About the Author: Every day millions of people around the world take that first step of going on a Diet. Often occasions such as the New Year, or birthdays can inspire individuals to make the sacrifices needed to lose weight. Unfortunately, many fall back into their own habits after only a couple of weeks. The reason for them going back to past behaviours is more about their emotional baggage than excess weight. As the LIFE DIET: losing the weight of unnecessary baggage to live a full and happy life explains, you will not achieve any goals holding onto things from the past. By taking the Life Diet the reader can get onto the road of success - be it dieting, business even dreams - by applying the simple tools outlined in the book. Author, Allison Blondell is no stranger to holding onto emotional baggage. As a young mother, she bought up two children on her own and learnt the hard way that you really have to take responsibility for your life to make things go your way. It seemed for a long time she was destined to failed relationships, no career and no money in the bank. One day she found a book called, 'The Value in the Valley' by Iyanla Vanzant. Allison explained, "It spoke about how life was really a series of hills and valleys and yes there was real value in those down times and often they were there to teach us a lesson. I decided to use my down time to learn as much as possible. I went to an Anthony Robins seminar and completed the Firewalk, this really showed me the power of the mind - as if you can walk on hot coal without burning your feet, just because you think you can - that means you can do anything. I gained a thirst for learning about what you could do once you put your mind to it and went to University to study Psychology. After completing my Degree, I read every self-help book going and trained as an NLP Practitioner. I am now a motivational speaker, supporting others towards reaching their goals and working with them to change their self talk with language that encourages them to take the necessary steps to move forward. Life Diet is a combination of all the lessons I learnt along the way, put into a short workbook, with exercises at the end of each chapter. I still remember what it is like to feel that you have no hope and how important is to encourage kindness to self and self belief. Therefore, I always take the opportunity to share my story with others, offering them hope - as once you take your power back - nothing is impossible."
