This is keeping me from achieving physical health in a way. I’m also dealing with some electro-physiological heart issues, hEDS, and a some eye issues. I literally feel like my body is falling apart right now. BUT, I’m keeping on. I need to rehab my shoulder and do some joint friendly exercises and stretches. I think this will help me to feel better mentally as well. I’m still fasting and drinking water, I’m just feeling overwhelmed with family issues and life in general. Y’all pray for me 😭

It’s been crazy busy getting ready to deliver Christmas gifts to our moms today. I knew dinner would be tough. And the temptation to eat crap high! I planned and prepped and my son made the soup. And baked the sour dough bread I had made. So when I came home from work we could eat and go and not eat crap! 🙌🏽🎉🎉🎊🎊

“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.” ~Zig Ziglar TAKING ACTION: ✅ Share your weekly win—big or small—below! Let’s celebrate and push ourselves forward! 🎉 The small wins matter, friends. Celebrating them along the way is arguably the only way to stay motivated. When you celebrate, even the smallest of wins, you quite literally change your brain a little at a time. Why is this important? ⬇️ It’s important because changing your brain is the key to becoming who you want to be. As the quote says above, “What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals”. He’s not saying achieving your goals isn’t important. He’s simply saying that who you’re becoming in the process is the most important. 💯 The key thing to note here is that you can’t become someone different if you don’t start to think differently. A good way to start thinking differently is by committing to celebrating all of your accomplishments—and that is why we’re going to celebrate our wins today! 🎉 Let’s hear ‘em all! 💥

“Understanding our relationship to eating cultivates a lot of insights and helps us start living our highest potential.” ~Natasha Pantovic TAKING ACTION: ✅ Do you understand the topic of mindful eating a little better after this week? Do you see how understanding your patterns is tremendously helpful? Share your thoughts below! This week was all about mindful eating, and the reason I chose this topic at this particular time is that during busier-than-normal seasons, mindfulness can be the one strategy that helps us stay on track. Not only that, but the reality is that we should ALL understand why we make the decisions we make. Understanding our thoughts and actions is the first step toward conquering our struggles. 💯 So how do you start eating mindfully? According to the website, 28 Mindful Eating Quotes to Honor Your Body , this is a good place to start. ⬇️ 🧘‍♀️Start with a couple of deep breaths. It slows your nervous system and brings your focus to the present moment. 🧘‍♀️Think about what you’re about to put in your mouth and why. 🧘‍♀️Consider if you’re genuinely hungry or just eating out of habit. 🧘‍♀️Do you enjoy what you’re about to eat, or are you shoving it down in an attempt to please other people’s expectations about your body? 🧘‍♀️The answers to those questions should impact your decision. I hope you continue to practice mindfulness as you move through your journey. It’s a deep strategy that can absolutely change the trajectory of your journey and your chances of success! 💥
