Vaporizing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a post from: Stress Relief

Fitness Boot Camp clients come from all over, often with low personal esteem that has been triggered by an emotional occurrence or stress related lifestyle.

Others are just aware it is time to join the weight loss camp to kick start a new improved healthy routine and are ready to be motivated to change their lives for the better.

Grief, unhappy relationship or even a medical condition all effect the way the body copes and reacts to a person’s mental state.

A FitFarms weight loss boot camp therefore has an holistic approach, with a personal behaviour plan.

It is not just about weight loss and fitness it also covers the client’s complete physical and mental well-being throughout the week’s course.

The trainers and personal mentors encourage a more positive relationship with nutrition and exercise and making sure the results are sustainable.

Past guests have all gained a greater level of self confidence and body image in addition to considerable weight loss.

This week FitFarms will be trying to encourage their past guest to rejoin the retreat by giving them a

Living Well Beyond Cancer is a post from: Stress Relief

OurWeddingUsher.com mobile app for wedding guests provides an easy way to share a wedding schedule, directions to the main venues, important people on couples story, and even alerts if a road closes just before the rehearsal dinner.

Wedding guests can create a collective photo album, with pictures taken from the iPhones or Android devices. Candid photos, shared by all wedding guests, are uploaded into one album, enriched with comments and wishes from all.

For Wedding Planners that are trendsetters for the industry, this is an opportunity to provide one more white-glove service for the wedded couple, and ensure a stress free event for all guests. OurWeddingUsher offers a beta program for the Innovators in the wedding industry, and wedding planners and innovators can sign up for The Usher Club.

The question we get a lot as wedding planners is how many ushers?. The general rule is one usher for every 50 guests. Now, we are changing the game. A personal usher for each of your wedding guests, via mobile technology said Ken Burns, External Relations.

If one of the wedding guests lost the map insert for the reception hall, one tap on the mobile app will show on Google maps what is the shortest route there, and when the reception starts, exactly. Who just toasted the couple – the mobile app section on snapshots of important people on the couple life gives the answer. There is optional social media integration, so a guest can even connect with the groomsman via Twitter, Linked or Facebook.

The wedding vendors can have a dedicated section on the mobile app as well, so if a guest really likes that wedding cake, disk jockey, wedding venue decorator, or wedding invitation calligraphy, just one tap on the iPhone will contact the vendor and ask for more information. Or follow them on Twitter.

Be that an iPad, iPhone, Kindle Fire or an Android tablet or phone, the content will be available online or offline for the native apps. A wedding guest will be able to browse the wedding guide even on the plane, with no connectivity, and arrive at the wedding fully up to speed on the details. The app has even a section for the Top 10 things to do in the city during the wedding weekend.

The native app will be released in May on iPhone and iPad, and early June for Android smartphones. A web enabled, accessible from all smartphones or browsers will also be available in May.

OurWeddingUsher.com

OurWeddingUsher.com was founded on a simple, powerful idea: wedding guests should be able to have the information needed for a brilliant wedding at their fingertips. We want to reinvent what wedding planners can do through the OurWeddingUsher.com mobile platform, made for a new kind of wedding experience and a new kind of interactions.

Learn more about OurWeddingUsher.com, how were changing the way guests engage with the wedding, interact and communicate and how you can be a part of it.

Both Zwoor Event and Zwoor Survey have free versions available, and will be available for the iPhone, iTouch, iPad and the Android devices. For more information, visit OurWeddingUsher.com.

No More Wedding Guests Lost between the Ceremony and Reception Hall – OurWeddingUsher.com mobile app gives each wedding guest a super concierge for a stress free wedding is a post from: Stress Relief

Life experiences of loss or trauma can result in feelings of anxiety, sadness, agitation and reactivity, as well as symptoms of PTSD (e.g., flashbacks, hypervigilance, and nightmares.) These experiences live in our bodies, as well as our minds and hearts, and can manifest in subtle or obvious difficulties with self-regulation, insomnia, an increased startle response and heart rate, etc. Yoga, and mindfulness practices working with the breath, can gently shift these patterns and begin to introduce a counteractive experience of calm and relaxation that allows individuals to re-inhabit their bodies with a growing sense of safety, strength, and stability.

Please call Deb at 999-2703, prior to registration to discuss participation and ask any questions. Register at 658-4990 or www.vtcyt.com

Class will meet weekly on Thursday evenings, 6:30-7:45.

Please note, class will not meet on Thursday April, 26th

Trauma Sensitive Yoga Series is a post from: Stress Relief

If you are like most people, you have probably tried everything to lose weight, only to put it all back on and often with interest too. This is because being fat is never really about the weight – but rather with your relationship with yourself, or the lack of it. Until you get this right, then no amount of gyms, diets, weight loss pills, surgery, doctors, nutritionists or personal trainers will ever fix your weight issues.

