“Just eat healthy and hit the gym.” Is it ever

“Just eat healthy and hit the gym.” Is it ever that simple? For everyone?

The truth is, our relationship with food has always been a bit complicated. Food has been scarce, plentiful, a source of joy, of comfort, and more recently; anxiety.
Human beings are wired to find pleasure in eating and resting. Constant restriction of food when we are hungry is against our very nature; devoting hours upon hours of time at the gym to obtain a “perfect” body isn’t something everyone can or wants to do.
There is a certain type of balance for each person. We are all different. Our circumstances, our emotional rollercoasters, the ups and the downs, ins and outs of our lives all dictate how much of that balance we can manage to achieve.
We all want strong, healthy and able bodies. We all know the “ideal” way to get them. It’s inspiring- and equally intimidating- to see people on social media who always seem to eat healthy and work out effortlessly. But remember that we rarely know the whole story behind the pictures: we don’t see the difficulties, the occasional missed workouts, and the inevitable off days.
Nobody is 100% on track all the time.

We ALL veer off our health and wellness tracks sometimes.
What really and truly ALWAYS counts is doing our best to find our very own, unique kind of balance.
To get over the should haves and would haves, and stop comparing ourselves to others.
There are a thousand different paths we can take to reach our wellness goals.

Choose the one that makes you feel constantly motivated, confident, and most importantly- happy!

And don’t forget to be kind to yourself when there’s a bump in your journey.
It will pass, and you will get there.
So just keep going.

One thing that always gets me excited about trying

Today I’m going to talk about the bad days. Tho

Today I’m going to talk about the bad days.
Those inevitable periods of time when we just.can’t.anything.

The messy days.
The ones when the kid wakes up with a fever.
We find an extra wrinkle that wasn’t there the day before.
We don’t get that job.
We lose another friend.
We feel under-appreciated and overwhelmed.
Those are the days when every molehill looks like a mountain we can never climb, and every health goal seems more impossible to reach than ever.
Our internal voice whispers, “What’s the point?”, “This is never going to work” and “I can’t do this and I don’t care anymore.” And you know what? It’s okay to listen to it. Listen carefully and answer back, “Yes, I’m having a bad day and I cannot find it in me to feel enthusiastic about that run or eat perfectly right this minute. Which is why I’m going to eat as well as I can and take a walk but not stress if I’m not 100% on track. I will be okay and this is going to work because I’m not giving up and my well-being is worth it.” And tomorrow is bound to be a new, healthier, and much better day❤️ #SelfCare
