The Wellness LifeStyle

And

Lasting Weight Loss.

 

These are two sides of the same coin.  Sensible, informed choices about food and drink and the level and type of activities we pursue, and how well we manage our stress, go directly to our health and weight. 

 

And Hypnotherapy is proven to increase the rate of weight loss and to keep it coming off1.

And it’s the sticking to it and keeping it coming off that really counts.

 

LifeStyle and Weight loss are built into our Stress Management Program.

 

A lifestyle is not just one thing, but a group of things that are maintained by your attitudes and your belief system.  Granted, much of this came from your family and upbringing, but now it’s up to you to decide how you want to live your life.  You can Make It Happen and hypnotherapy can really help you do it2.

 

RESTRUCTURING YOUR SELF IMAGE AND BELIEF SYSTEM.

Your present self image and belief system maintains you as you are.  It controls your decisions and your feelings, making you stable.  This is just as it should be.  However if you want to make permanent changes, you have to start here.  If not, you will have to fight against your present self image and belief system until you finally wear out and give up and snap back to your present self.  By restructuring these into a strong, positive self image and belief system you are propelled forward to your Best & Most Ideal Self.

 

STRESS RELIEF AND YOUR COMFORT ZONE.

If you’re stressed-out or anxious or just not in your comfort zone, you will be looking for immediate comfort and gratification.  You are much more likely to have a negative attitude about most things and consequently negative feelings.  Did you know negative stress suppresses your immune response making you more susceptible to illness & serious disease?  Feeling relaxed, confident & joyful is not only empowering but healthier.

 

MINDFULLY SELECTED FOODS

This is very important.  How about the sensible concept, “Everything in Moderation?”

Sounds good but it’s not science.  Here’s why.  Look at a supermarket.  There are fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products and meats.  These are about 10% of the store.  The rest of the store, 90%, is invented foods that were invented, not as excellent nutrition for humans, but as excellent money makers for the manufacturer.  Everything in moderation gives you 90% junk.  On the other hand, the Glycemic Index, is an easy guide and it’s good science.

 

CORRECT PORTIONS

We live in a Super Size, Big Gulp society. 

But remember it’s your body and their wallet that gets Super Sized.

 

SNACKING

Some diabetics need to have their food spread out.  The rest of us should have regular meals.  Constant nibbling trains you to eat all day & never feel satisfied.  But you can target snacks to fill out your dietary needs.  And snacks can be one of life's pleasures, but like most things - it needs to be done correctly.  We have a snack plan.

 

SKIPPING MEALS

Saves calories right?  Wrong.  Skipping meals slows your metabolism to such an extent that you’re more likely to gain weight from skipping meals.  Eat, but eat right.

 

GETTING MOVING

Use it and lose it.  Exercise actually gives you energy and is absolutely necessary for health and well being.  You’ll be guided, at your own pace, into a routine that’s right for you.  You really can find pleasure in it.  It will lift your behind as well as your spirits.
