Why Your Wellness Habits Fail (It's NOT a Lack of Discipline)
Happy Sunday,
I want to talk about the most frustrating thing in life, health, and business: the yoyo cycle.
We've all been thereβwhether it's weight loss, managing finances, or getting that workout routine started (and then quitting too soon). Statistically, 95% of people who get on a weight loss program gain the weight back six months later. This same pattern of failure haunts nearly every goal we set.
The failure isn't a lack of accountability, and it's certainly not a lack of willpower or discipline.
The real question is: Where do we need to start to stay consistent for the rest of our lives?
The Truth: You Are Starting in the Wrong Place
We confuse goals with destinations. Health, relationships, and money are not destinations; they are lifelong journeys made up of stepping stones.
The reason our habits fail is simple: We start building the walls before we check the ground.
Itβs like building a house without checking the foundation, or planting a tree without strong roots. You might see quick results, but the structure is destined to collapse under stress.
The Strong Ground: Your Non-Negotiable Roots
My core beliefβand the foundation of my work in the Wellness Vortex programβis that consistency begins with developing habits at the root level. These are your non-negotiable roots: fundamental actions that nurture you before you even attempt the "hard" stuff.
Letβs look at two examples of how to shift from building walls to checking the ground:
1. Movement (Beyond the Formal Workout)
You don't start with formal fitness classes if you've been inconsistent. That's building a wall! You start with gentle development of habits.
The non-negotiable root here is simply Moving More. The body is designed to move. Before you stress over 150 minutes a week, just try moving more:
-
Make microwave circles around the kitchen island.
-
Focus on proper posture.
This seemingly small habit fuels your body, improves your psychology, and builds the energy foundation necessary for a formal workout later.
2. Nutrition (Beyond "What Not To Eat")
We often obsess over what we are eating (the walls), but the root is why and how we are eating.
The non-negotiable root here is Curiosity.
-
Be curious about your cravings: Why am I craving certain foods? At what time? What's behind my craving?
-
Practice Fooditation: This is literally being present and curious in the process of food consumption. Slow down. Engage all your sensesβtaste, temperature, smell. When your body is focused on the sensual joy of the experience, it stops ruminating on negative thoughts.
Your Invitation to the Wellness Vortex
If you are tired of the yoyo cycle, busy-ness, and self-blame, you are ready to build a system where consistency is inevitable.
Your strong foundation is built upon your non-negotiable habits.

π What You Will Learn: The 3x3 Mindful Eating System
When you access the full training, you will receive a simple, repeatable 3x3 system to stop overeating and navigate tempting holiday meals (and daily life) without guilt or fatigue. This system is designed to transform your approach to food, allowing you to feel energized, lighter, and proud of your choices all season long.
The Core System: Three Pillars of Success
You will get the powerful actions that move you beyond simply restricting food:
-
Step 1: Discovering Your Deep Why (Mindset and Clarity): You will learn to unpeel the layers of "why" until you reach your core, positive motivation (like joy or peace). This is your non-negotiable anchor that keeps your commitment strong during moments of temptation.
-
Step 2: Balancing Energy (Movement and Budgeting): You will understand the four ways your body burns calories. The focus will be on strategically boosting your Non-Exercise Activity (NEAT) and utilizing Resistance Training to maximize your metabolism for up to 48 hours after a workout.
-
Step 3: Mastering the Feast (Strategic Planning): You will realize that planning is 80% of your success. This step gives you a powerful mental rehearsal and a simple sequence of actions to take before, during, and after your meals to maintain control and peace of mind.
Practical Q&A Takeaways
The recording also includes practical answers to common eating challenges:
-
Digestion in the Mouth: You will discover why proper chewing is the simplest, most effective step you can take to immediately improve your gut health and digestion.
-
"I Just Ate and I'm Still Hungry": You will learn how to decode this confusing feeling and the correct, strategic response to prevent subsequent overeating.
