Jim Katsoulis explains the four stages of learning (conscious incompetence, conscious competence, unconscious incompetence, unconscious competence) and applies them to weight loss to argue that lasting results require developing unconscious (subconscious) competence through repeated practice and mental programming. He gives practical approaches—imagery, hypnosis, habit design and action—to automate healthy behaviors, answers live audience questions about identity and negative thinking, and promotes his Program Yourself Thin resources (including a free hypnosis session, “New Thin Me”).
