4-Week Functional Health Transformation

"Let food by thy medicine and medicine be thy food." - Hippocrates

Most of today's chronic diseases are attributed to the Standard American Diet (SAD). Accelerated aging is also a repercussion of the typical American diet. In week 1, creating a food journal for the first seven days of the course will give you a good idea why you might be overweight, are type II diabetic, or have hypertension. The issues with your diet can't be changed until you become aware of what foods are deteriorating your health. Food journals offer a tremendous amount of information concerning your health. Once you're conscious of what you're putting into your body, you'll quickly understand why health issues are becoming a concern in your life.

Explanation of what a food journal is and it's importance for becoming aware of why you might have health issues.

I explain what information needs to go into a food journal so that you can discover why you may be overweight, or have high blood pressure or type II diabetes. I also explain the macronutrient distribution that's been scientifically-proven to help lose weight while maintaining important muscle mass. And I go over a few micronutrients that have been blamed for some of today's degenerative diseases.

Every cell in your body hears your every thought. We become what we think. The second week delves into how beliefs are formed. Only you can change your thoughts. But you have to unravel the "garbage" in your subconscious mind, erase the negative recorded voice you hear, and rewrite your beliefs that will serve your health and every other aspect of your life. There will be a recorded hypnotherapist session introducing you into how a negative body image will make you believe that it's okay to be overweight so that you continue habits to stay in your current unhealthy comfort zone. Changing your negative beliefs that don't serve you for positive beliefs to help transform your life is the only way to make sustainable healthy changes.

Our beliefs control our actions and behaviors. Our actions and behaviors reinforce our beliefs, making our beliefs stronger and harder to change - including beliefs that don't serve us. To change your belief, therefore change your actions and behaviors regarding that belief, you have to communicate with your subconscious mind. And hypnotherapy is a vehicle used to do just that. This isn't a one time fix. To get the true benefits of this hypnotic session, it should be used often, preferably every day.

Stress kills! It slowly breaks down your body bit-by-bit each day until one day you realize you have serious health issues that are going to take time and effort to reverse. Almost 300 years ago, Benjamin Franklin coined the phrase, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." And those words ring even louder today. We live in an over-stressed society that robs our bodies of nutrients and cripples our immune systems. The third week will enlighten you on the quiet destruction stress has on our bodies when we enter the fight-or flight response. You'll be armed with a beginner's course to gentle yoga that will teach you to use your breath and body to get out of the stress response and into the relaxation (health) response.

We live in a stressful world. And it's also a stressful world inside of our bodies from the air we breathe to the foods we eat. When we eat manmade chemicals disguised as food, our bodies don't recognize these chemicals and treat them as foreign invaders by releasing inflammatory chemicals to help eradicate these invaders. So stress causes inflammation, which has been marked as the culprit to many of today's chronic diseases like obesity, heart disease, type II diabetes, and more. Learning techniques like yoga will help initiate the vagus nerve to relax your overstressed body and help put your cells in a growth state so they can perform as they should to keep you healthy.

The forth, and final week, the biggest question I get as a healthy lifestyle TV personality, host for a radio talk show, and public speaker is addressed in a simple demonstration explaining a complex bodily mechanism. By the end of the fourth week, you'll understand why you keep regaining all of your lost weight after each failed diet, why it gets harder to lose weight as you get older, and what needs to be done to drop the extra poundage and keep it off - PERMANENTLY! The 4-Week Functional Health Transformation course is about addressing all of the pillars of sustainable optimal health. Yo-yo dieting will be a thing of the past once you implement what you'll learn in this course. We all want to look aesthetically pleasing and losing the weight is only a derivative of the true benefits coming from creating healthier cells. Our bodies birth 300 billion new cells each day. And each day you have a chance to make those 300 billion new cells healthy or sick. You have a choice every day to become sicker and sicker or healthier and healthier. Only you can make that choice and my 4-Week Functional Health Transformation course is the vehicle to take you there.

A strong understanding of the body fat set point is crucial before your health journey. Otherwise, according to statistics, you'll regain all of your lost weight PLUS some within a short period of time. Worse yet, most of that regained weight will come in the form of more body fat, which is exactly what you don't want.
