Abstract

ﾃ｢ﾂ?ﾂ?Train Your Mind, Body Will Followﾃ｢ﾂ?ﾂ� takes complicated subjects about the brain and body and breaks it down. From her experience as NBC10 Philadelphiaﾃ｢ﾂ?ﾂ?s Fitness expert and coaching members of her gym to athletes, Sandy is able to help a widerange of audiences tap into the power of their mentality. By fusing her expertise on kinesiology and positive psychology, she has created a system which helps her audience cultivate awareness and personal motivation through power statements. The formula was created in collaboration with Professors from Temple Universityﾃ｢ﾂ?ﾂ?s Kinesiology Department and The University of Pennsylvaniaﾃ｢ﾂ?ﾂ?s Positive Psychology Department to address the way the mind and body function both separately and together. The components of the presentation, such as the creating power statements and tracking personal progress are designed to take between 1-3 minutes per day, making it possible for anyone to adapt to this method of positive thinking. In the same way physical therapy patients work on moving certain muscles, they are working to train their brain on reconnecting the association to these muscles, as well. We are training our brain to create action plans through affirmations and cultivating positive habits. This system is designed not to over-complicate things, but present these ideas in a manner that appeal to our innate craving for action. Not only is the awareness of the mind-body connection shown to make us happier, but the fact that we can tap into our motivations through this connection and increase our abilities to meet our goals, as well.
