So, in this month of February of Extreme love, show self-love and take a step forward to reach your health goals. Take the time to get to know your subconscious and how it can help you shed those extra pounds— read on as we dive deep into a world of unknown potential!

YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS CAN SHAPE YOUR REALITY

The power of your subconscious mind is immense. It's been said that your thoughts become things, which is certainly true regarding weight loss. Every thought that passes through your mind has the potential to shape your reality and cause you to move closer or further away from your goals.

For example, if you constantly tell yourself that you're too busy to meal prep and exercise, eventually, your subconscious will believe it, and you'll start to live by that belief. On the other hand, if you remind yourself of your end goal and why you're doing this in the first place, your subconscious will be more likely to make it happen.

WHAT DO STUDIES SAY?

Recent research demonstrates how a simple mental visualization method may significantly increase weight reduction. It found that the more vivid and realistic the mental images you create of your body, the greater your chance of reaching your desired weight.

Another study says that losing weight may depend on your ability to control your brain's reaction to eating. In other words, it's not just about suppressing your cravings but learning how to control them.

Researchers suggest that by training your brain to resist cravings, your subconscious can help you stick to a healthy diet.

START TALKING TO YOURSELF

The power of internal self-talk is a great tool that can help you stay focused and stick to your weight-loss goals. Whenever you feel tempted to indulge in unhealthy snacks or skip your workout, take a moment to give yourself encouraging words.

Remind yourself that you have the power to make positive changes and reach your goals. Use positive affirmations to keep yourself motivated, such as "I have the power to reach my goals" or "I can make healthier choices and take better care of myself."

STRATEGIES TO UTILIZE THE POWER OF YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND

  • Be mindful of your thoughts and focus on the positive.
  • Create a vision board filled with inspiring images to help keep you motivated.
  • Create a positive self-talk mantra that you can use whenever you feel discouraged or tempted to give up.
  • Set short-term goals and reward yourself for reaching them.
