among group members, such as dealing with special needs children, grief, and personal challenges, which foster a sense of community and mutual support

    12:36 - How in the Hypnosis program participants are encouraged to fully experience and process their emotions rather than suppress them

    15:32 - Helping clients differentiate between their thoughts and reality by understanding that perceptions can be subjective and not necessarily accurate

    20:02 - Distinguishing between diet mentality thoughts versus food freedom thoughts

    23:40 - How overcoming diet mentality requires facing fears and discomfort to achieve true food freedom and personal growth 

    28:53 - Sharing how diet mentality makes it difficult to adopt a growth mindset

    34:52 - One more spot left for an upcoming NLP training in September

    35:51 - How achieving mastery over one's relationship with food, body, and weight can lead to profound personal transformations in all areas of life

    41:34 - The need to take action now to improve your inner health and consequently enhance your outer health and overall life quality

    Ep 252 Understanding and Addressing your Relationship with Food through Metaphors

    Despite the countless diets and weight loss plans, the mental and emotional turmoil associated with food and body image remains unresolved for many. The real issue lies not in the food itself but in the deeper, often hidden emotional and psychological wounds that drive unhealthy eating behaviors. These underlying issues are like the submerged part of an iceberg—vast and largely unseen, yet crucial to understand and heal. Ignoring these deeper problems perpetuates a cycle of temporary fixes and long-term dissatisfaction.

    In this episode, we dive into Anita Johnston's "Eating in the Light of the Moon," a book that uses powerful metaphors to shed light on the complex relationship between food and emotions. By exploring stories like 'the log in the river', 'the red herring', 'the woman in the moon', 'the peasant quest', 'the princess and the pea', and 'the iceberg', we reveal how diet mentality distracts from true healing. Through these metaphors, we learn the importance of connecting with our inner wisdom and addressing the real issues beneath the surface.

By listening to this episode, you'll gain valuable insights and practical tools to start your journey toward a healthier, more fulfilling relationship with food and yourself.

    06:53 - Advocating for intuitive eating as a key component of healing

    Ep 250 Why don't I stay accountable to myself?

    Have you ever found yourself caught in a cycle of on and off dieting, perpetually striving for weight loss only to be met with frustration and disappointment? This struggle, familiar to many, often stems from deeper emotional issues that go unaddressed. The constant battle with food, body image, and weight can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, and self-hatred, trapping individuals in an endless loop of fleeting diets and temporary fixes. 

    The real problem lies not in the diets themselves, but in the underlying emotional turmoil that drives these behaviors. To break free from this cycle, it's essential to shift focus from external goals to inner healing and self-awareness. By understanding and aligning with our true desires and addressing the root emotional causes, we can achieve lasting peace and fulfillment in our relationship with food and our bodies. 

    Hypnosis and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) offer powerful tools to help individuals tap into their inner truth, manage their emotional states, and ultimately transform their approach to health and well-being.

    "You will always be a yo-yo dieter if you do not actually pay attention and heal stuff. That anger, self-hatred, sadness, fear, hurt, guilt, shame, that's just hanging around there. That's the emotion that's causing you to eat. That's the emotion that causes you to binge eat. So it's like tackling that and you're creating spaciousness in your body." - Leslie Thornton

    What you will learn from this episode:

    00:01 - Addressing the common struggle of staying accountable to oneself despite being a person of high integrity who holds others to their word

    02:12 - Integrity versus perfectionism and how they impact self-accountability with regard to dieting and weight loss

    09:10 - The importance of emotional mastery and introspection rather than rigid perfectionism

    16:23 - Seeking support and exploring programs that focus on holistic, sustainable transformation rather than temporary, restrictive measures

    22:22 - Achieving lasting change in weight and health requires aligning actions with one's true desires

    25:12 - Focusing on what genuinely brings you peace and happiness instead of being driven by ego or societal expectations

    29:42 - Understand and accept your current state rather than constantly shifting between different diets and approaches

    34:22 - Recognizing and addressing underlying emotional issues rather than just focusing on external goals or diets

    Ep 249 Personal Trainers and Nutritionists VS Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss

    Are you tired of the short-term results from personal trainers and nutritionists? Do you find yourself sliding back into old habits despite rigorous workout routines and carefully planned diets? The problem isn't with your effort or commitment; it's that traditional approaches often focus solely on external changes without addressing the internal struggles that drive your behaviors.

