Maintaining a healthy body weight is critical for our health and well-being.
And yet SO many people struggle to lose excess weight and find a healthy balance of muscle, bone, and fat, even after years (or decades) of following the best diets, exercise regimens, and supplement protocols.
This is a beyond frustrating experience, so I made this quick video to explain why UNRESOLVED TRAUMA is so often the missing piece on a person’s weight loss journey.
Here’s what I’ll cover:
- A brief snapshot of the ACE Study and how it uncovered the link between excess body fat in adulthood and trauma/abuse in childhood.
- How the nervous system (specifically those fight, flight and freeze responses) plays a role in our difficulty maintaining healthy body weight.
- Why understanding the true roots behind an inability to lose weight can help a person heal and put an end to this struggle for good.
If you’re struggling to lose weight, you deserve this relatively silenced information.
(Imagine the dismay of the weight loss industry when its customers realize that they themselves hold the power to shift this!)
Here’s the TRUTH about why you may be struggling to lose weight and how to tackle the problem once and for all.
