An Inspirational Quote

"Love is, in fact, our most natural state. There isn't anything we really have to 'do' to access love in our lives other than slow down and become present enough to feel and experience it."

Richard Carlson

Are You Psychologically Reversed
by Catherine Carrigan, catherine@totalfitness.net

You want to lose weight, but you pass by your favourite donut shop and suddenly decide you need to pop in.

You would like to make time in your schedule to exercise regularly, but the last time you actually went to the gym, you happened to pick the most excrutiating class and ended up hurting yourself, insuring that you won't be able to do anything physical for the next several months.

You want to be successful in life, but part of you is afraid you will end up like your father or mother, financially well off but spiritually bankrupt.

These are all examples of psychological reversal. When you are psychologically reversed, one side of your brain wants one thing, while the other side of your brain wants something else. Here at Total Fitness, clearing psychological reversal may be one of the most important things we ever do for our clients.

It's the A in Attitude. B=ExAxRxN. Your body equals your exercise times your attitude times your rest times your nutrition. Even if you are not just trying to manifest a healthier body, but striving for something far more reaching like spiritual growth, you must clear the psychological blocks that have kept you from being 100 percent committed to achieving your goals. Let's take the common goal of losing body fat.

Part of you may want to shed the layers of psychological protection, unprocessed emotional baggage and chemical toxins that make up your fat cells. Another part of you may be perfectly comfortable hiding behind your self-imposed wall, not dealing with what is actually bothering you or leaving behind the artificial ingredients that starve your body of what it actually needs to build healthy cells. As I like to joke with my clients, the real question is who is winning - your higher self or your evil twin.

I clear psychological reversal with a simple process from kinesiology. We identify the emotions that are holding you back and find which acupuncture meridians are being affected. Many clients have layers upon layers of emotions that are holding them back. In these cases, I keep clearing the layers of energy until all parts of the brain clearly want the same thing.

How can you tell whether or not you are psychologically reversed?

1. If you want to lose weight but have not yet succeeded, you are probably psychologically reversed.
2. If you want to exercise regularly but keep picking workout programs that either don't work, injure you or that you absolutely hate doing, you are probably psychologically reversed.
3. It you want to succeed in any area of your life but continue to self sabotage by making the same mistakes over and over again, you are probably psychologically reversed.

What is unique about our work here at Total Fitness is the way we integrate fitness, nutrition and natural healing. Many people offer safe and effective workout programs or sensible nutritional advice, but few practitioners are able to do the critical point analysis necessary to identify where individual clients really need to work.

A critical point is a fulcrum. If you can identify the key areas around which your whole outlook hinges, you can unleash the full power of your ultimate potential. This is why and how we at Total Fitness are able to empower our clients to achieve such exceptional results - not just in health and fitness, but in all areas of life.

10 Common Emotional Patterns I Find When Clearing Psychological Reversal:

1. Fear of change.
2. Fear of commitment.
3. Fear of being sexually attractive.
4. Fear of feeling your emotions.
5. Not feeling good enough to achieve your goal.
6. Feeling like you don't deserve to achieve your goal.
7. Addiction to mental, emotional, and physical pain.
8. Self destructive and self-sabotaging emotions.
9. Expecting to fail no matter what you try.
10. Buying into other people's opinions, rather than living your own truth.

DVD Review
by James Williams, james@totalfitness.net

Title: Cancer - Your Doctor's Lack of Knowledge Can Shorten Your Life.

The title of this DVD by naturopath David Getoff takes no prisoners - and neither does the information you'll hear. In three hours David gives a thorough overview of many of the factors affecting cancer.

If you have been diagnosed with cancer and are willing to take responsibility for your life you need this DVD because it summarizes the information found by reading dozens of books. You'll learn:

1. What feeds cancer.
2. The foods to eat and the ones to avoid when recovering.
3. Which nutritional supplements to consider and whether they affect chemotherapy and radiation treatments.

For anyone not familiar with what medical doctors are taught about cancer, David and his fellow presenter, David Barold M.D., explain the existing medical paradigms. This is helpful because their explanations make it easier for you to communicate with physicians, demystifies the disease, and assists you in reclaiming your power to choose what's best for you. The two Davids also shed light on some of the limitations of the medical treatment protocols. David Getoff also shares a powerful example of the need for willingness and a desire to get well, which can only be done when both hemispheres of your brain want you to get well.

The information shared on this DVD is based on the results of scientific research, so get your pen and paper at the ready and be prepared to learn from a man who is highly qualified and passionate about helping you to be well.

You can purchase this DVD online for $77.75 at: The Price Pottenger Nutrition Foundation, or call the Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation at 800-366-3748 (in the US) or 619-462-7600.
