As women, most of us are really good about taking care of our outside appearance. We are good about doing things to enhance our outer health.

A really good menopause diet program needs to be well balanced and nutrient dense.

I think people are hard-wired to put the cart before the horse when it comes to getting things done. Achieving our fitness goals is no exception.

We scour the web, books, videos and other resources looking for the perfect plan, workout, program, diet, etc. The trouble is that more often th

Why do so many people find true abundance elusive? Most of them are missing the key ingredient: complete and utter confidence in themselves, which is inseparable from complete confidence in their physical self: their body.

An effective strategy for losing fat is to eat small, frequent meals – around 4 to 6 meals/day, about 2½ to 3 hours apart. Eating a large meal increases the opportunity for fat cells to extract fat from the blood and, therefore, grow bigger.

In addition, a 2-3 meal-a-day pattern causes the body to face long stretches without food. By the time lunch or dinner rolls around, you’re so famished you’re more likely to make unwise food choices and overeat.

Choose Behave Habits Interesting stuff. Have you been watching the latest Bob Proctor videos? They are awesome.

But what we both agree on is that it’s ‘stuff’ that we learned as kids, at school, from our parents and those beliefs and behaviours are what keeps us stuck. What sabotages us when we are looking at goals.r
