Here’s the difficult truth: Over 75% of women overeat because of emotions and a lack of understanding how the brain works with food. Also, weight loss uncovers new sets of problems that we don’t know how to manage and we can gain the weight back because we just don’t understand how to keep it off.
Tracy is a very highly-trained specialist in this area and has led many workshops and groups. Sh has helped hundreds of women to stop the cycle. She has created this program based on the latest available material. She will give you the key philosophy; and, most importantly, the experiential transformation thru the group process that you absolutely need in order to change.
The program provides you with the tools and strategies; great group support; and, close one-on-one guidance with Tracy to finally start to break-free from the self-sabotaging patterns. If you’ve tried to do this alone – try our group instead — you’ll feel loved, safe and supported; and, most of all – create the changes you need for a lifetime.
Once you start to apply the guidelines and integrate back into your right alignment, the weight begins to come off naturally without force and control.
