The SWAT Institute's (Simply Woman Accredited Trainer) roots began when Founder, Crystal Andrus,started facilitating her flagship course: The 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse seven years ago. Since then thousands of women have gone on to realize their dreams and attain peace, joy, self-love, and happiness. Maybe it is the perfect time for you to consider taking this life-changing journey...
The 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse (which normally runs only twice per year - September and January) has now been added for third session in May because of the huge demand for Crystal's work!
That's right! Crystal is beginning another 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse that begins Wednesday, May 16, 2012. And even more exciting news: this TeleCourse will feature brand-new material that Crystal has never shared before!
This course is pre-requisite before our SWAT students can enter into the second module of our curriculum - Empowerment Coaching.
Crystal is up-close and personal with you every
Wednesday evening beginning May 16th, 2012!! (But don't worry: the calls are recorded if you can't attend live!)
It’s a must-attend course if you:
• Sabotage and can't understand why or how to stop
• Have difficulty setting a mission with clear vision for your life • Have trouble prioritizing yourself and your goals • Seek approval and permission from others • Feel zapped by your surroundings and drained from negative people in your life • Are caught in self-limiting beliefs, while repeating patterns • Don’t know what your purpose and passion are • Are tired, overweight, unhealthy, and struggling with your body image • Use excuses such as family commitments, time constraints and a lack of money to opt out of your dreams • Fall into the hero syndrome – taking on too much and not understanding the underlying reason • Feel trapped by the ‘trappings’ • Feel burned out but can’t seem to get off the treadmill • Hold onto guilt, shame, anger, resentment and other energy-draining emotions and have a hard time letting go of them • Are not taking care of your health, yet know that you must • Surrender your personal power and ultimately your freedom to someone or something or • Are stuck in a rut and feeling lost and unsure about your future
If just some of that – or all of it – describes you, then our 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse is for you!
By changing the way you think, you will transform your life! And who better to teach you how to make it happen than me?
I’m Crystal Andrus and I can say first-hand that over the past fifteen years I have completely and utterly transformed every area of my life – and have helped thousands of other women world-wide become empowered, as well. I have manifested into reality my greatest dreams and it is my intention to help you fall in love with your life as well!
But I didn’t always feel this way…
Fifteen years ago, I was an overweight, stay-at-home mom wishing and dreaming for something more. My two daughters were the love of my life and they gave me lots of joy. But when it came to myself, I found that I wasn’t happy with who I was or where I saw my life going. As a former fitness competitor and health club owner, I had loved my fit and toned body and the admiration that came with it. But all of a sudden, (yes, babies can do wonders to a woman’s body), I was over 200 pounds and feeling invisible to the world, and ultimately to myself!
I decided things had to change – and change they did! The choices I made were not easy, but I knew that I needed to take my life back into my own hands. I left my fear-driven and extremely controlling husband and set off with my two young daughters, along with some furniture, on a very brave adventure – an adventure that ultimately became my journey to peace and joy! It was to be the most eye-opening, enlightening experience of my life. ‘What I learned was amazing and life-transforming!
Today, some twelve years later, I am a best-selling author with the world’s leader in self-help books – Hay House Publishing, an international motivational speaker, life coach, fitness expert and nutritionist on the hit TV show “X-Weighted”! And I juggle all of that, while taking care of my busy family and focusing on my brand new marriage!!
Already in my career so far, I have helped thousands of women worldwide change their lives for the better – and here’s what just some of them have to say:
"I took Crystal Andrus' 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse because I knew something wasn't right in my life—something wasn't real . . . and I was open and willing to explore and fix it. I knew in my heart this course was right. I was deserving of inner peace and joy, and as well, as my children deserved to have a mother who was at such an empowered place in her life. I wanted them to 'see' and 'feel' what true inner strength was.
One of the greatest impacts from this course was realizing how I have covered my wounds, my entire life. How I created a thick, non-transparent layer on myself and a protective bubble around myself and my children all these years, to protect us from all types of pain; thinking I was strong because I could achieve this and do it extremely well. The breaking down . . . the shedding . . . the letting go, then the re-building and re-inventing that has occurred because of this course has helped me to uncover my greatness.
