- 1:01But today, I wanna do a very special video.
- 1:04I wanna talk to you about the number 1 thing.
- 1:09Is that a word?
- 1:10The number 1 thing that you need to heal your body.
- 1:14And it doesn't matter what symptoms or signs you are faced with or what diagnosis you receive from your doctors, you need this 1 powerful thing.
- 1:28Okay?
- 1:28We gonna call it a thing but it's not a thing you cannot touch it okay.
- 1:32But when you have it you understand it and you hold on to it, and you look at it on the regular basis, this is gonna motivate you to continue on this journey however the journey is.
- 1:50Uh, hard it is challenging, the obstacles that you might face, when you hold to that 1 thing, it's gonna really help you see the end of the tunnel or see through your journey so you can really eliminate your symptoms, get rid of these diagnosis, feel your very best because I know that's exactly what you want.
- 2:09Right?
- 2:10We don't wanna be sick in 20 24.
- 2:12We don't want to end the year being sick.
- 2:15We wanna have the vitality, this time, and have the energy.
- 2:18We wanna have, you know, know this weight loss if that's what you're looking for, we wanna balance our hormones, I wanna have better moods, I wanna have better sex drive, I wanna have increased libido, I wanna have brighter skin, we don't wanna lose our hair, we don't wanna look bloated and gassy, right?
- 2:35We want to really feel our best.
- 2:37We cup with energy and go to bed with energy, have better sleep, the energy again as I mentioned.
- 2:42It is very important for you to experience all of the above in order for you to have a healthy body, a healthy vessel.
- 2:50And when I work with my patients I really dig out of them what is the reason they wanna get healthy.
- 2:58Like I'm asking them why.
- 3:00So the number 1 thing that you really need to explore and hold on to and have as in your back pocket, like you're gonna carry it like a purse, is your why.
- 3:11What is the reason or reasons you want to get healthy?
- 3:15Because as we know, many people wanna get healthy.
- 3:18Like, who wants to be sick?
- 3:19We wanna have the stamina, the vitality, we wanna feel our best.
- 3:23And for a lot of people, they don't have a stronger why.
- 3:26Why do you desire to lose 10 pounds?
- 3:29Why do you desire to go out of perimenopause?
- 3:33Why do you desire not to take the birth control products?
- 3:36Why do you desire to to have a good night's sleep?
- 3:40What do you desire to perform at your highest best at your highest performance?
- 3:44Why?
- 3:45And when I ask patients this question, most often they cannot give me an answer.
- 3:49Well, I wanna be healthy.
- 3:51Being healthy is a broad term.
- 3:53We all wanna be healthy.
- 3:54Nobody wants to be sick.
- 3:56But what is your desire?
- 3:58Why are we doing all this?
- 3:59Because when you know your why and you can hold on to your why, you can hold that energy, and you're opening up the capacity to receive all that you need to heal your body, that's gonna carry you through.
- 4:13Because as we know it, we can start something and it feels hard, we give up.
- 4:18We can procrastinate.
- 4:19For instance, if you wanna lose 10 pounds and you have the tools and the resources to lose 10 pounds, no quick fixes, you actually have a road map and a plan to lose 10 pounds and it's gonna take you however it takes you to lose 10 pounds and you continue on this journey and you face challenges and there are obstacles.
- 4:37Your mind and your brain is telling you to give up.
- 4:40Right?
- 4:41Like, it's too hard because we all want the easiest way.
- 4:46But at the end of the day, hitting your body is not as easy as you think.
- 4:49It is more it's simpler, but it will cause for you to put in work.
- 4:54So when I talk to my patients, I'm like, the only thing that's gonna, I mean, help you through this food journey with you waking up and meal prepping, with you going to the shop at the supermarket and buying the groceries, reading the labels to make sure your food doesn't have herbicides, pesticides, preservatives, with you actually taking the supplements, with you doing intermittent fasting, with you doing a detox process, with you drinking more juices including more fibres in your diet, with you taking the herbs that we give to our patients for weight loss, you gotta have a why.
- 5:26Because at the beginning, we're all excited.
- 5:28It's something new, but specifically if you don't wanna take a medication, specifically if you do not subscribe to the conventional medicine ways.
- 5:36So at the beginning, it's, yeah, I'm gonna heal my body.
