The MindBody Fitness Boot Camp is  a work in progress....
the areas with working links are available for online class work.  
As the online group progresses, these are also updated.

Part 1 - Introduction  - Getting Ready to Begin...
The desire to rehabilitate yourself can be very powerful &  open  doors to areas of creativity that were always there but simply sleeping.  Calls to self-rehabilitate can come from health concerns, lack of focus, relationship problems, work issues & a host of other areas.  Finally understanding that what you are doing isn't working & something has to change is actually a big gift, even though it may be wrapped in frightening paper.  

Being overwhelmed is a  common fear that appears in this moment of awakening. It's rather like a big plate of pasta. However, when someone is faced with a plate of real pasta, there is little tendency to procrastinate for long.  One just digs in &  usually doesn't stop until the plate is empty..  However, when life is seen as one big plate full of strands, its more common to freeze in fear & then stay locked up in procrastination which is simply another kind of fear.  Unfortunately, a large percentage of our population, adults & children alike, live in this scary place.  It's good to know that it is possible to break free of this paralyzing fear-state & here in the Boot Camp you will learn to do that & much more.  You are the writer, director & producer of your life & it's time to re-write a few things. 

We all have a tendency to live in automatic pilot programs.  Many of these mind programs do not reflect what we truly want, but yet most of us keep doing the same over & over. The Boot Camp is about breaking out of automatic pilot & stopping to make an assessment.  This breaks the habit of compulsion & clears the mind for reviewing & then making choices.  From this position it is easier to motivate yourself into the needed action plan for success.  This becomes a tall order, considering all  the areas in life that have need of rehabilitation.  To accomplish this objective one needs a very detailed program design or gestalt,  formulated on living images of what one truly wants to experience.  Also needed is  an excellent action plan & most importantly, a very special coach to consistently provide inner & outer motivation..  Now where do you find this?  Right here, for The Boot Camp is designed to provide all of the tools you will need for managing this task.  You will learn how to utilize them right in the moment, so they will always be at your fingertips.  

When should you begin?  I suggest with your very next breath.  I'd like you  to recognize that you are on the merry-go-round of life & are free to choose your mindset,  just as if it were a hat sitting absent-mindedly on your head.  Take off any mind-set hat that isn't working to your benefit.  Look especially for mindsets that keep you in a negative or victim frame of mine. Once you are awake & wearing a new mindset, you are ready to move on to collecting the kinds of tools that you will need for daily work if you are to become healthier both physically & emotionally.  Settling into this position,  you are now ready to program your own subconscious  mind for what you want.  You are now ready to go & get those things.  

Things to know first....

The MindBody Fitness Boot Camp Online Program is divided into sections.  Some of sections are not completely finished online, but if you join the Discussion Group, you will know when they are completed.  The beginning part of the work is quite complete & so there is plenty to keep you busy.

This is not the place for a quick fix.  This is a place for getting to the bottom of things & working them through the process.  Those who do this will be rewarded by both their mind & body.  Few of us utilize more than 2% of our brain function.  This work will dramatically increase this percentage, the amount depending on you & you alone.  Here you are your own Master Architect & will determine your outcomes.

About the Author & Program Director
Meet Elizabeth Bohorquez, RN, C.Ht., President & Program Designer of Sarasota Medical & Sports Hypnosis Institute & The Mindbody Fitness Boot Camp.

 
Mind Managing - Setting the Mind for a Fresh Start..
There is a first day for everything.  How you view this concept can change your life quite dramatically.  Many people have a habit of seeing things as difficult, even small things.  They tend to enter a problem through the negative "cannot do" door.  Let's be clear about this. Not everything is difficult or complicated.  Small things add up & can be very important to big positive outcomes.  Small emotions or thoughts can program your mind & body for what you don't want if you give them the power to do so. 

This chapter will open your mind to some ways you will take charge & move on to what you want.  Mind-managing is a craft that you can learn & work to a high level of excellence.  In this chapter you will be introduced to some of the  participants who invite you to look over their shoulders as they work through the Boot Camp Program.

