The real problem with negative self-talk is not that it creates

irrational ideas, but that it reinforces the irrational ideas

that you already have.

Healing negative self-talk starts with putting each specific thought on paper so it exists tangibly in the world. This creates a more realistic perspective that allows you to more clearly see the messages that you’re up against.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

In 2009 I weighed more than 220 pounds (60 pounds overweight) having just relapsed from a conventional calorie-restriction, exercise-heavy diet. I was a sugar addict and borderline diabetic with high blood pressure. !This was the third or fourth struggle (and failure) with trying to lose fat and maintain my progress and I was fed up. !Instead of trying yet again, I decided to radically change my approach by challenging the conventional wisdom I was following. I came across a few authors talking about ancestral health, followed their advice and saw great initial success. I was amazed at how easy it was and how great I felt. !During my journey, I continued to run into psychological roadblocks and finally was derailed after getting all of the way down to 170 pounds. After another relapse, I decided to reorganize how I was approaching eating based on things I had learned through personal testing, and most importantly I started focusing on the mindset and psychology of the process. !After finding the right mix of nutrition and psychology I dropped to 162 pounds (my current weight) and haven’t looked back. I enjoy a better body, better sleep, better skin, and better performance and I’m committed to helping thousands of other people do the same.
