Stop wasting money on gym memberships!

The fitness industry has misled us into believing that hitting the gym is the only path to wellness. Our ancestors were fit without gyms! They moved naturally through daily activities like hunting, gathering, and gardening. Read "The Blue Zones of Happiness" book. While some of these activities are still relevant, others aren't so much.

What can we do?

 

The Solution: Back to Basics!

Before diving into intense workouts, focus on building a strong foundation. These are the levels of developing movement as a habitual way of being vs. just a desired behavior we keep talking about it.

Every symptom, craving, or behavior around food has a POSITIVE INTENTION. Therefore, these cravings and behaviors aren't the problem - they're simply the best solution you've come up with so far.

When things are tough, it's easy to turn to comfort foods for a quick mood boost. But the problem is, this creates a vicious cycle. We feel better for a short time, then experience guilt and weight gain.

What if I told you it doesn't have to be this way? It's all about knowing when it's time to change. I'm not asking for drastic changes - just small, manageable steps in the right direction.

Habit loop or health loop? The choice is yours.

It's a habit loop either way. So which loop do you choose: healthy patterns or distracting patterns? If you're committed and ready, the answer is obvious. Remember, your relationship with food and your body impacts more than just what you eat.

Let's dive into how to eat to generate positive emotions, not feed your emotions.

Nadya here, to help you decide whether or not it’s time for a cleanse.

The body is designed to be self-cleaning and to excrete toxins, but here’s the problem…. It can’t always handle the toxic overload present in today’s environment. Chemicals not excreted accumulate in our fat cells and cell membranes become internal toxins. These toxins corrode the body from the inside out, making it harder to lose weight, have more energy or feel good in your body.

Yeeech.

So what is a cleanse?

A cleanse is a gentle way of clearing excess toxins from the body so it can operate at it’s highest potential. Think of a cleanse as something that delivers an all access pass to boundless reserves of energy that you didn’t know you had! You’ll find that every part of your body works better simply by “switching on” your metabolism through cleansing.

My clients find that cleansing helps them:
• Shed excess weight (especially...

Recently I have been reflecting on my teaching Own Your Health to Own Your Life. And today I want to reflect on making accountability fun. Accountability helps consistency, especially at early stages of a habit building, and making it fun keeps the game long-term. Our brain loooves reward and that's why making it fun about! 

Let's dive!  

 

Life can be either a fun adventure or a miserable experience. 

Accountability is a part of life. Therefore, we can treat it as either adventure with fun or experience with misery.  It's really up to us.

When I first talk to my potential clients, I often hear how dreadful accountability is for them; though, they know that's exactly what they need to help stick to the journey and be consistent. 

So, how do we make accountability not so dreadful and miserable? How do we make it as something we look forward to vs running away?

Before we jump in, do you know what you need an accountability...