Working with Brain Clouds
The entire mind & body function differently when stress levels are high.  This image will help you to visualize this biochemical disaster that most of us produce throughout our daily experiences.  Here you will learn about brain level speeds & why you should care. You will learn about producing brain clouds & filling them with negative outcome images that program your mind for more nasty weather.  You will learn how brain clouds keep you away from your powerful & creative subconscious mind library.  The Boot Camp is designed to make your aware of brain clouds & to provide you with tools to dissipate them. 

 4 Steps to Lifestyle Change
There are only 4 steps to climb to achieve any & all lifestyle changes.  Sounds easy, doesn't it?  As you become familiar with the steps & how to apply them as you walk through your daily life, you will be changing your subtle-behavioral  steps that have been taking you away from what you want.  As you practice climbing  these 4 steps in a consistent manner, you will find additional treasures along the way.

Working with the Inner Mind Screen
You have a powerful resource called your Inner Mind Screen.  This mechanism works like radar, pulling towards you anything that resembles or supports what you are playing on it, whether you want it or not.  When negative thoughts are playing, then you will find more experiences coming to support those thoughts.  If the thoughts are flavored by a particular emotions, like emotions will come forward to support those.  It is so very important to understand the power of your Inner Mind Screen & to utilize it to benefit you & your goals.  Here in the Boot Camp you will become an expert at managing this powerful resource.

Part 2 - Getting to Know Yourself - The Power of Personal Assessment
Preparing to take charge  & to make healthy lifestyle changes involves a very special kind of planning.  This planning means that you will be needing information about yourself that may not be in your current memory bank, but waiting for you in your subconscious mind library.  Some of these things will pertain to your family of origin, as well as from your own health history starting from the time you were a child and up through today.  

You will also be reclaiming memory files about your beliefs, how you got them and whether or not they are blocking your recovery from addiction or your rehabilitation in other areas.  In this chapter you will learn how to access this information and utilize for healing as well as for heightened creativity & goal achievement.  This special work is called your personal self-assessment, rather like an in-depth self-portrait. As you continue working through the Boot Camp you will be referring back to this area.

Part 3 - Working the Daily Self-Discipline Steps
Once the disciplines are placed on the daily time line, it is time to enter each pod or discipline & work within it.  This allows the subconscious mind to be an active partner in the process of self-growth, optimum health & performance. 

Step 1

The Nutritional & Body Needs Connection  - 
Introduction to Sugar Addiction, Blind & Disorderly Eating
Without the very best  nutrition, forget attaining high level health & optimum performance.  The body is like any other corporation.  Take good care of it & you will experience success. Neglect it & reap those benefits instead.  It's really quite simple.  While you may believe that you eat well, you may not be truly aware of what your mind & body needs, for it's not just about the food you are eating.....  It's not quite that simple!

Food Choices & Personalized Balance
It's absolutely vital to know what your body & mind need  each & every day. Here you will learn about your lean body mass, the connection to your family & personal medical history & how it effects food choices & portion sizes.  You will also come to know how good balance moderates hunger, as well as when you eat & when you don't.  Not eating is not a choice when looking to function at optimum levels.  

Designing a New Eating Plan 
This area is now being edited for the Boot Camp.  You are welcome to visit, but I suggest you come back for the final version & self-hypnotic exercises.

Step 2

Body Scanning - Mental Biofeedback 
Truth be known, a very large percentage of what resides below our outer crust, be it physical or emotional, tends to remain mysterious for most of our lives, mainly because we’re not attentive to the clues sent up by the body departments.  Sometimes we awaken if the body part screams loud enough, but even then little is done about the underlying cause.  This part of the Boot Camp serves as an introduction to the powerful mind & body connection & how you will be utilizing it to rehabilitate while planting other new mind programs..

Step 3

Beginning Practical Meditation - in process

Emotional States & Their Crayons  
Learning how to become aware of emotional states is imperative to  self-management in all areas of life.  In The Boot Camp you will be working with images, picturing emotional states as little children, wearing tee shirts with their names on the front, each child having their own personalized box of crayons utilized to color your moment- to- moment experiences.  This type of imagery will allow you to work with any emotion outside of yourself from the position of writer-director-producer of your life.