Having the opportunity to take this course REALLY showed me what was real."
Darlene Dugay
"I am still in awe of releasing so much of my own shame by being present to the weekly calls, conversing with a study buddy, sharing my story on the forum and receiving replies of heart-felt support from other women. I felt safe and respected by all the women through mutual listening, empathy, unconditional acceptance, love and compassion. I experienced an inner courage to step into my grief and fear as never before. If lots of hands makes the work light, then many hearts joined in love eases the pain for all!"
Lucy Beiler
"Thank you so much for BEING YOU, Crystal; for doing what you do, and paying it all forward. This 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse is TRULY life changing, more so than twenty years of counseling. I appreciate the honor and blessing of being able to participate in this transformational course. It was not wasted on me, and I will pay all of the light forward. Truly love you, sister... props to you...sincerely for making YOUR LIFE touch so many!"
Shanti Shaharazade
"I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to participate in two different TeleCourses with Crystal Andrus, and through that my spirit has awakened and I finally see the strengths that I have. I never learned to pay attention to me, which is funny, who would think that paying attention is something that is learned. But it is.
As Crystal said, women resist pleasure and good things. I know I did, and it connects to what I have previously mentioned. I was taught to put others first and treat others better. By doing that, I resisted my needs, my wants, my pleasure, and my feelings. However, by opening up to emotions and being honest with myself, I am able to view the world from a new lens."
Priya Sharma, M.Ed
"Before I met Crystal Andrus and her work, the field of coaching and self-growth was a mystery for me. As a researcher in Microbiology and Natural sciences and as a professional athlete, I have been taught that our reality is determined by our 5 senses and that life just happens to us. This transformational TeleCourse had really shaken my way of approaching life. I realized that we create our reality with our thoughts, emotions, and beliefs, and that every year some additional layers are accumulated on our pure and authentic spirit. I realized that only 'I' am in charge of my life.
This course helped me to find out who I really am, what my needs are and deep desires are, along with what fears are preventing me from having the life of my dreams. Starting to speak my truth has had a big impact on my life.
I didn't have any expectations before starting this 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse and I was amazed the gentle way Crystal guides you through this process. Personal transformation just happened in such a natural way. I realized how my relationship with others transformed when I changed the way I was thinking and I speaking to myself."
Klara Maucec, 2-time Olympic Competitor
"The 12-Week Total Transformation Telecourse with Crystal Andrus has most effected me by making me aware of my emotions and feelings, and given me the tools to change my unwanted behaviours. I've learned to identify my triggers, along with constructive ways to diffuse these triggers so I can be more productive and happy. Understanding that no one can make you angry, upset or sad..but rather how you interpret events based on past life experience that elicits these feelings has shifted everything for me. I would take part in another telecourse with Crystal in the coming year, as I imagine each one brings you more clarity and direction."
Beverly Pickard
"By being a participant in this 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse, I have become conscious of how my core beliefs affect my life. I have never thought about examining my core beliefs before taking this course. Thank you Crystal! One of the greatest impacts that this course has made on my life is my healthy lifestyle. Before this course, I drank eight to ten regular cans of pop a day and did not always choose the best foods for my body. I can honestly say that I have given up all regular pop. I am drinking more juices and water now. I am meditating more, listening to my body and allowing my body that space when needed such as getting enough rest or drinking more water. My immune system has improved so much since giving up unhealthy regular pop."
Alissa Iida
"The most incredible feeling in the world is being connected to oneself through mind, body and spirit. Once we have the foundation of that connection established, we can then begin to nurture it and keep it growing just as a beautiful garden needs its soil, water and sun, before the seeds begin to sprout and grow.
The 12 Week Total Transformation Telecourse with Crystal Andrus has given me a solid understanding of which I will be going back to over and over again. I now understand life is an ongoing process of experience, self-awareness and growth.
This course is something every woman should experience, even if only once in their lives. Once you take the baby steps each week for 12 weeks, you come out feeling light, renewed and confident—looking out towards the horizon of the new found life ahead of you. You look one last time behind you. Wow! What a feeling of relief as you spread your wings and fly up into the sky with full breathes breathing in bright light. That light shines through your being and projects out into the universe as you finally realize we are all ONE!"
