I've heard it all my life, a simple phrase that seems to explain the impossible: Mind over matter.
I just watched MTV's "I used to be fat". One of the Covenant trainers, Chris O'Hearn, coached a beautiful young lady from Seymour. In it, they talked about something that I had never really thought about before: Making your mind be a part of your exercise/weight loss routine. i,e Getting it in your mind that you CAN do it.
It really opened my eyes. It may sound ridiculous but I seriously had never thought about putting my mind into doing anything about my weight. I associate losing weight with emotion or what's in my heart but never, ever my mind.
I thought it was a very informative and inspiring show from a network that I had given up on many years ago (I stopped watching when they got rid of the Moon Man opening every hour. Yeah, I'm that old)
So from here forth, I'm going to have to start thinking of this as doing something for the MIND, BODY & SOUL.
good insight and chris is a good trainer and mind coach
