Introduction
Wow, what an amazing journey it has been for the making of my DVD
and Companion Manual. It all started with my vision board. Then the
idea of doing a retreat came up on a Saturday morning make-up class
a couple of months before summer 2009, which I can vividly still
remember. And Now, the DVD is here after much hard work and
dedication.
It took me a couple of weeks scribbling on notebook paper during
breakfast to come up with the title The Unconventional Fat Loss
Methods 99% of Trainers Dont tell You! but it came out, and pretty
catchy if I may say so myself. Lol.
Gosh- I feel blessed. I am doing what I genuinely believe in and Im
so happy to be sharing it with you. I always had a mind of my own
and have always said and done what my heart truly feels. Its no
coincidence most of the information given in this DVD and manual is
contrarian to the popular belief.
I have put forth my maximum effort with the intention of helping
people live life to the fullest. My # 1 desire is to help as many people
as possible live a healthy and happy life. This DVD is just another

How to Meditate
Sit in a quiet place where you arent likely to be interrupted.
Try to get into a comfortable position, whether you are sitting
on a chair or on the floor. (dont lie down because you may fall
asleep). As a suggestion, you can get meditation music and put
it on your i-pod, computer, or CD player. My meditation CD
recommendation is in the resources page.
Close your eyes, relax, and just breathe slowly into your lungs
and into your belly. Release the air comfortably. Thoughts will
most likely come to mind, dont worry, just release the thought
and refocus on your breathing or the music you are listening to.
A saying or mantra that Brian taught me is A-ham Brahm
meaning I am one with life. I repeat this over and over in my
mind to give me a point of focus allowing me to just be in the
moment. This could be a useful saying for you too.
Meditation is a process of quieting the mind, not visualization.
As you quiet your mind, you will feel weightless and free of
resistance which allows your vibration to rise to come into your
natural pure state.
Practice, Practice, Practice! The more you practice, the more
you will get the hang of meditation. Know that at the
beginning, if you have never meditated before, it may feel
unnatural, and that is ok.
Begin with just 5 minutes a day for the first week and then work
your way up to 15 minutes a day. I would recommend doing it in
the morning before anything, but any time you chose is fine.
The more you meditate, the more you will recognize what it
feels like to be in a higher vibration (feeling good) , so when you
experience any resisting thoughts or a lower vibration (feeling
bad) , you will know just how to regain and replenish your
natural balance and natural state of being-that which is at a
high and pure vibration. This is What Meditation is all
about!
Step 6: When you find it place one hand in the other. Ask yourself
what gave you the drive to embrace that resource and utilize it? Take
the feelings of the drive and motivation and triple it, really feel it in
your body. Tell yourself that when you open your eyes you will
remember that resource that gave you the drive and motivation.
Step 7: What is the outcome? Visualize it. Feel it as if you are there.
Smile because you have accomplished it.
Step 8: While you are still relaxed in this receptive state tell yourself
When I hold my next hypnosis session I will be able to enter a deep
state of self hypnosis quickly and easily. And just before you open
your eyes, say When I count three, I will wake up, and when I wake
up I will feel great, I will feel terrific, and I will feel better than what I
have ever felt before. (Not on the DVD. From the book In the
Pursuit of Excellence, by Terry Orlick, PhD)
The last step (Step 8) is an autosuggestion or also called an
affirmation. As examples, Muhammad Ali said to himself all the time
I am the greatest and so he was one of the greatest boxers ever.
Louise L. Hay, one of my favorite authors, cured herself of cancer by
repeating to herself positive affirmations, doing visualization
exercises, and spiritual mind treatment. And, I also do visualization
exercises and affirmations all the time, which is why I am able to
achieve all that I want in my life.
The point is you have the same exact capability! Become aware of
your self talk, and if it is negative, correct it and turn it into
something positive. You too can change and heal your life!

Never Eat a large amount of Fat with Protein. This delays the
secretion of hydrochloric acid which is needed to digest protein.
Eat until you are 80% full to give your digestive tract a chance
to function properly.
2. Take digestive Enzymes with every meal-They break
down food particles for storage in the liver or muscles. But most
enzymes are destroyed by cooking because they are sensitive to
heat (118 degrees).. by supplementing you would reduce stress
on the body. As we grow older the ability to make our own
enzymes becomes less and less. (people who have hemeophelia
or blood thinners, pregnant women should consult doctor
before taking these enzymes)..taking enzymes will ensure you
continue to get full nutritional value from your food.
3. Do Not Drink liquids during your meals-! Drink no closer
than 10-15 min before a meal. And wait 1 hour or so after you
eat. The reason: It dilutes your digestive enzymes which aid
digestion. However, an exception to this rule would be warm
tea (green or ginger) or soup, because these aid digestion.
4. Drink plenty of water- This is good for proper functioning of
digestive tract. Make sure it is filtered water. Chlorine and
fluoride destroy friendly bacteria in digestive tract.
5. Exercise This moves stuff around. It is important in the
detoxification of the lymphatic system, which dumps toxins into
the circulatory system where they can be processed by the liver
and eliminated through the bladder or colon. (poop)
6. Find an alternative to Coffee such as Green Tea (nonacidic)other teas such as ginger help aid digestion.
7. Soak your nuts, seeds, and grains to take away enzyme
inhibitors and make more digestible(demonstration of soaking
nuts in stainless steel)
8. Take Probiotics- beneficial bacteria, normally present in
digestive tract. Vital for digestion, preventing overgrowth of

Get a clear cup, tall preferably, and have fun layering! Takes 2 minutes
prep time!
First layer is blueberries, Second layer is a sprinkle of stevia or xylotol
sweetener, Goats Milk yogurt, Third layer ** Soaked Almonds or
Flaxseeds, Fourth layer Goats Milk Yogurt, Fifth layer blueberries, top
with soaked flaxseeds or almonds if you dont soak the seeds or nuts, I
highly recommend you take enzymes for proper digestion.

