What We Discuss In This Episode: If your 2021 has been anything like mine, it brought about lots of changes – the past 18 months have been a little scary, and a lot crazy. As we go into the fall season, I'm always excited to recommit to my health and wellness and I know many of you are too. That's why I decided to talk to you about just some of the pillars of health and wellbeing, and in the short time we have together, pack it full of simple strategies to help you move forward with your health goals! The first pillar I want to mention is about Making Time . We all know that we feel we don't have enough time, right? Many of us have great intentions, but we get tired. Life happens. Working is exhausting. Our family can take it out of us and we don't follow through. Here's the thing I've learned about time: We all MAKE the time for what's most important to us. Time is the most precious resource we have at our disposal. On this earth, we only have a limited amount of time to spend with our friends, family, and loved ones. Whatever you do, remember - Keep It Super Simple When managing your time, the most effective way I've found to be successful each day is to start by creating a morning ritual that involves some self-care. Starting the day off this way helps you achieve a successful, thriving, and abundant life. In this episode, we talk about how you can create an awesome Miracle Morning Ritual. Having a miracle morning ritual can help you have a better self-care routine. And when it comes to time management, be sure to ORGANIZE & Prioritize. The second pillar touches on Healthy Eating because eating healthy isn't just about losing or maintaining weight. It's more about making choices that support your health along the way as much as possible. Why eat foods that make you feel sluggish, bloated, headachy, moody, and more. Make sure that what you eat nourishes you and makes you feel more energized. In this episode, I give you some easy ideas for eating healthy without adding more time to your day. Plus we touch on how you can eat mindfully to help you be even healthier. Then comes the all-important third pillar-- Getting healthy, regenerative sleep. We talk about how much sleep you might need, plus the downsides of not getting enough sleep. The truth is, not getting enough good quality sleep impacts our brain health and memory in the long term, and even our body's ability to detoxify and renew itself leading to an exponential increase in diseases like obesity, heart disease, Alzheimer's, autoimmune disorders, and adrenal dysregulation. When was the last time you woke up without an alarm, refreshed, AND didn't need a big bucket of coffee to get kick-started in the morning? I give you some of my best tips to help you get better sleep. Did I leave the best till last? You decide! Pillar #4 is all about Movement. Despite the fact that we feel we don't have enough time for this it is SO important for your health. Getting just a bit of regular 'movement' each day will give you SO many benefits if you can JUST GET YOUR BODY up off that chair, off the comfy couch, out of the car seat…wherever it is that you spend the majority of your waking hours. I share why you want to make just 30 minutes of daily MOVEMENT a part of your regular self-care routine. Not only does regular activity strengthen your muscles and improve heart and lung function, but it also reduces your risk of illness and disease, stimulates the growth of new brain cells, adding years to your life. There is no pill, elixir, or quick-fix remedy that has ever been developed or is in development that can do all that! Here's the thing. Most of us know that exercise and movement is good for us, but the biggest obstacle is time. So let's delve into that so more. So, the first step is DECIDING that moving your body more is important enough to make it a priority and working other things in your schedule around it. Giving your body the gift of movement regularly will actually help you feel energized, sleep better, help you tune into your body's hunger and thirst needs, and relieve your stress…see how that works? Moving your body more is part of achieving balanced health. And, whether you want to exercise to help you feel better, look better, and age better – or to support your weight loss goals by burning more calories – or even balance your hormones – the time to start is now. So these have just been a few of the pillars and building blocks for health – whatever your health needs are. There are more strategies and building blocks we could talk about but I just picked 4 today.
