Weight
Management Programs at Spas
New Age Health Spa in Neversink, New York
Philosophy:
We maintain a relatively unique point of view on the subject of weight
management. Rather than a clinical approach, we utilize a more spiritual
ideology, applying meditation and mindfulness techniques to effect eating
behaviors. Combining our spiritual ideologies with modern science, we
focus on the idea of mindfulness and eating awareness. Meditation is
simply living with awareness of the moment. In bringing awareness to
eating we see more clearly our motivations (eg. taste as opposed to
hunger,) and our true needs. We realize why we eat what we eat at the
times we eat it. The dietary changes are sometimes immediate but usually
our patterns shift over time with constant awareness.
Program:
All rates include charming overnight accommodations, three nutritious
meals daily, complete use of the Spa facility, and unlimited participation
in classes and programs (spiritual, fitness, nutrition, and outdoors).
For additional fees, a personal trainer for cardio and/or strength training
and nutrition consultations for Weight Management (centers on developing
awareness of the nutritional status of one's lifestyle habits and daily
activities) and Diet Analysis (Includes a detailed accounting of one's
physical structure, activity level and food intake, along with identifying
excesses and deficiencies in the current eating pattern; working to
develop personalized goals, objectives, and individualized menu plan.
This must be scheduled prior to arrival) are available.
New
Age Health Spa Philosophy of Weight Loss:
Generally, people are heavier than their ideal weight
because 1. They eat too much food and/or 2. They eat a relatively poor
selection of foods. To most adults in the Western world this makes sense.
It is, after all, a relatively simple concept. Nevertheless, for most
of us, the implementation of different eating habits is more easily
said than done.
Technically, almost everyone that would like to or actually should
lose weight would do so if they adhered to the follow instructions:
-
Eat less and
-
Don’t eat any junk food.
Since this simple scientific reality doesn’t seem to be taking
our ever-fatter nation in the right direction, we at New Age are taking
a different tact. What is at the root of eating more than your body
needs? What is the basis of feeling unable to do what you believe is
best for you?
Combining our spiritual ideologies with modern science, we focus on
the idea of mindfulness and eating awareness. Meditation is simply living
with awareness of the moment. In bringing awareness to eating we see
more clearly our motivations (eg. taste as opposed to hunger,) and our
true needs. We realize why we eat what we eat at the times we eat it.
The dietary changes are sometimes immediate but usually our patterns
shift over time with constant awareness.
In terms of long term healthful changes, new dietary patterns as well
as personal growth on every level, meditation on life, the process of
constantly living in the present moment, paying attention to what you
are doing, thinking, feeling is the path. For example, with increased
bodily awareness you are much less likely to eat foods, in quantities
that are impairing to your health. You are also far more likely to have
a heightened enjoyment of your food.
Learning, practicing and accepting the process of growing awareness
is simply the long term way to weight loss through evolvement.
