  • Motivation for the Long Haul

    Hopefully you know by now that without a positive and strong mindset, it can be really difficult to achieve the things that you're trying to achieve. 

    That is why we spent so much time developing positive mindsets. And it's why again it is what we are working on in this module -  it's all about motivation.

    Why it's so important to remind yourself why
    The power of using the word "YES"
    Get pumped up 
    All it takes is a moment to turn the day around

    Are any of these simple activities something you know you should take action on?

  • The Power of Letting Go and Forgivness

    Holding on to negativity, anger, shame, and blame does nothing for us but breed more of the same.

    By developing the skill of letting go, or forgiveness, you can GREATLY increase your mental and physical health.

    It's more than just the act of saying "I forgive you" or "I'm letting it go." It takes more than that, it's a process, Something that takes some time to happen. And sometimes it takes an outside perspective to initiate the process.

  • Mindset Matters: Proactivity vs. Reactivity

    Difficult situations don't always bring out the best version of ourselves...

    In fact, they often bring out the ugliest part of who we are.

    These reactions usually stem from stress, fear and anxiety...

    And then creates a worse situation that invokes deeper stress, guilt and shame.

    Which, as we all know, can drive us into a junk food rut, or worse...

    No thank you!

    Entertain for a moment the concept, "Reactivity? vs. Proactivity?" which brings about a simple way to grab onto the most real and best part of who you are so that you can OWN those difficult situations and stop the stress, guilt and shame from doubling! 

    So when it comes to life, do you do the punching?

    Or....

     Are you the punching bag...?

  • The Double-Edged Sword of Our Own Minds...

    Do you ever lie down at night and can’t fall asleep because your brain won’t shut off?

    How often do you wake up in the night wishing you could fall back asleep because you’re thinking of what happened 3 years, 7 months and 2 days ago at 4:34pm?

    Ever find yourself stewing and brewing up some anxiety and bad feelings over things that haven’t even happened yet?

    It’s REALLY frustrating, right?!

    “Just shut up already, stupid brain!”

    - A dangerous addiction so many of us suffer from
    - Resilience, Fear and Self Doubt
    - Stopping the mind "chatter" in its tracks


    Have you got a love/hate relationship with your own mind? Or worse?  You are not alone!

  • Flat Belly Hacks!

    DOESN'T SOUND LIKE US, DOES IT? BECAUSE IT'S NOT!

    Let's talk about:

     - The brain in your belly - the gut!

    - Everything you need to know to target fat lost

    How's that for a crazy promise?!
