Mindset Shift: A Simple Formula to Get You Out of a Funk
A few weeks ago we were discussing my preference for momentum over motivation. Today, I’m going to show you how to turn this idea into a practical solution to whatever doldrums you may find yourself in. Typically, when we find ourselves in these less than ideal states we feel stuck. Stagnant. Petrified. And Frozen. Most…
Read MoreIs stress taking a toll on your health? Life-changing lessons I’ve learned to create inner peace, happiness and health!
This week is my birthday. I’ve now completed 37 trips around this grand old sun of ours. I used to cringe at the thought of getting older but now I see all the wonderful things that go along with it. I’m finally okay with the idea of trading my youth for wisdom. For me as…
Read MoreBecome Your Own Personal Investigator: your health may depend on it
Our bodies are constantly communicating with us. They are consistently giving us feedback. Have we forgotten how to listen? Collectively, we stopped taking these little notifications seriously. When we ignore them long enough they can turn into illnesses that we cannot ignore. Your body doesn’t have a notification ding like your phone. It has to…
Read MoreDitch Dieting Forever (and why I started eating meat again)
Get out of the cycle of on again, off again diets. If you want lasting health, make sustainable lifestyle changes instead. To me dieting feels like punishment. Forceful changes because you aren’t doing good enough before. Losing weight because you think you should look a certain way. But what if there was a different way…
Read MoreMomentum Over Motivation
Are you aware that motivation is just a feeling? I bet you understand that other feelings come and go. You most likely aren’t angry, sad, calm or even excited ALL of the time. We visit and revisit these feelings. Hopefully some more than others but I want you to understand that motivation isn’t what we…
Read MorePrioritize Your Health
Prioritize your health, if you do not want to make time for your illness. This one kind of slapped me in the face this year. My nanny was unexpectedly out for a whole month and I had a lot planned in that time period. With and infant and two other small kids, it’s hard to…
Read MoreChange Your Thoughts, Change Your Personal Reality
This week we will continue our discussion on awareness. (If you missed last week’s article you can read it here.) We are going to take a look at the thoughts we are playing on repeat in our minds. The thoughts you are constantly playing through your mind become your personal reality. They become your…
Read MoreRadical Awareness
This week we are talking about awareness because I truly believe if you want to make changes, especially in your health, you need to be honest with yourself. With awareness also comes acceptance. Acceptance of where you are right now. Not to point blame but to take responsibility. When we claim responsibility, we feel in…
Read MoreRead Ingredients
I used to feel sick. A lot. I spent a couple years commuting from Dallas to Fort Worth. At high traffic times, when I usually drove, it took me around an hour. I frequently called in sick or tried to work from home because my stomach was so upset in the mornings that the drive…
Read MoreMisconceptions About Hypnosis
What comes to mind when you hear the word hypnosis? Mind control, creepy guys with pendulums yelling ‘sleep’, someone on a stage in Vegas clucking like a chicken? If so, you are not alone. But this couldn’t be further from the truth. Hypnosis is just a goal-oriented meditation. And all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. Let me…
