The Program:

All habits and thinking patterns (and muscle memory!) work the same way and the behavioral changes I will help you with rely on it. If you’d like to dig deeper, look up “neural pathways” and “neuroplasticity”. In the meantime, below are 2 videos (they’re just 3 minutes each) explaining exactly how the brain works and how you can change it.

Below is a video explanation of why you’ve struggled to change habits and what to do about it.

A video example of rewiring using the proper methods to make affirmations work (because they’re almost *always* done wrong).

A few of the many benefits of self confidence:

The 3 pillars of awesomeness:

Mental self care consisting of Cognitive Restructuring, Mindfulness and Meditation helps with:

  • Discovering, challenging and modifying negative and irrational thoughts.
  • Reducing stress, anxiety, depression, blood pressure.
  • Improving sleep, self-awareness, attention span, memory and emotional regulation.

Practical problem solving allows us to:

  • Identify the actual (not perceived) challenge(s).
  • Identify possible solutions.
  • Choose best solution based on personal values and viability.
  • Reduce large challenges to small manageable tasks.
  • Prioritize effectively.
  • Crush challenges and create accomplishment

Regular physical exertion creates consistency and good habits. It also releases 5 brain boosting chemicals: Serotonin, Norepinephrine, BDNF, Dopamine, Endorphins. Together they:

  • Reduce depression, anxiety, frustration, fatigue, pain, fear.
  • Improve self-esteem, motivation, confidence, memory function, focus, sleep, low blood pressure, low blood sugar.
  • Helps with ADHD, OCD, PTSD

How it works:

This is a 3 prong holistic program encompassing both the mental and physical aspects of our health and adding the problem solving component required to effectively tackle your specific challenges.

  • Habits
    • Physical Health – We start slow and easy. The goal is not to spend 3 hours a day at the gym; people generally quit when doing that.
    • The goal is to start creating good habits. Once you get used to doing something and start seeing the benefits, it becomes easy to ramp up.
    • When we do ramp up, you won’t be doing marathons or body building. Unless you want to. Instead, you’ll settle on a program that gets you all the benefits without having to turn your entire life upside-down.
    • Mental Health – Again, we start slow and easy. Changing our thinking patterns doesn’t happen overnight.
    • We’ll define and understand how our self-critical inner voice works and why. He/she is constantly against us!
    • We focus on your successes and how you can use them to reframe your view of yourself.
    • Later we’ll use the same strategy to reframe specific negative thoughts or views of yourself.
    • We’ll bring in meditation and mindfulness. Hint: they’re super easy and useful.
  • Problem solving
    • We’ll talk about, and if needed, define your direction and goals.
    • We’re going to discuss your challenge(s) and identify potential solutions.
    • We’ll focus in on the optimal solution(s).
    • We’ll break the solution(s) down into small actionable tasks.
    • We’ll create a roadmap and follow it to completion.
    • I will hold you accountable. But you will be expected to hold yourself accountable as well.
