Many people struggle with weight loss, it can be overwhelming and confusing. Yet, dozens are losing weight in a variety of healthy ways. What makes the difference between success or failure when it comes to weight loss? Let's take a closer look.
Bikram Yoga
There was a Bikram Yoga Studio next to my gym, and I thought I'd like to try it. However, the idea of doing yoga postures in a heated room -- didn't sound fun at all. Then, I was visiting my friend Wendy in New Jersey, who owns a Bikram Yoga Studio. And, I tried it. 26 postures, designed to scientifically warm and stretch muscles, ligaments and tendons in the order in which they should be stretched. The heat of the room allows for deeper stretching, and stimulates those sweat glands for maximum detoxification.

YOU INVENTED IT. NOW WHAT?

Choices for Life
As time passes our waist seems to thicken and our hair thins, nails are not so strong and teeth are more often in the glass by the bed then they are chomping into a thick juicy steak. By the time we think about what nutrition or a lack of it has done to our lives, we are at an age we maybe thinking "what the hell, it has not killed me yet".
Take Note
I would like to focus on something, that at first glance, may appear rather trivial. In fact it might seem so inane that you are wondering why I am even writing about it. It’s ‘note taking’. I learnt a very salient, if not embarrassing, lesson in my early 20’s. When in my first sales consulting role I turned up to a sales meeting with a prospective client with no obvious note taking materials. Up until that time I had never been told to take notes by my managers. I hadn’t thought about talking notes myself. I relied on my memory.
Practice, Practice, Practice then Play
In the sporting world it is expected that athletes make the time to practice, practice, practice and then go and compete or play the game. Through regular practice they hone their skills, behaviours and attitudes to ensure they are ‘match fit’ and ready to compete at the highest standards. A sports team needs to make sure that when they are in the thick of the game they can draw upon those skill drills and practice sessions to perform well as a team and perform well under pressure. When an individual athlete is neck and neck with a competitor racing for the finish line they need to know how to dig deep and draw upon their experiences, skills, and mental and physical reserves to cross the finish line first. This cannot happen without lots of conscious, purposeful practice.
