#33 The Power of the Mind: Maintaining Your Keto Vegan Journey

Sticking with any lifestyle change can be tough, and the keto vegan path is no exception. But don't worry, fellow plant-powered keto adventurer! In this episode, we delve into the mind-body connection and explore powerful tools like hypnotherapy, affirmations, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) to help you unlock inner strength, overcome challenges, and stay motivated on your keto vegan journey. And don’t forget to share your own experiences and questions with me! Key Takeaways: Dieting is not about the food you eat – it is all about your thinking. Hypnotherapy can really help get your head into the diet. Rachel is a qualified Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapist and has created a trance you can listen to. Link below. Happiness is all about what’s inside. “Be happy for no reason, like a child. If you are happy for a reason, you’re in trouble, because that reason can be taken from you.” Deepak Chopra Rachel talks about Affirmations and Afformations (no, that’s not a typo!) Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a very helpful method to support you in breaking free from anything in your life you want to change. Rachel recommends a audio book by Jessica Ortner that she found very helpful. Link below. Best Moments: • “It’s a work in progress.” • “Eating food for me has always been an issue. That’s how I found the keto diet.” • “Food has been my love, my comfort,  ... but it’s knowing that food doesn’t love you, food is just nutrition” • “We need to find where that pain is, that lack is, and fill it with something much healthier.” • “Our thoughts aren’t real, they’re just thoughts.” • “Meditation, mindfulness is absolutely crucial.” • “You don’t have to do the work, I’m doing the work for you.” Valuable Resources Eating Control trance via the Rachel G Therapy YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/K3tJwY_0foM Jessica Ortner ‘The Tapping Solution for Weight Loss 7 Body Confidence’  • Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tapping-Solution-Weight-Loss-Confidence/dp/1781802920 • Hay House https://www.hayhouse.co.uk/tapping-solution-for-weight-loss-body-confidence-3  Noah St John “The complete Afformations Guidebook. 28 days to a more abundant lifestyle.” Website: https://noahstjohn.com/  For an extensive list of foods with their carb, fat and protein count, go here: https://www.rachelgtherapy.co.uk/1-what-why-and-how For a keto-vegan start-up menu and shopping list go here: https://www.rachelgtherapy.co.uk/1-what-why-and-how Host Bio Rachel, a once morbidly obese individual, experienced a remarkable body transformation through the keto diet.