Rather than adding to the multitude of existing bandaid solutions, this workshop will take you on a journey of self-discovery. It will reveal the missing pieces in your weight loss equation, including the crucial mind-body-soul link. You will learn exactly how your current mode of living is keeping you fat despite your best intentions, and will for the first time, be given a 'choice' to break free.

The focus of the workshop is on you – a process that will require that you examine every area of your life and especially the way you perceive it - from your emotions, to your eating and exercise habits, to where and how you live. It also considers where you work and what you do, and the state of your relationships. Its key concepts revolve around change – a process which becomes easier as you begin to wake up to who you really are.

If you are truly sick of being fat then this workshop will provide you with a road map that will lead you from a body of pain and suffering, to a body of health and vitality. It involves a combination of theory and practical activities aimed at changing not only the way you approach weight management, but also the way you live your life.Why Attend This Workshop

Through attending this workshop, you will finally understand and be able to…

• Break free from band-aid solutions to weight management – no more diets! Instead learn the real secrets toward life-long weight management.
• Become truly empowered to achieve and maintain a healthy weight instead of relying on willpower which never lasts.
• Learn how to turn your obesogenic environment into a more harmonious environment which supports your ability to manage a healthy weight.
• Learn how to achieve a great work-life balance and decrease stress in your life.
• Increase your self-worth and take back your personal power again.
• Create a superior support network for effective weight management.
• Learn to live in the present moment & avoid negative emotions.
• Connect deeply with the real you, helping you to find meaning, purpose and direction in your life.
• Learn how to take control of your life and your actions – including your behaviors around food.
• Increase your energy levels and overall zest for life again.
• Reverse diabetes, metabolic syndrome, sleep apnea, diabetes and other lifestyle dis-eases associated with being overweight.
• Learn positive lifestyle behaviours which are essential to managing a healthy weight.
• Learn all of the tools and resources you need to get in shape and stay that way for life!
• And more!

What the Workshop is not…

… a one day sales pitch. We will not spend a day badgering you to sign up for more expensive follow through seminars or workshops. This is a one day – one off workshop, that aims to give you not only the understanding, but also the tools required to achieve long term weight management. With that being said, the workshop is not a magic pill, or in other words, you won't leave the workshop with a perfect body or a perfect life for that matter.

• Weight loss today has become a multi-billion dollar industry. Some of the many products and services on offer do assist long term weight management, but the majority do not (bandaid solutions). Unfortunately bandaid solutions have become increasingly common as providers capitalise on this increasingly lucrative market. Think about it, if all of the current solutions on offer to curb the obesity epidemic actually worked, then why are we still being getting fatter by the day?
• This workshop is different to any weight management workshop or seminar you have ever attended before. In short is about creating a paradigm shift – a new way that you look at and approach not only your own weight management, but also the world. Its key component lies around soul work and change – something that many of us avoid or do not understand, more often than not because it's hard.

The Why you are really fat – It's time to Wake Up Workshop is completely unique among the many weight loss workshops or programs out there. Instead of trying to sell you products that will help you to lose weight, it teaches you about the most powerful weight loss tool you can ever own – the essential and real you. This workshop is about putting you back in charge and control of not only your weight, but also your entire life too. There is simply nothing else like it.

How to reduce stress with Angela Stokes, episode #542 is a post from: Stress Relief

DailyEndorphin and St. Louis County, MN (Duluth) recently announced the results of a 12-week weight loss challenge. Total weight loss for county employees soared to nearly 1,000 total pounds, with many individuals losing 5 to 10 percent of their total body weight. The team-based wellness challenge, which ended on April 22, 2012, encouraged users to log their weight and exercise data on the DailyEndorphin platform in order to compete for weekly and overall goals. The weight loss challenge is one of numerous competitions and goal-based initiatives employers can track via the DailyEndorphin platform.

Challenge participants lost a total of 973 pounds and burned over 1.5 million calories during the challenge. Tiffany Carlson, St. Louis Countys Health Promotions Coordinator, said:

St. Louis County truly values the wellness of its employees, families and surrounding community members. We understand that it’s up to us as employers and community to help make the necessary changes in our current disease pattern. The County understands the power of disease prevention programs and was recently labeled as a “Wellness Pioneer”. St. Louis County has worked closely with DailyEndorphin over the past three years and applauds its effectiveness and stellar customer service helping to support and promote healthy, happy employees.”

Research shows physical exercise not only aids in weight loss but causes chemical changes in the brain to combat stress, depression, aggression,and even nicotine-addiction. Nicole Ranum, a participant in the challenge, said:

I wanted to thank you again for this challenge. When I quit smoking in December I really started to pack on some pounds, but this challenge really helped me feel motivated to get rid of it. The DailyEndorphin fitness dashboard is a really great tool. Seeing what I had been doing really made me feel proud. I’m down 15 pounds! I never thought I would get down this far. I have just a small way to go for my goal weight. It was nice to have something to focus on for the week that would help me reach my goal.”
