Courtney Love chose to use hypnosis after she ended her addiction to drugs.
There is research to show the effects of hypnosis for weight loss. Very favorable.
However, there is also concern about how much weight she is losing.
Courtney Love hypnosis for weight loss
It is a bony picture that shows the obsessive nature of addiction. Even if she is using hypnosis to lose weight as millions of people have, it is possible the nature of addiction is causing her to use it to support her new addiction which is for weight loss. She is seeing a popular hypnotist (not Wendi Friesen) to get this skinny.
The article says -
Courtney Love has credited hypnosis as the reason for her dramatic weight loss.
The former Hole singer has been seeing the TV weight-loss guru since piling on the pounds after quitting drugs.
She told friends: ” I lost weight last year the old-fashioned way by dieting and living off protein shakes. But it was hard to stay disciplined.
“He’s brilliant and is totally responsible for me staying so skinny. Whenever I start to feel my resolve weaken, I go for another hypnosis session.”
However, friends of the star – who is the widow of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain – are worried she is now dangerously thin.
One told Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper: “She is skeletal now. Her weight would always yo-yo depending on whether she was doing drugs or not but then she cleaned up her act in rehab and replaced drugs with food.
“But Courtney is an addict and now she is addicted to losing weight. She looks terrible. She needs to put on a stone at least.
“Ever since she’s been seeing Paul McKenna for hypnosis sessions, she’s lost more weight. It doesn’t look good but she thinks he’s a genius.”

My comments-
Hypnosis for weight loss can be a healthy way to lose weight. But there is also has to be emotional work that supports a balanced and healthy state of mind. I believe there is much more to hypnosis for dieting than just feeling full or stopping hunger. Hypnosis is most valuable when it combines the emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of finding your HEALTHY body. And that healthy weight is probably not a size 2, 4 or 6.
