How to Use Your Body to Improve Your Mind to Complete Projects & Follow Through

Posted on14. May, 2012 by admin2.

Do you LOVE to start projects, but have a hard time following through & completing them?

You can use your body to improve your mind to follow through and complete projects by moving from your fight and flight mode to a more relaxed state where you can take the time to think clearly, contemplate and follow through on your goals.

The principle we’re working with is that when you’re in your fight and flight response,  your entire back body shrinks giving you the greater advantage to react and run.

By lengthening our entire back body through a variety of forward folds, you are teaching your body to move into a more relaxed state and increasing your blood supply to your frontal lobes.  This will allow you to think more clearly, follow through and complete projects.

Here are a few basic and easy moves you can do right now.

1. While seated, massage your calf to your ankle, focusing on lengthening the back of your legs.

2. Forward fold on the wall. All the benefits of downward dog where you open up your entire back body.  Simply stand at the wall with your hands at your armpit level and walk back to where your hips are over your ankles.  Enjoy a few deep breaths as you reach your hips back into the middle of the room.

3. Basic forward fold, once you roll down, relax and soften your knees to enjoy a greater extension.

4. Downward dog -as you open your back body you can also enjoy the blood flowing to your frontal lobes.

5. Warrior I with clasping your hands behind your back and mindfully folding forward.

“” I’ve had eight sessions with Andrea for stress related issues and the results have been more than I could imagine. I’ve never been one to go for meditation, hypno-therapy or relaxation execises but I am loving it. Andrea makes personalized cd’s to help me at home and I can really see a difference in myself. I’ve learned how to recognize when my body is tense and achieve a state of calmness through the personalized meditation cd’s. I would recommend Andrea to anyone who needs help dealing with issues they can change through mind over body techniques. She’s AWESOME with a capital “A”

Andrea worked with me in 2003 on my self-esteem issues surrounding a relationship gone bad. I had friends to talk to about the breakup but the grieving process was long and difficult. I wasn’t sleeping well and when I woke up, my thoughts were immediately back on the breakup. I was also having a hard time at work because my thoughts k…ept betraying my recovery there too. By luck, I ran into Andrea Spence at a networking group. I never would have even thought to use hypnotherapy but Andrea’s program intrigued me.

Listening to my personal hypnotherapy sessions before going to bed each night totally improved my sleep. I got into a regimen of listening to the CD (iPhone now) as I fell asleep and would be under before the CD ended. When I awoke, I felt refreshed and I couldn’t remember why I even had all that angst! Of course, the thoughts returned later in the day but in shorter intervals and duration. Eventually, they were gone altogether.

As for my business, I had the most successful year of my real estate career. It was unbelievable – I’m really not kidding! It was like someone threw the switch on and I was consistently hitting doubles and triples. But more importantly, I recovered my self-worth which is…wait for it…priceless.

Look, hypnotherapy doesn’t work for everyone. You got to want it to work and you got to get consistent about working it. It’s no different than any other exercise program. But this one exercises and reprograms your brain the way you choose. If you ever find your mind needs a tune-up, I wholeheartedly recommend Andrea.

“You’re not dieting. You’re eating this way the rest of your life. That’s why hypnosis works!  I lost 45 lbs in less than a year and kept it off.  I can now fit in my old size 8 dress and I look better than ever before!”

~3 years later: I’m now a size 6, it’s been a perfect breeze staying healthy with my
new eating habits.
