Maybe, you had been using your mind to gain weight instead of losing it, without even knowing.

In this entertaining and eye-opening talk, Jaime Fonte will show you how to use your mind to help you lose weight and keep it down for good.

To obtain results, we need to attack the problem from its root: the mind. Instead of just doing diets and trying to exercise, we need to learn how to get rid of cravings and start using our mind in our favour to help us lose weight and live the life we always dreamed of. Jaime Fonte is the author of the books “80% of your Overweight is in your Mind”, “ I Am not Stressed “ and “ Never Mad Again”.

From a young age, he had a deep interest in self-development, which led him to take many multidisciplinary studies with some of the most brilliant minds of personal transformation and energy psychology in the world.
