Exercise Isn't the Problem - The Message Is
A Healthier Exercise Mindset That Makes Movement Easier If you’ve ever said, “I hate working out,” you’re not alone. In fact, that sentence is so common that many people accept it as a fact — as if it were part of their personality. But what if the problem isn’t exercise at all? What if the real issue is the message you’ve been repeating to yourself for years? Because here’s the truth: Most people don’t hate exercise. They hate the story they’ve been telling themselves about


How to Fit Exercise into Your Schedule (Even When Time Is Tight)
When people say they don’t have time to work out, what they usually mean is this: there’s no obvious place for exercise in their schedule. Life feels full already — work, family, appointments, responsibilities, and fatigue all compete for attention. If exercise doesn’t seem to “fit” neatly into the day, it’s often the first thing to get pushed aside. I’ve been guilty of this many times myself. The good news is that exercise doesn’t have to look the same for everyone, and it d


Exercise Snacks: Smart, Effective Movement That Fits Real Life
When people say they don’t have time to work out, what they usually mean is that there’s no obvious place for it in their schedule. Between work, family, responsibilities, and exhaustion, the idea of carving out 30–60 uninterrupted minutes for exercise can feel unrealistic—or even discouraging. And for many people, that’s where the story ends: If I can’t do it “right,” I won’t do it at all. But what if movement didn’t have to look like a traditional workout to be effective?


My Love/Hate Relationship with Exercise (and How It Finally Changed)
If anyone had told me 30 years ago that at the age of 68 I would be exercising several times a day – and enjoying it – I would have laughed in their face. Loudly. At that point in my life I was married to a dentist with a busy practice and we had 2 young sons about 5 and 7 years old. Exercise was something I vaguely knew I should be doing but simply didn’t have the time to mess with. Looking back, I realize I didn’t just have a love/hate relationship with exercise — I had


Natural, Easy Changes That Support Weight Loss(Without Extreme Dieting)
When most people think about weight loss, they think about food rules, intense workouts, and willpower . While nutrition and movement absolutely matter, many of the most powerful weight-loss tools are simple lifestyle habits that are often overlooked. If you’ve struggled to lose weight—or keep it off—this may be why. Weight loss isn’t just about what you eat. It’s about how your body functions, how your brain responds to stress, and how well your daily habits support bal


Why Changing Your Thoughts Is Essential for Weight Loss - And How Hypnosis Helps Make That Change Last
When it comes to weight loss, most people focus on food plans, exercise routines, and willpower. While those elements matter, they often overlook the most powerful driver of behavior: your thoughts. If weight loss were only about knowing what to eat and how to move, far more people would succeed long-term. The real challenge isn’t lack of information — it’s the automatic thoughts, habits, and emotional responses that run beneath the surface. Thoughts Drive Behaviors (Whether


Calm Your Mind, Not Your Cravings: How Hypnosis Reduces Stress-Driven Eating
Stress is one of the most common — and most overlooked — triggers for cravings. When life feels overwhelming, many people instinctively reach for food to find comfort, relief, or distraction. This isn’t a lack of discipline or motivation. It’s a brain-based response. The good news? When you calm the mind, cravings often fade naturally and hypnosis for cravings is very effective. Why Stress Triggers Cravings Stress activates the emotional centers of the brain, particularly are

Reflect, Release, Renew
So often we get caught up in the mad dash from Halloween to Thanksgiving to Christmas and to New Year, that those months pass by in a blur. Maybe it's time to change that. Let's use December as a time to relfect (on where we've been), release (things that are holding us back), and renew (looking forward to the year ahead and the possibilities it holds). Let's make it a point to step into the new year feeling physically stronger, emotionally lighter, and spiritually grounded
