Do you have a favourite photo that reminds you of everything you love in one single image?

This photo does it for me.

I took it while standing on a platform waiting for an early morning train on one of my adventures. I saw this reflection in the window of a train and it just captured everything I love - the ease of being on the road!

I love love looooove the moments when I am no where in particular, those moments between destinations, those moments on the train, on the bus, in the car or on a plane when I am free to change my mind and go anywhere. I don't care about delays or cancellations or detours, I just love being on the road!

I'm not a light traveler by any stroke of the imagination but I am happy knowing that I am self-sufficient and that I have everything I need in that suitcase and the backpack on my back.

Actually, this is a fun fact about me that you wouldn't know:

Did you know that when you have a goal, that your motivation to achieve that goal is either away from something or towards something?
 
When you're motivated away from something, that is fear based motivation.

Away from Motivation:
🚀 Away from motivation is a fear based motivation. The fear will motivate you until you get far enough away from the thing you’re afraid of (a scary health, financial, relationship, or employment issue) and you’re no longer afraid, then your motivation beings to drop off and eventually you end up back where you started.
 
Then as you start to slide back to where you were, the fear kicks in and you once again take action.
 
Towards Motivation:
There are 2 angles to toward motivation.

The first kind is a short lived towards motivation, which means you become motivated to reach a goal that has a finite point in the future:  example to lose weight for an event, to save money for a particular purchase. But when you reach that destination, your motivation starts to wain a...

Hi there, I’m Katie Gordon and I am Dietless Living. 😀

And I was born to solve problems. 🥰

My most valuable skills do not involve my knowledge about human behaviours or my knowledge about food and exercise. 📜

My most important skill is my ability to radically transform the lives of the people I work with.

🤸‍♀️ My super power is to know the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that are keeping you stuck and how to gently lead you to more helpful thoughts, feelings and behaviours in fun and entertaining ways.

🎈It’s my ability to break down every problem behaviour you have into an easy to understand system that gives you choices, freedom and control over what you do.

👀 If you’re looking for the trap door out of emotional eating, self soothing with alcohol and food and whatever else it is that is keeping you stuck in dieting hell ‘then I can certainly help you

There’s so many people online telling you what to eat and how to exercise, right? 😵

But if you’re a yo yo dieter like I was, then you know tha...

You have to add LIFE into your life!

Have you ever felt stuck?

I have. It's such a powerless position to be in.

But no one is ever truly stuck, there is always something you can do to get yourself moving.

Step 1. Establish the direction you want to head in
Step 2. Get some paper and a pen
Step 3. Brainstorm all the wild and wacky ways that you can think of to get you from where you are to where you want to go
Step 4. Choose your first step
Step 5. Take action

It sounds so trite doesn't it? You've read those steps many times before I'm sure.

The thing is, when we are down, when we feel like we're stuck in quicksand, it's the quicksand of our mind that we're stuck in.

The simple act of writing stuff out will help you move through that quagmire and get yourself going.

You will have to do it again and again and again until you start to feel like the person who got dumped by the big wave as they finally swim to the top and break through the surface. Then you'll start to get some traction.

Keep going. Don't allow yourself to get bogged dow...

Master transition and focus on what you really want to do and achieve.

Are you creating success in your career but bankrupting your health to get there?

How many people strive for success in their careers and ambitions but at the cost of their health?

Burning the candle at both ends and in the middle, living under constant pressures and impossible deadlines and everything else that goes with it, all while looking after the family and often times, studying for their next degree or PhD as well!

Is it worth it though?

Do you suffer from:
◾ Indigestion, heartburn, reflux
◾ Bowel problems
◾ Insomnia
◾ Headaches, migraines
◾ Muscle tension and mystery body pains
◾ Skin rashes
◾ Brain fog and fatigue
◾ Joint pain
◾ Low mood and mood swings
◾ Weight problems

Stress is one of the leading causes of major health problems.

The solution is to reduce stress, but how do you do that when you have all those plates spinning? It feels impossible to step away from it all without it all collapsing and causing more stress.

🎈Imagine being able to relax amongst the chaos, living your life, unhur...

I Haven't Got Time To Exercise!

We think that getting regular exercise that makes a difference to our health has to be big blocks of time spent at the gym several days a week.

I remember when I decided that that really didn't work for me - at all!

So I made my own rules up about how and what exercise I would focus on. Lucky for me, I do love exercise, but I get bored easy and I really don't like having to go to the gym. I needed something that would fit into my life and make me happy.

So I came up with my two-minute rule. I know, two minutes is nothing right? And people often say to me, "Well, two minutes isn't going to make you skinny is it?!"

But I disagree.

When I decided on my 2 minute rule, I was still working at an office. I worked very long hours and I was tired when I got home and I didn't want to do exercise. So my rule was:

1. As soon as I got home, just put on workout gear.
2. Put on ABBA
3. Set the timer.
4. Grab my hula hoop
5. Dance around the house like a little nutty butty and d...

6 Tips To Achieve Sustainable Weight Loss

The diet and weight loss industry makes billions of dollars every year from people who really need actual help to change their eating habits, patterns and behaviours and make some real sustainable lifestyle changes that support that.

Diet and weight loss pills and programs do not teach you the strategies and techniques on how to change your eating habits, patterns, and behaviours; and more importantly, they don't teach you how to manage your thoughts and emotions that are tied up to emotional eating, binge eating, and overeating.

So, how do you achieve sustainable weight loss?
Here are 6 tips to help you achieve sustainable weight loss;

1.     Set realistic goals
There is no such thing as overnight success. Sustainable weight loss takes focus and attention but more importantly, you need to have knowledge of whats happening in your body and what to do to change your experiences. It is important to set realistic goals and take things one step at a time...

"You have to learn how to redirect your thoughts, feelings and behaviours and coach yourself."
