Juice is the stuff of manifestation.

“If A equals success, then the formula is: A = X + Y + Z. X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut.” – Albert Einstein

Juice is the stuff of manifestation. You are always creating what you most love by focusing your attention upon it. The trouble most of us have is that we are unaware that we are creating what we most want every second of every day. What’s more, we are setting ourselves up to enjoy even more by ruminating, worrying, and fretting. All that attention makes the juices flow – the juices of fear.  Juice is the stuff of manifestation.

Perhaps you, too, read the article revealing that Matt Hoover (Season 2 Winner of NBC’s The Biggest Loser) gained back most of the weight he lost on the show!

My guess is that without the isolation, the cooks, and the drill sergeant personal trainers, he couldn’t keep up the strict regimen.

“When I got home, I quickly realized I wasn’t equipped to deal with the temptations of the real world.”

In January 2009, Matt discovered a 4 CD Hypnosis Program created by Dr. Roberta Temes, who is on the Department of Psychiatry at the SUNY Health Science Center Medical School and the editor of the first hypnosis textbook used by thousands worldwide in medical schools.

A meta-analysis published in The Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology (1996) reveals that hypnosis with a credible practitioner, “can increase weight loss by an astonishing 146% over the long term.”

I prefer to feel strong and capable so when a study comes out that shows me how I can increase my chances of staying healthy through cold season, I'm all over it. Here's what they're saying:

What you imagine in your mind impacts what you perceive in the world.

New research from Vanderbilt University has found that mental imagery—what we see with the “mind’s eye”—directly impacts our visual perception. The research was published online June 26 by the journal Current Biology in a paper titled, “The Functional Impact of Mental Imagery on Conscious Perception.”

“We found that imagery leads to a short-term memory trace that can bias future perception,” says Joel Pearson, research associate in the Vanderbilt Department of Psychology. and lead author of the study. “This is the first research to definitively show that imagining something changes vision both while you are imagining it and later on.”

“These findings are important because they suggest a potential mechanism by which top-down expectations or recollections of previous experiences might shape perception itself,” Pearson and his co-authors write. Continue reading →
