WHAT EXCESS WEIGHT IS

WEIGHT & THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND                     

 It has been said that every pound of excess weight carried represents a pound of "emotional baggage". It is for this reason that once the weight has been removed it returns time and time again. The emotional issues which are causing it have to be dealt with before it goes away and stays away.

If negative emotions are not released at the time of feeling them, they simply get stored away in the unconscious memory bank and the subconscious mind forms extra weight to protect you from them.

The subconscious mind is unable to think and rationalise…......it simply acts in what it believes to be your best interests. It takes words very literally, which unfortunately leaves things very open to mis-interpretation! 

And because of its inability to think, the reason(s) behind it setting up an unwanted behavioural trait could be as big as an actual trauma (experienced or imagined) or as small as a simple, repeated phrase that has been heard. For example “Big girls/boys don’t cry."  OR "Clean your plate, there are starving people in the world." OR "Be a good girl/boy and you can have a treat."  The treat is almost always something sweet, thus appealing to our comfort needs.

Whatever the reason, the pattern of eating to feel better is set, and as the years pass, more and more emotion is stored, and more and more weight is accumulated. This is usually without the person even being aware of why. If the weight is taken off by dieting, it simply goes back on when eating returns to normal; usually plus some more!! The diet industry is well aware of this, therefore knows that its future profits are guaranteed.

The good news is that the pattern can be changed, and that is exactly what this program is designed to do............I hope that your visit to this site is YOUR first step on that journey.
