These behaviors are internally motivated. Because his mother pacified his needs as a child with oral stimulus (such as food), Hank learned to seek out immediate gratification in the way of oral fixation. This led to nail biting, chain smoking, and excessive eating – because these fixations are more visible to outsiders but not to Hank, he finds other things to blame for bad relationships/interactions. This could reasonably lead to argumentative and aggressive behavior on Hank’s part. 3.
In this essay, I will assess Miss E’s issues surrounding her weight loss and will then go on to describe a treatment plan that would be appropriate for the client taking into account any ethical issues. Miss E has explained that she would like to try hypnotherapy for weight loss and she wants to lose 2 and a half stone in 3 months before going on holiday. She explains that she is 29, has come out of a failed relationship 6 months ago and despite feeling ready to meet someone new, she is scared because her previous partner of 6 years was very controlling. She explains that he almost seemed to want her to stay overweight. This was probably because her ex-partner wanted to remain in control within the relationship and was fearful of Miss E meeting someone else if she were to lose weight.
She has tried many diets in the past some more successful than others, however within a reasonably short period of time after each attempt to lose weight, she has re-gained the weight she has lost. This time she wants to lose two and a half stone as she is going on an all-girls holiday in three months’ time. In the treatment of Miss E, it will be vital to isolate the reasons for her overeating in order to help her through the process of hypnosis. Working in hypnosis, we must work with the subject’s particular issue, that is, the underlying reason or reasons for weight gain and the inability to lose it. This must not be done by depriving them as this will not serve to address the issue, but more the reprogramming of the subconscious into eating properly and taking pride in

Chronic stress, such as poverty, is a physiologic reaction to both physical and psychological stressors. When the body is unable to maintain homeostasis in the face of this stress, it can produce results such as insulin resistance, obesity, and even cardiovascular disease. This just goes to show that the problems of the mind have an effect on the body. These stresses cannot be overlooked when examining the factors that affect childbirth, as the health of the baby is contingent upon the health of the mother. Therefore, wealthier and more educated mothers are more likely to undergo less pre-pregnancy stress because they have more control over their environments and experiences.
After consulting with this modeling scout, she was advised that she must lose 10-inches from her hips. Filled with determination to succeed, Renn embarked on a weight loss regime that nearly cost her life. After reading diet books after diet books, cutting out pictures from magazines, and exercising to a workout video multiple times a night, Crystal still wasn’t happy. Having nearly starving herself and exercising six hours a day, after three months, Crystal was starting to get the body she had imagined. Throughout the next three years, Crystal dropped nearly 90 pounds and despite her dwindling health, was often praised by her agency for her waif-like frame.
The manner in which we were told to book our first patients hardly 3 weeks into the academic year left me in such apprehension that I needed some reassurance from some of the senior students that they were once where I was and had completed the ‘çhallenge’ successfully. My supervisor, as if sensing my fears explained to my patient that the treatment would take a considerable length of time as she was the first ever patient I would be attending to as a dental student. My patient’s main complaint was that the dentures that she had been wearing since 1994 were so ’blunt’ that she could hardly chew with them anymore, the teeth were indeed worn out occlusally and incisally. All she wanted from her new dentures was something to chew with and teeth of a lighter shade, which made my job less demanding. My patient, Ms Carew was a 72 year old pensioner who lived with her daughter.
There is also some evidence suggesting children’s toys like Barbie and Bratz may lead to children having an unrealistic image of an ideal body shape, and therefore lead to abnormal eating behaviours. AO2 - Evidence * Research linking parents to eating behaviour has shown that there is a strong relationship between parents and children in terms of snack intake, perception of body dissatisfaction and attitude towards food (Brown & Ogden, 2004). * Further research has shown the biggest indicator of a daughters eating behaviour was the dietary restraint of the mother. This would explain why sometimes an entire family is obese, as can be seen on some reality TV shows. However it is not always clear in these cases if it is nature or nurture causing the behaviour.
Many women feel insecure, self conscious, and unappreciated because they don’t look like the woman portrayed in the media. Secondly, this image being portrayed by media can resort to unhealthy treatments to lose weight. Woman have tried to stop eating or throwing up their food to stop them from gaining weight, which has only led them to becoming ill. Other women use diet pills and meal supplements to lose weight, however, when they stop taking them, a majority of the time they go back to their previous life style and gain a majority of that weight back. A lot of women exercise to lose weight, but if they have really low self-esteem, they try to push themselves, leaving themselves exhausted and dehydrated; still seeing no results. Women try unhealthy diets, excessive exercising and sometimes anorexia to look a certain way, but in the end, they just end up unhealthy and unsatisfied.
For the government, it might appear to be a necessity and they may feel they are compensating the affected people well by remuneration. However, the affected people know that they are being uprooted from their homeland. Although temporarily better off, they have lost the place they called home once. We can see this Theory being manifested in lot of circumstances, if only we observe and try to understand. Right from a student getting bad grades as a result of a submission they couldn’t complete due to being unwell, to the difficult situations faced by a single mother in this society.
