Transformation Starts with Action
Many of my clients choose to work with me because they aim to make positive changes to their bodies. This desire may stem from a health scare, a realization of aging, or an awareness of unhealthy habits related to food and drink.
I love working with these individuals, as the journey of transformation is both profound and exceptionally rewarding.
From the outset, I pose a few questions to my clients that I believe can be valuable reflections for all. Consider these:
1. What journey have you undertaken with your body thus far?
2. In the current state of your relationship with your body, what do you need to let go of?
I encourage a shift in perspective. Rather than coming from a place of a battle to master the body, I focus on mastering our relationship with our body.
Our body is an incredible gift that serves us throughout our lives. It operates 24/7, doing its best with what we provide for it and how we treat it. Our body constantly communicates with us, many are unaware of it. Most people don’t understand the language because it’s never taught.
Therefore, my initial focus =is on “Body Talk” — understanding this language and communication, to tap into our “Body Intelligence.” This can be transformative, addressing dysfunctions such as IBS, eating disorders, hypertension, diabetes, and various chronic health issues.
Next, we delve into “Body Identity.” What do you say about your body? Do you chastise it or express anger towards it? Do you openly declare that you “hate” it?
We strategically look at what patterns and processes you are running, consciously and subconsciously.
We explore your “beliefs” about your body. Do you believe your body easily accumulates fat, or that you have poor digestion, or that you’re not a sporty person? These patterns and beliefs often maintain the status quo.
Ever heard of “Cybernetics”? It’s the science of communications and automatic control systems in machines and living things. Psycho-cybernetics can either work for or against us, depending on our beliefs.
Dr. Maxwell Maltz, in his book “Psycho-Cybernetics,” explains how the self-image controls one’s ability to achieve goals. Techniques like visualization, mental rehearsal, and relaxation, developed by Dr. Maltz, has informed and inspired countless motivational gurus, sports psychologists, and self-help practitioners for more than fifty years.
I incorporate Psycho-Cybernetics into my work with clients, rewiring our brains for transformation. If this resonates with you, take action!
