Introduction
Dearest Friend,
It would have been much easier for me to write another straight food and diet book. Easier because many expected that and easier because what I ended up writing for this book was much more challenging. But easier didnt feel right to me. I wrote this book because there was a burning drive inside me pushing me to do so.
Weight, health and beauty are problematic areas in most of our lives. You dont have to peer too hard to see societal evidence of this: countless diets, weight-loss products and infomercials; the increasing rate of eating disorders, especially among our younger sisters; and even extreme surgical measures, such as liposuction and gastric bypass surgery. This is not even to point out the alarming number of largely lifestyle-induced diseases.
Until now weve been conditioned to think of food as the primary factor in our weight and health. But theres a big truth that is largely unacknowledged in our modern world. You are a whole being made of interconnected aspects. For instance, you may have heard the gut referred to as the second brain given how closely the two interact, but you may not realize that repeated emotions and thoughts, both conscious and subconscious, affect the workings of your gut and digestion and can cause you to hold on to excess weight.
In fact, your mind can help you create the body you want, or it can sabotage your efforts to attain your ideal weight and even your beauty. My observations of clients, readers, friends and people all around me (not to mention myself), as well as thorough research, ultimately became the core teaching of this book: There is much more to weight loss, health and beauty beyond food.
Im not just talking about the well-known phenomenon of emotional eating. Rather, how all parts of your beingyour mental, emotional, spiritual and physical aspectsare interconnected and work together to shape your physical body in a rather shocking way. The exciting news is that when you understand how this works, you can actually influence the process with the internal power you already possess.
True power is when you connect to the wholeness that is you, and there is synergy between the mental, physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of your being, and complete alignment between your thoughts (such as I am healthy and look great, or I am fat), core beliefs (such as Losing weight and keeping it off is hard or At a certain age it gets even more difficult to lose weight), words (that you say to others and about yourself) and actions (such as what you choose to eat). When this happens, you embrace the ability to surpass any limitations you may have put on yourself in the past. You become in touch with your pure, creative power, and you can create anything you want, whether it be improved health, beauty, even the body shape you desire.
