Halloween Pumpkin Fitness Challenge

by

It’s finally Fall!!!

I love the Fall! It is easily my favorite season ever! Not only because of the leaves changing colors, the crisp cold air (even though it’s not great for my asthma), the warm sweaters, the cozy boots, the prefect excuse to start drinking hot chocolate before the wintertime, or even all the movies that I get to cuddle up in my bed every night and watch. It’s my favorite season mainly because my favorite holiday is finally on the horizon!

That’s right, I’m talking about Halloween!

I absolutely love Halloween, always have and always will. I love the spooks, the scares, the movies, the candy even though I tend to only eat the snicker bars (the best candy ever), the dark nights and the greyish mornings. I love everything about it and I’m so happy that October is on the way.

In honor of preparing for my favorite holiday during my favorite month and my favorite time of year, I’ve put together a fun little Halloween Fitness Challenge for you. However, beware that this isn’t just any ol’ fitness challenge. Oh no. It’s a Halloween themed fitness challenge where every Sunday there will be a pumpkin challenge workout for you to complete.

It’s going to be so fun!

And don’t worry this challenge is completely beginner friendly, so no matter what your workout level may be, you too can take part in this challenge.

So, what is the pumpkin workout? Don’t worry I’m going to let you know exactly what it is. But first, I’ve got some Halloween tips to help you stay healthy and fit this October. Check them out below! [Read more…]

8 Of the Best Workouts for Introverts

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILATE LINKS. PLEASE READ MY DISCLOSURE FOR MORE INFO.

Are you the type of person who loves participating in activities but don’t necessarily love the company of others? If so, you and I are one in the same.

I love, love, love working out, going on long walks, doing yoga, following stretching videos, and pretty much anything that will keep my physically active while working on bettering my health. Recently I’ve even fallen in love with hiking, which is something that I do think ultimately, I could do on my own. I will be the first to admit that while I do enjoy doing a lot of activities by myself, there are days when I also love having company.

But for the most part I enjoy working on bettering my health with my own company.

This is mainly because I feel that there is no pressure to do well, to succeed, or to even extend my workout session out of fear of not being able to keep up with others. This is just a few of the reasons among many as to why I enjoy working out by myself, and honestly even in the comfort of my own home. I’ve been working out at home and alone for nearly a year now and I find nothing to be more liberating and more self-motivating.

Of course, there is always the option of going to the gym by yourself and working out alone, but honestly there’s just something different and more intimate about doing it in the comfort of your own home, where for the most part you don’t have to be surrounded by anyone else. Or am I the only one who feels this way? Anyways, in honor of being an introvert who loves to work out, I thought I’d share with you some of my favorite workouts to do, and workouts that I’m interested in trying, in the comfort of my own environment and for the most part all by myself.

3 Ways You’re Doing Self-Care Wrong

by

I’m sure you’ve heard the buzz about how important self-care is.

If you’ve been following my blog for a while now then you know that I constantly talk about self-care and why it’s so important. Even if you’re not hearing about the importance of self-care from my blog, or the internet, or any form of social media, chances are you’re hearing about it somewhere.

There used to be a time when I was so confused about why everyone would talk about self-care so much. I’d go to the doctor and my doctor would always tell me to make sure that I was engaging in self-care. I’d hear it from my teachers all the time (college and graduate school), that self-care was so important and it was something we needed to do more of in order to be the best therapist, coach, counselor, or whatever we wanted to be, that we could be.

Believe it or not I even got told from my acting teacher about the importance of self-care, and that we (her students) needed to be doing it as often as we possibly could.

Self-care has been a popular topic in my life for a while now, and honestly up until about a year ago I wasn’t even the best at it. In fact, I had no idea what self-care was, what it looked like, or what constituted for self-care, that I didn’t even start engaging in it religiously until earlier this year. This was because it took me a while to really understand just exactly what real self-care meant, and to identify what that looked like for me. [Read more…]

It’s not easy living a healthy lifestyle but it’s not really all that hard either.

The way I like to look at it is in regards to what type of lifestyle you want to live. Do you want to a fitness type of lifestyle? An active lifestyle? A specific eating routine or diet that revolves around your lifestyle? Or do you just want to simply start adopting healthier habits that you can incorporate into your lifestyle, no matter what kind of lifestyle that may be?

If you’re looking for the last option then you have come to the right place. I am by far no expert in what it means to live a healthy lifestyle, but I do know what it means to adopt specific habits and routines that make a difference for the better in your life. This includes habits such as making better choices when eating, ensuring that I’m drinking plenty of water, and much more.

In today’s post I’m going to share with you some tips that can help you start living a healthier life now without having to completely change your current lifestyle at all. Check it out below!

4 Reasons You Shouldn’t Be Afraid to Workout

by

Oh my god you guys we’re coming up on the last days of the 30-day fitness challenge! I can’t believe it, seriously I can’t.

First, I want to congratulate you on making this far, or however far you made it. Working out to get yourself in shape isn’t easy. It requires a lot of hard work, dedication, internal motivation, and above all a devoted commitment to yourself. So, whether you stuck out the whole 30 days, you made it through the first week, or you just popped in and out the entire time I’m proud of you!

In fact, I’m so proud of you that I figured I’d help you continue your fitness and wellness journey by gifting you with something special. However, you have to read to the end of the post to see what it is! I promise it’s something good 😊.

But before we jump into that I wanted to share with you 4 reasons why you shouldn’t be afraid to workout. I feel like there is this weird veil that hangs over the fitness community. That those who are serious about fitness look a certain way, eat certain foods, maintain a certain lifestyle, etc. While it is true that what you eat and how active you are will contribute greatly to the results of your workouts, not living up to that ideal fitness lifestyle doesn’t mean you aren’t serious about your fitness.
