Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Hypna AI, self-hypnosis for weight loss, and how the program works.
What is Hypna AI?
Hypna AI is a 21-day self-hypnosis program for weight loss, delivered as an iOS app. You listen to a personalized 10 to 15 minute audio session before bed each night. The program uses evidence-based hypnotherapy techniques to help you change subconscious patterns around food, stress, and habits.
Is hypnosis scientifically supported?
Yes. Multiple meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials show that hypnosis is an effective intervention for weight management. A 2018 meta-analysis in the International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis found that participants receiving hypnosis lost more weight than approximately 94% of control participants. Hypnotherapy is also supported by studies on reducing food impulsivity, improving satiety, and changing metabolic markers like leptin and adiponectin.

Will I lose control during hypnosis?
No. This is one of the most common myths about hypnosis. You remain fully aware and in control throughout the entire session. Clinical hypnosis is a focused, relaxed state where your conscious mind quiets down and your subconscious becomes more receptive to positive suggestions.

Can I fall asleep during a session?
Yes, and that is perfectly fine. Many users fall asleep during or shortly after a session. The suggestions are still absorbed by your subconscious mind. In fact, the program is designed to work as part of your bedtime routine.
How is Hypna AI different from other weight loss apps?
Most weight loss apps focus on calorie counting, meal tracking, or exercise plans, all of which rely on conscious willpower. Hypna AI targets the subconscious patterns that drive overeating, emotional eating, and cravings. You rewire your habits at the source rather than fighting them with willpower.

Is Hypna AI a replacement for medical treatment?
No. Hypna AI is intended for general wellness and self-improvement. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult your doctor before making any medical decisions or if you have underlying health conditions.
Is my data private and secure?
Yes. Your privacy is our top priority. We do not sell your personal data. Information collected is used only to personalize your experience and improve the app. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Yes. You can cancel your subscription at any time through your Apple ID settings in the App Store. Your access continues until the end of the current billing period.
What kind of results can I expect?
Results vary by individual. Clinical research shows that hypnosis combined with behavioral strategies leads to significantly more weight loss than behavioral strategies alone. Most users report reduced cravings, better sleep, less emotional eating, and a healthier relationship with food within the first few weeks. Consistency is the most important factor.
