Let's face it, I've been in all kinds of therapy and self-help books, groups, counseling for a long time and nothing touched weight loss until I started Hypnosis. It's just that extra added guided bit of wellbeing. It helps me not binge, and t... Read more

So I talk a lot about my self-hypnosis, but it's literally been life-changing for me. All I have to do is identify an area that I'm struggling in, and then create a hypnotic meditation around it, and within a few days, it's changed. What I fin... Read more

So I did a very deep hypnosis session with myself yesterday, to determine why I can't break out of my plateau. I've been sitting in the same 5 lbs since October, and it's frustrating. I finally looked back and realized that I stopped losing we... Read more

I went on a 48-mile bike ride today, and it felt wonderful. My average pace was 14.2 MPH, and it was beautiful. It was 67 degrees out, which is unseasonably warm, and I went all the way around the lake. I accidentally paused my watch, so I'... Read more

I haven't been sleeping lately, like the last 3-4 days, and it is taking a toll! I feel groggy, disconnected, out of it, and spacy. I have a friend who is a therapist, and she tells me it's the hallmarks of shock and trauma. That between wha... Read more

And on to my calendar. Trying to get out of my head and my emotions, and go back to time blocking, so I just have chunks of time dedicated to working, exercise, meal prep, and play. If I don't block it, it doesn't happen. This way it's not an... Read more
