"Does The Thought Of Weight Loss Strike Fear In Your Bones? Are You Here Because You’ve Tried One Too Many Times To Lose That Weight Without Success?"

It's Not Fun Is It?

(Yes, there IS a better way, using Hot Yoga!
... Read On. You’ll thank me later )

Thursday 10.15am.

The fact is, most weight loss programs churn out the "same old, same old" stuff year after year, cleverly re-branded or pitched by some "expert celebrity".

And year after year these same programs fail us ....

Why?

Because they only EVER work temporarily.

Don’t let the thought of weight loss scare you into failure before you’ve even started. Put that New Year’s Resolution aside and do something powerful that WILL make a difference - PERMANENTLY.

What you need is sustainable shape change that you can fit into your lifestyle - without having to "think" ... or, god forbid, count calories.

Stick with me and I'll show you how!

How I Lost 30lbs!

I have a story to share with you that I am pretty sure you’ll appreciate. And then I’ll get round to how it can really help you.

You may not know this but for a long time I was 30 pounds overweight. So I do feel qualified to talk on the subject (especially after having failed so many times – but of course my story has a happy ending!).

Later on I’ll also share what I do now on a daily basis to keep myself the shape I want to be (remember, I wasn't always that way!) and how I nourish myself.

So back to that (true) story! I was actually quite skinny when I was growing up. I went to university to study dentistry and this is where my body shape really started changing.

For years where I tried different diets and approaches and my weight went up and down like a yoyo.

To tell you the truth I don’t really think it’s useful to talk about why things happened. While ancient history is interesting, it’s probably not going to make a difference to how you move forward.

In fact it’s really immaterial when it comes to YOUR body shape.

So back in 1992 a friend of mine said she wanted to go on a “diet”. We decided we would do it together.

A Little Word Of Warning

Here’s where I tell you what I did back then. Stick with me because this is it’s actually NOT really where I am ultimately leading to!

OK, my friend and I decided to loosely base our little experience on food combining principles.

(If you know anything about food combining then you’ll know that you’re only supposed to combine certain foods with other certain foods. Remember, this is NOT about YOU doing food combining … OK now let’s get back to the story …)

With the benefit of hindsight I can see how this benefited me greatly in:

1. Kick-starting my metabolism;
2. Triggering significant shape change;
3. Allowing me to tune into my food wants and needs; AND
4. Reintroducing me back to a sustainable eating plan.

Probably the most significant thing that happened was finding out that I was somehow learning to listen to my body once again.

Little did I know that in several short weeks, not only would I lose 19 pounds (yes, really!) but I developed the sense of knowing:

• EXACTLY what I will feel like even just thinking about eating anything, at any time
• EXACTLY what I want to eat, what my body wants or NEEDS to eat.

These skills or tools stay with me all these years later. I use them every day. I even use it when I am somewhere that is serving foods that I know won’t be best for me.

Eating The Food You Love
And In Almost Unlimited Quantities?

It Sure Had Me Excited!

Knowing what I know (and what I will share with you here) means that I can still consume foods just for the sheer pleasure of it without guilt – as long as I know the consequences and that I can be true to that inner voice.

By the way, my friend and I followed our plan to the letter. I just LOVED the fact that it was based on ALL the foods I loved and more importantly there were only a few times in that whole period where the amounts of food were limited. Now doesn’t that sound like the kind of plan you’d like to feel empowered with?

The results were great. In fact something completely unexpected happened. After only 3 weeks following my personalized program I felt great. I looked forward to eating well and enjoyed watching my shape change (and my body slim down).

Then I discovered Hot Yoga (I wish it had been sooner!) ...

Hot Yoga Became My "Secret Weapon"!

Now let’s fast forward almost 10 years to when I discovered hot yoga. And WOW, I can only wish that I had the power of hot yoga to accelerate my shape change even more back then.

My approach to diet and nutrition now has also become waaay more sophisticated (but still simple). No longer the “blunt instrument” that it was in 1993.

But the truth is, as you’ll see further down this page, is that you need an approach to weight loss that is balanced and is not simply based on a "diet" and "doing some yoga".