    Imagine spending hours at the gym and meticulously counting calories, only to be derailed by emotional triggers that lead to overeating or unhealthy food choices. It's frustrating and disheartening, leaving you feeling like a failure, stuck in a cycle that seems impossible to break. These external solutions, while beneficial, don't equip you with the tools to manage the emotional and psychological aspects of your relationship with food.

    This is where Hypnosis and emotional mastery come in as game-changers. Unlike traditional methods, the Hypnosis program dives deep into the root causes of your eating habits. By addressing emotional triggers and developing a strong, resilient mindset, you'll achieve lasting freedom from food-related stress and guilt. This holistic approach not only transforms your eating behaviors but also enhances your overall emotional well-being, leading to sustainable, life-long results.

    Today, we'll be exploring the differences between Hypnosis for permanent weight loss and more conventional approaches like hiring a personal trainer or nutritionist. Inspired by insights shared by a client who recently completed her eight-week Hypnosis program, we'll uncover why Hypnosis isn't just about shedding pounds but also about transforming your relationship with food, body, and self. Let's explore a new path to lasting change and emotional mastery.

    "If you're someone who feels guilty, shameful, upset, fearful around any topic, food, body and weight, going to the doctor and stepping on the scale-- any of that. If any of that emotionally upsets you, then using a nutritionist or a personal trainer will help you get the results short term. It will not get you to live a life in full color." - Leslie Thornton

    What you'll learn from this episode:

    01:01 -  highlighting a client experience on the  differences between hiring a fitness coach, personal trainer, nutritionist, and using hypnosis for weight loss

    04:13 - Hypnosis' weight loss approach on internal changes and self-empowerment versus rigid diet and exercise regimen

    08:13 - A client testimonial of emotional resilience of making healthier choices without guilt or shame.

    Ep 246 How to TRULY Attract Love By Your Permanent Weight Loss Journey

    The quest for love often intersects with the pursuit of physical perfection. Many of us, driven by societal pressures, find ourselves obsessively focused on weight loss as a means to attract the ideal partner. This fixation, however, can lead to a cycle of anxiety and disconnection from one's authentic self, ultimately hindering the very goal we seek to achieve. Despite rigorous dieting and weight loss efforts, the desired deep, meaningful relationships often remain elusive, leading to frustration and self-doubt.

    This struggle is magnified by the belief that physical appearance is the sole determinant of attractiveness and compatibility. People frequently ignore the deeper, more intrinsic factors that foster genuine connections. The constant worry about weight and diet not only disrupts one's emotional well-being but also diminishes the ability to be present and authentically engaged in relationships. This preoccupation hinders energy, intuition, and emotional expression—key elements that contribute to a vibrant and attractive persona.

    However, the solution lies not in relentless dieting, but in undertaking a profound journey of self-discovery and inner healing. By shifting the focus from external validation to internal alignment, individuals can unlock their true selves and, in turn, attract partners who appreciate them for who they genuinely are. Embracing this holistic approach to weight loss and self-acceptance paves the way for authentic relationships.

    In this episode, Leslie delves into this transformative process of healing by way of Hypnosis. Through Leslie's personal anecdotes and practical advice she highlights how embracing one's authentic self, including their natural body shape and eating habits, can lead to both permanent weight loss and the attraction of a truly compatible, loving partner. This journey, though challenging, ultimately empowers individuals to cultivate deeper connections and live fulfilling lives, free from the constraints of societal expectations.

    "If you master understanding your triggers and what upsets you and what creates emotion, you're going to master your life. Like you're going to master relationships because relationships have lots of emotions involved." - Leslie Thornton

    What you will learn from this episode:

    00:01 - The importance of acknowledging and understanding one's true desires when losing weight

    06:36 - Addressing the psychological aspects of dieting and emotional eating

    09:35 - Exploring the relationship between weight loss, self-worth, and attracting a healthy, authentic partner
