A new weight-loss pill claims that it can help those 7 out of 10 women committing to a New Year diet, by losing approx 2ibs per week without changing their eating habits. Whilst weight loss is good, I am concerned about the health hazards which come along with eating the wrong foods.
Losing weight is difficult for many of us women to conquer, but where are we going wrong? Yes, we may be changing our diets, or taking substitute pills/shakes/meals the list goes on! But unless we actually change our mindsets we will continue to fail every time.
NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) has been helping people to change their mindsets in the workplace, during hard times in their lives, to think more positive and much more for years now, and it can also help you to stay on top of your health.
I have just released my latest book Lose Weight with NLP that helps women to lose weight and keep it off, not by exhausting gym routines, potentially unsafe pills, or crash diets, but by just changing your mindset.
To give you an idea of how it works…We all have something in our brains called the Reticular Activity System otherwise known as RAS. Our RAS plays a vital part in making and sticking to goals. Of course, if you keep thinking that you can’t achieve your goal, your unconscious mind will start to believe that too and encourage you not to achieve it. And, if you find you are focusing on other things in your life that you don’t want, guess what, your RAS will do an excellent job of delivering those to you, too. For example, if all you focus on is going on being overweight, don’t be surprised if you find your weight increasing – not the other way round. The reason is that if you’re looking in the mirror and feeling terrible about you own reflection, that’s the signal you’re putting in to the universe. Your RAS is very obedient and tends to give you exactly what you focus on, whether you want it or not. In addition to all this is another very important fact. Our brains cannot process a negative. It deletes the negation encouraging us to do the one thing we shouldn’t be doing!
So when you make your next diet plans and commitments make sure you think about it first!
Lose Weight with NLP is available from Amazon.
