Conscious Weight Loss™ is a coaching process that makes your thoughts transparent to you so there's no more self-deception about the beliefs and behaviours that are keeping you overweight. If you say you want weight loss but your choices don't reflect this, there's truth to be with. Most people don't know how to be with their truth without judgement, so this manifests as resistance. This process helps you understand your resistance in its many forms (e.g. rationalizing, avoiding, sabotaging), learn from it and find your way back to your authentic self which, by the way, has no need for excess weight.

Conscious Weight Loss™ teaches a way of being that makes your weight loss inevitable.

The fundamental flaw with other weight loss offerings is their failure to recognize that resistance is a natural part of change. If you don't or can't follow their program, they insist the problem rests with you. This only erodes your self-esteem, leaving you worse off than when you started. Conscious Weight Loss™ teaches that every belief and behaviour currently operating in your life is serving a vital purpose and invites exploration and transformation through a compassionate lens.

Conscious Weight Loss™ is weight loss with dignity.

Dieting and exercise, by their very nature, are based on a control paradigm. They rely on external rules and/or restrictions to create an outcome of weight loss. And even if you manage to get there, you'll then be living in fear of regaining the lost weight because none of this has been internalized. This means your energy will always be preoccupied with your weight issue, which means you'll never be free of it. A choice paradigm recognizes that deep down your Soul knows what your own solution is and you’ll naturally begin to align with and choose from this perspective once you soften your resistance.

Conscious Weight Loss™ is weight loss with Soul.

We generally need to understand our thoughts first, before we have the clarity to act. But Einstein said "No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it," so unless you're actively seeking a higher level of consciousness through the teachings of others, you'll get stuck in your own limiting thought system. How do you know when you're mired? When you spend more time explaining rather than examining your beliefs and behaviours.

Conscious Weight Loss™ moves you from struggle to joy.

They're inseparable. That's why I've always said Conscious Weight Loss™ is first and foremost a personal growth process, with weight loss being the natural outcome of this focus. Personal growth replaces your long-standing coping mechanisms with proper life skills. Losing weight without doing this inner work is pointless. As soon as circumstances shift or your stressors increase, because you're still operating from the same coping mechanisms that caused your weight gain to begin with, your choices – and body – will eventually revert. This is the biggest blind spot of the weight loss industry.

Conscious Weight Loss™ is sustainable AND permanent.

As a personal growth process, it's the path that every one of us has to take eventually but not everyone realizes this. It takes at least six serious but unsuccessful attempts at losing weight through typical diet and exercise methods before a person is humbled enough to consider the wisdom of this process. At that point, they're more willing to admit that successful weight loss entails much more than just dieting and exercise and maybe, just maybe, they're getting in their own way.

Conscious Weight Loss™ moves you from knowledge seeker to wisdom connoisseur.

Individual coaching is a significant investment but the payoff is priceless. By seeking professional guidance through Conscious Weight Loss™, you'll experience palpable quality of life shifts within the first few sessions and you'll go on to take at least 10 years off your life's learning curve. It's far more costly financially, emotionally and spiritually to be living in struggle all this time. That said, affordability matters, so you can now access Conscious Weight Loss™ via teleclass recordings for a fraction of the fee of individual coaching.

Conscious Weight Loss™ is one of the most profound investments you will make in your life.

These are what I call the "mechanics" of weight loss and while they're essential, they're not where we begin. Most of my clients are already saturated with information about these when we start. Their gap isn't with knowing what to do, but rather, doing it. Bridging that gap in a natural way is my specialty. For the record, weight loss isn't sustainable unless it's natural.

Conscious Weight Loss™ is a completely natural approach.

You can lose all of your excess weight in this process and when it does come off, it tends to happen quickly. However, you may spend months unlearning your conditioning and rewiring yourself for this change first. For those that embark on this process from a personal growth perspective, they come to understand and value this as a necessary period of preparation. If you're just looking for a means to an end, you will not have the patience or humility required for this process.

Conscious Weight Loss™ is NOT a quick fix approach.

Yes, it's gentle and incremental so there are no extremes that can trigger health issues. The mindfulness, stress-reduction and body awareness techniques you'll learn in the process have even been successful at reducing and/or eliminating some health issues. I myself am completely free of debilitating back pain that used to severely limit my daily activities and make running impossible for me. Clients have reported reducing and/or eliminating their stress-related chronic pain as well as their use of anti-depressants (under their doctor’s supervision).

Conscious Weight Loss™ teaches self-integrity and balance.

Conscious Weight Loss™ is a cumulative process that consists of three developmental stages: Awareness, Truth and Alignment. I’ve designed 40 innovative concepts and exercises to help you learn and deepen these stages for yourself. This is the most comprehensive weight loss coaching process available in North America so you can expect to spend at least a year in the process. My primary objectives are to create a safe environment for your learning and an enjoyable way to apply it.

Conscious Weight Loss™ makes weight loss fun AND fearless.

Two hallmarks of my coaching sessions are clarity and energy. You'll come away with fresh perspectives and powerful insights about your weight loss struggle. Clients often experience "Aha!" moments that feel like they've just read a key passage from a great book. These moments help them see their belief and behavioural patterns more clearly, illuminating their path to growth. When you have this kind of clarity, you finally have the clarity to act. Clients typically report a renewed interest and even excitement about their weight loss efforts, completing their sessions in a better frame of mind and with more energy than when they started.

Conscious Weight Loss™ restores your sense of hope and possibility.

At the heart of it, weight loss is fear loss. Trace back any choice you make that doesn't support your weight loss and if you go far enough and deep enough, you'll discover an unexamined fear that's running your life. Address these fears through your personal growth and your weight will take care of itself.

Conscious Weight Loss™ is changing the way the world approaches weight loss.

It's called The Empress's New Clothes Don't Fit: The Bare Truth About Women and Weight Loss. If you're familiar with the original Hans Christian Andersen tale, you'll recall the Emperor got caught up in his own vanity until an innocent child finally spoke the truth about this. My book is a serious look at women and their weight issues – how the issue typically starts from simple vanity but then grows and changes over the years to become an all-consuming struggle. It's a book that offers truth and clarity on how you – an intelligent, successful woman - ended up in that struggle but more importantly, how to find your way out.
