Topics covered:Introducing Dr. Beverley DavidWhy it's hard to follow through on...anything.Goals are easy to tick off a list, but our values are lifelong.Overwhelm happens when we are missing our connection to the here and now.Our capacity and how we spend our time on the essentials.Is weight loss a side project for you?Putting ourselves first by integrating this intention into our whole being.It's okay to make your health the most important area you focus on.We keep on learning even beyond the 91 days of The Program.We're making life-lengthening changes from the inside out.What do you need to do to get from here to there?Start slow, get slower.It takes time and we're here for it.What we are doing here is for life. The Livy Method works and it is not a quick fix.Giving ourselves time to nurture our thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and our body.Re-engaging with the work of making progress and why we learn more when it's hard and we persevere.The personal and profound experience IS hard...and worth it!Going back to basics for our WHOLE health. There are no unicorns!Stop trying and start becoming.Take a minute to remember why you are here and what you are doing for yourself.Keep showing up: remember you are resilient and resourceful.The Livy Method is the way: you get to carry the principles with you for life.Choosing our health and living a FULL life.Learn to walk, keep walking. Learn to drive, keep driving. Lose your weight, and keep living.Words matter: catch and change "I have to" to "I get to."This is about continuous living beyond The Program.Every day is a new start. Don't hold yourself back.Continuous learning and bringing fresh eyes to a deeper level each day.A 'start again' mentality versus starting each day with a fresh start.Be brave to reinvent yourself.
