Are you making this common, but devastating weight-loss mistake? If you’re beating up on yourself for being overweight, berating yourself for eating too much of the wrong foods, or you’re belittling yourself for not exercising, you’re doing it all wrong! That’s the recipe for creating more of exactly the same pattern (or an expanded version of it!)

If you accept the Law of Attraction at any level, then this probably isn’t news to you. And yet, many people continue to focus on what they don’t want, and try to bully their bodies into submission when it comes to weight-loss. Are you one of them? Let’s find out…

–Do you look at your body in the mirror and feel anything other than joy and gratitude?

–When you look at yourself in the mirror, are you saying anything other than words of sweet adoration?

–Do you feel like your body doesn’t look good enough to wear certain kinds of clothes?

–Do you ever catch yourself thinking, “When I lose weight, I’ll …(fill in your dream here).”

–Do you ever feel like you aren’t deserving of love because of your weight?

–Do you ever look at your body and think of yourself as a failure?

–Do you ever threaten your body, saying things like, “If you don’t exercise you’re going to get SO FAT!”

If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these you’ve played the bully role to your body at one time or another. The more you’ve done it, the more of a bully you’ve been to yourself. So now let me ask you this: How is that working out for you?

Since you’re still reading this I’m guessing your answer is something along the lines of, “Not so well.”

Before I give you the key, I want to acknowledge your honesty and your courage for taking the quiz above and really look at what you’ve been doing up to now that hasn’t been working. This key that I’m about to share with you may sound really simple, but it’s extremely powerful, and played an essential role in my own physical transformation.

So if bullying your body doesn’t work, if shaming or threatening yourself doesn’t work, what does?

Love and Respect Your Body Now.

That’s it. Beautiful in its simplicity. You must be loving and respectful of your body if you want to recreate its image. This is not optional. Anything less is a deal breaker. If you want to return to your truly natural state of being thin, healthy and gorgeous, you must love yourself right now, just as you are.

Why? For one thing, you’ll get much greater cooperation with your body if you are coming from a place of love and respect for your body. Just as when interacting with other people, when you are coming from a place of love and respect you get a completely different response than if you are coming from a place of anger, hatred or disgust.

Secondly, in order to change what you are creating in the physical world, you need to change what you are creating energetically. You need to be in the energy of already feeling slim to create the slim body you want. You need to be in the energy of feeling good about wearing a short skirt in order to create the body that looks great in that short skirt.

As you’re reading this you might not be feeling the love for yourself that I’m describing, and that’s okay. The good news is it’s just an energy response. It’s like an old software program that you have running. You can change it, and you’d be surprised at how easily and quickly you can change it.

One of the easiest ways to change it is with a meridian tapping therapy such as EFT. EFT is so simple, children and beginners have great success with it. It’s also a wonderful tool for collapsing cravings and shifting your level of motivation on things like exercise – so instead of forcing yourself to exercise, you could feel inspired and excited about exercise. Instead of forcing yourself to avoid certain foods, you can feel attracted to foods that support your radiant health.

Do you know the one thing you must do to lose weight easily, healthfully, rapidly, and how to keep it off? Without this one secret, your weight-loss is destined to fail. Here are 7 unexpected tips to get you started the right way.

Tip 1: Love and Respect Your Body Now.

You must be loving and respectful of your body if you want to recreate its image. Many people, even some of the nicest people in the world when dealing with others, are cruel and ruthless when dealing with their own bodies. You can’t bully your body into submission. You cannot shame your body into becoming thin. It absolutely will not work, and your body will take it out on you at the first opportunity, often rebounding with even more fat than you started with.

Tip 2: Do No Harm to Your Body.

This goes hand in hand with Tip 1. If you want genuine, lasting weight-loss, nothing is more important than your health. It seems like a no-brainer, and yet when people are in the ‘got to lose weight now!’ part of the cycle of pain with their weight, they often are so desperate that they are willing to do anything to get results in their weight-loss, even doing something they know will be ultimately harmful. Don’t let this be you.

Tip 3: Nourish Your Body.

You cannot starve yourself and have healthful, lasting weight-loss. It goes against what it is hard-wired to do based on eons of humans barely able to subsist on the food that was available to them. Body fat will come back with a vengeance as your body tries to protect itself from the next ‘famine’ it thinks it’s just survived through. Lovingly feed your body an appropriate amount of wholesome, nutrient dense food.

Tip 4: Be Patient With Your Body.

It’s been patient with you for all these years. You owe it to your body to be patient and gentle with it. Your body fat didn’t appear all at once, and unless you are a master of manifesting things in the physical world instantaneously it’s crazy to expect that the excess weight will drop off immediately either. You can’t starve it off in a week with some fad diet; you can’t exercise it off in a week with some masochistic exercise routine. Stay encouraged. Stay focused. Understand that some fluctuations are normal, and have faith that you will succeed in reaching your weight-loss goal, especially if you follow these tips.

Tip 5: Notice the Difference Between Physical Hunger and Emotional Hunger.

Whenever you reach for food, check in with yourself to see if you are truly hungry. Sometimes we eat because the clock tells us to. Sometimes we eat out of habit. Sometimes we eat because it makes us feel emotions we want to feel. And sometimes we eat because we are actually physically hungry. Noticing why you are eating is the first step to making changes that support your radiant good health. If you are eating for any reason besides physical hunger, then you can use techniques such as EFT, emotional freedom technique (a kind of meridian tapping therapy) to collapse those emotional drivers.

Tip 6: Drink Plenty of Water.

When people don’t drink enough water, they often mistake the body’s thirst signal as a signal for hunger, and mistakenly use food to try to quench it. When that doesn’t work, some people will reach for even more food. Also, water plays an important role in eliminating toxins and eliminating stored fat, so following your doctor’s recommended daily intake of water is a great way to support your weight-loss.

Tip 7: Release Negative Emotions and Collapse Food Cravings with EFT.

Relief from unwanted emotions and unwanted food cravings is literally at your fingertips with the use of EFT, the emotional freedom technique, a kind of meridian tapping therapy. Using EFT shifts your energy out of the patterns and experiences that have kept you fat, and clears the way for you to return to your natural state of being thin, healthy, and gorgeous. Shifting your energy is the one thing you must do if you want to have rapid, easy, healthy weight-loss that is successful long term.

Bonus Tip: Get the Help and Support You Need.

For ongoing goals it’s essential to have the help and support that you need. As we fully enter the holiday season – holidays designed to fatten you up for the long winter and sustain you when there is no food available as was the case for eons of our ancestors – you need that help and support more than ever.
