You already know how to lose weight: eat less and move more. Why isn’t it working? If only you could make yourself not eat when your mind is screaming for your favorite foods. In Meditate Yourself Fit, author Annamarie Jackson offers a way to prepare yourself physically, strategically, and spiritually to set yourself up for a lifelong, successful relationship with food. Jackson’s proposal rescues you from nagging food cravings. She teaches you how to believe deeply in your true self, so that you internalize your ability to live the life you really want. It offers a way to manage your mind so that you slowly adopt habits that make you happy. Meditate Yourself Fit takes you on a journey of transformation to realize the best you. Jackson’s experience as a technical writer enables her to present a systematic program you can follow—from preparing yourself mentally to maintaining the results you want. Her research skills add support from proven techniques (such as distraction and shifting your identity), while her experience with meditation, hypnosis, and literature help you to absorb the changes effortlessly. She provides options for everyone, whether you’re pressed for time or ready to commit as a matter of life and death.
