“…After the first (hypnotherapy) session… I realized how much I needed it. I realized that for me it wasn't about just losing weight, it was about acquiring healthier habits. I've never been keen on physical activity, but I know how important it is for our health and well-being, and after my sessions I can say that I am a healthier person with healthy habits. It's a change from the inside out, it's a change in behavior, and it was painless and very satisfying.”

The Purpose Behind HEXCEL:

Help You To Lead a Healthier Lifestyle with Ease and Achieve Weight Loss Naturally: By fostering a positive mindset, embracing self-love, and mastering mindful eating and consistent exercise, you effortlessly integrate these changes into your life.

Hypnotherapy serves as a powerful tool in this journey, allowing you to shift your focus from mere weight loss to embracing a fulfilling life. As a natural outcome, you achieve your weight loss goals while living well.

Who This Is For

If you're eager to take charge of your life, achieve holistic well-being, and embark on a transformative journey towards weight loss, the HEXCEL programme warmly welcomes you. This programme is designed with individuals in mind who:

  • You're open to exploring innovative methods to improve your health and achieve weight loss, acknowledging that self-esteem is essential for navigating your journey.

  • You recognize that real change begins with taking ownership of your actions and choices, and you're open to embracing accountability for your progress.

  • You're enthusiastic about taking decisive steps and implementing positive changes in your lifestyle to achieve your goals.

  • You appreciate the power of community and are open to sharing your experiences, challenges, and victories with others in a supportive and nurturing environment.

  • You believe in the importance of active listening, empathy, and fostering a non-judgmental space where everyone's journey is respected and valued.

If this sounds like you, then I encourage you to

Who This Is NOT For

While the HEXCEL program offers a warm and supportive environment, it may not be the best fit for individuals who:

  • If you're currently feeling resistant to making changes in your life, this program may not align with your current needs and preferences.

  • If you're seeking quick fixes or passive solutions without a willingness to invest time and effort into your personal growth journey, this program may not meet your expectations.

  • If you're not open to exploring new perspectives, challenging your beliefs, or engaging in meaningful discussions with others, you may find the program's emphasis on growth and self-discovery less appealing.

  • If you find it challenging to open up, share your vulnerabilities, or connect with others in a supportive community setting, you may not fully benefit from the collaborative nature of the program (although I strongly suggest that you take the plunge outside of your comfort zone).*

  • If you have been diagnosed with a psychiatric condition such as psychosis, certain types of personality disorders (e.g., bipolar disorder), or if you regularly take mood stabilizers (e.g., Lithium), please be aware that hypnosis may exacerbate your symptoms and is therefore not recommended.

In essence, while the HEXCEL programme strives to create an inclusive and supportive space for personal transformation, it may not be the ideal fit for everyone. We encourage you to reflect on your own readiness for change and personal growth before deciding if HEXCEL is right for you.

(* If you ever feel hesitant to open up and share your vulnerabilities, or if connecting with others in a supportive community feels daunting, rest assured you're not alone. It's completely natural to find such steps challenging, but I want to encourage you to consider taking that brave leap, even if it feels outside your comfort zone. Embracing vulnerability can lead to incredible growth and connection within our programme. We're here to support you every step of the way as you embark on this journey of self-discovery and community.)

Delyana Pavlova - Milton Keynes

“I had a 6 session therapy with accent on weight loss, although the approach is holistic and so Dr Chaves focused on establishing healthy habits, improving lifestyle and changing behaviour. Through hypnotherapy the reasons for my unhelpful attitudes were identified and then addressed through parts therapy. I am pleased with the results I have with my time management, approach to food and portion control. After most sessions I received personalised audio recordings which I keep listening to and help me to stay on track with my goals.
I highly recommend hypnotherapy with Dr. Chaves, his attitude throughout was very professional, warm and friendly. He offers a great service and it is worth the price!”

Ok, so…
How Exactly Does This Health EXCEL Programme Work?

Here’s All You Need to Know:

Health EXCEL is an eight-week online group programme designed around a 6-step system integrating scientifically-backed principles from Chinese and Western medicine (Chi energy, neurology, neuroscience, human body physiology and nutrition), Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), and Hypnotherapy. It is tailored to assist up to 8 clients in achieving their weight loss objectives effectively.

Each session lasts 1.5 hours and is carefully crafted to guide you through the transformative journey of the HEXCEL system.

THE HEXCEL STEP-BY-STEP SYSTEM:

  • Session 1

    Explore your eating habits and negative self-talk to lay the foundation for transformation, learn weight loss hacks, and the science behind it (nutrition and exercise) and set achievable goals. Heightened awareness of one's current behaviors and thought patterns is the first step towards meaningful change. By delving into the underlying reasons behind unhealthy habits and negative self-talk, participants gain valuable insights into potential barriers to success. Understanding the scientific principles of nutrition and exercise equips individuals with evidence-based strategies to optimize their health and well-being. Setting achievable goals during this session provides a clear roadmap for progress, empowering participants to take proactive steps towards their desired outcomes.

  • Sessions 2 and 3

    Cultivate healthier relationships with food and exercise to nourish your body and soul. Establishing positive connections with food and exercise is essential for fostering a sustainable and enjoyable approach to weight loss. These sessions provide opportunities for participants to explore their attitudes and beliefs surrounding food and physical activity, promoting a shift towards mindful and intuitive practices. By cultivating a deeper appreciation for nourishing foods and joyful movement, individuals develop a renewed sense of empowerment and vitality on their journey towards wellness.

