What if the secret to losing excess weight wasn’t in extreme fasting, a new diet, or excessive exercise? What if all you had to do was see it in your mind first?
It was this mind-body practice that helped Jon completely transform his life and drop the huge amount of excess weight he was carrying. He was over 400 lbs, lacking energy, and seriously unhealthy. He tried diet after diet only to end up gaining more weight. It wasn’t until some fateful event in 2001 that Jon decided to dive into the real reason he couldn’t lose weight. This led him down a path of self-discovery and into the power of visualization.
In this interview we dive deeper into the reasons and the causes of why our body gains weight and stores fat, and the many mind-body techniques we can use to shift stubborn weight.
