So many women and men understand that knowing what not to eat, doesn't stop them from eating it. They know their problem isn’t what they eat, but why they eat it.
 
I struggled with this for a quarter of a century!  😬
 
I just wanted to know why I couldn’t make change stick!
 
How could I do all that research💻, constantly read 📚book after book and attend training after training📜, year after year🗓 and apply what I was learning but still find myself back where I started?🥺
 
Why did I relapse back into old behaviours where cravings would ultimately win the battle over and over again?😭

Everything I read and learned always talked about the ego and the unconscious mind. As far as I could see the ego, the unconscious mind were all separate to who we are – to who I am – because they seemed to be the one running the show – my show! 😲

Why restrictive diets are not helpful for sustainable weight loss...

Are the plans you're making or actually implementing, plans that are focused on losing weight?

Or are they plans that are focused on long term health and happiness?

We get so caught up in believing that just losing weight will take us to great health and consequently to great happiness.

But the truth is, a high majority of people who are just focused on losing weight, put it back on. Either not long after having lost enough weight that they feel a sense of relief, or when they next experience a change in the routine structures they've set in place to sustain their diet and exercise (holidays, crisis, changes in relationships, work, finances, health).

To create long term sustainable health habits, you really have to understand what's going on inside your unconscious operating system so you can navigate your way through the ups and downs of life without relapsing back into old habits.

Under stress, the brain doesn't invent new strategies for coping, it falls back into old ones.

What is good rest for you?

👉 Is it sitting on the couch watching TV

👉 Is it sleeping all day

👉 or is it going out and having fun?

Whatever your definition of a good rest, we have to give our body the rest it deserves.

Let it relax, let it breathe, rejuvenate and charge its batteries. What's your rest look like?

Happiness is a skill we all must master.
