Empowering Yourself - Getting in Shape

Mike and Joyce speak with Lisa Dwoskin about fitness. And don’t worry, as a former gym owner she believes that the WORST way to get in shape is to join a gym!

How many people think, “If only I could lose the weight then I would finally be happy” … but the obsession with winning the perfect body is a recipe for misery and disappointment.

• 1 in 4 people make the same resolutions every year…and still fail to achieve them. The awful truth is almost everyone who tries to get into shape self-sabotages. Why? They only focus on the body and not the mind.
• 73% Of Folks Who Set Fitness Goals As New Year’s Resolutions…Give Them Up Example: If you are addicted to junk food, the problem is only partially physical. The craving for junk food starts in the mind…and can only be dealt with by working with the mind first.
• 13% of people lie about going to the Gym

It’s the shame of feeling like a “failure” or “hopelessly behind” in health which ruins peoples results.
By taking a different approach and learning to accept oneself first. Only then is total mind and body health possible.
