The weight loss journey can sometimes be a long, lonely and frustrating process, but it doesn’t have to be. Perhaps you have previously focused on willpower alone and found minimal or unsustainable results. You may not realize that you have areas of strength that can help shore up your weaknesses. The goal of Wholly Yours is to provide a context where you can experience companionship as you learn to bring your whole being into the process: physical, intellectual, emotional, relational and spiritual. You will learn how to improve your chances of sticking with the process as you grow into greater wholeness one small step at a time - right foot, left foot.

A WHOLE PERSON APPROACH TO WEIGHT LOSS
Wholly Yours is a faith-based weight loss program that activates your whole person in the weight loss process. You will learn to see how the various dimensions of your being (Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, Relational, and Spiritual) affect and are affected by your current state of holistic wellbeing. You will discover tools that will help you to leverage all of these wellness dimensions in order to find the greatest level of success possible towards your weight loss goal. We will focus on one wellness dimension each week (Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, Relational, and Spiritual) and you will choose a weekly action step corresponding to that week’s dimension focus.
The whole person wellness model used in Wholly Yours was developed by Dr. William Malarkey from the Ohio State University College of Medicine as outlined in his book Finding J.O.Y. (Amazon link below). You are encouraged to buy a copy of the book to use as a personal devotional during the 5 week program period. However, using the book is not required for participation in the Wholly Yours program.

TESTIMONIES
​
"It's good for what ails you." ~ Kathy
​
"The gentle approach to self realization which can be difficult in and of itself is what I liked best. Each instructor had a profound lesson each week that were manageable and I was able to make changes in my life that I am proud of. I started reading at night instead of TV. I stopped drinking pop, which has decreased my appetite. I got back to the gym which helps my chronic low back pain. I can recognize my need for beautiful surroundings and the need to take them in my mind. This class has given me the tools to work on the dragons (problems) that have tripped me up in the past. Simply reading the list of dragons in one of the recommended books about taming the dragons is all the hook I needed to say, 'Yes, that's me! Tell me how to get beyond my childhood trauma remnants that drive me to feel lonely, shame, etc. and then eat unconsciously.' The class has ended and I feel so much better about the future." ~ Sharon

"Wholly Yours“ has ignited a desire to lose weight not only for my physical appearance, but more importantly for my overall health and sense of well-being. Through Dixie’s thoughtful and insightful guidance and direction, I was able to integrate the areas of my life to see how they interact and depend on each other to live a life that earnestly seeks after Jesus. I learned that it is not just about losing weight, but more about more about discovering who I am as a beloved daughter of the King. Dixie is warm and inviting and made me feel immediately safe, loved and cherished. She sets a perfect example of someone who practices what she preaches!” ~ Shelley"
This program really helped me see how each area of my life deserves attention, not just because it affects others,but rather because it is good inherently. I appreciated the ways in which the connection of our mind, body and spirit are connected. I really think with its whole person approach it really helps to motivate me to stay on track, not just to lose weight but to be a better person all around." ~ Veronica
