Lose Weight, Gain Back Your Life
I’m going to share with you a simple but very life
changing technique
that will change the many years of overeating, emotional eating or
yoyo
diets. It has changed my life and the lives of all those who have
undertaken my program.
In order to move forward you need to look back. Back on the things that
keep reoccurring that stop you from breaking through those overeating
barriers which are: Fanatical Dieting, Emotional Eating and Conditioning
(see my article ‘3 reason why we fail at dieting’.
For those who live in the ‘3 reasons why we fail at dieting’ mode, I am
going to share with you for FREE a very simple technique to overcome it.
It doesn’t matter whether you believe in it or not. All you have to do
is
do it and you will start to have changes instantaneously.
Fanatical dieters
Scientific research shows 90% of people who attempt to lose weight FAIL
and how do the 90% of people who fail feel…like failures, but they keep
dieting anyway thinking the next diet will be the one that works. Some
success, then no success and although some weight may have been lost it
all gets piled back on again…making you feel once again like a failure.
Let me make one thing quite clear. You are not stupid, dumb or lazy. Losing weight has nothing to do with will power or lack of it. So get
that
information out of your head.
Emotional Eating
Emotional eating is the second most proven reason for overeating,
causing
obesity in the world. Eating because of boredom, loneliness, being
miserable, tired and a million and one other reasons – none of which has
anything to do with physical hunger.
Emotional eating is a nagging, get rid of the nagging and no more
emotional eating.
Conditioning
Basically over a period of time of overeating you have conditioned your
mind and body to be that way. No amount of dieting, will power, pills
and
shakes can change that.
The only way to lose weight and keep it off is to change the way you
think
about food and your relationship with it. It’s about reprogramming our
mind
and body again.
Solution
Emotional Freedom Technique! I’m not going to go into the how to's, where
for’s or history of Emotional Freedom Technique. You can go to my
website
for that. Basically the precept of this technique is ‘the cause of all
negative emotion is a block in the body’s energy system’. Get rid of the
block and you nullify the emotion.
Once again to utilize this technique you only need DO IT! You don’t have
to
believe in it that really doesn’t matter but to get the full benefits of
it
you do need to DO IT!
Emotional Freedom Technique works by tapping on parts of the body’s
energy
meridian and speaking some affirmations. No pills, No shakes, No
exercise
equipment, No drugs, No side effects, No money passing hands…just the
technique.
Tapping
You will be using your pointer and middle fingers from either hand to do
the
tapping. At each meridian you will tap 7 times, give or take this method
is
very forgiving.
The Setup
The most important part of the technique is the setup. To do this we say
an
affirmation whilst tapping or rubbing a particular spot. For the purpose
of
this exercise I am going to show you the karate chop set up.
If you have
a
look at your hand, palm facing you, look at the side of the hand from
the
top of the pinky finger down to the wrist. Just above the wrist is a
flesh
part where one would normally do a karate chop…have you found it. If so
this
is the area you will tap using you pointer and middle fingers.
Ok…so now that we have all of that out of the way I want you to tap you
karate spot for practice.
Basic Recipe - The Meridians
The meridians are as follow, try and find it on your body as I mention
it.
Practice a little so you become familiar with them.
1. Eye Brow – this is the beginning of the eyebrow above the nose
2. Side of Eye – this can be found the bone at the end of the eyebrow
3. Under Eye – on the cheekbone under the eye
4. Under Nose- under the nose above the top lip
5. Chin – the crevasse between the lower lip and the chin
6. Collar bone – just under the collar bone
7. Armpit – halfway down under the armpit
8. Thumb – under the nail of the thumb
9. Pointer finger – bottom side of the nail facing the thumb
10. Middle finger - bottom side of the nail facing the thumb
11. Little finger - bottom side of the nail facing the thumb
Repeat 1 to 7
The Affirmation Statements
Whilst tapping your karate spot you say an affirmation that is specific
to you. Where there are blanks you fill in the reason. For the purpose
of
this exercise we are going to work on a particular food craving of
yours.
What I want you to do is go buy yourself what ever it is you craving,
keeping in mind you may not want to eat it when you finish this
exercise.
Before you start this exercise I want you to rate your desire to want
what ever it is you have a craving for. I want you to smell it and savor
the smell. I want you to have a small bite. Now on a scale from 0 – 10,
0 being no craving, 10 being crave it, write it down on a piece of paper
for later reference.
The Statement
Whilst tapping your karate spot say the following affirmation as loud as
you possibly can, if you can’t say it out loud, say it loud in your
mind.
Repeat the affirmation and tapping 3 times.
“Even though I have a craving for ………………… I deeply and completely accept
myself” Repeat 2 more times
Now follow the Basic Recipe, whilst tapping at each meridian say
“craving
for …….”
“Even though I still have a craving for ………………… I deeply and completely
accept myself”
When you finish rate yourself from 0 – 10 again and write it down. You
should notice a shift in your desire to eat what ever it is you desire,
even
to the point it no longer taste the same to you. If you haven’t reached
a 0,
repeat this exercise again.
The Emotional Freedom Technique works equally well on the ‘3 reasons why
we
fail at dieting’, this can be overcome using my highly successful Gain
