Send us a text

What role does our brain and programming have in our efforts to change our habits and patterns and how do we train our minds into consistent, effective action? Today's guest, Rita Black, is here to share how to stop the yo-yo dieting experiences. Although our topic of focus in this conversation is weight loss and weight management, it is relevant for anyone who is interested in mastering their mind and their behavior.

Rita Black is an author, speaker, and the director of Shift Hypnosis in Los Angeles. She is an expert in the psychology of weight management, the author of the bestselling book From Fat to Thin Thinking: Unlock Your Mind for Permanent Weight Loss. Before Rita was a hypnotherapist, she was a client, using hypnosis to stop a pack-and-a-half a day smoking habit and “release” 40 pounds. It is her passion to help you with your own transformation.

• [47:52] Rita explains what hypnosis and meditation does to put our mind in a relaxed state… giving our brains more to work with, than when we are in a conscious defensive state.
