Publisher's summary

The mind makeover that makes over your metabolism.

Hundreds of medical studies have shown the spectacular health benefits of meditation. Now Tiffany Cruikshank, founder of Yoga Medicine, puts that scientific research to good, practical use by incorporating easy-to-use, targeted meditations into a unique weight-loss program. This 21 day plan optimizes health as well as body image by tapping the hidden strength of the mind. We learn a whole new way to lose weight, and it takes just a few relaxing and energizing minutes a day.

Learn:

• How to get started: advice for new meditators (no weird positions or chants required)
• 3, 5, 7, and 10 minute meditations that bust cravings, break self-defeating habits, stress-proof the body, and reboot the brain
• What to eat - and the top five foods to consider avoiding
• How to continue your success after your 21-day retreat
• Bonus: 10 stress-relieving, cardio-revving yoga exercises to complement the plan

Each day of the plan in Meditate Your Weight helps you explore and release what's weighing you down physically, emotionally, and mentally - the mental blocks, thoughts, habits, and behaviors that stand in your way - to make it easier to think more clearly, make better choices, and maximize metabolism. As you lighten up on the inside, you'll lighten up on the outside.

Less stress = less belly fat. More calm + more balance = a healthier you.

Includes a bonus PDF of the "Meditate Your Weight Daily Yoga Sequence"

All guided meditations throughout this audiobook are collected at the end of this recording for easy use, along with a 20 minute "Meditate Your Weight" yoga sequence.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Yoga master Tiffany Cruikshank gently and expertly guides the reader from disbelief in meditation to daily dedication as each person has their ultimate epiphany - your best body can only be achieved by igniting and transforming both mind and body.” (Pam Peeke, MD, MPH, FACP, FACSM, Pew Foundation Scholar in Nutrition and Metabolism, New York Times best-selling author of The Hunger Fix)

I am my body and so much more

The book provides a welcomed approach to meditation. The insight into daily patterns and eating habits and how they affect weight and over all health is profound. Tiffany provides the scientific evidence on how the body works, studies about meditation and how adding a daily practice can shift metabolism. I liked the daily approach to weaving meditation into my life and by listening to this book now have a better perspective about my eating habits and so much more.

Great Resource for All

As an integrative family medicine physician I am always looking for resources to help my patients. This book is outstanding, not just for weight loss, but also for an overall happier healthier life. Tiffany is wonderful at what she does. I enjoyed the audio version and hearing her voice guided meditation. I highly recommend to anyone.

Delightful!

If you are looking for calmness and clarity, while enjoying the advantages of weight loss, this is the book for you!

Great for ANYONE looking to start a meditation practice!!!

Although this book is titled Meditate your weight, I believe that anyone searching for holistic optimal health would highly benefit from this program. It took me about a year after purchasing it to finally start listening...my thoughts were, I'm not overweight but my teacher wrote it and I want to learn from her on how to help those that may struggle with that part of their life. I firmly believe that "when the student is ready, the teacher appears" and when the inspiration hit me to listen to it, I was SO pleasantly surprised. I had been wanting to get a regular meditation practice going, and this book exceeded my expectations...I loved part one, because I'm a huge nerd and she took the time to share all the fun facts/science behind why meditation is so life enhancing. Part two takes you on an easily accessible and slow building daily meditation journey...it got to the point where I was excited to wake up in the morning to do it, and a beautiful morning ritual eventually evolved...make tea, meditate, sip tea and journal. And part three offered such a lovely guided flow that truly anyone can flow through (simple yet effective). If you, like me, have wanted to find something to reduce anxiety and increase your peace of mind and confidence, I definitely recommend Tiffany's book!!!
Namaste,
Kyrié

Tiffany Explains It All

Would you consider the audio edition of Meditate Your Weight to be better than the print version?

Yes, because she guides the meditations. The pdf provides 66 pages of text that are for the journal part. Excellent value.

What did you like best about this story?

Not really a story - it's an exploration into how and why meditation helps de-stress and she guides the reader into very specific things to look at each day that cause stress and then has help for dealing with them on a daily basis for 21 days. This is a life-long skill that she's teaching and she does it very well. At least to Day 4!

Any additional comments?

Great book. Explains meditation and leads guided, graduated meditations in a very non-spiritual but very clarifying way. I'm 4 days in and am very happy with the whole package. It is making a difference in lowering my stress level and improving eating behavior. Blood sugar is down over 30 points without medication and I'm down two pounds in 4 days.

This is my go to book to go to again and again

Can you lose weight with meditation? Yes you can. However this book is really geared to getting you into the pattern of meditation and mindfulness. All of this will lead you to losing weight.

Tiffany does a fabulous job of guiding you through in a caring and loving way. The journaling is a big help. This is not my first time listening to this book or reading it as I have both. But I can tell you that it has helped me tremendously.

Read it!

So good- and not about the numbers- about awareness in the mind and body. I am repeating the cycle:)
