Well, if you're not doing anything else to manage stress and anxiety, I think yoga would help. I would think that the hypno program would be even better - it certainly helped me feel less out of control and panicky about my belly and its rumblings.
I think the key here is your anxiety, and not your appetite. Not that it wouldn't hurt to scan the IBS Recipes board and find something that makes your mouth water  , but it's the anxiety that's keeping you from eating. I know, because I spent too many damn years worrying about the stomach flu (and the few times I actually got it and threw up, I thought "that's what I was worried about? that's way easier than being nauseated and worried all the time!"). I can't say that I'm totally relaxed about it now, but I'm way better than I used to be. Some of that is not eating trigger foods, but a lot is the hypno.
