3 things you can do to improve your health...

I can't believe that it is already July 20th! I'm really looking forward to my trip to the Midwest in a couple weeks to visit my friends and family! I have decided to do a cleanse starting this week because I feel like I've been eating a lot of foods that don't make me feel that great, and I've found myself sleeping in a lot lately and lacking energy, so I'm hoping to get that energy back, start getting up early again, and feel good again.

There’s something that I didn’t realize when I first started working one-on-one with people who want to make their health and wellness a priority, people who are sick of feeling less than amazing, and people who are confused about who to listen to for advice. Here it is: Most of us already know what we need to be doing to improve our health! There is a lot of information (and mis-information) when it comes to the foods we eat. Just look at the variety of books in the ‘diet’ or ‘health’ section of your local bookstore. But when it comes down to it, we still know the basic things we should be doing to improve our health. In fact, when I ask my clients “What are three things you think you could be doing, to improve your health?” I get similar answers each time: 1. Be more active 2. Stop eating _______ or stop drinking ________ (or stop smoking!) 3. Eat more vegetables. We intuitively know how to make ourselves well. But when it comes to following through? That’s where we fall apart. I know!! I have done it, too. I still do it. I might be a health coach, but I’m still human! I eat chips, I drink wine, and sometimes I don’t eat as well as I know I can. For the next week, I’d like you to think about the obstacles that are stopping you from living your healthiest life. Think about it, journal about it, reflect on it. What obstacles are standing in your way? Maybe you work long hours and cooking a healthy meal seems too time-consuming, or maybe you feel that the price of healthy food is too high. Perhaps you will discover that you aren’t sure if you really deserve to feel amazing. Your job for the next week is to simply think, reflect, and journal on these obstacles. Knowing your obstacles, habits, and patterns will help you figure out how to work around them! I would love to hear what you think is stopping you! Let’s work it out together!
