Victoria's Body Shoppe Free Newsletter

VOL. 5/9/05



Table of Contents


I just returned from the East Coast speaking to an elite group of individuals that were scrutinized, tested and proven in their field to be the best at what they do. For the sake of identification, I am going to refer to the event as a: "Potential for Success Bootcamp"

I was the Mind/Body/Spirit Trainer that was selected for this event. I spoke, trained, led and educated these individuals as they allowed me access to their lives.

The program was self contained, held in an obscure location and was secured away from media disruption. Now you must understand these individuals have unlimited potential in their field if they stay focused, train diligently and follow the principles of the elite faculty they were trained by. The summation of the training was: Become Strong: Spiritually, Physically, Mentally and Financially.

What greater level of success would you rise to if you had the same tools and training techniques these young participants were given?

This week really, ask yourself,

  • Would I change my thinking, would I act, speak, react or feel different?
  • Would I wear different clothes, would I go to different types of places for enjoyment?
  • Would I treat people different, would I volunteer more?
  • Would I teach reading to under privileged kids?

Your answer is crucial. If you are not involved in giving, helping, saving and caring now, it will not change because of scale reduction or body shrinkage. If you were instantly ten pounds lighter, your mind would be the same, even though your pants size would be smaller.

This week our focus is on changing our mindset from SELF focussed to OTHER focussed.

Remember, you will be compensated in direct proportion to the level of service that you provide to others.

Enjoy the newsletter and have an Awesome Week!

Newsflash

Thank you so much to the Directors of the WNBA who allowed me the honor and privilege to speak to this year's rookie class of WNBA players last Friday in Chicago. (To read the news release click here.)

The WNBA understands the importance of proper nutrition for a long, healthy and injury free career for their players provides these young women with the best tools and information available to make the most out of their potential

Whether you are a 6'6" elite basketball player or a 5'2" soccer mom the outcome is the same... your nutrition effects your everyday performance!

To all of you attending the program in Chicago: You are all destined for greatness and I wish you great success in all your endeavors.




"The Life Force Body Balance product has changed my life with a feeling of more energy and a sense of calm knowing my body is receiving more vitamins, nutrients, amino acids and an overall heath and vitality in my daily regiment - and it's only been 9 plus short weeks!"
Bill H., California

"My hand joints cause me tremendous challenges. I tried several products, and after four months, I grew tired of taking so many pills. Then I was introduced to OsteoProCare through my chiropractor and I tried it for three months. By the end of that time, I suddenly realized my challenges were becoming less and less of a problem. I worked in retail as a cashier and was going to give up my job because of my hands, but after this I did not have to. I've been taking OsteoProCare since 1999 and still have great results. I wouldn't ever stop using this product! I even do my own yard, which makes me very proud. The liquid is easy to take and with the Body Balance and OsteoProCare, I get what I need. Thank you for such a fantastic product. Believe it or not, at 68 I even roller blade, so that makes me again say thank you!"

Weekly Fit Tip

How do you keep that enthusiasm? Here are 10 proven ideas to help overcome being just another fitness drop-out.

1. Hire a good personal trainer – even for just one tune-up session! A personal trainer – whether face-to-face our online – will examine your goals and progress and make suggestions about your fitness routine. He/she will direct you to activities that are appropriate for your current level and goals, and make sure you are executing each exercise correctly. You may find new and better ways to exercise – and a more efficient and productive routine.

2. Consider joining a health club. Join a YMCA or a local gym where the atmosphere is conducive to good hard exercise, and where you will find inspiration in any number of ways; music, classes, friends, environment. It is much easier to complete your exercise program if the doorbell and phone are not calling to you! When you can’t get to the gym, go home and use your videos, equipment, or just walk the neighborhood. But strive for the gym regularly!

3. Make a reasonable plan. Consider your goals - do they make sense? Set a series of small goals that you can reasonably accomplish in the next 2 - 3 months. These goals must be attainable, measurable and very personal. For example; "Lose a pound a week for 8 weeks" or "Go to class at they gym three times a week" or "Walk two miles everyday."
