Imagine…you’re at the supermarket, you’ve got a real craving for something salty and crunchy BUT you want to lose weight and improve your health. You’re body and mind are insistent that you satisfy their desire and you find yourself standing in front of the crisps.

You want to pull yourself away, but your feet stay stuck to the floor and your eyes glued to the crisps in front of you. You’re fighting with yourself “No, I don’t want them!” you say, but that other part of you, the one that feels so strong, is saying “Yes you do, they will taste soooo good!”

You break out in a cold sweat, the wanting is pretty intense and you know that you’re not going to be able to walk away empty handed, so your eyes are looking at what’s in front of you and you’re thinking I’ll get the best choice I can make.

What you see on the shelf is potato chips, vegan beetroot chips, lentil crisps, broccoli puffs, cauliflower puffs and lightly salted hemp and blue corn chips.

That part of you that wants to mak...

We’re the only ones that can create our health. The problem is that we don’t know that we know that.

I remember always looking to others to tell me what to eat and how to exercise, what to do when, and how.

What I realised was all the weight loss plans, no matter how good they were, were really just that, a plan. An off the shelf solution, a one size fits all that at the end of the day really didn’t fit into my life: who I was, what I wanted to do, how I wanted to do it.

It was like being given a hiking map that tells me what path to follow through the forest and up to the top of the mountain. It tells me the path to take, but not the obstacles I’d have to overcome along the way to be able to reach my destination.

And that was really the problem that had to be solved, was how to overcome the plethora of obstacles associated with weight loss.

So I developed a process, a system, which resolves the obstacle of overcoming the obstacles.

10 years later, that process is a course I shar...

Did you know it's because your brain gets tired?

And the good news is that you can revitalize your brain power easily and quickly and generate more will power and motivation and get yourself back in control.

How?

Give yourself a moment to rest your mind through relaxation.

It's as easy as:

◾ Sitting at your desk put your head in your hands Close your eyes
◾ Rest Breathe Deeply
◾ Allow yourself to slow down

Do this 6 times a day and replenish your will power resources.

Sam Altman said: "Hard work compounds like interest, and the earlier you do it, the more time you have for the benefits to pay off."

Why do we put off losing weight? Why do we avoid facing the truth about our weight and that it’s time to take care of ourselves and live our life free from the hours a day that thinking about our weight and body takes up?

Because we all think that losing weight is hard work.

If that quote from Sam Altman read: “Taking consistent and persistent action compounds like interest, and the earlier you do it, the more time you have for the benefits to pay off” you’d get a different vision in your mind wouldn’t you?

That’s really the secret to losing weight and indeed achieving any goal in life, consistency and persistency in deciding what you need to do to get you where you want to go and then making a plan to do it, scheduling it in to your mind and then taking the action and implementing.

There are just so many things around you that can help you get into the state of happiness fast.

At any moment of any day, especially when life feels hard, pause and take a moment to remember something that makes you happy (keep it simple: puppies, birds, flowers, kids laughing, snuggling in your comfy bed perhaps).

Or simply look outside and see the real things that are there just waiting for you to enjoy them: the blue sky, a baby laughing, kids playing, the trees, the flowers, even the weeds that grow and flourish in the sidewalk can be beautiful if you think about how they grow to full bloom even in such harsh environments.

Think happy and you will look for happy things. Did you know that what you look for you normally find?

Feelings of happiness in your mind and body are the real secret to great health as they;

A Fool Proof Way To Achieve Easy Change Over 365 Days.

When we think about making changes, we often procrastinate because we think of change as 'challenging', 'daunting', 'uncomfortable' or we just plain dread it.

We think we have to give up something to gain something and we're not always keen on giving up things we've grown attached to, even if they're things that no longer serve us in helpful, healthy or happy ways.

So imagine if you could simply allow yourself to out grow it?

Out growing stuff is easy right?

You've been doing it your whole life.

You've outgrown:
🎈Santa
🎈The tooth fairy
🎈Sucking your thumb
🎈Being scared of the dark
🎈Toys you've loved
🎈Friends from childhood
🎈Friends from school
🎈People you used to work with
🎈Neighbours you no longer live next too
🎈Groups you're no longer involved with
🎈Schedules you've lived by
🎈Having someone look after you
🎈Playground scuffles
🎈Being upset with your friend for having their lunch with someone else
🎈The fashion you wore in the 80's
🎈The hairstyle ...

When I decided to forget about dieting and focus on living, it changed more than my weight, it changed my life.

I'd grown up around trucks and when I was a little girl I went to work with my dad a lot and naturally I wanted to be a truck driver just like him. My father had a long history of driving international trucks in the 50’s and 60’s and in the 70’s he worked in Gove and Weipa, back before there was “fly in/fly out”, which meant we didn’t see him for a long time.

In 2012, I finally got my opportunity to make that little girl's dream a reality when I got on a project in Weipa operating a 60 Tonne rigid (which I learnt to operate on the job).

I worked on 2 more projects after Weipa; McArthur River and Maules Creek. There was a lot to love about this work, and one of them was living in a camp. Whilst most complained that they put on lots of weight as the food was all supplied, I always lost weight. I was just so happy living life that I was no longer using food to manage my emoti...

Happiness actually isn’t very highly rated; it is highly coveted, but not highly rated in regards to the value it can add to your life.

Yet the ROI on happiness is massive!

It:
😂 Lowers your risk for cardiovascular disease
😂 Lowers your blood pressure
😂 Enables better sleep
😂 Improves your diet
😂 Boosts digestion
😂 Reduces stress and anxiety.
😂 Boosts your immune system
😂Reduces inflammation in the body
😂 Reduces auto immune problems
😂 Improves blood flow through your body by releasing tension from your body
😂 Releasing tension from the body reduces migraines, headaches and aches and pains
😂 Improves brain function (all the increased blood flow clears thinking)
😂 Increases mental health
😂 Increases emotional health

All of which helps you to maintain a healthy body weight because when you feel good you make better food choices, you want to exercise more, drink less alcohol and generally you have all round better health habits because happy people make happy healthy choices.

Imagine what you could...

The other day I popped a post in about what’s gone on in the background to get up my business up and running. The post was about how I needed to learn everything from scratch, basically I put myself through what I laughingly call “Katie University” as I’ve tried to work it all out and put the pieces of the business puzzle together.

And you know what, as I look at that post, I can see that’s exactly how dedicated I was for the 25 years preceding it when I was putting myself through another version of “Katie University” when I was trying to work out how to lose weight and stop relapsing and putting it back on. I wish I’d logged the hours I’d spent reading and listening to audiobooks, CDs, going to workshops, seminars, and taking courses. Not to mention my fetish for constant note-taking and writing down ideas and insights which filled many journals over the years as I tried to piece together the puzzle that is human behaviour. Whilst I don’t know how many hours I invested I did work out...