Most people you talk with will say that you have to make sure the energy you expend is more than you consume.

It’s simple math.

If only it were that simple. You will NOT get sustainable change from a "one-dimensional" approach where you are just balancing energy in and energy out because that’s not all there is to it ...

You probably won’t get it from a "diet-driven-only" approach.

You probably won’t get it from an "exercise-driven-only" approach.

And I am sorry to say you won’t get it from some mysterious "mind-power-only".

Weight Loss Is NOT
Some Kind Of Punishment

Nor is it depriving yourself of delicious, vital foods. (Quite the contrary … later, baby, later!)

And thankfully, it doesn't require a punishing schedule at the gym.

I believe the problem is simple ...

We think too much! (And I absolutely know how strange that must sound.)

Really, you deserve a LOT more than having the latest weight loss fad dangled in front of your eyes, as if it will be your salvation. “Yes, try our new high-in-octopus-ink-extract-diet-broth!”.

I know you don’t want to be bamboozled with false scientific claims. I am not just guessing this stuff you know.

Last year I ran a BIG survey where I asked thousands of people what they would MOST LOVE in a weight loss program.

Here's what they told me overwhelmingly: "Don't make me think".

I think this is a reflection of the huge range of choices you *could* make ... most of which simply won't be sustainable anyway.

OK, so let's get to my approach.

I'm going to outline for you a set of principles that you can follow RIGHT NOW that will make all the difference.

They are not difficult, and certainly once you follow them, they don't require any extra thought.

The best thing about them is that they are SUSTAINABLE!

The Guilt-Free, No-Blame Diet

Oops, I said the word 'diet'! I'll tell you why I don't believe in "diets" later - but first ...

Understand this: You ARE perfect the way you are right now.

There is no point in beating yourself up about your current situation, or your habits.

Forget your history, forget what you think of yourself or your body, you are what you are now, and it's perfect.

There is a famous Turkish proverb:

"No matter how far you have gone down the wrong road, turn back."

There is no point in beating yourself up about your current situation, or your habits.

Take A Holistic Approach

We all know that to lose weight, get slim, tone up or get fit it’s going to have something to do with diet & nutrition, exercise and the old gray matter.

I've had sooo many people tell me “Just make it easy”, “I don’t want to have to think”, and “Don’t tell me it’s all in my mind”.

So let's look at this "holistically".

Just as yoga is a unity of body, mind and spirit, if you want to lose shape (or weight as most people say), you really have to have an approach that speaks to all 3 angles:

1. What you "put in to your body" to get your nourishment and energy;
2. How you use that energy; and
3. What your deep seated mental and emotional reactions are to it all!

I believe this is a a KEY PART of making SUSTAINABLE shape change ... and I call it "The Weight Loss Holistic Triangle".

I know this will be the difference that makes the difference for you!

The Holistic Weight Loss Triangle Is Key
To Sustainable Shape Change

Has anyone ever told you that you can "think yourself thin"? Geez, wouldn’t that be great?

I'm here to tell you that it's definitely NOT "all in your mind" - in fact there are probably some very simple things you are NOT doing that have nothing to do with your mind that will lose many of your pounds in a matter of weeks (ummm ... Safely and sustainably I might add).

Your mind is merely just ONE of the sides of the "Holistic Triangle".

You've probably heard the phrase: "Garbage in garbage out".

This is true of ALL THREE SIDES of the Triangle.

If any one of them is not correctly balanced, your weight loss will simply not be sustainable.

It's All About Energy

Losing the blubber, the fat, the excess shape, the ellbees, the kilos or whatever you want to call it, will require some thought about how you expend your energy, in the way you move and operate your body!

For most of us in most circumstances that’s a no-brainer really.

So why do so many plans just seem to be difficult?

Because doing what you do right now IS the easy option. The reason why most people find it hard to move beyond where they’re at is because their habits and their lifestyle has largely become ‘set in its ways’.

In order to make your changes sustainable, you’re going to want a plan that helps you manage your energy on all 3 sides of your own “Holistic Weight Loss Triangle” at least for the time it takes to create your own automatic habits and break the ones that aren’t serving you right now!