- 5:37I'm gonna do all natural, functional medicine, holistic medicine, natural medicine.
- 5:42And as a month in, a few days into the journey, you find yourself just getting bored.
- 5:49But if you have your why, if you have your why, it is a powerful why that's gonna hold you to the finish line.
- 5:57That's gonna make you honor your words.
- 5:59When you say you're gonna get up, you're gonna go exercise, you're gonna move your body, you're gonna do do that.
- 6:05When life is throwing circumstances at you, you're gonna put the circumstances, the challenges, those obstacles aside and you're gonna keep going.
- 6:12You you are not going to make excuses for things that are not working in your life right now because that's what we do.
- 6:19We look for excuses.
- 6:21We look for evidence to give up.
- 6:23But when you have a strong wind, it's like I have to do this.
- 6:25I wanna get rid of my blood pressure medications.
- 6:28I wanna get rid of my diabetic medications.
- 6:31Like, there's a why.
- 6:32I wanna wanna be healthy for my child I wanna run after my children.
- 6:35Right?
- 6:36I wanna be at my best when I go to work.
- 6:40If if you are growing and building a business, you want your brain to work, to have the energy, the brain function, the concentration, the motivation, that there are certain things that you want and it's only gonna happen and it's you can only sustain this journey if you know your why.
- 6:57So what I tell my patients to do in order for them to stay connected to the why is to have it on paper.
- 7:04Right?
- 7:05Like journal all the reasons why you wanna be healthy.
- 7:09Why?
- 7:10And yes, and I asked them to categorize it.
- 7:12Right?
- 7:12The first thing is you.
- 7:14Why do you wanna be healthy so you're doing it for you.
- 7:16Right?
- 7:16Because I know sometimes patients would tell me I wanna do it for my, you know, my kids.
- 7:21I wanna do it for my spouse.
- 7:23I wanna be put no.
- 7:24That's awesome to do it for other people, but I want you to journal the first in the first category.
- 7:29I wanna be rich healthy because of me, because I want a better career, because I'm tired of taking this medication, because I'm tired of having stomach pain, like, I'm tired of taking a medication and experiencing the side effects.
- 7:43I'm tired of seeing all the doctors in the world and getting told there's nothing wrong with me when I know for sure something is wrong with me.
- 7:50Now if you wanna have that wife for you or you wanna travel, right, or maybe there's a wedding coming up and you wanna feel your best, not only look slimmer in the dress, but you wanna feel your best.
- 7:59You wanna have that energy, and you want to know that why.
- 8:03And then years after that, you wanna be healthy because your children need you, your, you know, colleagues need you, and these are, like, indirect reasons why you wanna be healthy.
- 8:12But there are so many other reasons we wanna be healthy.
- 8:15Right?
- 8:15We don't wanna be sick all the time.
- 8:17So look at your why.
- 8:19Write it down.
- 8:20And when you do, when you're done, you're gonna put it on a piece of paper and you're gonna make copies of it.
- 8:27You're gonna make copies of it.
- 8:29You're gonna put copies on your fridge.
- 8:32I will have copies in your bedroom, like, copies in your bathroom.
- 8:36So the first thing you get you see when you get up is your why.
- 8:39I will have copies in your phone and save it as a screenshot.
- 8:43Like any any place that you're gonna go to and the first thing you see is your why.
- 8:48Because what this is gonna do is gonna help your subconscious mind absorb the why.
- 8:55Right?
- 8:55Like and when you do that, your brain will stop giving you reasons why.
- 8:59We stop telling you stories how you don't wanna do this.
- 9:02You don't wanna eat kale all the time.
- 9:03You don't wanna do this.
- 9:04Like, you you you wanna stop the quick fixes.
- 9:06Right?
- 9:07Because I had a patient that came to me who have tried so many weight loss programs before she came to me.
- 9:13And she came to me after her sixth round of Ozempic, the injection that people are doing now.
- 9:20She found a weight loss clinic and it's some covered by insurance.
- 9:24It's easy.
- 9:25It's covered by my insurance.
- 9:26I can just go to this clinic, get the injections, she wanted are happening.
- 9:39But guess what?
- 9:40Her liver started failing.
- 9:43She felt tired.
