We are talking about re-vamping your health and fitness with Author and Transformational speaker — Mylitta Butler.

“You can only be one of the two, Os. You can be obese or old, but not both.”

These words from her doctor became Butler’s wake-up call to change her health and fitness levels.

When speaking to groups of people desperate to shed excess weight, Butler offers empathy and an understanding of where the weight gain stems. After all, she too was overweight, pre-diabetic, and experiencing high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Butler was once where the reader is now.

The weight loss love letter

“I know a big part of your weight problem stems from your past. You have experienced some unpleasant situations. There was dysfunction, feelings of brokenness, and inadequacies. Verbal and physical abuse at times. Which led to feelings of shame and worthlessness that set in, like seeds planted long ago.” Author — Mylitta  Butler

Butler offers a layperson’s explanation of how our issues — when left unexamined and unhealed are in our tissues. She incorporated the research of Dr. Van Der Kolk in her book.

Bessel Van Der Kolk, M.D. is touted as a pioneering researcher who has transformed our understanding of trauma and healing. Dr. Van Der Kolk’s book “The Body Keeps the Score” is a psychological trauma study. No matter how small or monumental, abuse and neglect affect the body emotionally and physically.

“Research from new disciplines has revealed that trauma produces actual physiological changes, including a recalibration of the brain’s alarm system, an increase in stress hormone activity, and alterations in the system that filters relevant information from irrelevant. We now know that trauma compromises the brain area that communicates the physical, embodied feeling of being alive.” Author — Bessel  Van Der Kolk, M.D.

Dr. Van Der Kolk’s neuroscience research has demonstrated the physical effects of trauma on the human brain and body and how a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), biofeedback, yoga, meditation, recreational therapy, and medication — for example, can help patients to recover.