It’s safe to say that something’s going to need tweaking ...

... Because whether you like it or not when it comes to "burning the fat" all 3 sides of the triangle are fundamental in your own weight loss equation.

And together, we’re going to find the right trigger to your weight loss so that you can start to balance out your approach ... and before you know it, you’ll be the shape YOU want to be.

This IS Your Life!

The key to weight loss is sustainability!

Get off that weight-loss roller coaster.

And to do that, you WILL need automatic behaviors that make you successful.

The most important thing however, is that they HAVE to be simple enough that you CAN stick to it AND fit into your lifestyle.

I know one thing for sure, when I do something the rules have to be clear enough that I KNOW what I am doing, and at the same time they MUST be flexible enough to fit into my needs.

The other thing I know is that life is simply not predictable! So you need a program that has flexibility BUILT IN that caters for ups and downs and the changeable nature of life.

"Diets"? Oh Puhleeese!

I think if you’re wanting to change your shape you’d be crazy NOT to examine what you eat.

But you do NOT need a "diet" to lose weight - in fact, I can show you how you *could* eat almost as much as you like ... and still lose weight! (OK, OK there are rules around that too!)

What you PROBABLY need is a review of your eating patterns and some simple changes to put in place.

Now, if you're considering hot yoga or you already practise regularly, then you may already know that hot yoga has this incredible ability to help shift your cravings and food desires. For me that happened automatically!

And if you’re anything like me then you may at times have been surprised by some of the healthy choices you have made!

All that stuff definitely helps ... but if you want to lose weight PERMANENTLY, then you DO need some extra simple and easy steps to make sure you've BALANCED all sides of your triangle well and once that's done, the pounds will simply fall away!

Throw Away The Scales!

Here’s a GREAT TIP!

Get rid of your bathroom scales. Hide them, give them away. Let someone look after them for you. They could be sabotaging your weight loss.

I can bet you that if you really think about it, you’re FAR MORE interested in "changing your shape, fitting comfortably into your clothing, even dropping a dress size or 2 and just feeling great" rather than seeing a lower number peering up at you from your bathroom scales.

It's fine to have goals ... but there are much smarter ways of measuring success and frankly, scales don't cut it.

Don't use the scales!

"I Have To Run 15km Every Day?"

Haha, I just put that in to see if you were still paying attention!

But there IS a serious side to that statement.

Some people will have you believe that to lose weight, you MUST exercise for hours on end, each day in a grueling, punishing exercise regime that would would scare the pants off of us!

It's simply not true.

There are a couple of really KEY things you must do:

1. Activate your fat-burning enzymes each day. Clue: They are NOT activated if you are sitting down.
2. Practice Interval Training. A specific type of interval training (repeatedly moving between Aerobic and Anaerobic activity and rest) is proving to be light-years ahead of any other activity when it comes to strength training and conditioning - which are both important factors in ... you guessed it, weight loss.

(Another clue: Hot Yoga has got to be one of the best activities for interval training - IF you are doing it correctly and understand how interval training works.)

Don’t Eat Anything With A Health Claim!


The way food has been "manufactured and marketed" over the last 200 or so years should have anyone quaking with fear.

If you are serious about weight loss (look, can I call it "shape change" from now on?) then you only really need a couple of "eating rules":

1. Eat freshly collected, local organic produce
   (check your local farmers' markets)
2. Eat a substantial amount of #1 in raw form
   (clue: Salads can be mostly raw!)

No labels to read, no calories to count, no "low GI messages" to look for, no long lists of nutritional "claims" ... and NO "brand spin" to decipher.

Here's Nature's best "health claim"!
(Note the distinct lack of labels!)

(I'm vegetarian by choice for many many years by the way, but this shape change system DOES NOT require you to be vegetarian, I promise. Just so you know!)

So there you have it - let's summarize those principles again for you below ...

