Today’s episode of Drop the Weight explores the potential of utilizing hypnotherapy in your practical toolkit of lifestyle and healing, with the help of Elizabeth’s dear friend and renowned hypnotherapist Ami Hubbard.   The show opens with a serious discussion about the subconscious mind as the deeper-dwelling blueprint for our experienced reality, and how hypnosis can empower us as shapers of that experience.   The second half of the show marks a first for Drop the Weight podcast, featuring an actual hypnosis meditation customized and performed by Ami specifically for the listeners of this podcast.   Listeners are encouraged to chime in on Elizabeth’s Instagram page (below) to share their experiences and thoughts about this transformative meditation.   ***   SHOW NOTES   [ 00:00 ] Introduction [ 01:15 ] Welcome, Ami!
