There is no denying the fact that the brain can do a lot of wonders to us. It is, after all, what makes you. But the brain’s power is not limited to making us function alone. Its power goes even beyond that, and the cliché "mind over body" is a perfect example of such.

Importance of Mind over Body

I have just written a new book titled "Mind over Body: The Key to Lasting Weight Loss is All in Your Head." The book tackles exactly that - mind over body. It teaches you of the importance of thinking and believing in what you want and who you want to become.

Here is a perfect example. A person who wants to lose weight yet thinks only of the obstacles ahead of him will not go far. In the end, he will not have a successful weight loss program because he focused on the trials and difficulties, which made it really harder for him to achieve his goals. If he had, in the first place, focused on his goal and what he wanted to get, then everything would have fallen into place, and he will be at his target weight soon. His brain would have worked for him, not against him, into making it easier to achieve his goals. Can you see now the importance of mind over body? What our brain constantly thinks will be manifested outwardly by our bodies. Like attracts like, never forget that.

Of Dieting and Exercising

Knowing now the importance of mind over body will make is crucial in reaching your goals. Here are some steps on how to achieve just that.

1. Identify Your Core Desire

2. Use The Power Of Your Intention

3. Make An Appropriate Action Plan

4. Apply Your Resolve and Make It Automatic

These four steps will help you stay focused on becoming slimmer and healthier. No diet program or exercise program will work if you do not employ these secrets in your life.

My book also teaches you the correct way of dieting and exercising. It also teaches you about metabolic rates and caloric intakes and how these two can affect your weight loss program.

But your mind should be your greatest ally when it comes to losing weight. What is great about the teachings in this book is that it is not only applicable to weight loss programs alone, but it is very much applicable to our daily lives.
