Marie-Josée Shaar’s Bio
Marie-Josée Shaar
Marie-Josée Shaar, MAPP 2007, wants to reverse the current epidemics in sleep deprivation, obesity, depression and physical inactivity. After a first career in the fast-paced corporate world, she founded Smarts and Stamina to help others adopt and maintain healthier lifestyles. Through research, coaching and teaching, she developed a model that is highly customizable, effective, and that limits the amount of self-discipline needed to achieve success.
She speaks on the topics of energy and stress management, productivity, as well as sleep, food, mood, and exercise habits. Her clients, colleagues and training participants find that her joyful energy brings out their own strengths and positivity. Her book co-written with Kathryn Britton, MAPP, is titled Smarts and Stamina: The Busy Person’s Guide to Optimal Health and Performance, and offers 50 well-researched avenues to health improvement.
Her favorite quotation: “Be the change you want to see in the world” (Gandhi).

I am a registered psychologist (M.A.P.s) of nearly thirty years counselling experience ,a personal trainer and state level squash player with extensive training in positive psychology,, member of IPPA. etc etc and find that the reality of using these strategies with clients is not as easy as presented and wonder how many of these “tips” have been used with real people. I would be really happy to hear about some real evidence. Please let me know. What has been done and has it worked.
Hi Lyn!
I have written about 18 articles on this site so far, and I would be happy to discuss further any idea/tip you would like. Since you have posted your comment on my bio and not on a specific article, I am not sure which one(s) you are interested in. Could you please be more specific? It will be my pleasure to give you more details.
Best,
MarieJ

I just looked up Marie on Google and found the two highest rankings were her own website; Google rankings # 3 and #4 were from our website. That’s the power of internet article writing and online promotions. They work.
