Day 21: Be a Beginner

image



Hi ,


Happy Monday.


Here is what happens when we start a health journey from the perspective of health coaching:


  1. We move from pre-contemplation through contemplation to action. This means - you knew you wanted to change something, and then you decided to take action. For some of you, it was being part of the Healthy Six before and wanting a Reboot again. For others, this is your first time doing this program and it was fresh and new.
  2. You started! You chopped veggies, you cut out sugar, you decided to give booze a miss for a month, and you took action
  3. You sunk. Or, you felt less than inspired. You gravitated back to sugar / alcohol / bread because it is familiar


What do you do?


BECOME A BEGINNER!!!!!


Don't forget what you know! Add to what you don't know! How?


  1. Fasting: Are you fasting every night? There is AMPLE research that proves a 12/14 or 16 hour fast leads to weight loss and stable blood sugar levels. This isn't a practice you can pick up and put down - it is a habit you have to put into place and then stick to.
  2. Water. I can't emphasize this enough. DRINK WATER. Drink Herbal Tea. Make electrolyte water with sea salt and lemon.
  3. Fibre: The Healthy Six pantry emphasizes fiber from veggies, legumes and nuts and seeds.
  4. Protein: This will make you full longer, and takes away sugar cravings
  5. Sleep: We all fall out of the sleep routine. Reinvent your routine tonight!
  6. Exercise: Even if it is FIVE MINUTES. Get your HR elevated!
