In Life we are blessed with the ability to make choices, we can choose how we want to feel, we can choose what direction we travel in, and we can choose who we surround and share our lives with. One thing is guaranteed that every choice made will have a consequence, whether it will be a positive or negative consequence is determined by your choice.
There are two main directions you may travel in life; one being the “Victim” and the other the “Victor” . As humans we are born a victim, and it is through our schooling, our religion, our society that teaches us how to become a better victim in life. So many people will find more excuses for why they didn’t do something they wanted to do.
As spiritual being’s having a human experience we can’t but help being curious, and it is when we see a different perspective that feels right, we tune into the Victor. The Victor is the winner, he see’s truth and balance and seeks solutions to issues at hand. The Victor knows that responsibility is the key to freedom.
Who do you choose to be in your life?
The Victim or
The Victor.
Your were born to choose and live as the Victor.

Have you ever experienced an event that was shared with a group of people and all had recalled the event in different ways?
Have you ever noticed that some people just don’t get it they just don’t see it the way you see it? Or may be you felt you just couldn’t connect with someone?
Would you like to know why this?
Life is a journey of communication we are meeting people all the time whether it be a relationship/friendship or just a short conversation at the local supermarket, we are connecting with people on different levels all the time. So in a sense it is essential to know how to communicate and understand how each individual and ourselves processes internally.
Our communication usually starts with our thoughts, then resulting in words, tonality and body language. One of the ways to define “thoughts” is how we use our senses internally.
We use our senses inwardly to represent experience to ourselves, and outwardly to perceive the world. Some examples to recalling experiences are, Remember the last time you went to the beach, what’s the first thing that appears in your mind? Maybe it’s a picture of the beach or it could be the sound of the ocean waves that you recall, or maybe you recall the feeling of being relaxed at the beach or the feeling of the sand on your feet as you walk.
If you were to ask a group of employees to describe their manager, the chances are that you will get a variety of answers. One employee might recall him by the way he dresses and how his hair is and then followed by the sound of his voice and then maybe then recall how he makes he or she feel when he is around.
The method of storing and taking in information in our minds through our five senses (Seeing, Hearing, Feeling, taste and smell) are known as Representational Systems in Neuro Linguistic Programming.
In each individual our internal representational systems are different, meaning we all have our own favoured representation processing. You might be a person that is more Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic (feelings), or Auditory Digital (self Talk)
Statistics suggest that in a developed country, people are predominantly;
- 60% Visual (V) Seeing
- 20% Auditory (A) Hearing
- 20% Kinesthetic. (K) Feeling
You’ve probably heard people say things like “I see what you mean,” or “I hear you.” These are not just cute euphemisms, but insights into how that person’s mind is working.
Once you know someone’s primary representational system, you can speak in a way that’s pleasing to- and gains rapport with their unconscious mind.
Our favored representational system becomes our own language for our experience and plays a significant part in our mental processes and consciousness.
Want to know what different behaviours each Representation System display’s?
How about knowing what to look for when communicating with a person to gain a stronger rapport?
I take it you said yes.
Clink in this link and answer each question to find out your primary representational system
————————————————————————————————————————–
Favoured Representational Systems results:
V: Visual
People who are visual often stand or sit with their heads and/or bodies erect, with their eyes up and breathe from the top of their lungs. They often sit forwards in their chair and tend to be organized, neat, well groomed, and orderly. They are often thin and wiry. In particular they use gestures a lot, which tend to be nearer head height and have no problem throwing their hands in the air. When memorizing, they do so by seeing pictures and are less distracted by noise. They often have trouble remembering verbal instructions because their minds tend to wander. A visual person will be interested in how your program LOOKS. Appearances are important to them.
Cues to look for:
- Breathing: Top of Lungs
- Speech Rate: Fast
- Physical Cues: Often gesturing with hands
- Predicates: See, look, and watch…
- Other Cues: Speak in a higher pitch
A: Auditory
People who are auditory will quite often move their eyes sideways. They breathe from the middle of their chest. They typically talk to themselves (some even move their lips when doing so) and can be easily distracted by noise. An auditory person can repeat things back to you easily as they learn by listening and generally like music and talking on the phone. They memories by steps, procedures, and sequences. They may move their lips when they’re reading. The auditory person likes to be TOLD how they are doing and responds to a certain tone of voice or set of words. They tend to use auditory predicates such as, “that rings a bell” or “that clicks”, and are interested in what you have to say. Auditory people can be excellent listeners and enjoy music and spoken voice.
- Breathing: Middle of chest
- Speech Rate: Medium
- Physical Cues: Mild hand gestures
- Predicates: Listen, hear, sounds like…
- Other Cues: May tilt head in a conversation
K: Kinesthetic:
People who are kinesthetic will typically be breathing from the bottom of their lungs, so you’ll see their stomach go in and out when they breathe. They often move and talk very slowly. They respond to physical rewards and touching. They use few hand gestures and generally stand within close proximity to the person they are talking with. They use predicates such as, I want to get a handle on it or a firm foundation and will be able to access their emotions more readily. The kinesthetic person is interested in how you feel and memories by walking through the process or doing it. Their handwriting is more rounded and it is likely that they’ll push more firmly on the page. They will be interested in your program if it “feels right”, or if you can give them something they can grasp.
