Personal Development and Fitness Expert John Spencer Ellis Warns About "Sociopathic Gurus"

Personal Development and Fitness Expert John Spencer Ellis Warns About "Sociopathic Gurus"
As the guru business continues to grow, a long time fitness and personal development expert warns about guru claims and their own personal agenda.
While this topic is a little different than the more positive aspects of health, fitness, wellness and personal development I typically blog about, I think its a really important one. Sociopathic people can be manipulative and dangerous, so you need to learn how to identify them and how to handle them, said Ellis, founder of John Spencer Ellis Enterprises, a fitness and personal development solutions company. The crazy thing about sociopathic people is that they will have you believing that you are the crazy one, so you really have to learn to pay attention and listen to your gut.
If someone exhibits three or more of the following characteristics, they might be a sociopath: antagonistic, callous, impulsive, pathological liar, lack of or shallow emotions, exaggerated sexuality, excessive boasting, glib, manipulative, secretive and paranoid.
Ellis recommends the following steps for dealing with a sociopath in your inner circle:
Listen to your gut. If its telling you to stay away from someone, pay attention. Do your own research. If a coach, mentor or guru comes across a manipulative or slimy, stay away. Dont just listen to their boasting or testimonials. If someone seems to have befriended you for their benefit only, take a closer look at the relationship. If everyone else in your organization strongly dislikes one person, you should probably get rid of them. Do not try to help or fix them.
The blog offer more example of well-known sociopaths and advice for staying clear of manipulative people. In addition, Ellis blog regularly offers personal development, fitness and wellness advice.

Wellness Center raises the 'barre' on fitness classes
Posted: at 7:21 am
With bathing suit season already here, most people are trying to find the health regime that is going to get them looking good for the season. Tatiana Habanova, owner of The Pilates Wellness Center, is helping guide her clients to the body they always wanted with her newest venture, Barre Studio Wellington, in the Wellness Center.
Booty Barre is an energetic 55-minute class that combines the toning benefits of yoga, Pilates and dance to strengthen and stretch the body, Habanova said. The method was designed by Tracey Mallet to provide a great dance workout for people who are not dancers.
"Don't be intimated by the word 'booty,'" Habanova said. "This is a technique-orientated class; this means we use the same choreography for each class allowing participants to not only strengthen their bodies but improve their technique over time."
Habanova opened the Barre Studio last November after being certified in the Booty Barre Method.
"I saw that barre classes were quickly becoming a fitness craze in California and New York, she said. "I wanted to bring something new to Wellington and thought this would be a great fit."
"The class really takes Pilates vertical," she said. "It is a great low impact workout that produces results."
Each class has a maximum of 10 participants who line the barre, which follows the length of the room.
"We use fun pop music so the mood in the room is high energy while putting into use the core principals of Pilates and yoga. Habanova said.
Charlotte Weiness, a seasonal equestrian who travels from Stuart to work with Habanova, said she loves the barre class because the group energy is different from a one-on-one session.
"Feeding off the group's energy makes you work a lot harder," Weiness said. "I like applying what I have learned about how my body works in the one-on-one session to the workout in the class. When I do something right I feel a great sense of accomplishment."

Pilates made easy

With some fitness regimens, that first trip to the gym can nearly kill you.
Pilates, with its emphasis on core training and an abundance of moves, works the other way.
"The first time is almost the easiest," says Alycea Ungaro, owner of Real Pilates in New York and author of Pilates: Body in Motion.

"It gets harder after that. Once you know what to do, the bar gets higher, the demand gets harder. You see things you're doing wrong and you fix them. You work harder."
Ungaro, who has been teaching Pilates for almost 20 years and opened her first studio in 1996, says Pilates is one of the most adaptable forms of exercise.
"We have exercises for people through every decade of their life or their condition, whether they're triathletes prepping for an event or people recovering from injury or postpartum," she says.
"It's a very malleable means of training. You can make it as hard or as easy as you wish."
Ungaro says that the classic Pilates mat routine is known for being effective in changing one's body. But many people find the complex choreography and multiple position changes too difficult to keep up with, she says. So she suggests trying Pilates as a circuit.
