Maintenance Workshop
Saturday, 5 March 2016
2:00-5:00
Workshop – “Mindset for Maintenance”
Principal
psychologist from Weight Management Psychology, previous Director of Psychology
for the Wesley LifeShape Clinic, and Consulting Psychologist for Queensland
Bariatrics, Glenn Mackintosh provides a psychology-minded, evidence-based
approach for overcoming the common challenge of failure to reach weight goals
in people looking to release body weight.
The mental approach many
people take to achieving weight goals is a major barrier to successfully
reaching and maintaining a healthy weight. Furthermore, the common
approach often leads to short-term weight loss, which is regained over time.
However, psychology offers
an understanding of how to develop the mindset to achieve and maintain a
healthy weight more successfully. Translating conclusive research and over
10,000 hours of clinical practise, Glenn Mackintosh provides the seven
secrets to success for reaching goals and maintaining them forever.
Cost - $120.00, Early-bird - $100.00