Places to Manage Emotions  

Thoughts are Things... Working the Mind VCR  
Thoughts play out in the VCR of the mind.  They come in all genres & in all emotional flavors.  These flavors cause reactions or responses in the body, as well as acting as catalysts for bringing more of the same from the outside world & from the inner library of the mind.  All thoughts, whether they work for us or not are powerful gifts, once you know how to awaken to them, harvest them & convince them with the tools of interactive self-hypnosis  to reveal their secrets. 

Step 4

Starting Interactive Self-Hypnosis Practice
Dream it, develop hot desire  & become it!   You are truly without limits when you work directly with your Greater mind.  Your subconscious can take you any place you choose to go, right in the moment, & then inwardly guide you to design the most exquisite plans to make the journey in real life. You will only be held back by your own self-governing limitations, but once those are identified, they can be fired from their job, no matter how long they have been employed.

Part 4 - Designing & Planting New Life Change Goals
You will begin self-organizing by setting up new goal areas for your life.  The links below will help you to do this.  First you will become familiar with the "over-view".  This represents the big picture.  Next, you will come to understand the different areas of your life & begin to design "over-arching goal statements" in each area.  This is accomplished by writing a short description of what you want "as if you already had it".  Then you will be ready to design & subconsciously plant/implement your very specific goals.  Then get ready for the magic. The subconscious mind is a radar-like mechanism & will bring whatever is needed to support the specific goal & the over-arching goal umbrella. 

Take your time with this & know that you can & actually should re-edit it many times over.......but it's important to start somewhere & that somewhere is always a "positive & motivating place."

Beginning.. & Meeting Your Inner-Self-Coach
Achieving a major lifestyle change is like a good old fashioned rope tug .  While a piece of rope  doesn't  hold much interest for most of us, rock climbers would certainly disagree, as it is their  lifeline & yours as well.   The rope is an excellent metaphor for the work you doing here & I'm sure you'll agree that  it does take a lot of  personal power to pull  lifestyle change permanently into your life. Well, you are ready & you are here & this chapter will introduce you to your own subconscious mind inner-coach.

Over-view & Building of the Goal-den Path & Garden Placement
The subconscious mind loves inner & outer organization.  This beginning imagery sets the stage for all that is to come.  You will be working with a living image of a goal-den path.  This is a private area in the mind's eye that is only for your own rehabilitation & self-development..  While others can come here, they only come when you invite them  & then only to work in your behalf.  The links below will take you to each individual garden.  You can also reach them through the links on the Goal-den Path.

Mindbody Health Goal Garden
 
Rarely do we consider our body parts as being separate, unless they are screaming out for some good reason.  What a big mistake this can be, for this is the most important garden on your path & will greatly effect what happens in every other area of your life. Keep in mind that all gardens are connected by a powerful, underground root system. Here you will design your over-arching goal image & then begin to subconsciously plant specific goal plants.  Next you will be applying a metaphorical solution of high level nutrition, deep relaxation, emotional & thought management, as well as interactive self-hypnotic imagery.

Relationship with Self Garden
The most important relationship garden on the path is your relationship with yourself.  This is often the most difficult area to design for people with low self-image and/or self-esteem. Putting yourself first may seem selfish, but as you come to understand the concept of being "self-full", you will see the benefit to all who surround you.  This area also houses images for your past & future paths.  Here  you can examine & even re-edit things that happened in the past so they can better serve you in the  present & future.  As you walk into your future, you can bring your resources & place them wherever our creativity guides us.

Relationship with Significant Other Garden
The next most important relationship on the path is that with your significant other.  While this is often your life partner, it can also be another person in your life. This area needs to be carefully designed so as to keep your individuality in tact.  It's not uncommon for a person to lose themselves in a significant other relationship & for this to cause enormous pain that is often at the root of major problems including disorderly eating & other addictions.  Here you will design your over-arching goal as if it were in the palm of your hand.  Then other specific goals can be subconsciously planted.  Keep in mind that this is a personal garden & not the garden of the significant other, so the power is yours & yours alone.

Other Relationships - image in process

Prosperity Garden
 If we want to experience prosperity in all areas of our life,  then this garden must be carefully constructed, taking time to build the over-arching umbrella goal & incorporating all areas & not just financial.  Everything on the goal-den path is connected by a powerful underground root system. It's exciting to design specific goal plants in this area & often their roots take hold very quickly indeed.

