The Key Step to Overcoming Failure

The Key Step to Overcoming Failure


Have you ever quit on yourself? Told yourself you were going to do something and didn’t follow through? We probably all have at one time or another. I know I have. The important part of this is not to beat yourself up, but to have an effective plan to get you back on track. 

Here’s a key strategy to help. It’s called the “If… then… statement.”  These statements help you get ready for whatever happens.  Things will inevitably pop up, but with these statements, you will be better prepared for the unexpected.

For example, “If I eat one unhealthy meal, then I will make sure it’s NOT two.”

“If I miss one Krav workout, then I will make sure it’s NOT two."  "If I am out of town, then I will make sure to practice or attend class virtually.”

"If I forget my computer at work that has my Wellness Wednesday saved on it (like I did today), then I will remain calm and write another one (like I am doing now)! Honestly, I wanted to cry, but I asked myself what good would that do. Just get the job done and that is what's important. 

We all make mistakes, that's part of being human, but what do you do after the dilemma occurs? That makes all the difference. 

Remember one bad meal is not the problem. It's when you continue to eat unhealthy food. And if you can't seem to get back on track, get some help with this. 

It takes a strong person to recognize their weaknesses and do something about them. Revel in the progress you're making and Remember baby steps are still progress. 

Consistency matters and what are YOU Doing MOST of the time? Is it getting YOU Closer to Wellness?  Slow and steady can aid in your success. 

It's about average speed, not top speed for short periods of time. I've seen patients yo-yo their weights with fad diets. It is always better to lose small amounts of weight over the long haul and keep it off long term, rather than lose the weight quickly, only to regain it right back (and sometimes more).    

Now it's YOUR turn to create some If... Then... Statements with real life scenarios to promote YOUR Health, when do you fall off course? What can YOU DO about it? 

What will work for YOU?  Remember to DO YOU! Submit at least one "If....then statement"  to enter a chance to win a $50 gift card. Text Drew your "If.. then.." statement to 813-226-7630.

Can Plug-ins Make YOU Sick and Fat?

  Can Fragrances (e.g. perfumes, colognes, air fresheners)  Make YOU SICK & FAT? Did you know the scent within many perfumes and colognes along with plug-ins (and many other household and beauty products have chemical fragrances or parfums in their ingredients i.e., Febreze, Lysol, Clorox Bleach, Dawn, Tide, Irish Spring, Fabuloso etc) which contain many harmful chemicals. According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG.org), many of the chemicals in these synthetic fragrances contain phthalates, which can disrupt hormones, worsen asthma, allergies, lead to headaches, fatigue, weight gain (as these chemicals get stored in the fat), weaken the immune system, and even possibly cause cancer. What to do?   Use natural products.  For not much more money, you can get products from Seventh Generation (SeventhGeneration.com), Ecos (ecos.com) etc. that don’t contain many of these harmful chemicals. These ecofriendly products can smell nice and be just as effective at eliminati

How to Relieve Pain Long Term & Naturally

Image
  How to Relieve Pain Long Term & Naturally Our body is connected (as you know!), but when we see a traditional doc, they may only focus on the specific body part for which you are having a problem. For example, when I saw my neurosurgeon for neck pain, they only looked at my neck. I have a history of many ankle sprains. Once I addressed strengthening my ankles, which I never thought to do because they didn't hurt, my neck pain improved. The chiropractor explained my "weak ankles likely turned in my hips and shoulders, which likely affected my neck". Once I strengthened my ankles and stretched my hips and shoulders more, my neck pain improved (without the surgery). I've seen many patients with knee pain where the cause of the their pain was related to tight hips or problems with their feet (which they told me was never addressed before). The great part is they are improving and feeling better and are not taking their pain medicines any longer (e.g. T
