Get Great at Doing This in 2019

Each morning I do a “Take 5” practice. Sometimes I do a little longer meditation, but if nothing else, I at least do a “Take 5.” “Take 5” is a short, less than 5-minute, guided meditation focused on breathing.

The Most Important Question to Ask Yourself in 2019

Whether you want better health habits, deeper relationships, an organized home (that stays organized), all of the above, or something completely different, it’s going to require asking yourself one very important question. When it comes to this, actress Susan Sarandon hits the nail on the head when she said this.

How to Have a Healthy & Happy 2019

I was thrilled to be asked back on the Fun, Feisty, Fabulous Podcast with co-hosts Karyn & Jean. As always, they asked personal and vulnerable questions when it comes to their own health journey – more specifically this time on how to approach their health in the new year. Here’s a preview of what we covered: • How to think about what's going to work for you this year • How to get past the discouragement of when things are moving slowly and you're not seeing the progress you hoped for • Should you use a scale to weigh yourself this year? • What we humans have a hard time with that we must understand about ourselves if we want to make healthy changes that last • Who to share your successes with, who not to, and why I hope you find this episode helpful as you navigate your own healthy journey in 2019.

4 Questions to Reflect on 2018

Around this time each year, I’m reminded that there are generally two camps of thought on New Year’s Resolutions – those who are into it and those who aren’t. Well, I’m in the “into it” camp. And it’s not because all the New Year’s Resolutions I’ve made in the past I’ve stuck to or came to fruition; rather, it’s because I believe a New Year’s Resolution is nothing more than a promise you make to yourself to improve in some desired way this coming year.

I’d been thinking about starting this podcast for a long time, but it wasn’t the right time for me yet. I didn’t intend to start one this year either, but similar to how I moved from being a personal trainer to a coach, something was stirring inside of me and I knew it was the right time.

Your Buffet of Thoughts

/
Born and raised in Southern California, Las Vegas was a common weekend vacation destination. When I think of “Vegas,” what comes to mind are lots of lights, slot machines, noise, people, and of course, big, bountiful buffets. If you’ve ever been to a “Vegas buffet,” you’ll know what I’m talking about – it’s like foods from all over the world (in amounts that could feed a small country) come together to provide an array of options to satisfy every taste.

Staying Focused this Fall Using My 3x3x3 Method

The fall season can be one of the hardest times of the year to stay on track with your health habits, yet this is the worst time to quit on yourself. The last thing you want is to use the fall to give up and give in to bad habits and behaviors that are going to put on the pounds and send you on an unhealthy tailspin for the rest of the year.

Part 4: EXERCISE – The “Telling Month” of October

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been sharing one important (and totally doable) suggestion per week, around each health habit you’ll want to stay on top of this month (Sleep, Food, Mood, and Exercise).
