My client did not know she was looking for love. Michelle came to me to lose 20 pounds. She was in her late sixties, divorced with adult children. As we talked, she said she would like to be in a relationship, but felt unattractive carrying the extra weight. After working together, she lost the 20 pounds and had a different outlook on life. She was happy with herself, maybe even loved herself, and was ready to look for a relationship. We crafted the affirmation, “I am open to a positive, healthy, loving relationship.” Guess what? In a few weeks, she found her new someone and is now in a happy, healthy relationship.

Embarking on the journey to find new love is a transformative and exciting chapter in life. However, before seeking external connections, it's essential to turn the focus inward. In this article, we explore the profound connection between readiness, self-love, and attracting new love relationships. Discover the power of self-care practices, delve into the 5-stage theory of change, and understand how hypnotherapy serves as a guiding light on this extraordinary journey.

The 5-Stage Theory of Change: Before any significant life change, individuals often undergo a process that psychologist Prochaska termed the 5-stage theory of change. The stages are pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance. The readiness to act stage, marked by a genuine intention to make a change, is the crucial precursor to finding new love.

Self-love is the cornerstone of a healthy and fulfilling life. It involves recognizing and appreciating one's worth, acknowledging personal needs, and treating oneself with kindness and compassion. In the context of finding new love, self-love becomes a magnetic force that enhances attractiveness and sets the stage for meaningful connections.

Examples of Self-Care Activities: Self-love is manifested through intentional self-care practices. These activities nourish the mind, body, and soul, fostering a sense of well-being and contentment. Examples include:

1. Mindful Practices: Meditation, deep breathing exercises, and mindfulness practices promote mental clarity and emotional balance.

2. Physical Well-Being: Regular exercise, nutritious eating habits, and sufficient sleep contribute to overall physical health and vitality.

3. Creative Expression: Engaging in activities that spark creativity and self-expression, such as art, writing, or music, fosters a sense of fulfillment.

4. Setting Boundaries: Learning to say no when necessary and setting healthy boundaries preserves energy and promotes emotional resilience.

Positive self-care practices reinforce self-love in a continuous loop. As individuals prioritize their well-being, they cultivate a positive self-image and a deep sense of fulfillment. This, in turn, enhances attractiveness, creating a magnetic pull for potential new love relationships.

Hypnotherapy's Role in the Journey to New Love:

1. Building Readiness: Hypnotherapy assists individuals in navigating the readiness stage by addressing any subconscious barriers or fears that may hinder the pursuit of new love.

2. Enhancing Self-Love: Through positive affirmations and guided imagery, hypnotherapy reinforces self-love, fostering a deep and lasting sense of worthiness.

3. Transformative Mindset: Hypnotherapy helps individuals cultivate a mindset aligned with positive change, enabling them to approach the journey to new love with confidence and optimism.

4. Stress Reduction and Emotional Resilience: Techniques such as stress reduction and emotional resilience building equip individuals with the tools to navigate the inevitable challenges of seeking new love.

5. Visualization for Attraction: Hypnotherapy incorporates visualization techniques to help individuals visualize and manifest the qualities they seek in a new love relationship, creating a powerful magnetism.

Once you find and are enjoying your new someone, you might begin to think about the longer term. For an excellent article exploring the importance of compatibility for long term relationships, please see the following:

I know, I know, there are lots of celebrations this month – Black History Month, American Heart Month, Cancer Prevention Month and who can forget Great American Pies Month. All of these are important things to recognize and focus on. For me, though, February will always be the month of love. This is partly because of Valentine’s Day and Heart Month but also because my parents and my son and my daughter-in-love all got married this month.

So let’s talk about love. How do you get over it and how do you get it are the two most often asked questions about love in my practice. A few years ago, I had 3 clients at the same time trying to get over lost loves. I’m happy to say they have all moved on and hopefully found love again--this time forever. One client was happily married but couldn’t stop going by the ex’s house every day. Through affirmations and hypnotherapy, that practice was stopped.

How do I help my clients find love? By setting an intention and creating a set of affirmations that will get them to their goal. I suggest that they think about what it is they are looking for in a partner and actually make a list of their wants. If a person really wants specific qualities or attributes then listing them can be helpful. What if someone comes along and doesn’t have the desired attributes, but they fall in love? Time to change the list! A list can be a great starting point as long as you are willing to be flexible.

It’s also important to remember that “If you are good on your own, you really can have a beautiful relationship.” (From Jennifer Lopez in “It’s A Beautiful Love Story” in February 14th People Magazine. She also says she gets her glow by “affirmations, eating right, exercise and “being a good person.”

Remember, what you think about comes to be, so be intentional in your thoughts. Whether you are looking for love or looking to get over love, focus on what you really want.
