Health Creation 2018- an Upcoming Class





On Saturday, January 6 at 11 AM I will be offering a Health Creation class for anyone who is looking for inspiration and guidance on how to make 2018 a healthier and happier one for yourself. It will be held in the 2nd floor conference room at my office building, 302 Hawthorne Ave (Route 35 N) Point Pleasant Beach, NJ.

The start of the New Year is often when people consider adopting a healthier lifestyle, however it can be challenging to do this on your own. The information we will be covering is derived from my 20+ years experience and training as a professional hypnotist and health coach. Some of the topics we will be exploring include;
-How to set goals that are motivating yet realistic.
-Identifying and overcoming potential obstacles.
-The 5 secrets of healthy eating.
-Proper ways to use encouraging self-talk.
-A new way to look at setbacks.

There will also be a guided imagery process that will help you to develop a more confident mindset. All participants will also receive a complimentary print copy of my new book Attainable Sustainable CHANGE along with a secret gift worth much more than the price of admission.

Advance prepaid registration* is required due to limited class size, which you can handle through the secure Pay Pal link below. If you have any questions, please feel free to give me a call at (732) 714-7040, I hope to see you there!

Empowering Questions? A Free Life Enhancement Tip

The use of affirmations is a time tested means of cultivating a positive mindset. Essentially the method involves making self-statements where you state a desired goal as if it were currently true. Examples:

"I am strong and confident."
"I see myself as thin and healthy."
"I choose to eat healthy foods in the right amount."

It is known that if a suggestion is delivered repetitively and with emotion, eventually it will be accepted by the subconscious mind as true. Yet some people don't have the desired response to affirmations, especially when there is a wide gap between their intentions and their current perceived reality. It can seem too much of a stretch if a person is excessively stressed or in a place of deep discouragement to imply they feel otherwise.

An alternative to affirmations is the use of what could be called empowering questions. This technique takes advantage of two little known principles that enable you to avoid creating conscious resistance.

First, the brain will reflexively attempt to answer any question put to it and may continue to work on it "under the radar" so to speak even if you don't know the answer right away. A perfect example of this is the tip of the tongue phenomena. Let's say you try to remember the name of someone you went to high school with but you draw a blank. Hours later when you are doing something totally unrelated, the name springs to mind. Clearly the subconscious mind continued to work on the challenge.

The second principle is that questions indirectly make assumptions. If I ask you how to get to the train station, its assumed going there is indeed possible or the question wouldn't be asked.
To use this technique, silently ask yourself a simple question such as:

"What can I do today that will improve my health?"
"How will I make my business more successful today?"
"What will enable me to feel more confident when I give my presentation tomorrow?"
"Why am I going to succeed at reaching my weight loss goals?"

Reflect on the question for a moment and then let the subconscious work on it. Sort of like the old rotisserie grill infomercial where you "set it and forget it." You might be pleasantly surprised at how the empowering question stimulates your problem solving resources.

I would encourage you to actually write out your empowering question on a post it note or index card and put it somewhere where you will regularly see it like on your mirror or nightstand to create a new habit of thinking.

Please feel free to connect if you have any questions, you can call me directly at (732) 714-7040.