1. Free yourself from guilt and blame! Going over why and how you got where you are now, is FAR LESS IMPORTANT than moving forward and making your changes. So, whatever it takes, move on!
2. Take a holistic approach. Anything less is unbalanced and can't be sustained. That’s where that all important ‘triangle’ comes in!
3. It's all about energy. Understand the triangle's "energy equations" and make them work for you.
4. Make everything fit YOUR lifestyle!
5. "Diets"? NO! Take a look at your EATING PATTERNS. That's what needs to change. No need to starve yourself (it’s dangerous and can actually make you put on weight). You CAN eat normal portions AND lose weight!
6. Throw away the scales! Measure your SHAPE and how you feel in your clothes. Nuff said.
7. Focus on Interval Training. No marathons required. Hot Yoga really works though!
8. Don’t eat anything with a health claim!
 I can't stress enough just how much we are BRAINWASHED on a daily basis by food manufactures who throw "claim after claim" at us. Ignore them and eat fresh, both raw and lightly cooked food (organic if you can) and your pounds will fall away. (It's healthier too - not just for weight loss ... but for LIVING WELL!)

So What Do You Do Now?

Now ... my guess is that you are here because you know, or have heard that Hot Yoga has a great reputation as a form of exercise that will help you lose weight ... oops ... change shape.

That is true.

I personally can attest to that!

And if you’re here, you also know that it’s probably because you’ve tried different approaches that may not have worked for you before.

It’s time for a change. To use a system that invites you to holistically, effectively and permanently change your shape!

And that’s where the ‘Holistic Triangle’ comes in.

Whether you already practice, or if you are just starting a practice, there are several key factors that make Hot Yoga an ideal PART of your system.

Yoga or however else you decide to burn your energy is just ONE side of your triangle and only PART of the weight loss equation.

One thing’s for sure. It is one of THE BEST ways I know to activate your fat-burning enzymes! And that’s one great way to lose shape!

You see, there's no point in setting yourself up to go to hot yoga or Bikram yoga 5 times a week without the right approach, because it may NOT make a dent in your weight loss (okay, okay, shape change!) goals.

Look I know that the Holistic Triangle is something I named that you may never have heard referred to before.

It is however the name I use to help INTEGRATE your body, mind and soul into your weight and shape change goals.

With my program "Easy Weight Loss With Hot Yoga" I walk you through a comprehensive approach that will take you step by step to SUSTAINABLE shape change! The Holistic Triangle is the key that you’ve been searching for.

In it I show you:

1. HOW to approach your yoga AND fit it into your schedule
2. HOW you combine your exercise with some practical, sustainable and nutritious eating rules and suggestions
3. AND making sure you have what YOU want firmly and clearly designed in your mind, so that you can move towards your a well-designed outcome ... with ease (I will show you how)

But more (much more) about that in a moment.

When you approach your body shape in an integrated way, not only is it easy and rewarding, … your shape change is just about inevitable!

So ... let’s not waste any more time ... and let’s make this easy for you.

Stop doing any more "research". Unless you are doing your research while power-walking, it won't lose you any weight anyhow!

I'm pretty sure you want something "easy and step-by-step" (because a ton of people told me in a survey!).

I can also save you time AND effort because I've already put all the plans together.

I answer all the questions you have about:

• When you should practice
  
• How long should you practice or exercise for
  
• What you should eat when you practice hot yoga for best shape-changing results
  
• What the best schedule to use is - what the best time to practise is for you and what works best
  
• What to do when you can't get to a studio class or if you don't have 90 minutes. Will your shape change anyway? What is the best short sequence for burning the fat and getting your goals?
  
• Do you get the same results if you are NOT in a hot room?
  
• What impact does the accuracy of the pose have on shape-change and losing the pounds? (there, I said it again LOL)

Anyway, back to the system… This is the SAME system I follow ... it works easily and I can tell you it works sustainably.

You won’t need any WILLPOWER. You just need the system.

So let me save you years of heartache and blind alleys.

When you follow my "Easy Weight Loss With Hot Yoga" system, I'll give you EVERYTHING step-by-step.

• No thinking required.
• Templates and schedules.
• Family-friendly meal preparation (yummy AND nutritious!). There are over 182 recipes in this fantastic 144 page downloadable manual.
