I’m so excited that it’s February!

I’ll be honest, starting this new year making my health and wellness a priority was very intimidating in the beginning. However, now that January has come and gone, and I’ve completed my January 2020 Challenge, I can honestly say I’ve never been more excited to see where my health journey will take me next!

It’s no secret that I love working out.

For me it’s never been about my appearance, but always about the way it makes me feel. When I exercise, I always feel energized, much happier, way less fatigued, and stronger than I was the day before. I also find inspiration and motivation to tackle anything life throws my way!

That’s why the next chapter of my health and wellness journey I’m choosing to really focus on increasing all these positive benefits that come from exercising. Mainly because I want to have an endless amount of energy (is that possible?).

In other words, I want to only feel tired because I know I worked my ass off for the day, and therefore only rest when I absolutely need it. I want this and so much more for my overall health, and I’m making this month the official start of it all!

So how I am going to do this? By committing to the PIIT28 and 28 Day Rest Program. [Read more…]

How to Stick to Your Fitness Goals

by

About 3 years ago I made the decision to start working out. This wasn’t about my image or even not liking the way my body looked, it was more so about just wanting to be healthier.

I wanted to live a healthy lifestyle. This to me meant I wanted to eat healthier foods for my body, I wanted to exercise every day, and just be more active on a day to day basis. I always admired this kind of lifestyle for so many reasons.

The main reason being the fact that I believed living a healthy lifestyle showed that you cared about your overall health. I didn’t want to reach my old age and be dealing with the health problems that I see a lot of my family members dealing with. So, I wanted to start taking better care of my health now rather than later.

When I started my healthy lifestyle journey there was so much that I didn’t know, and there’s still a lot that I don’t know. But the one thing I have come to understand so well is the importance of setting goals related to your health, wellness, and any fitness.

Years ago, you wouldn’t have been able to convince me that setting fitness goals was necessary for your health and wellness journey. Now, I know that it is. Having fitness goals is the number one way to keep yourself accountable for everything that you are and are not doing to help you reach those goals.

If you just mindlessly embark on your journey you’ll never know when you’ve reached a life changing milestone (no matter how big or small it is). With goals you are able to track your progress and see just how far you have come. The best part is that it’s also a great way for you to actually see what specifically you are doing that is furthering you along your journey.

Goal setting was something that I started to do about a year ago and I found it harder to commit to then I thought it would be. This was because I didn’t really understand what it meant to have a fitness goal, how to set it, and more importantly how to stick to it. However, with so many trials and errors that I’ve experienced in the past year, I’ve learned a thing or two about how to keep your fitness goals.

And I’m going to share them with you! [Read more…]

How to Increase Your Happiness for Success

by

Let me ask you something. What does it mean to be successful? How do you define success? What does success look like?

These are questions that have some many different answers and it’s because success is and does look different for everyone. But one thing I have always thought was true about success is that it can bring you great happiness, even in the darkest of times.

All my life I have set goals, some that I have accomplished, some that I have abandoned, and some that I am still currently pursuing. All the goals that I have set and achieved thus far in my life have always been for one greater purpose, the sake of my success and happiness.

As I get closer to accomplishing one of my biggest goals, I’ve come to realize something very important.  Success does not equal happiness, but rather when you are happy, success is likely to follow.

What? Mind blown, yes, I know! But it’s so true.

For years I’ve been chasing the idea of what it means to be successful. For me that looked a lot like being financially stable and independent, working a career that I loved and was passionate about, and believing that by achieving all of this I would undoubtably be happy.

However, this past year I’ve learned that this isn’t how happiness works.

Happiness brings about success in many different ways. One thing I have learned for certain is that you can’t chase success in hopes of finding happiness. You have to first be happy in order to gain success. [Read more…]

How to Reduce Stress in Your Everyday Life

by

Let’s face it, we all greet the day with the intention of making it a great one, but the reality is that sometimes things don’t go as we may have planned.

We may get ambushed with a bunch of responsibilities that we were not anticipating, we may find that we aren’t able to engage in activities that we may have been looking forward to, or my personal favorite, that nothing listed on the agenda gets completed for the day.

To be honest when things do not go as planned, I freak out majorly! And by freak out majorly I mean I immediately start having a panic attack and my anxiety and stress levels shoot through the roof.

As you can imagine at this point, I’m a nervous wreck. The younger me would have sworn it was the end of the world, and all my days were quickly coming to an end. The older me knows much better and has learned how to simply roll with the punches.

Since turning into a mad woman when things become out of my control has not resulted in the best results for my health and happiness, I’ve learned how to effectively lower my stress levels when things don’t go as planned. This is such an important skill to have because there really are so many negative health effects that result from stressing.

I’m talking negative health effects such as headaches that seem to never go away, high blood pressure, heart problems, unfavorable skin reactions from the output of negative energy (such as a rash or breaking out in pimples everywhere), stress can further worsen your anxiety, and can even lead to depression.

These are all things that we want to avoid for our health.

When you apply skills and methods that can effectively help you lower your stress levels, you are lowering your chances of experiencing any, plus more, of these negative health effects. And since health is wealth, and I care about your health and want to help you improve it in any way that you possibly can, I’m going to share with you my top ways to reduce stress in your everyday life.

How to Create Balance for Success

by

Are you the type of person who finds that you have a million things to do in one day? Or maybe you’re the type of person who tries to juggle more than you are capable of doing? You know, the kind of person who puts more on their plate than they can handle.

If so no worries my dear friend because I too am just like you.

One thing that I do consistently every week is make a schedule of all the things that need to get done for the week. I even go as far as to write down specific tasks to complete on specific days of the week. While all of this may sound like it helps me stay organized and on top of things, the truth is that sometimes it drives me crazy.

I always find that I have a lot of tasks to complete in the week, and I try to complete as many in a day so that I don’t have as much throughout the week. The result? I’m always stressed, overwhelmed, exhausted, and super unmotivated to do anything.

The solution? Creating a balance.

Something that I’m striving for in the new year is success all around. In other words, I want to be intentional with everything that I do, and give 110% to everything that I set my mind to. I know in order for me to achieve this goal I need to ensure that I am balancing everything in my life to the best of my ability.

It’s important to create balance in your life because it allows for other things in your life to take up space. This can be things such as engaging in more self-care, exercising more, getting out and doing things, spending more time with your family, and even participating in hobbies that you don’t get to do as often as you would like to.

That’s why I’m going to share with you my top ways on how to create balance for success in the new year! [Read more…]
