Last weekend my brain felt like this fellow in the superman tank. 

 It was awesome. Let me tell you about it.

 Last weekend I got to go home to Arizona for a special family event.

 My nephew personally invited me to participate in his baptism ceremony.

 When a sweet, young boy invites me, I go.

 That's not the point of my story though.

 This nephew's mom is my sister and I offered to help her get ready for the event.

 PICTURE OF MY AWESOME FAMILY: 

I got the awesome task of taking photos of my nephew, getting prints at Costco made, finding cute frames and editing and converting a PSD (A Photoshop File) small sign with his name on it.

 So, I had NO idea how to do this editing and PSD converting thing. WHAT-SO-EVER. 

 I knew what Adobe Photoshop was and my basic skills on the computer are pretty good, so I said, I'll figure it out.

 Two hours into working to figure it out, I still hadn't figured it out. 

 Then when I figured out one step, I got stumped on the next step.
My brain instinctively wanted to get a little frustrated.

 But I wanted to try an experiment.

 I talked back to my brain & the voices in my head that wanted to get frustrated and...
I told my brain: this is awesome.  You can totally figure this out. This is so fun.

 I don't want you to miss this significance of this.
Most people's brains are instinctively wired to feel overwhelmed, discouraged or frustrated when they can't figure something out.

 Many people's brains are in habitual neural pathway patterns to default to telling themselves they can't do something if it seems frustrating.

 I saw this ALL. THE. TIME. when I taught school. So many of my students would come up against something challenging and their default would be, I can't. 

 That's why I taught them that we didn't say I can't. We said, how can I keep working at it or trying? 

 This is what I teach my coaching clients.

 This is what I teach & practice myself.

 I, like so many people, have a brain that instinctively wants to default to discouragement. 

 So last weekend, I purposefully exercised my mind power to keep telling myself:
I can figure this out. I can figure anything out.  This is fun. How can I make this fun? This is an awesome opportunity to learn.

 Something happened when I re-directed my brain to these thoughts. 

 I TOTALLY FIGURED IT OUT.

 I WAS VICTORIOUS AND THE LITTLE SIGN LOOKED REALLY CUTE.

 AND MY BRAIN BLEW UP THE NEXT DAY WHILE I WAS IN MY EXERCISE CLASS.

 I could feel something happen in my brain and the only way I can describe it was like a serious epiphany of complete and utter belief and knowledge that I REALLY COULD FIGURE ANYTHING OUT.
It felt like that was actually who I had just become and was: I am a person who can figure anything out. And it feels like that's who I am today.

I invite you to notice the instinctive voices or default pattern of thoughts your brain tells you about weight-loss or anything you are trying to accomplish for that matter.

 I invite you to just notice, are they negative.

 Do the patterns sound like...this is hard?  I can't do this?  I'm never going to succeed? I don't know how to do it, might as well go back to my old patterns?

 If so, this why you haven't accomplished the thing.

 What if you were to start to practice thinking:

 What if I can figure this weight-loss thing out?

 What if I can figure out this ____________thing out?

 What if I can learn how to like eating food that my body really healthily thrives on?

 What if I can or what if it's possible to start to crave that great type of food?

 What if I CAN FIGURE ANYTHING OUT?

 Just notice what your brain may say to even reading these questions.

 Catch any negativity and say, what if it's possible....

 Re-direct your instinctive brain patterns to asking these questions and practice telling yourself: 

 I can figure anything out.

 What if you could BECOME a person who believes this and it's part of your neural pathway habit patterns?

 This is possible

 Because, you are a human and you have so many innate gifts and abilities, and one of these is being able to figure things out. The end.

 I love you.

 Have a wonderful weekend.

 Love, 
Candy
Hugs & loves to you.

How to Stop the Lies Your Brain Tells You About Weight-Loss

I've always been the type of gal who likes to do well at things. I didn't always have to get an A++, but I'm not going to lie, I did try and I like to work hard, I like to be successful and I have picked up on a lot of things in life sorta quickly, not all, but many. This is a pattern I've noticed about myself...I like to excel and I like to excel quickly. When something takes me longer than my instinctive brain thinks it should take me to excel, the more survival parts of my brain throw a bit of a tantrum and start to make me feel like, well, that I suck. Do you notice this in yourself? You love to do well. You love to be on your A-game. You love to succeed quickly? You do really well in so many areas of your life and when you don't do well quickly in an area of your life, your brain shames you or isn't very nice to you? If so, you just may be human. Has this happened to you with weight-loss? You're successful in so many areas of

3 TOP TIPS TO BREAK THROUGH WEIGHT-LOSS PLATEAUS

We all come to times in our weight-loss journey that we "plateau" & it seems like the scale has "stopped moving". This can feel confusing & or frustrating...but it doesn't have to. There can be many things involved when we plateau. I'm going to share the top 3 "PLATEAU PROBLEMS" I see with my clients & that I saw in my own journey. #1 PLATEAU PROBLEM: YOUR SELF-DOUBT THOUGHTS: We stopped believing weight-loss was possible. WE LOST SIGHT OF THE BALL. We got caught up in self-doubt, the old thought patterns crept in like: "This never worked before, this isn't going to work now." or "Oh man, I just fell off the wagon, I might as well eat all weekend & start on Monday".        ...or different flavors of these thoughts. WHAT TO DO INSTEAD:  **GET YOUR EYE BACK ON THE BALL. REFOCUS YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE FUTURE-DON'T FOCUS ON THE PAST. **THERE IS NO WAGON TO FALL OFF

EMOTIONAL BRAIN DRAMA AROUND FOOD IS LIKE AN MMA FIGHT INSIDE YOUR BRAIN WITH ITSELF.

Hello beautiful friends!!! Has your brain been occupied by "emotional brain drama" around food or anything else in your life this week?  The arguments, the negotiations in your head.... EMOTIONAL BRAIN DRAMA IS LIKE AN MMA FIGHT  INSIDE YOUR BRAIN WITH ITSELF.  IT'S ESSENTIALLY LETTING THE SURVIVAL PART OF YOUR BRAIN RUN THE SHOW INTO A SPIRAL OF SELF-DEFEATING RESULTS.  THAT PART OF YOUR BRAIN IS ONLY CONCERNED ABOUT SURVIVAL & CREATES LOTS OF TENSION IN YOUR BODY & EMOTIONALLY HIJACKS YOUR ACCESS TO RATIONAL THOUGHT IN THE PRE-FRONTAL CORTEX. WHEN YOU ARE FEELING TENSION IN YOUR BODY, THAT'S A CLUE THAT THE SURVIVAL BRAIN IS HEADING UP THE SHOW. This is important to know because:  EMOTIONAL BRAIN DRAMA SUCKS ALL OUR MENTAL & THEN PHYSICAL ENERGY UP...AND EXHAUSTS US. AND MY FRIENDS, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THAT WAY!! THIS IS WHAT EMOTIONAL BRAIN DRAMA CAN SOUND LIKE: "I shouldn't have said that to that person, s