Work Garden
For most of us, work takes up a good portion of  life & can make it or break it.  If the body & mind are not healthy, the work garden suffers along with every other area.  Work & prosperity are closely connected & so the over-arching umbrella goal image must be designed with love & extreme care.  Few of us think like this.  We either like our work, hate it or tolerate it.  Many live for Friday & short-change them themselves.  When thinking about yourself here, keep in mind the  underground root system & what are you delivering to those areas of your life with this kind of thinking.

Home Garden
You are programming your subconscious mind all the time & what surrounds you at home, in your workplace, in your car & in other areas of your world speaks to how you respect yourself.  This is such a powerful garden because you have lots of control here.  You can choose to make changes that are truly going to impact the many areas of your life.  Pay close attention to the design of the over-arching goal & observe as the subconscious mind moves to action.

Spirituality Garden
Whether or not you participate in organized religion, you do  have a spiritual garden.  This is where your values live.  This is where you heal & set yourself free to love & create.  Paying attention to detail in this area will pay big dividends.  Once the over-arching goal umbrella is placed, the detailed goals will almost plant themselves, for we all crave understanding, compassion, forgiveness & love.  It is all here for the asking.

Future Garden
Keep in mind that your future is in process......right now.  What you are doing in this very moment is impacting your future garden & if you don't have a future garden with an over-arching goal umbrella, the subconscious mind isn't sure whether you want to go in the direction of "this current moment" or not.  The inner mind doesn't judge & just follows through with what you are thinking or doing.  When this garden is thoughtfully designed, it will help to guard your future desires or goals, not only bringing to your attention when you are off-course, but also automatically placing  you back on the path & within in the correct actions. 

Working Towards Goal Achievement
Once the gardens are in place with their individual over-arching goals, its time to think about & design specific goals.  Next comes planting & goal-tending. This is an ongoing process in all gardens.  This area of the Boot Camp will assist you through goal achievement utilizing Interactive Self-Hypnosis.   Be sure to have your specific goal garden information in front of you as you work in this way.

Daily Affirmation Work
Each day you go out in the world & collect experiences.  Some come to you through your own thoughts & based on your beliefs & expectations.  Others are gifted to you from others.  Some may be positive & others negative, but all play out in both the mind & body.   You already know that thoughts are mind programs.  This section of The Boot Camp is a place to harvest powerful hot-imagery affirmation plants.

Part 5 - Developing Self-Discipline & Continuity
The Boot Camp contains an enormous amount of information that under normal circumstances would be difficult to apply & remember.  However, this is not a problem when utilizing the methodology of this program.  The Boot Camp is designed as an interactive self-hypnotic program & enlists a most powerful asset, your own " subconscious mind inner-coach ®."  

There are certain disciplines that you will be performing every day in conjunction with your subconscious mind inner coach.  If you plan to succeed, you must also subconsciously program  a mindset of continuity.  Continuity builds our personal power base, making other disciplines easier to achieve.  In the Boot Camp there are are four main self-discipline areas.  These include high level nutrition, body communication, managing emotions & programming the mind for what we want utilizing the practice of Interactive Self-Hypnosis.

The Concept of Daily Self-Discipline - Focus Pods ©
 Pods are like rooms that hold a discipline or activity.  When you learn to think in this way, the subconscious mind will help to bring forth details & additional information having to do with the specific pod.  You will be learning how to access your Inner Coach before entering Pods.  This is a powerful interactive self-hypnosis focus tool.  It helps to build containments or Pods for our daily activities, even though you may think that you don't need them for things as simple as eating breakfast, drinking water, exercise, etc. but this far from the truth.  These Pods will set the self-discipline stage for other activities, acting as living mentors for other activities & goal plants.  

Creating a Daily Self-Discipline - Focus Pod Plan
When working to rehabilitate,  you will be making  lifestyle changes that will be replacing  old behaviors & patterns that were on automatic pilot.  These will become new automatic pilot programs.  In the beginning they will feel like new shoes, but after twenty days or so, they will flow quite easily.
