How Just One Simple Change in Your Thinking can make You 100% Happier and Healthier!

This could be the most important article I’ve ever written…

…here’s why…

I’ve recently discovered the number one reason why most people get anxious, sad, and depressed.

It’s NOT lack of money. And it’s NOT being in a job you hate. It really is, much, much, more simple than that. And when I tell you, you’ll be stunned! Because, it’s such an obvious thing.

And you’ll be pleased to know that you can make yourself HAPPIER—IMMEDIATELY once you have the secret. You’ll instantly feel like a HUGE weight has been lifted from your shoulders. You find you’ll be able to focus on what YOU want. You won’t be re-active to the actions of other people any more.

You’ll be FREE—and in control of your life again.

In fact, I’m 100% sure that if you were to make this quick and easy change today, you’d get rid of 80% of your daily stress.

Just imagine, you’re feeling stressed and anxious. You’re not sure why. Then all of a sudden, you remember the secret. You make one tiny shift in your thinking, and then to your amazement, you relax…you feel at ease…and it seems like you don’t have a care in the world.

The Secret

Okay, I’ll put you out of your misery. ALL UNHAPPINESS IS CAUSED BY COMPARISION.

Before I explain, here’s a question: Are you in the habit of comparing yourself with others? If the answer is yes, then you’re probably making yourself more unhappy than you need to.

So what do I mean by comparison?

Here are a few examples:

“Why does Bill make more money than me? He's in the same business as I am”

Or, “Why is my figure not like Susan’s, I go to the gym just as much as her.” Or “All our friends have BIGGER houses than us— we’ve got to move.”

I’m sure most of us have had this kind of internal dialogue going on inside our heads at some time or another. But, when it becomes a habit, that’s when anxiety and unhappiness creeps in.

The curse of comparison

So now you know what I believe to be the no.1 reason we make ourselves anxious and miserable. Of course, I didn’t invent this idea, much has been written over the centuries about this subject. It’s just that now more than ever before, people tend to make themselves miserable with this negative way of thinking.

So, next time you catch yourself comparing yourself to others, just STOP, BACK UP, and remind yourself that it’s not about what others have got, it’s about what you have, and what you want to achieve in life. It doesn’t matter what everyone else has or what everyone does, it’s about YOU and your life.

Try it. You’ll be much happier. You’ll have less stress. And you’ll live a longer and healthier life too.

Until next time!

7 Psychological Weight Loss Tricks

I usually know when people are trying to lose a few extra pounds for the summer. I know, because my book ‘Weight Loss the Forgotten Secret’ starts to sell like hot cakes again.

It’s understandable, just the thought of exposing over 90 % of my body to the world is a scary thought. So, what can we do to make ourselves look, and feel, sexier over the coming months?

Here’s what I recommend you do:

1. Start today! Don’t wait until tomorrow. There is no worse way to sabotage your goal than putting off starting your diet. It makes no sense! The sooner you start, the sooner you begin to see results.

2. Realise this: you never blow your diet. NEVER! If you succumb to the odd piece of cake, or chocolate, SO WHAT! If you think that you won’t EVER drift off your diet, and munch on a piece of pizza—or two, you’re wrong. You may hope you don’t have off days with your diet, but the reality is, you more than likely will. The secret is being able to get back on track again, and of course, avoid beating yourself up in the process.

3. Buy smaller plates. Yeah, I guess you know that already. But have you done it? If not— why not? … it works!

4. Get addicted to walking. It’s the best way to lose weight—period! Start off with 20 minutes a day, and then build up.

5. Make sure you get plenty of sleep. Research has shown that people who sleep for 5 hours or less tend to eat more. This is because when you sleep for 5 hours or less your body produces a hormone that increases your appetite. The good news is, you have another hormone that reduces your appetite when you sleep 8 hours or more.

6. Watch your stress levels. When we become stressed, most of us tend to overeat. It’s our way of coping. Take up yoga, or listen to some relaxation CDs. Do whatever you can to control your daily stress levels.

7. Eat slowly, ve-e-ry slowly! Recent research suggests that when we slow our eating speed down, we can reduce our weight by as much as 2 to 3 pounds a month!

That’s it. Now think about how you can use these tips to take control of your weight, starting today, of course.

Until next time

At Last…A Hypnotherapy Directory that Promises to Deliver!

The hypnotherapy profession is growing—and fast.

There is plenty of evidence that proves hypnotherapy works. It has been shown to greatly improve results in CBT (cognitive behaviour therapy) and there are numerous studies that prove the effectiveness of hypnosis on IBS (Irritable bowel syndrome).

Millions have quit smoking with hypnosis and millions more have lost weight with the help of hypnotherapy. The profession of hypnotherapy has come a long way indeed over the last twenty years.

But here’s the problem: the public are confused. There are so many different styles and philosophies out there that people need more information as to what type of hypnotherapy is best for them and who they can trust to deliver it—this lack of clarity is a real threat to the credibility of the profession.

Now there is a new website that offers a great service for those looking for a hypnotherapist: http://www.hypnotherapy-directory.org.uk/ . It is a professional directory and it’s free to use!

Imagine, you want to find a hypnotherapist but you don’t have a clue where to start—you simply go the hypnotherapy directory and type in the geographical area that you are looking for. A list will then come up of all the hypnotherapists that have been fully checked by the directory. You will find information about the different organisations and articles about different subjects: weight control, stopping smoking, IBS etc. There is also information about fees, type of training and the different services that are available. You get all the answers you need!

The reality is that hypnotherapy is a relationship between client and hypnotherapist. You have to like and trust your chosen therapist—that’s a large part of what makes it work. You need to choose a well trained hypnotherapist who cares, and that’s where this new directory can be a reliable resource.

My conclusion: anyone looking for a hypnotherapist will find this directory valuable. The time for hypnotherapy is NOW! And now is the time for a good, professional website that can help people make the right choices.

The Real Truth about Tiger Woods!

No, I am not referring to his recent accident. I am talking about his success secret, or one of them. Yes, he is a naturally talented and gifted man. But, what most people don’t realise is that he has learned to use the highly useful tool of self-hypnosis.

Tiger has discovered the secret that almost all successful people have discovered. It is the amazing ability to focus the mind and create positive outcomes….And he is not the only celeb that uses this skill….

…Sylvester Stallone, Matt Damon and Sir Winston Churchill…Yes, they have all used hypnosis to improve their lives!

Sylvester Stallone used self-hypnosis to help himself to become successful back in the Rocky days. Matt Damon quit smoking with Hypnosis. Winston Churchill used a form of self-hypnosis to help him to make important decisions during his time in office. There are of course many other famous people who have been helped by hypnosis, some you may know about, and others who choose to keep it a secret.

It has been well documented that Winston Churchill spent 30 minutes each day in a state of inner focus. He would close his eyes, go inside himself and clear his mind ready to address the many important decisions that he needed to make.

Many famous people have got help from hypnosis over the years. Billy Joel and Drew Barrymore both quit smoking with hypnosis. One well known singer from the seventies took things a step further, she is now a hypnotherapist. Her name is Helen Ready. Remember her? Helen sang “I am a woman”

How much is Tigers success down to self-hypnosis? We may never know, it could be 10% or maybe even 90% nobody can answer that. But remember just because you are born with the potential to be good at something, you must be able to channel that potential in the right direction.
