Weight gain Secret?

You bet – Salt. Our bodies produce histamines when we are dehydrated and when we are hungry. When we are not mindful, we can’t tell the difference if we are hungry or thirsty. And snack food and fast food folks know it, that’s why they “salt it up”. Since salt helps retain water in our… Read more »

Did you know…

One of the greatest secrets in life is having both wisdom and patience? They go together splendidly. One can be wise and full of knowledge without a lot of common sense – as seen in the “absent minded professor”. Or one can have patience without wisdom, and it won’t get them very far. But Wisdom… Read more »

It’s only work…

When you would rather be doing something else. That’s also why people say you should find something you would like to do for “work” and you won’t be working anymore. Some have come to me having trouble with this concept…think of it this way…if you are happy while working, then it really isn’t work, is… Read more »

Focusing on just…

A few things, sometimes makes the experience better. No matter what we focus on, the focus raises all of our senses to take it all in.

Weight Gain and Soda Consumption???

Here’s the deal: Regular soft drinks contain large amounts of HFCS – High Frustose Corn Syrup, which impairs the feedback loop to your brain, resulting in you not being able to tell that you are full. This explains some of the people I coach that drink up to 12 regular sodas a day, and want… Read more »

We should always…
