Turn Your Problems Around ... Solutions Are Yours by Janice Taylor, Self-Help \/ Weight Loss Artist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Do YOU want to look 5 pounds thinner, <\/strong>be more confident, and feel happier than you do right NOW?<\/p>\n

Say YES and then read on and follow Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a>‘s brilliant ‘be thin’ strategy!<\/p>\n

True or False:\u00a0 Good posture instantly takes off 5 pounds !!! <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Stand erect and your clothes will hang gracefully on your body, you\u2019ll look five pounds thinner, and you are sure to feel more confident.<\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t believe me, take a look around the office, the cafeteria, the department store, or the line at the grocery store. Notice how people sit at their desks, how some hunch over their meals, slouch, stoop, droop, slump, sag and hunch!\u00a0 Who looks more confident and elegant? Do you believe me now?<\/em><\/p>\n

In addition to looking better, you\u2019ll sound better. When you stand straight and maintain good posture, your chest stays open on the \u2018exhale,\u2019 your diaphragm automatically opens and rich, mellifluous tones emanate from your throat. Pretty cool, yes?<\/em><\/p>\n

The way you stand greatly influences your state of mind. <\/em><\/strong>
\nHappy people tend to stand up straight.<\/p>\n

Depressed people tend to slump.<\/p>\n

And happily, if you are feeling depressed, you can change your state by standing and breathing deeply and fully. Just the physiology of an erect body, sends happy signals to the brain.<\/p>\n

Review:
\nIf YOU Want to Look 5 Pounds Thinner Today, then …<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Stand tall and erect!
\n2. Speak in rich tones.
\n3. Smile.
\n4. Breathe.
\n5. Appear 5 pounds thinner! …<\/p>\n

…\u00a0 Sometimes it’s just that simple!<\/p>\n

BONUS EXERCISE:\u00a0 Here\u2019s a simple exercise that can help you to stand tall and walk gracefully with confidence: <\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Place a book on top of your head.<\/p>\n

2. Place one leg in front of the other and be sure to keep your head elevated and your neck elongated (pretend you have the neck of a giraffe or an elegant swan).<\/p>\n

3. Move your arms in the opposite stride of your legs.<\/p>\n

4. Walk back and forth with the book on your head.<\/p>\n

5. Focus!\u00a0 Straight ahead for a straight posture.<\/p>\n

6. Feel light.<\/p>\n

7. Be \u2018lite!\u2019<\/p>\n

Spread the word \u2026 NOT the icing!<\/em><\/p>\n