The outer layer of nuts act as an enzyme inhibitor, it is best to soak them
in order to digest them properly. When doing this they also go from being
acidic in nature to more alkaline.
Place almonds in a stainless steel or glass container and cover them with
purified water overnight or for about 8-12 hours. Drain and Refrigerate.
Farms is a great product since their goats roam freely and are well taken
care of, but if not get one that is similar)
Option 1-Do Plain if eating as a bedtime snack.
Option 2-If eating as a daytime snack, you can add blueberries or
any berries with stevia to sweeten.
Option 3- you can add a couple of soaked nuts for more crunch
and flavor.

(Serves 4)
1 medium butternut squash (peeled, seeded & cut into chunks)
1 small Vidalia onion (thinly sliced)
4 California carrots (peeled & cut into same size as squash)
1 clove of garlic
1 sprig of fresh thyme
16 pieces (10-20 size- this means for every pound there is this many pieces)
scallops
3/4 Cup of pine nuts
1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
Olive oil, salt & pepper to taste
1. Toss the onions, carrots and garlic into a medium sauce pot with a
couple Tablespoons of olive oil and a few pinches of salt (you have
to cook and taste - then you will know exactly how much to add.
2. Turn the pot on medium heat and allow the vegetables to cook
slowly, releasing their flavor. You will know when to add the
squash when the onions become slightly translucent and the oil
turns an orange hue from the carrots, oh yeah - its squash time!
3. Toss the squash in and season again with salt. Allow to cook (if
the heat seems too high at this point - you will know this if your
vegetables are sticking to the bottom - turn the heat to low) until
the squash begins to break down and add enough water to
almost cover the vegetables.
4. Cook for 20 minutes and allow cooling to room temperature.
Puree in blender and add more water if necessary for desired
consistency - I prefer to have it a bit thinner than soup. TASTE
and adjust seasoning.
5. While the broth is cooling, using a medium size saut pan, heat with
a couple tablespoons olive oil on medium-high heat. Season
scallops with salt and pepper an when you can smell your olive oil
heating up (my favorite way to know your pan is ready) add the
24
scallops and allow to cook - do not shake pan or move scallops this cools the pan and steals all the flavor from your scallops.
6. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove from pan. Add the
pine nuts and toss until they are lightly toasted. Add broccoli
florets and season with salt and pepper. Saut for 2 minutes and
add 1/2 Cup water. Allow the broccoli to steam and finish cooking
(this will also release all the flavors from the bottom of the pan and
adhere to your pine nuts and broccoli.
7. Spoon broth in bowl or on plate, place scallops on top and then
finish with the broccoli and pine nut mixture. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 lemon (make sure it is soft, not a rock! It will yield more juice)
1 medium eggplant -1/2 chopped and other cut into lengthwise slices,
approx. in thick
2 zucchini & 1 yellow squash- chopped
5 plum tomatoes - chopped
1 red onion chopped
1 head of garlic (only using 1 clove - minced but put the rest of the head
in the oven and roast it then serve it with the chicken!)
1 bunch of basil
25
1) Heat grill pan or saut pan on high heat and preheat your oven to 350
degrees.
2) Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper and zest from your lemon.
3) Add 1T olive oil or if grilling, drizzle olive oil over chicken and mark
your chicken this means that you want to seal in the juices by either
grilling the outside or sauting, this should only be for 2 minutes per
side. Add your sliced eggplant (drizzled with olive oil, salt and pepper) to
the grill/saut pan at this point and cook for 3 minutes per side.
4) Place chicken in baking dish then in oven for approximately 10-12
minutes you will know the chicken is finished when it begins releasing
its juices in baking dish (the baking dish captures all of the fresh juices
and flavor the grill or saut pan loses use this for sauce!!!)
5) While the chicken is in the oven heat a large saut pan with 2T olive
oil. I usually wait until you literally can smell the olive oil and then add
your garlic and onion. Season the onion and garlic with salt and pepper
and saut for 2 minutes on medium-high heat.
7) Add your zucchini, squash and eggplant and season with salt and
pepper. Stir ingredients together and add tomatoes. Continue to cook
for 4-5 minutes or until the ingredients begin to break down and bind
together. Take as much basil as you like, and tear pieces into your
ratatouille. TASTE!
All of your ingredients are cooked now! You now can serve the tender
and moist chicken breasts along with the ratatouille and sliced lemon on
the side. AND with the leftovers

This is a great circuit for fat loss, increasing heart and lung capacity, muscle
endurance, strength, and power, and improves your core strength!
Instructions: Do these 3 exercises in a circuit fashion (one after the other)
using the time descriptions, tempo, rest periods. As a beginner you want to
start with 15 seconds, doing whatever your fast tempo is, and the most rest time
provided which would be 15 seconds. I recommend you begin with 1 set and
then progress to 3. As you progress you want to increase your work time,
decrease your rest time, and maximize the amount of sets.
So for an advanced individual the workout would be as follows: Exercise 1, 2,
and 3 for 1 min work time, at a fast tempo, resting 0 seconds between each

In these 2 circuits you get in some calisthenics as well as compound full body
weight bearing movements- kill 2 birds with one stone!
Instructions: Perform each exercise as prescribed above. As you do more sets, your
muscles will get more tired, so you may have to decrease the resistance to continue
with good form. For example, if you perform the pushups with your feet on the ball,
decrease the resistance by getting more of your lower body onto the ball. In other
words your chins or thighs may be on there.
