Will This Work For You?
To change, you’ve got to rewire new habits. Having a “starting ritual” that overrides your negative habits and activates the front of you brain (your prefrontal cortex) helps you take immediate control of your thoughts and actions – allowing you to create positive new habits. In Neurologicial terms, this is called metacognition. For me, well it’s a game changing brain tool that I use each and every day.
Can I make those changes for you? NO!
Can I help you rewire your brain to create new habits that will last? YES
I get up each and every day working at making my life a better place to be and I want to be able to do that for you too!
I had to stop making excuses and start taking personal responsibility.
My journey!
I had to physically and visually get out of my own way, yes I mean physcially stand aside, and visually move away from my excuses. Physcially moving and visually anchoring helps you activate the front part of your brain (prefrontal cortex) which is in charge of decision making, strategic thinking, facing fears, learning new behaviours, and working towards realistic goals.
Could it be that simple? Not initially, I had to figure out a lot of what I teach myself. I trained in Psychotherapy, became a Master Practitioner of Neurolinguistic Programming, studied Mindfulness and Certified as a Personal Trainer all the while working at gaining a more indepth understanding of why we get stuck in habits and behaviours that don’t work out for us. While constantly researching how we can change behaviours with the least amount of added stress to our minds and bodies.