Basia Porczyk
"Through this 12-Week TeleCourse with Crystal Andus I can truly say, 'There is nothing to be afraid of anymore. I am safe, I am worthy and I am powerful.' When events in my present trigger my past, or when my wounded ego says a big 'NO,' I will remind myself that this is not real, this is not truth; to breathe through the not-so-positive emotions, to come back to the present, and then to respond from my Authentic Self with courage and consideration."
Patricia Greer
"One of the first points that Crystal made during this 12-Week TeleCourse had a great effect on my life. She said to listen to my body. I have always struggled with having all the energy that I need to complete my required tasks and so I have been working on my diet. I increased my water intake and have been paying more attention to my physical body and what it was telling me. Since that weeks lesson I have been juicing and eliminating foods from my diet that I decided are not the best food choices for me."
Lisa Fore
"An important point that I learned was that it was essential for me to take care of myself first. In our culture as mothers, it is deemed selfish to take care of myself before I make sure that all my motherly things are done and done perfectly. The reverse is actually true, if a mother takes time to honor herself as a woman and a creature of God, then she shows her children that she is worthy of respect and that they should take good care of themselves too."
Jennifer Windsor
"As I began my journey with Crystal Andrus' telecourse, I did not realize how much it would impact my life. I felt as if I was stuck in a vortex of time that continued to go around and around with no end in sight. There were so many areas of my life that I was so unhappy with. I began the telecourse with an open mind and heart hoping that I would havesome clarity to my life. As it turns out I am on the path to Freedom."
Nancy Glenn
"I have learned the importance of feelings and emotions and the distinction between the two. Before this 12-Week Total Transformation Telecourse, I understood that we are bigger than our feelings and that the best way to handle them is to just let them flow through us, but this class showed me HOW to do this better. I used to get confused between feelings and emotions, but feel clear now.
I believe because of this telecourse, I am much better equipped to feel my feelings, use them as a guidance system and to master my emotions, realizing that they come from thoughts and that is what controls my inner terrain and where I resonate."
Allison Watts
"My life matters! Your life matters! That's why we were born. We all need to nurture that hurt inner child that has allowed us to shut off our inner light and make us feel small. We are not our flaws, our hurt, guilt or shame. Through this 12-Week TeleCourse I've learned that 'No one is coming to save us but we can only save ourselves! We can allow our light to shine bright for all the world to see, and to lead the way for others to follow on our journey of empowerment.' Thank you Crystal for this 12 week journey to my new life!!"
Marlene Gallant
"Dear Crystal,
You have a gift for touching hearts and inspiring souls! I just completed your 12-Week TeleCourse. What a fabulous experience!
It was my first telecourse experience. I have to admit I'm not much of a phone person and just about missed this opportunity. Due to a cancelled workshop and your generous compensation package, this telecourse basically fell into my lap and blessed me. I looked so forward to Wednesday evenings to receive your message. It was an hour or more of "me" time, with the house to myself and you on a speaker phone. Each session was meditative and your voice was so comforting and easy to listen to. The theme that permeated the most was to value myself. I now ask myself if certain decisions or situations value my spirit, mind and body. If not, what am I doing about it?
Crystal, your compassion and insight into the human condition came shining through as I listened to you. It felt like you were a close friend coaching me to be the best I can be. Your friends and family are very lucky to have you. I was quite disappointed to end the telecourse and shed tears of detachment. I plan to remain connected somehow, whether it be through another telecourse, retreat, the message forum on your website, or the enjoyment of reading your books (I'm looking forward to the next one!).
You're an inspiration, a loving soul, an illumination, and I'm extremely grateful you've touched my life.
I feel touched by an angel."
Laurie St. Pierre
“As a Certified Life Coach I have had the opportunity to be exposed to most of the theory and some of the exercises in this course and have had the pleasure of guiding many wonderful people through life challenges and empowering them to steer their own course.
