BodyKnowledgetm Weight Management Programs

Basic Weight Management

To customize your programs to meet your specific needs, you begin with 5 to 10 weekly consultations with Denise to identify your self-defeating thoughts, attitudes towards food, and unhealthy habits that contribute to your weight management difficulties. You are taught the basics of food combining according to Denise’s methods and given a Meal Planning Chart. You begin the BodyKnowledge^tm Basic Program, which teaches you to use your body the way it is designed for movement with a total body conditioning routine. You can use this “body knowledge” to improve your results in all areas of your fitness and movement life. You are also given habit control techniques to have power over urges, stay focused and achieve the goals you desire.

5 BodyKnowledge^tm Basic Sessions – 1-hour private sessions with Denise Cavassa, CMA where you complete your personalized BodyKnowledge^tm Basics program. At the end of these sessions, you will have a daily, 15-20-minute exercise routine to condition your body to look, feel and function at its best. Your progress is monitored in these sessions to determine the frequency of and needs for your future upgrades.

As you progress, upgrades to your Eating Plans and BodyKnowledge^tm exercise programs are quicker and more comprehensive and can be combined in 2-3 sessions every 4-6 weeks at a special-client fee.

Meal Planning

This program includes weekly meal plans to help you achieve your weight management goals and create body maintenance meals on your own. Meals are designed according to seasonal food availability and based on organic ingredients. Special accommodations can be made if you have specific requirements (e.g., needs to manage diabetes, hypertension, etc.).

Chef Service

Denise works with expert chefs who will shop and prepare your meals according to her weekly Eating Plans. Weekly pick-up and delivery services are available. Fee includes cost of food. When you do the math, you will see that this healthy service is much less expensive and convenient than eating out.

Partner Support Plans

It’s always easier to have a buddy when you are meeting challenges. Denise carefully matches the personalities and weight management goals of her clients to provide the extra support that you may need to condition yourself for success. This service includes monthly group support sessions for BodyKnowledge^tm fine-tuning tips and program upgrades, group fun and exercise, and to share personal success journeys and offer encouragement. Depending upon the group dynamics, sessions may be held in various fun locations, e.g., at high tea, day spa or at a dessert cafe.

Group Cleansing Plans

It is important to cleanse your body of toxins a few times a year. Such “fasting” can often be difficult and are always easier when done with a small, intimate group. Based on ancient “earth knowledge”, Denise’s programs consider seasonal foods, herbs, times of day/week/month, body cycles, and individual energy patterns to create a personalized Cleansing Plan for each participant and the dynamics of the group. Her Cleansing Plans are easy to follow and “livable”. Eating Plans are developed with step-by-step instructions for mind-body-spirit success. You receive the support and basic guidance for optimal health and goal achievement with BodyKnowledge^tm Cleansing Plans. Weekly phone consultations with Denise are scheduled. Support group meetings are available for an additional fee (see Partner Support Plan above). Denise often joins the group in the Cleanse.

Cleanses are a 4-week process that involves preparation, eating plans and recipes, and structured mental-physical alignment tools. Participants may extend a Cleanse for up to 4 weeks.

All BodyKnowledge^tm Programs are affordable and can be structured to fit your budget. Remember, you are worth every bit of your health and happiness!

If you are interested in participating in any of the above programs, please contact Denise directly.

1)	*BodyKnowledge^tm Weight Management Programs work*. You have tried so-o-o many other things, have yo-yo dieted with weight loss and gain, have deprived yourself, been frustrated, disappointed and experienced hopelessness and making yourself wrong.
		BodyKnowledge^tm offers you a new approach to fitness, health and wellness so that you learn to empower and enjoy yourself during the process of your life journey. This is not a diet, but a lifestyle plan that allows you to feel good, succeed and be happy. The Eating Plans become second nature and results are permanent as you work your plan.
2)	*You can CHEAT on this plan and still be successful with your weight management. BodyKnowledge^tm* Eating Plans are carefully designed so that there are ways to “have your cake and eat it, too” while following the food combination guidelines. You couldn’t do that with other programs.
3)	It’s a lot of depressing and exhausting work to do deprivation-dieting and exercising for 45-60 minutes, 5 days a week minimum in order to begin to change your body.
		BodyKnowledge^tm is designed by “the laziest fitness professional,” who lives by these rules: (i) no more than 15-20 minutes a day of exercise is necessary; (ii) if it doesn’t feel good, don’t do it; (iii) if it doesn’t taste good, don’t eat it; (iv) if it’s not fun, don’t do it; and (v) empower yourself with things you like and feel good. With this philosophy, the BodyKnowledge^tm Weight Management Programs are designed to:
			(1) make it easy for you to succeed; (2) eat what you want (including sweets) and still manage your weight; (3) make yourself right and (4) fit into your budget and schedule.
4)	You have spent more money on gym memberships and either never went to the gym, worked hard for little-to-no results, got disgusted with the “aerobic bunny” and “muscle head” mentalities, got injured, discovered that you didn’t have enough time to gain any benefits from your membership and/or a combination of all of the above .
		BodyKnowledge^tmoffers you a new approach to fitness, health and wellness so that you learn to empower and enjoy yourself during the process of your life journey. This is not a diet, but a lifestyle plan that allows you to feel good, succeed and be happy. The Eating Plans become second nature and results are permanent as you work your plan.
5)	BodyKnowledge^tm Weight Management Programs are easy and fun and you have support all the way. Enough said.
