Lose Weight, Gain Back Your Life 2

Losing weight has nothing to do with will power or lack of. Fanatical Dieting, Emotional Eating and Conditioning are the 3 most common patterns for obesity. I have mentioned in past articles of a highly successful technique that I use with clients and in my workshops. Remembering that all you need do is to DO IT!

It often works where nothing else will, usually rapid, long lasting and gentle, no drugs or equipment involved, easily learned by anyone and can be self applied. As Emotional Eating is the second most proven reason for obesity, I think this should be the first place to start, and it may well then work on fanatical dieting and conditioning.

The method is EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUE, made of a set up, basic recipe and Affirmation Statement.

THE SETUP

The most important part of the technique is the setup. To do this we say an affirmation whilst tapping or rubbing a particular spot. For the purpose of this exercise I am going to show you the karate chop set up. If you have a look at your hand, palm facing you, look at the side of the hand from the top of the pinky finger down to the wrist. Just above the wrist is a flesh part where one would normally do a karate chophave you found it. If so this is the area you will tap using your pointer and middle fingers. Okso now that we have all of that out of the way I want you to tap you karate spot for practice.

BASIC RECIPE - The Meridians

The meridians are as follow, try and find it on your body as I mention it. Practice a little so you become familiar with them.
1. Eye Brow this is the beginning of the eyebrow above the nose
2. Side of Eye this can be found the bone at the end of the eyebrow
3. Under Eye on the cheekbone under the eye
4. Under Nose- under the nose above the top lip
5. Chin the crevasse between the lower lip and the chin
6. Collar bone just under the collar bone
7. Armpit halfway down under the armpit
8. Thumb under the nail of the thumb
9. Pointer finger bottom side of the nail facing the thumb
10. Middle finger - bottom side of the nail facing the thumb
11. Little finger - bottom side of the nail facing the thumb
Repeat 1 to 7

Whilst tapping your karate spot as mentioned above you say an affirmation as listed below.

Using the Emotional Freedom Technique:

* SET UP followed by the statements below

* BASIC RECIPE

* AFFIRMATION STATEMENT

Then repeat the exercise again for each statement. You may feel you dont need to do some of the statements, however, experience has shown me from workshop participants and private clients that undertaking each one will be of great benefit. You will see that all statements starts with Even though.and ends with I deeply and completely accept myself or similar, add this ending where done is provided.

Discovering A Rainbow Vacuum Cleaner

As more and more vacuum cleaners hit the shelves every year, we as consumers are left wondering which way to turn; which model will deliver the most efficiency at the most affordable price? Of course, we all want a vacuum cleaner that will provide us with the cleanest homes; eliminating as many germs as possible.

The Rainbow vacuum cleaner, one of the most popular vacuum cleaners in history, boasts a long and lucrative record of bringing the height of clean to homes internationally. Born the Rexair vacuum cleaner in 1929, the Rainbow vacuum cleaner earned its new name in 1955 when improvements were made to the original design. Since then, the Rainbow vacuum cleaner has continued to earn a reputation worldwide for its powerful method of cleaning.

A sleek, compact, and bagless system, the Rainbow vacuum cleaner uses water instead of a traditional bag to contain dust and debris that is picked up during the cleaning process. The debris is trapped in a water reservoir to prevent redistribution to the room; the simple emptying of the reservoir following vacuuming readies it for its next use. The vacuum portion with two operating speeds has adjustable height ability to deep clean carpets or vacuum hardwood. The powerful motor, in combination with two operating speeds, allows the Rainbow vacuum cleaner to clean carpet, floor, and even the air. The HEPA filter thats included in the vacuum keeps your home nearly 100% dirt, dust, and allergen free. Further, the inclusion of attachments allows you to tackle any job in your home.

The Rainbow vacuum cleaner is more than just a household appliance; its a reputable and dependable investment in the maintenance of your home. The company that makes the Rainbow vacuum cleaner stands solidly behind its product providing a variety of certifications and warranties upon purchase. So while the price may be more than you would ordinarily expect to pay for a vacuum cleaner, you only have to pay once. Because the vacuum cleaner found at your nearest retailer may be cheaper but, chances are, youll be paying for another one in a short period of time either because it couldnt hold up or it lacks the features you need to clean your home thoroughly.
