Faith, Neuroscience, And Lasting Weight Loss

Описание: Change the script, change the result. We dive into a grounded, grace-filled approach to midlife weight loss that rejects crash diets and embraces sustainable transformation through faith, neuroscience, and simple daily habits. With Dr. Lorette, a cognitive behavioral therapist and minister, we explore how thoughts shape beliefs, beliefs drive feelings, and feelings steer actions—so if you want new outcomes, start where your self-talk begins.

You’ll learn the Five Dailies—pray and plan, water, move, journal, sleep—and why starting with just one habit today beats chasing the perfect plan tomorrow. We walk through a quick craving reset that blends bilateral stimulation with a spoken boundary scripture to quiet the urge in seconds and rewire desire over time. Instead of muscling through temptation, you’ll feel the power shift as your words anchor a healthier identity and your brain follows suit.

We also unpack the role of self-love as a structural pillar for health, offering practical ways to replace harsh inner narratives with truth you can speak and embody. You’ll hear simple meditation strategies that reduce stress and cortisol in minutes, plus a hands-on method for “casting down” toxic thoughts to accelerate neuroplastic change. For movement, Dr. Lorette introduces PraiseMoves—a Christ-centered alternative to yoga—where scripture and strength training meet to build flexibility, balance, and resilience without strain.

If you’re navigating midlife hormones, stress, and the pull of old habits, this conversation offers tools you can use today and a hopeful framework that lasts. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs encouragement, and leave a review with the one habit you’ll start now—we’re cheering you on.
