Many of you may just want to shed some extra weight. Others may have been struggling for a long time. If you watched Oprah Monday, you know that it’s more than just a weight issue. That’s why I’ll be focusing on how we think as much as what we do in our health coaching classes!
You have to make yourself important, a priority, and you must give yourself the care you need.
For those of you who have already read The Answer by John Assaraf, you know that 96-98% of our behaviors are automatic. We have to interrupt this pattern to make real changes in our lives. We will talk more about this in one of our group sessions.
Another good book I read recently that I would recommend to help you stop self-punishing patterns is The Dark Side of the Light Chasers by Debbie Ford. She says:
“Challenge the person you think you are in order to unveil the person you are capable of becoming.”
“If we don’t shift our perceptions of our true selves, we’ll be stuck repeating our past behaviors.”
“The power you need is there, but it will only come out when your desire to change your life is stronger than your desire to stay the same.” I am offering free coaching this month with the purchase of our S-Force weight loss kit. To contact me, go to www.myseriesse.com/mindy. You can order there and then email me to put you on the health coaching list.
I hope you are having a great week.

S-Force Weight Loss Kit on Special
The way to change in the New Year begins with incorporating new habits that edge out the old, negative habits.
I suggest you start the day from a position of strength. Do something physical first, then make sure you eat breakfast. Our S-Pro protein powder is a great place to start. You can combine it with cold coffee, ice cubes and skim milk to replace your expensive cold coffee from the coffee shop or mix it with berries and bananas for a great smoothie.
You’ll be glad to know our S-Pro contains whey protein which is better for many reasons.
Whey is a complete protein because it contains all essential and non-essential amino acids. Whey protein is actually absorbed, retained and used in the body and can enhance energy levels, boost immune functions and help fight infections.
Other benefits of Whey Protein:
Helps to increase serotonin activity, the body’s ‘antidepressive’ neurotransmitter
Helps to decrease stress and reduces cortisol concentration levels
Helps to improve mood and memory loss under stress
Helps to build lean body mass and reduce body fat
Satisfies appetite and helps keep your metabolic rate high
I would be happy to suggest additional products for optimal health. You can contact me at www.myseriesse.com/mindy
Have a great day!
Just remember, you can do anything you set your mind to, but it takes action, perseverance, and facing your fears.

What do you want?
Hopefully you are feeling motivated and excited about a new week, a new year and a new you! Even if you’re not, ACT like you are. Start by finding a way to enjoy the activities you do every day.
I read something when my kids were small that made me realize I’d better start finding a way to enjoy cleaning, laundry, dishes and making lunches because I’d be doing them for a long time. Guess what? I really do enjoy them now.
Putting your attention and love into daily activities does pay off! Energy flows where attention goes. Put your energy into the activities that REALLY matter. Be present in the moment and count your blessings.
If you have not yet started your affirmations, this is a good day to begin that. At first, I was hit or miss with mine, now I am consistent and have created quite a long list that I read through at least once a day.
Reading them while waiting at appointments or sitting in traffic is helpful. (By the way, my life coach friend, Nancy, recommends buying bubbles and blowing them while in traffic. She says the breathing part of it is helpful and you make others smile!)
Examples of some of my affirmations:
I love and accept myself and the choices I have made.
I now take charge of my mind and life.
I am willing to change. I release all resistance.
I create a new life with new rules that totally support me.
Don’t give up on your affirmations. Realize it has taken a lifetime to create your world the way it is now. It may not necessarily change instantly.
From the book, Creative Visualization, by Shakti Gawain - shorter, simpler affirmations that convey a strong feeling are more effective.
She says many in our culture have become cut off from their spiritual essence and thereby feel helpless or powerless. We then overcompensate and struggle very hard to have some degree of power or control in our world.
I have been guilty of this and have finally learned, LEAST EFFORT, NOT MOST EFFORT.
Nancy said to me recently when I said how I feel a need to be productive in my hours I’m not sleeping, “Is that what you want your life to be all about?” She encourages me to focus on BE-ING, not do-ing.
Figure out what you want your life to be about and start creating that!
Have a great day and a great week!

