Carol’s Check In:
I wrote quite a bit this week, so the book goal is progressing nicely. I’m really excited about [...]
I have been thinking about my inner workings for a few days (again!!). Carol and I talked about the 100 day challenge on Friday, and there are things I want to get done. But saying them in concrete terms was actually difficult. It was almost like I could not think of them. A little resistance going [...]
I got a wonderful reminder email from Daily Om about enduring discomfort when we try to change our habits. (Click on Daily Om link above to read.) This is something I know as hypnotherapist that our subconscious mind does things only because it sees those things as helping us. For example, the ice cream that [...]
When we are focused on being healthy our first thoughts go to eating well and exercising but I really think there is an even more important component that is often overlooked, “What feeds your spirit?” Often we eat the wrong foods because we feel we need something. We need comfort, love, a reward, recognition or time [...]
I wanted to share this tip that I modified a bit from the nutrition program that I was following in the beginning of the year–Ultra Lite. I learned a lot about healthy eating from working with this program and my awesome nutritionist Kathy Priesont. One of the things UltraLite does is give you packets that [...]
It is getting harder and harder to know what is healthy and what isn’t. A few weeks ago there was a study about farm raised Tilapia saying it was as bad for you as a burger. In general, farm raised fish isn’t good for you but many wild fish have mercury problems. But we are [...]
I have to admit, the hardest thing that has been recommended to me on my healthy eating plan is to give up coffee. I love my morning coffee and green tea or other beverages just don’t satisfy me the way coffee does. I love the whole morning coffee experience–grinding the beans, listening to the pot [...]
This intentional eating experiment is interesting. I realize how many days I eat without thinking about the food I’m ingesting much less setting the intention that I am eating to nourish my body and spirit. Yesterday for example I did well at breakfast. I made a beautiful egg white scramble with veggies and had some [...]
I’m doing an experiment this week, you can join me if you want. Every time I prepare food or eat I’m infusing the food with the intention of love and healing. Simply said as I’m preparing and eating my food I’m setting the intention that the food with nourish my body and help it self-heal. [...]
I was working on a weight CD for a client. I love doing these CD’s because they always help me too! As I was working on suggestions for not eating strictly because food is in front of us–this suggestion can forth.
Think of your car-you only fill the fuel tank when you need fuel for your car. [...]
