Getting going part 2… please do not read this till next week or after you are comfortable with the ideas in part 1… Drink! An odd one when we’re talking about weight loss but drinking plenty of water will definitely help you lose weight, (caffeine and booze don’t count though) your body burns fat much better when well hydrated, as well as making your muscles look full and tight, it’s....

This is the time around and after the end of your periods. Strictly speaking the menopause is after the last menstrual period. This is usually around the age of 51. Changes can start to take place many years in advance of this, and women can start to notice more erratic cycles and heavier bleeding in their late 40s. This is due to hormone changes resulting in a dramatic reduction of oestrogen....

I am a glutton. It's the passion of us 7's on the Enneagram (also perhaps Scanners or Renaissance Souls?). It may not be about food (although that fits for me) but a glutton for anything -- experience, doing, seeing, touching, hearing, learning, etc.. I can feel like a giant mouth searching for things to CONSUME. Which can be really, really fun, if I keep coming back to the place of "Nothing....

In time it’ll seem less painful. Everyone goes through it. You’ll grow out of it. Oh yeah! If you’ve ever had your heart torn out and thrown on the floor, you’ll remember how empty those phrases sounded at the time. You might know it’s true, but you don’t really believe it because of how you feel at the time. Relax because I’m not going to give you nice....

"Sticks and Stones may hurt my bones but words will do no harm." Balderdash! Words are infinitely more powerful than sticks and stones. You can use words to hurt or you can use them to heal Words are neurotransmitters which generate very powerful reactions and sometimes long term affect in the people at whom they are directed. And when we learn to use words with exquisite....

Three is the magic number By focusing extra attention on what we are doing and accomplishing with our time, we can both achieve and find time ‘to do’ more of what we love. I first explored the idea of ‘done’ lists when working with American life coach Michael Neill, probably my most productive period yet. You see, I’m a ‘lists’ kind of guy. Preparing for a meeting, make a....

It’s 9 a.m. I’m back from dropping off my daughter at school, and it’s time to work on My Novel, the one that I’ve talked about writing for years and have actually been working on for four. I’m so committed to writing this opus, I’ve downscaled my life, shrunk my coaching practice, and stopped saying yes to many outside commitments. But by 9:30, I’ve already checked my e-mail....

About the whole law of attraction stuff? Whether it's Abraham stuff or Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill or now The Secret? It's that, in me, it encourages my small self to rule the show. I find myself attracted to these ideas (pardon the small pun) but then my scritchy, controlling, to-do list, hurry up and gulp the world self gets all stoked. It rubs it's little lovely hands together and....

We all practice living our values. We practice democracy. We practice yoga. We practice loving kindness toward ourselves and others. The interesting part is that somewhere along the way the idea was introduced that "practice makes perfect." Well, I'm here to tell you, that's hogwash. Bull hockey. The cart before the horse. Practice is learning in motion. We don't get done with learning or get....

Exercise during pregnancy is ideal for women at low risk, who were already exercising before pregnancy, but it is not a time to start if previously no exercise was taken. During pregnancy you should be aiming to maintain rather than improve your fitness, which in practice means reducing your exercise intensity and volume to a level lower than before. This will not lead to a decrease in fitness....

One of the most common reasons people give for not being able to lose weight is that they simply don’t have time to do all the things that they're supposed to do. Now you might be a bit like that and I know that your day normally starts off with good intentions. You know, you have your plan and that works right up until you get out of bed. Then the other things kick in, the kids....

How often do you change your lion? This summer, which was supposed to be a quiet one to let me recharge my batteries has turned out to be one of the busiest periods ever for my private practice. Then, right in the middle of it I was offered the chance to work in the middle east at very short notice. It was a wonderful opportunity and my heart jumped at the chance even if my body wasn’t so....