Energy and passion instead of extra weight and stress
Especially after the holidays we feel a little heavier and more sluggish.
With the dawn of the New Year we always feel motivated to do something about it. We all have good intentions and then life gets in the way of our goals.
We all know what to do, but we don’t do it! Why is that?
First we need good reasons…then, I believe we need someone to hold our hand, yet hold us accountable…someone to give us the facts and help us apply them.
Well, this year, a group of us will be trying something new. We are going to use superior products to assist us in sticking to our weight loss and energy goals and we will couple it with the accountability of a group session to keep us on track.
My name is Mindy McCortney and I am a health coach. I became a health coach to help my clients purchasing my S-Force nutritionals.
I am prepared to facilitate a group training session once a week via telephone and will also provide motivation through emails. As we progress through the month of January, you may opt to join my health coaching website that offers food and exercise trackers among many other services to help keep you on track.
We will start with small steps and new behaviors to crowd out the old negative behaviors that have kept us stuck.
I hope you will join us in our effort to shape up and ramp up our energy and passion for life! You will be exposed to great information and products and make friends along the way. Simply order your S-Force weight loss kit and send your email to be included in the group. Looking forward to meeting you.
Happy New Year! Happy New You!

S-Force Nutrition is what YOU need!
In a 7-year study of more than 36,000 women ages 50 to 79, researchers at Kaiser Permanente found that those who took both calcium and vitamin D supplements gained less weight after menopause than those who took a placebo. Other research shows that without enough vitamin D, our appetite-regulating hormone leptin can't do its job.
Our vitamins have the required vitamin D and calcium.
Most commercially available milk is fortified with vitamin D, but most children and teens don't drink enough of it — four cups daily would be needed — to meet the new requirement, said Dr. Frank Greer, the report's co-author.
The new advice is based on mounting research about potential benefits from vitamin D besides keeping bones strong, including suggestions that it might reduce risks for cancer, diabetes and heart disease. The new advice replaces a 2003 academy recommendation for 200 units daily. That's the amount the government recommends for children and adults up to age 50; 400 units is recommended for adults aged 51 to 70 and 600 units for those aged 71 and up.
The previous two reports came from news articles and this last one (from a magazine) I found just shocking!
A recent study reported 23% of those polled would opt to spend a week in jail if it meant they could reach their ideal weight. That percentage would also shave their head for the same outcome…21% would trade 10 years of their life to be at their ideal weight.

Boost your brain power!
Stressing about the economy, the election and more?
Keep your brain healthy in spite of all the worries!
To follow is a list of just a few of our ingredients that are in Sylvester Stallone’s S-Force Multi-Nutrient Supplement and tonight I speak specifically about brain health.
Alpha Lipoic Acid which provides powerful antioxidant action and regenerates other important brain antioxidants including vitamins E, C and glutathione (all of which are also in our product). Alpha Lipoic Acid is absorbed from the gut and penetrates into the brain.
N-Acetyl L-Cysteine (NAC) dramatically increases the body’s production of glutathione, one of the brain’s most important antioxidants.
Vitamin E exhibits profound ability to limit free radical damage in the brain. We offer mixed tocopherols which is what experts say is most effective.
Gingko Biloba directly improves brain metabolism, increases brain blood flow and provides antioxidant action.
Vitamin D-probably the most talked about currently! It may have even greater ability than vitamin E to quench brain free radicals. We have cholecalciferol-the most effective of the five forms of vitamin D. Plus we offer 1000 IU which is the optimal level.
This is a stat from Prevention magazine which I found amazing...there are 257,000 cancer deaths in 2007 linked to low vitamin D levels. They go on to say that getting enough D can relieve backaches, ward off cancer and deter diabetes.
We have 30 plus organs and 100 trillion cells in our bodies! Treat them right and order your multi today!
Feel free to contact me if you have questions!

Next HOT JOB! Earn money on recession-proof items!
According to the Investor’s Business Daily, sales of cosmetics and personal care items continue strong during shaky economic times.
Makeup, skin care products and other toiletries are items people continue to buy no matter what’s going on with the economy.
Global sales of these items are predicted to hit $181.5 billion this year, up 4% over 2007. Similar growth is expected over the next five years. People will be buying their cosmetics and skin care somewhere, why not from you?
If you would like to start a business that creates residual income for you, please visit my website at www.mindymccortney.com.
On CNN today it was stated that direct sales is the next hot job category!
To be successful in this business simply pick the items you are passionate about and tell others about them. It is word of mouth marketing and you are already doing it (recommending products to others) but not getting paid for it! You recommend lipstick or movies or restaurants every day…does anyone send you a check at the end of the month?
Our products appeal to a large sector (the baby boomers) interested in slowing the natural process of aging. We are in a price range that is very fair for the ingredients and levels we use. We offer great VALUE!
Now is the time to start your business. Seriesse is offering great incentive (email me for details) and we could all use some extra money for our holiday shopping!
We are a fairly new company that offers you a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get into business with Sylvester Stallone! We offer skin care and makeup from his wife, Jennifer, and Sly offers superior, effective health-promoting products. I believe in our products and use them every day.
This is the time of year you need to be proactive about your health. Even if you don’t want to start a home-based business, you can get paid back on the products you buy for yourself.
Have a great day! Mindy
