The Mind-Body Connection
There is scientific proof that that the mind and the body need to work together in order function at our best and that’s what I want to share with you today, The Mind-Body Connection. Your mind is constantly taking in information all day long and processing it, but what about your body? Your body doesn’t have thoughts, and it can’t process outside information. The mind needs a way of telling the body what is happening so it can therefore act accordingly. Enter the Mind-Body Communication System. Tune in to learn what exactly is the Mind-Body Connection and why it’s important, and two ways we miss use and interrupt this connection…

Victim Mentality
Today I want to discuss something that typically gets in the way of us going “all in”. Something that keeps us stuck and prevents us from creating the results we want. It also keeps us from experiencing joy. In fact, it causes the opposite of joy. It creates a lot of resentment, bitterness, sadness, hopelessness, and sometimes even anger. I’m talking about Victim Mentality. Victim Mentality is just a habit. Tune into today’s podcast to learn how to break it.

The Joy Experiment
Your life reveals itself to you when you take the time to notice it. Joseph Smith Jr. said that “Happiness is the object and design of our existence.” We were created to be happy and to have joy. This is our normal state. So, what do we do when we’re not feeling the joy? In this episode, I share the 30-day experiment I recently embarked on to increase the amount of joy in my life. My hope is that if you’re feeling low, not like yourself, or stuck in a rut you might initiate a 30-day Joy Experiment of your own. Grab your free How to Breakup With Emotional Eating Ultimate Guide.

5 Ways to Have More Body Love
The way we think about and view our body matters. It matters because when we have a positive body image (or what I’m choosing to call body love), we feel comfortable in our body and happy with the way we look. And when we’re comfortable and happy, then we are able to be in tune with what our body really needs (physically and emotionally). We treat our body well and take care of it instead of beating it up, punishing it with strict diets, disordered eating, intense workouts, or overeating in an attempt to numb out all our emotional distress with food. Here are 5 ways you can begin to…

Stop Buffering
: Buffering is when we use external things to change how we feel emotionally. It can be anything that serves as a protective barrier from having to fully experience our lives and the sometimes intense emotions that accompany it. It’s something we do to keep from fully experiencing our lives, to hide from reality, to procrastinate, to not show up and face the music. We’re mostly buffer because we feel entitled to feel happiness and pleasure all of the time. We are constantly bombarded with suggestions of ways to do this: You should go eat something You should go buy something You should go watch something These are all FALSE PLEASURES…

Your Past
One of the best pieces of advice I’ve ever heard is from Dan Sullivan, who said: “You get to take from your past what you want and you get to leave the rest of it behind.” Are you beating yourself up for past mistakes? Berating yourself for things that you did or didn’t do or things you allowed to happen to you? Spending most of your time in your past can be very painful. It doesn’t matter if it’s 20 years ago or just a few days ago. Revisiting the past is usually not helpful. Remember the past is over. What’s done is done. We can’t change the past, no…

Self-Made Prison

You’ve tried program after program, Read diet book after diet book, Self-help post after self-help post None of them work long-term or maybe not at all. You end up feeling more stuck. What if I told you there is a way out? What if I told the key to unlocking the prison cell is YOUR MINDSET. The mind is like a very powerful computer. The things you focus on are what your mind seeks to create for you. At some point and to no fault of your…

Weaknesses
I recently learned an amazing concept from my coach that has changed my life. She taught me that we all have strengths and weaknesses. We were born with them. They’re part of our genetics, our DNA, who we are. Our weaknesses are patterns in our personality type, our natural way of doing and thinking things. The things we came to earth prewired with. Weaknesses are different than bad habits. Habits are things like yelling at our kids, or overeating. Habits are not an engrained part of our DNA. They are something that we’ve learned along the way, and because we’ve learned these behaviors we can completely unlearn these behaviors. The…