The most important lesson I learned from my experience as a Coach is that I cannot be my own Life Coach!! I need outside guidance and support. It is impossible to give yourself the best counsel when you are in emotional turmoil. There is also the advantage of tapping into new information and resources when you reach out to others for help. Most people assume I have all of the answers because of my training and experience - the truth is WE ALL NEED HELP SOMETIMES!! Real strength and courage is being truthful enough to recognize you need it, find it and use it! Crystal is a fantastic facilitator. She gives guidance in a gentle loving voice and instinctively knows when the situation requires her to be assertive and passionate in delivering a message. Crystal shares her own personal feedback about her life path and really opens the door to others through this example for women to share their own personal stories. Crystal also makes a point of sharing how much she learns from each course every time she facilitates one and really understands that to be a great teacher you must also be willing to be the student. The information and guidance delivered throughout this course is powerful, spiritual and loving. It is delivered by a woman who is passionate about living her life authentically. Crystal is genuinely dedicated to helping others to achieve a state of happiness and vitality in their own lives through bonding and open communication. Crystal gives reassurance to stay with the course at your own pace. She understands that not everyone is on the same page at the same time. I really appreciated the calm invitation to just start again wherever I was at and to do the exercises at my own pace. I became very ill and fell behind in the middle of the course. I wanted to give up and quit. Amazing that Crystal talked about going at your own pace during the telecourse exactly when I needed to hear it!! I have never participated in any kind of telecourse before. I really enjoyed going at my own pace and having the ability to replay the recordings. I am so thankful for the loving support and guidance I received during this course.
Thank you so much for your gift of time and knowledge Crystal. Your dedication to yourself and to the women who join the telecourse is profound, loving and life changing. Best Wishes to you on your journey and thank you for being my guide, mentor and teacher. I still have work to do to achieve the state of living and being in happiness, success and joy that I deserve. Thanks to this telecourse I have taken more steps forward on this incredible journey and I have gained the courage and knowledge I need to keep moving in the direction of love and joy.”

“After experiencing a frightening bout with skin cancer in the spring, I felt depression coming on and realized it was time to take action. Around the same time as fate would have it, one of Crystal's emails found its way to me and I started exploring everything she had to offer. When I was suddenly forced out of work due to my boss's bankruptcy, I decided to invest in myself and I signed on for the 12 week telecourse, the Isagenix cleanse and the retreat. Between the cleanse and the telecourse, I cleansed on a cellular level and a spiritual level and Crystal's retreat was icing on the cake. In twelve weeks, I have taken control over my emotional overeating which has plagued me since my early teens. The camaraderie with the other women involved was something I had never experienced in my life and I really found strength in numbers. Crystal led me through exercises, some were quite tough, that helped me learn my truth and put a plan in action for my future. I am a different woman now than I was twelve weeks ago. I have shed not only pounds but several layers of denial, shame, self-esteem issues, anger, grief and most importantly, I have learned to love the woman that I am. I don't look in the mirror with a critical scowl anymore. I see a "me" that I really like as I have come to know myself. Crystal, and her name really suits her...has a crystal clear way of "polishing" us raw diamonds. I appreciated her honest, direct approach and no nonsense "it is what it is." Her voice resonates with "what would courage have me do". I eagerly waited each Wednesday night to be part of such a wonderful group of women. Thank you, Crystal. You have impacted my life very deeply by giving me the tools I needed to find myself.”
Diane Lyndon
“The 12-Week TeleCourse with Crystal Andrus was a unique opportunity to go inside myself without fear. Crystal's guidance and insight provided a safety net as I considered possibilities that had never occurred to me.
My journey within led me to a new level of spirituality and self regard. With each week of the 12-Week TeleCourse, I was challenged to demand the best from myself in order to create my best life. Each week a new dynamic of my life opened, and as I followed the course exercises, I gained new tools to make better choices to connect my body, mind and soul.
When I signed up for the TeleCourse, I wasn't really sure I wanted to commit to 12 weeks of anything, let alone a "transformational telecourse" with other women whom I didn't know and would likely never meet. In week two, I recorded in my journal that I rated my commitment to the program as a 2 on a scale of 1-10. I had not improved my diet and I had not begun to exercise. Still, I listened each week to Crystal and to the power of these unknown women and, as their stories began to unfold, it was hard to ignore. After completing week 3, I decided to check out the free community message forum on Crystal's website. It was there that my transformation began.
