The Easiest Way to Start 2016 Off Right!

Eek!! 2016 is almost here! If you’re anything like me, you’ve finally had your fill of the bon-bons and holiday cakes and it’s time to get to work!

New Year. New You.

I love the New Year! A fresh start. Clean slate. Moving on from mistakes or disappointments of 2015, and into new and promising horizons!

Have you chosen your 2016 word of the year yet? Ever done that??
Super easy but super powerful!

Think of an over-arching ONE WORD to describe what you want 2016 to be like for you.
Here’s a list of ideas just to get your gears turning (courtesy of myoneword.org)
See if any of these work for you, and if not, choose your own!

My word for 2016: Liberation.
You want it to be able to apply to all areas of your life, so take your time and choose wisely.

Let me know what you choose, or better yet, head over to my FB group, Worthy To Be Me, and share with us over there! Everyone’s been posting their words and it’s really cool to see what people are resonating with. πŸ™‚

>> Now I promised in the subject line that you can look no further for how to shed that holiday weight. (And I’m right there with ya!)

I’m excited to share with you the launching of my new online program: Lose 10 Pounds in 30 Days…Or Less! I lay out exactly what, when and how to shed those holidays pounds, and then some!

If you’re interested, keep an eye out I’ll be doing a new post when the doors open TOMORROW, if not sooner! But you’ll be the first to know, and then you can gather up some friends to join us as well!

In the meantime, think about your 2016 WORD and share it with me. Can’t wait to hear!

Overcoming Healthy Eating Sabotage [FREE TRAINING]

One of the things I hear and deal with the most when it comes to helping clients (and myself) to overcome is personal self-sabotage.

There are many reasons why we do it – if we dare to look that deep inside – but regardless of the underlying WHY, I’ve found an easy and effective way to begin to recognize it sooner, and train your brain to prevent it from happening again.

In last night’s live call I led you step-by-step into:

  • How you identify the first sign of impending sabotage
  • How you identify the specific food, circumstances and feelings associated with your actions
  • How you rewind and replay the scenario to produce a different outcome
  • How you tap into using the power of visualization for success
  • And how to create a personal affirmation to set you up for success at the next tempting encounter.

You can find it all in my recording from last night’s call and go through the steps as I guide you.

Plus I give you info on:

-Easy grab-and-go snacks when you’re on the run

-Exciting upcoming Fit+Faith events and online program possibilities

-How to get a free strategy session with me

-AND- prayer requests and ending the call in prayer.

I think you’ll love these great insights to prevent self-sabotage and everything else that’s packed inside. Download the recording here.

We get right to work, so have a pen and paper handy. πŸ˜‰

Enjoy, and I look forward to having you on the next one! πŸ™‚

P.S. I’ve opened up just 5 slots for a free strategy session to help you hash out any road blocks or stuck areas of your health. To apply for one of the slots, simply apply here.

There’s only 5 slots available for everyone live on the call last night plus those reading this today, so submit your application right away to snag your spot. Good luck!

 

Healthy Eating Sabotage – How To Beat It Once and For ALL!

Eating healthy can be hard sometimes! Especially if you don’t plan ahead, or there’s an unexpected office party, and for goodness sake the holiday temptations will be at every turn in less than a month!

Sometimes what we need is a perspective shift.

In this video I talk about just that. The perspective shift that’s needed to make navigating those sugary temptations or going on that run so much easier!

Stepping into our calling and responsibility to care for our bodies as the temples of the Holy Spirit they were created for is the most noble of job descriptions we can fulfill.

And that’s the key phrase, “we CAN fulfill.”

It can be done.

And it starts today.

With a decision.

With a calling.

With owning the responsibility.

With stopping the self-sabotage.

With taking joy in God’s creation.

With making better choices.

With choosing to plan ahead.

With choosing to pass the drive-thru.

With taking joy in eating from the earth.

With showing love to your body by keeping it active and healthy.

With each little decision adding up to a healthier body and a healthier you.

I hope you took the 5 minutes to watch the video above, as I’m truly sharing from my heart what each of us are capable of. If not, take that time right now.

Stepping into a healthier lifestyle is really answering the call to love our bodies and show that love to God through our actions.

 

"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies." 1 Cor. 6:19-20