- Breathing: Bottom of lungs
- Speech Rate: Slow
- Physical Cues: Few hand gestures, usually stands close
- Predicates: Gripping, feel, rough, soft, hard…
- Other Cues: Deeper voice, takes longer pauses
Ad: Auditory Digital
This person will spend a fair amount of time talking to themselves. They will want to know if your program “makes sense”. The auditory digital person can exhibit characteristics of the other major representational systems. Auditory Digital’s place a high value on logic and also like detail. They use words, which are abstract with no direct sensory link. They use predicates like, “I understand your motivation” or “makes sense to me”. As their emotions are often attached to the words that they are using to describe, they often are less emotionally attached to outcomes (double dissociation).
- Breathing: Sometimes lower abdomen
- Speech Rate: Sometimes slow
- Physical Cues: Reserved
- Predicates: Sensible, understand, calculate, analyse…
- Other Cues: Often not emotionally attached to outcomes
Enjoy and Have fun with this information.

“Behind every decision made there needs to be a reason or some kind of value to motivate you to make that decision”.
Having a strong immune system is one of the most powerful assets you could have in your life and I will do my best to help you understand why?
If I were to ask you do you enjoy being sick? I’m sure your instant answer would be no. No one enjoys being sick, however unfortunately getting sick is something that happens to us all. What if I told you we are in control of when we get sick and what sickness you get? We fail to see that from a conscious level we manifest this, and it goes deeper than just conscious, it’s from a subconscious level too.
Why subconscious? We are programming and processing from 95% of an unconscious level at all times. Your conscious mind provides 5% less cognitive activity during the day, and 5% is for people that are more aware, there are a great number of people that operate just 1% consciousness.
Majority of ‘illnesses’ begin with emotions and it is at a subconscious level that these illnesses are developed. “Our conscious mind actually commands and your subconscious mind obeys”. How does one control our subconscious? Well first let’s explore our Immune system and where the immune system fits into this…
There is an area in the brain called the hypothalamus and it is responsible for translating emotions into physiological responses. It regulates blood sugar levels, body temperature, your appetite and bodily systems – such as the heart, lung, circulatory and digestive systems – by receiving emotions from neuropeptides.
Neuropeptides are chemical hormones that carry emotions back and forth between the body and the brain. Neuropeptides (almost completely) link the thoughts in your brain to the organs in your body, by doing so in that way affecting every bodily system, including the disease-fighting system.
When you have fear based or stress related negative thoughts, your body responds by turning off the immune system, but if your conscious and subconscious mind powers are matched up with positive thoughts your body responds with improved healing and health.
So before you find natural ways for boosting your immune system, it is important to eliminate the things that can result in immune system disorders. For examples, as previously mentioned negative thinking, stress and depression and bad habits like smoking. Limit the things that can weaken your immune system because when your immune system is not strong, it gets easy for viruses and diseases to attack the body.
Here are a few helpful ways for boosting your immune system and improving your body’s potential to fight disease, because a stronger immune system will help you to live a longer healthier life.
Positive thinking and Meditation
- Start your day of with positive thoughts, and picture how you want your day to turn out vs what you don’t want to happen.
- Meditate – Give yourself 5-10 minutes everyday to find that piece within yourself by breathing, focusing on your breath by being present. Note: Many people convince themselves that they don’t have a spare10 minutes, if you find your self doing this STOP! “Its not true”.
Eat Low-Fat and Healthy Foods
- Try to include those foods in your diet that helps to boost your immune system, such as olive, brown rice, cantaloupe, broccoli, leafy greens, apples and oranges. Analyze your food intake by listing the kinds of food that you eat regularly and consume healthier food.
- Eat leafy greens, vegetables, fruit, whole grains and beans for building your body’s resilience to fight illness. Include poultry and fish in your diet as these foods provide strength to the body.
- Avoid high-fat desserts. It is okay to have a desert sometimes on special occasions. However, avoid intake of deserts regularly as the immune system starts to weaken if there is a consistent intake of high-fat diet food which eventually results in serious illness.
- Cut down on large quantities of red meat and dairy products – these foods contain large quantity of fat that are not digested easily. It is necessary to reduce fat from your diet to strengthen your immune system.
- Educate yourself in understanding the significance of balancing your intake of minerals and vitamins. Too much of a good thing can result in an imbalance and result in mineral and vitamins not performing their dutie to help protect you.
Exercise to Improve your Defence System
- If you do not exercise now, then start now. There are so many advantages for your body by simply starting an exercise program.
- Walk daily for at least 30 minutes. Keeping the body moving and sweating helps in boosting your immune system.
Consider Cancer-Fighting Foods and Medicinal Herbs
- Drink black tea and green – they contain indoles, tannins and bioflavonoids. All antioxidants aids in fighting cancer.
- Eat garlic as it is a strong health enhancer. Its powerful properties stabilise and protect the immune system. The Iowa Women’s Health Study found that women with the highest amounts of garlic in their diets had a 50 percent lower risk of certain colon cancers than women who didn’t consume high amounts.
- Eat cruciferous veggies eg. cauliflower, cabbage, kale, all have cancer fighting components. Broccoli is also a cruciferous vegetable and is the only one with a sizable amount of sulforaphane – a potent compound that boosts the body’s protective enzymes and flushes out cancer-causing chemicals. According to Jed Fahey, Scd this helps fight breast, liver, lung, prostate, skin, stomach, and bladder cancers.
Other cancer fighting foods are:
- Berries, which help fight colon, esophageal, oral, and skin cancers
- Tomatoes, which help fight – endometrial, lung, prostate, and stomach cancers
- Walnuts, which help fight breast and prostate cancers
- Beans, which help fight breast and colon cancers
Always remember
“Your body is your temple and the immune system is your foundation”