- 9:44People were that people were telling her, oh my god, you look good.
- 9:47You look slimmer.
- 9:48But she felt tired.
- 9:49She felt weak because of this Ozempic.
- 9:52She wasn't eating and infused the nutrients in her body.
- 9:56She felt different in her body.
- 9:58She lost the weight, but at what expense?
- 10:02And how was she feeling?
- 10:03Who was she becoming when she lost the weight?
- 10:06Right?
- 10:06So when you have a strong why and you're losing the weight, you're doing the things that are not quick fixes, the things that are sustainable, and you have a stronger why, why there's only 1 result.
- 10:17Only 1 result you're gonna get.
- 10:20Only 1 result.
- 10:21And those results are gonna be sustainable, and you're learning the process.
- 10:24Right?
- 10:25You're learning yourself, how you want to feel and what you're doing if it's resonating with you, if it's if your body is liking it or not liking it.
- 10:34So having a stronger why for me is also gonna work on your mindset because you gotta work on the mindset to have a why.
- 10:41Right?
- 10:42You gotta have a will power.
- 10:43You have to really push all the negative thoughts that come up.
- 10:48Right?
- 10:48And you get to choose better ones because as a human being, we have, like, 6000, I think, of thoughts raging to our brain.
- 10:57And for us, we so prone to bank on the negative 1.
- 11:01When you have a stronger why, you keep pushing.
- 11:04You don't give up.
- 11:05And guess what?
- 11:06When you have a stronger why, you're becoming the person that does the healthy things that will give you the healthy results.
- 11:13It's not you're not doing these things for a month or 3 months.
- 11:16It becomes part of your life.
- 11:18It becomes part of your identity.
- 11:20For me, I go to the gym 4 times per week, but it wasn't like that at the beginning.
- 11:25I resisted going to the gym.
- 11:27But I becoming the person that goes to the gym 4 times a week.
- 11:30Guess what?
- 11:31Like, on repeat, I develop small habits, compounding effects.
- 11:35I go to the gym 4 times a week.
- 11:37I don't have to think about it.
- 11:38When I don't go, my body is like, okay.
- 11:40What's going on?
- 11:41You didn't go to the gym today.
- 11:42I can feel it when I don't go to the gym.
- 11:44Can you believe it?
- 11:45When I don't don't go to the gym, you can feel it.
- 11:47So that's the same thing for you.
- 11:49And I go to the gym because I lost weight.
- 11:52Losing weight is easy for me.
- 11:55And because I lose weight, sometimes I lose weight way too fast, my muscles not as tall.
- 12:00I wanna tone up.
- 12:02I wanna develop muscles, so I go to the gym for that.
- 12:05I don't want the gym to lose weight.
- 12:06I go to the gym to maintain my weight and develop muscle mass.
- 12:10So I just go to the gym and it's good for circulation.
- 12:12It's good for your health and it's good for all things.
- 12:15Right?
- 12:24Transition to be beautifully.
- 12:26Right?
- 12:26Like, I'm gonna transition into the next phase of my life when I don't bleed anymore without feeling anything, without feeling wonderful.
- 12:34And it is so possible to do so.
- 12:36So I started pregaming now so that I can get there.
- 12:40So for you and that's my why.
- 12:42So for you, what is your why?
- 12:44Why are you doing what you do?
- 12:46And is it strong enough?
- 12:47Because when you don't have a strong why, you give up.
- 12:50You start something, and then that's it.
- 12:52You give up.
- 12:53But when you do have a strong why, you're like, okay.
- 12:56I got this.
- 12:57I can do this.
- 12:58I feel good doing this.
- 12:59That's the person that I am.
- 13:00That's who I'm becoming.
- 13:01That is part of my self image, self identity.
- 13:04Everything is awesome.
- 13:06So number 1, to heal in your body.
- 13:08Number 1, process.
- 13:10Is that the process?
- 13:11To heal in your body, to get rid of your digestive issues, to lose the weight, to balance your hormones, to feel your very best is your why.
- 13:20Why are we doing this?
- 13:22And is it strong enough?
- 13:23Because if it's not, you're gonna start, you're gonna give up.
- 13:27You're gonna have New Year's resolution, you're gonna have, like, the next goal, and you're gonna give up.