  • Sessions 4 and 5

    Dive deep into self-love, unlocking the power of self-compassion and acceptance. Exploring the concept of self-love is a transformative process that allows participants to embrace their inherent worth and value. These sessions encourage individuals to cultivate a compassionate and non-judgmental attitude towards themselves, fostering greater resilience and self-esteem. By practicing self-care and acceptance, participants create a solid foundation for sustainable growth and personal development.

  • Session 6

    Learn sustainable habits and rituals that support your weight loss journey and overall well-being. Cultivating healthy habits is key to long-term success in weight loss and maintenance. During this session, participants learn practical strategies for incorporating positive behaviors into their daily routines, such as meal planning, stress management, and mindful eating practices. By focusing on sustainable changes that align with their values and goals, individuals build a strong foundation for lasting transformation.

  • Session 7

    Visualize the benefits and possibilities that await you on your path to transformation. Envisioning the rewards of achieving weight loss goals serves as powerful motivation for continued progress. In this session, participants are encouraged to visualize their desired outcomes, tapping into their deepest aspirations and dreams. By connecting with their intrinsic motivations and envisioning a brighter future, individuals cultivate a sense of purpose and determination to overcome obstacles and stay committed to their journey.

  • Session 8

    Embrace lifelong maintenance and resilience as you embark on a new chapter of your journey and get used to your new identity. Embracing the concept of lifelong maintenance is essential for sustaining progress and preventing relapse. This final session focuses on empowering participants to integrate newfound habits and skills into their everyday lives, navigating challenges with confidence and grace. By fostering resilience and adaptability, individuals develop the resilience needed to thrive in the face of adversity, ensuring long-term success in their weight loss journey.

How Does Hypnotherapy Work?

Let's delve into the realm of Hypnotherapy, understanding its principles and the ways it can be of assistance. To grasp its effectiveness, it's essential to gain insight into the workings of the subconscious mind.

The subconscious mind serves as our mental repository, diligently recording and interpreting every life experience. It functions as our internal hard drive, governing automatic behaviors, thoughts, and values that shape our lives. Over time, these elements become entrenched, making conscious level alterations increasingly challenging. Negative mental self-talk (a.k.a. rumination), characterized by phrases like "I'm not worthy," "I'll never achieve," or "I can't," as well as ingrained habits such as leading a sedentary lifestyle, smoking, unhealthy eating, and procrastination, all originate from our subconscious—the realm of autopilot.

However, there is an effective path to facilitate change: entering a trance state and reprogramming the subconscious.

The trance, or hypnotic, state is a naturally occurring level of consciousness that each of us experiences during periods of deep relaxation, daydreaming, intense focus, or as we transition into sleep. In this state, our brain operates within the alpha and theta frequency range, granting direct access to the subconscious mind. This accessibility enables us to initiate the changes we genuinely desire and are prepared for, and this is where hypnosis assumes a pivotal role.

Hypnosis serves as a technique to guide individuals into a trance state. Contrary to the media's portrayal, which often focuses on entertaining stunts, ethical hypnosis, conducted by skilled professionals with a focus on healing and personal growth, can yield profoundly positive results. This is the essence of Hypnotherapy: empowering individuals to attain their goals, particularly those they have come to believe were beyond their reach. It offers a swift, constructive, and successful avenue for reprogramming our mental hard drive.

Lucas Fernandes - Milton Keynes/UK

“...Although my goal was weight loss, during the sessions we uncovered issues that needed some attention for the process to be permanent, such as anxiety and low self-esteem; and it made me understand how it was influencing my relationship with food and how I was leading life in general. The sessions made me more confident and made me understand and address some habits and thoughts I had.

... I really appreciated Gus’s professionalism, he made me feel so comfortable during our sessions that it allowed me to open up and deal with issues in depth.”

Who Am I?
(Who is Dr Gus Chaves?)

I’m Dr. Gus Chaves, a medical doctor and licensed hypnotherapist, passionate about helping women over 30 achieve sustainable weight loss and build a healthier relationship with themselves. Originally from Brazil, I grew up across diverse cultures, which instilled in me the resilience and empathy that define my work today. My journey to hypnotherapy wasn’t a straight line; it began in business, led me to medical school, and ultimately sparked my interest in holistic healing practices like Chinese Medicine, acupuncture, and yoga. I even explored hospital clowning as a unique tool to deepen empathy.

Throughout my medical career, I realized that the most transformative moments often came not just from medical knowledge but from genuine human connection. This insight led me to hypnotherapy, where I could integrate my medical background, holistic practices, and personal journey toward self-acceptance to make a meaningful impact.

Today, I’m dedicated to guiding clients through hypnotherapy to break free from weight struggles, negative self-beliefs, trauma, and emotional barriers. My unique approach combines medical science, NLP, trauma-informed coaching, and hypnotherapy to support you in achieving lasting change.

And as a fun fact—I’m a big fan of indoor plants! I believe nurturing them is a great reminder of how small, consistent actions can foster growth, much like our work in hypnotherapy. If you’re ready to overcome the challenges holding you back, I invite you to join me on this transformative journey. Together, we can unlock your true potential.
