"Believe In Yourself...Accomplish Anything"...
Believe In Yourself…Accomplish Anything…
Sounds easy enough right?…
Maybe it is?…
Let’s dig in and find out how! :)
We all see the signs after a natural disaster or some kind of tragic event …”We believe in _____(insert local town or city), or “ ______( insert name, town, state, etc) Strong”.
And this is great. It helps people feel better about the current icky situation by belonging to a group or tribe and not feeling left out or have to feel with emotions they can’t handle by themselves.
And that is perfectly fine if that is what you need too deal with something.
But what if you “Believed” or were “Strong” with yourself, and it didn’t take an event or someone else telling you that you were?
Sounds Epic to me!
We will discuss how to Believe and be strong with yourself in this blog post today.
Here is the roadmap...
Finding...And Living Your Truth...
Finding And Living Your Truth...
It sounds simple right? Just find your truth, and then apply it to your life?
If it was that easy society would not be obesely overweight, hooked on prescription drugs, addicted to alcohol, and using a device as a digital babysitter.
Let’s do some unpacking... I’ll start with my journey to my truth...
We are conditioned from birth to react for acceptance. If you did something you weren’t suppose to you were yelled at, or your hand slapped. As an infant you knew this didn’t feel good, and felt icky.
So after a few times of feeing icky, you stopped.
I understand that it is different when you are barely walking and reach for a hot stove and your parents slap your hand, etc.
I am only referring to the feeling that is established at a very young age of acceptance, and making others happy.
Back to my journey...
I was born in a small town in Indiana in 1979. Yes I am 41 at the...

Intermittent Fasting...The Ultimate Weight Loss Tool?
Intermittent Fasting...The ultimate Weight Loss Tool?...
Let’s find out!...
So we can gather from the definitions above that intermittent fasting occurs at irregular intervals, it is not continuous or steady (or is it :), and that you abstain from all or some food or drink...sweet!
That was easy!
Let’s dig a little deeper than what the dictionary is telling us...
Intermittent fasting is basically a selected time frame you choose to consume your daily macros (calories from fat, carbs, and protein).
There is more involved in the process, and some good decisions need to be done before hand that will help insure you achieve the healthy results you are seeking.
But don’t overthink, or be intimidated by the whole process. You are basically eating good, healthy, food/fuel, in an allotted amount of time. Sweet!...Easy breezy!
Let’s start at the beginning...
I have been utilizing...
"How Strong Is Your Core?" The super importance of having a strong core!
“How Strong Is Your Core?” The super importance of having a strong core!
Well?…How strong is your core?
Could you out run a threat if it was charging after you?
If it was a matter of life or death…how would you fair against your foe?
And yes, it helps to have a strong core to run fast, if your core is strong, everything is strong and your body is balanced in most cases.
I know we don’t have to run from wild animals that much anymore, but it gives you some food for thought anyway.
Your health is the most important, and probably the most neglected thing in your life.
You are so “busy” with distractions that you forget about Loving and taking care of yourself.
Remember what they say on commercial flights…to put your oxygen mask on first, before helping others with their mask.
This makes perfect sense, think about it. If you are...
Detox Your Mind Body And Soul
It's time to Detox YOUR LIFE!
Yes it is! Aren’t you tired of all the negativity going around?!……Ewww.
It seems a lot of people want to clean up their life and be healthy, but aren’t sure where to start. Or start in the wrong places. Which is sooo easy to do. For example, people want to lose weight, so they buy a gym membership, go for a couple weeks, then stop going.
They stop going because they are sore and tired. They are sore and tired because they didn’t change their nutrition.
You can’t eat a Big mac, and go run an hour of cardio and expect to feel good.
Do you pick up what Im putting down?
You have to get rid of the icky negative first, to make room for the goodness. Two things cannot occupy the same space.
Let's start there, cleaning up your nutrition.
It has taken me many years and a lot of trial and error to hone into my...
"Seven Ways To Limitless Sleep"
Seven Ways To Limitless Sleep...
Sleep is such an important part of our lives. The old saying...”I’ll sleep when I’m dead” is such an icky way to live, and will get you to that outcome quicker for sure.
Your body and mind require adequate recovery time.
You wouldn’t run your car engine wide open all day long would you? What do you think the end result will be?
You will probably be walking to work because you no longer have a running automobile.
The same is true with your body and mind. You can’t run too hard for too long without something giving in. Your body is very resilient, and always protecting itself from danger and too much fatigue. Something will give for sure...your health. No fun.
Proper sleep and recovery is just as important as working out and good nutrition. It is part of living a healthy life.
Let's examine 7 easy ways you can help your slumber effort and wake up refreshed ready to approach the day and live your...
"Adjust Your Attitude...Change Your Latitude"...Stop Holding Yourself Back From Your Own Greatness
Adjust Your Attitude… Change Your Latitude…Stop Holding Yourself Back From Your Own Greatness…
Yes!!! Attitude is soooo important!
Your attitude is a billboard of your mindset and beliefs. Let me repeat that statement… Your attitude is a billboard of your mindset and beliefs.
Let's unpack that statement.
Here we go…
When you see a billboard you are reading a message. That message can be positive or negative. And the billboard can have many different audiences.
Let’s start with the most important audience…you.
Your body is always looking for information and energy, to see what the next move is, what and how to feel, and how to react.
There is energy and information in everything and anything we do. Every thought we think, every breath we take, every move we make.
This energy can be positive or negative.
Remember that you are in charge of you. You...
"Earthing"...Get Back In Touch With Mother Nature"
Earthing...Get Back In Touch With Mother Nature...
So what is Earthing you ask?
Lets see what google says...Earthing: ( or grounding) refers to the discovery of benefits- including better sleep and reduced pain-from walking barefoot outside or sitting, working, or sleeping indoors connected to conductive systems that transfer the Earths electrons from the ground to the body.
That is a pretty good description of Earthing! Way to go G!
Lets dive into some of the many benefits of Earthing,
Here we go...
First off I do have to admit that as I am typing this blog post my hands may be busy on my Mac book, but my feet are calm and relaxing on my “Earthing Mat” I have under my desk.
I also have an identical Earthing mat in front of my Joovv elite (red light therapy) so I can be grounding myself while I am receiving all of the Awesome benefits from getting Joovvy.
I also have Earthing pillow cases on my bed. This is huge! You can totally be grounding yourself and...
"The Importance Of Water... Mother Natures Gift To A Healthy Life"
The importance of water…
Mother nature’s gift to a healthy life…
That statement pretty much sums up the vital role that clean water plays in a healthy life.
Water flushes out waste from your body, it helps with brain function, and regulates body temperature.
This is only the beginning……Lets dig in…
Water prevents dehydration. You are losing water every time you sweat, have a bowel movement, or urinate.
So, if you are training super hard make sure you stay in front of your hydration. Severe dehydration can lead to seizures, kidney failure, and to the swelling of your brain.
None of that sounds like a good time to me! Holy cow!
Proper water intake will keep you in a good mood as well.
When you get dehydrated, confusion and fatigue can set in. Dehydration can also lead to anxiety, which is sooo not good for anyone.
Water is a great hydrator for the skin as well! If you get out of the shower,...
