The Icing and the Cake

I am a transformer. I help people transform their bodies, souls, and minds.

My experience has been in aesthetics, the icing, specializing in all things related to beauty. As a permanent cosmetics artist, I’ve worked on thousands of people, creating a more visually pleasing image of their features, concentrating on balance and symmetry.

My passion for beauty began at an early age when I became aware of how people positively changed when they viewed themselves as being more attractive and also how others treated them. It is the powerful “Halo” effect, and it’s real, and it got my attention at a very early age.

Changing a person’s appearance by assisting them in losing weight, getting a new style, and possibly various cosmetic procedures have been rewarding ventures. However, life-changing transformation occurs when a person becomes aware of their true identity.

My passion for TotalTransformationsNLP” now is taking beauty to the ultimate level, the level of self-actualization. Once a person realizes who they really are, they experience a level of confidence that creates joy. True beauty is far more than skin deep. Clearing limiting beliefs and negative emotions are foundational to become the best version of yourself.

There is a multitude of lifestyle coaches that have a specific niche or specialty, like financial, fitness, etc., specialty backgrounds. My background is aesthetics, personal image, and beauty. Believe it or not, Self Actualization and Beauty do not have to be oil and vinegar.

My business is “TotalTransformationsNLP,” which focuses on the whole person, the icing and the cake. I help you love yourself. ♥️

Understanding NLP: Myths and Misconceptions

To many people, the term NLP ( NeuroLinguistic Programming) sounds a bit intimidating, esoteric, maybe even spooky. In reality, it is none of these.

NLP is a scientific concept based on the notion of understanding our behavioral models. Simply stated, an individual's behavioral models are a product of his or her experiences. Through our experiences, we develop a system and form values, beliefs, attitudes, memories, and emotions. These various attributes make up our personality and dwell in the subconscious mind.

Our subconscious mind is like a hard drive and contains the akashic data of every thought, word, and deed collected via our five senses since birth, or even before birth. Our conscious mind can't contain, handle, or operate this enormous amount of data.

Through a filtration system, we delete, distort, and generalize the mega chunks of data. The filters are created by the data of the subconscious mind, which skews the conscious mind; thus, molds our world view. This is the meaning of "Perception is Projection."

Our individual world view controls "How" we act, react, and interact with other people and the world and "How" we model behavior. All behavioral models involve processes which become a program, most of which are unconscious.

NLP techniques help to create an awareness of how to recognize "How" we connect the unconscious processes and programs to our conscious thought. This marriage between the conscious and subconscious directly affects our everything; beliefs, behaviors, feelings, and emotions, etc. Epigenetics is the conception of this marriage.

Sometimes, old programs need an update. Our filters are like cataracts over the lens of the conscious mind that create limiting beliefs, limiting decisions, and negative emotions. Learning "How" a person processes is the first step for radical change. Excellence can be modeled!

Creating clarity by adjusting the lens of my 'client’s' perceptions is my intention and mission as a Master NLP practitioner. It's time to Update. Reboot. Upgrade!
