A Love Challenge

Because February is the month of love, I want to offer a unique challenge to you.

First, I want you to write a list of the things you love about yourself.

About how you look…

About who you are…

About how you treat other people…

About what you’ve accomplished…

The list can be as long as you want it to be.

Side note: if you struggle with this, it’s even more important that you complete this exercise.

Once you’ve completed your list, I want you to stand in front of a mirror and read the list aloud, glancing into your own eyes so you can see and feel the truth of it all.

Deep breaths as you move through it without rushing.

Even feel free to close your eyes as you allow the emotion of those things you love about yourself to sweep through your body and amplify.

Do this every day for at least a week.

Feel free to add to the list at any time.

Until you do this exercise, you can’t imagine how powerful it will be.

So, will you trust me and do this?

I hope so.

Because loving yourself more is the key to making progress in so many other areas of life.

Let me know how this goes or what comes up for you once you’ve completed the exercise, ok?

I can’t wait to celebrate you. <3

Challenge your truth

Have you ever wondered where your beliefs come from and why you believe certain things about life and the world to be true? If not, that’s ok, but I want you to keep an open mind for me as you read this…

You see, many of the belief systems we have aren’t our own. They are imposed on us by parents, society, cultures, etc… For example, what defines a successful life for most people is the traditional story – go to school, get a great job, have a beautiful family, work hard until you can retire, then kick back and enjoy life.

Today more than ever that belief is being challenged. People are beginning to crave a different narrative. But that’s been the predominant one for over a century. Another example closer related to what I do is the common belief that people just don’t have time for exercise or preparing healthy meals. But what’s true is that other people with just as busy of a schedule do find the time. So, if the belief system around time was true, no two people with the same type of schedule should be able to find the time to take care of themselves… Of course, the time belief system we are using here as an example is faulty and false. I hope this is making sense.

Today I want to challenge you… Write down 5 beliefs that you have that hold you back from achieving the healthy life you desire. Even if right now you believe the excuse or thought is 100% legit. Then, ask yourself – “What else is possible? Is this really true?” When your beliefs are deeply rooted by habit and by the people who surround you, it can be very hard to break free from them. But with effort, it’s possible. I promise you that any thought you’re holding on to that keeps you from creating the life and the body you desire is a false truth no matter how real it feels right now. Challenging your beliefs and the meaning you give them is one of the first steps to taking new action to create change in your life.

Please email us and let us know what the 5 beliefs you came up with are and how we can help guide you towards a healthier life.