I chatted online with one of the women on the telecourse one afternoon and related how stuck and unwilling to change I felt. Before our conversation was over, she challenged me to meet her in the pool three mornings a week at our local YMCA for a Swimfit class. Although she lives in Toronto and I live in Oklahoma, we "met" in the pool at 5:45 a.m. That support and commitment to meet my new friend in the pool changed my perspective on my life.
By the time 'The 12-Week BODY-MIND-SOUL TeleCourse' came to a close, I had totally revamped my eating habits and had lost 20 pounds, significantly improving my health (and just imagine how much I could have lost had I committed myself to the exercise and eating portion of the program in the first month!). More than that, I had begun a more authentic life and that led to a deeper respect for myself.
Crystal's book, Simply...Woman: 12-Week BODY-MIND-SOUL Total Transformation Program alone is powerful. But, when combined with Crystal's 12-Week TeleCourse, along with the wisdom, struggle and strength of the fellow participants, all under Crystal's gentle guidance, the result is life changing.
Today, I know who I am and what I want for my life. If not for the '12-Week BODY-MIND-SOUL Total Transformation TeleCourse', I fear I would still be waiting for my life to begin -- and worse, wondering why it never did.”
Mary Tucker
“The TeleCourse calls are nothing like I expected -- they're so much more! Each week Crystal guides and supports us through another step of the emotional and spiritual journey to the destination point of self-awareness and emotional well-being.
I was a spiritual cynic before starting the program, attracted to Simply...Woman for its structure and multi-dimensional approach to weight-loss and fitness -- never really believing that I would do any serious work in the mind and soul departments! I believed in self-awareness to a point but also believed that some things are best left alone and that examining long-standing "issues" was too great a risk to my personal equilibrium.
Well, after just 7 weeks, I'm a Simply...Woman convert in every way! Each week, with Crystal's gently assertive support, I've discovered something about myself that has set me free. Some issues will take longer than others to work through but even the recognizing and understanding of them is liberating.
I've felt the whole range of emotions on each call - pride that I'm really doing the work, sadness at how long it's taken for me to recognize and acknowledge some things, gratitude for the shared support of the telecourse members, tears at long-standing hurts (mine or other participants') and joy at the growing feeling of well-being.
I hold a soul-felt belief that I was meant to stumble across Crystal's book in that airport on that day and to make the uncharacteristic decision to sign up for the telecourse. It was time.
Thank you, Crystal, for being there when I needed you. The book is amazing, but the telecourse takes the program to a completely different level in a wonderful, unexpected, life-changing way. I warmly recommend it.”
Pat Stafford
The 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse with Crystal Andrus affected my life by triggering a major epiphany, finally. It summarized for me all the self work and inner reflection I’ve done and boiled it down to simply living, honoring and representing myself authentically. If I can achieve authenticity, everything else will fall into place and I will live the life I was meant to live.
Beth Gillmore
WOW! Mind boggling! Thank you Crystal and God bless you and the amazing message you are delivering.
Elizabeth Gorostiza
The 12-Week Total Transformation TeleCourse gave me a jolt of reality. A mirror to see what was happening in my life. It challenged me to apply ways to dig out of this spiral downward, although I was denying my problems. I was numbing myself from my purpose and in some ways avoiding success. From the first week I was challenged to surrender and be willing to do all that it takes to be empowered. I was shown that I needed to take ownership and realize that I created my reality. Crystal taught me that You can only see things that you are willing to see, you can only find things that you “believe” you will find. The mind is not capable of taking in everything it sees and will scan its outer world for objects that it is prepared to find. If you are open-minded, your future it limitless.
KC Muscolino
While being a participant of Crystal’s 12-week Total Transformation TeleCourse, I have learned so much about myself. I feel as if a light has gone on somewhere deep inside of me—a light that was always there but has been nothing more than a dim glow. I have never been a part of a course like this before. I can honestly say that I truly enjoyed the experience. I looked forward to every Wednesday night for some time to myself that I hadn’t had for a long time.
