He wasn’t told to go, he didn’t ask to go. He just got up and went to the alter all on his own. We are so beyond proud 🥹 😭♥️ Hallelujah 🙌

“Understanding our relationship to eating cultivates a lot of insights and helps us start living our highest potential.” ~Natasha Pantovic TAKING ACTION: ✅ Comment MINDFUL below if you’re excited about learning more about mindful eating next week! This topic is going to be so beneficial during the holiday season! We’ve had a big week, friends, as we’ve discussed why the holidays are a great time to focus on amping up your metabolism so that it can work most efficiently for you. Your metabolism is responsible for many things, but the reality is that if it doesn’t have enough food (energy) or muscle mass, its role in burning fat is put on the back burner. That’s why utilizing this time (when you most likely will consume more food overall) is great for focusing on maintenance or even a small surplus. If you do it correctly, don’t worry—you won’t gain much fat (if any). With that said, focusing on lifting heavier and building muscle during this time is also an important piece of the puzzle. If you’re going to take advantage of eating more, make sure you’re putting that energy to good use by challenging yourself in the gym. Again, food and muscle tissue are both important when it comes to having an optimal fat-burning metabolism. 💯 As I mentioned earlier in the week, we’re also going to talk about another important topic starting tomorrow—and that’s mindful eating.

“Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others.” ~Booker T. Washington TAKING ACTION: ✅ Comment GIVE below in the comments if you’re excited to give back this coming week! We’ll discuss some ideas in the coming days. As you already know, we’re focusing on mindset during the holidays—specifically regarding your ability to expand your capacity and gratitude. We’ve talked a bit about how gratitude aids in your overall health, but there’s still one question— How does the act of giving back help us with a positive mindset throughout the holiday season? Well, friends, I’m glad you asked! ⬇️ Did you know the act of giving produces a chemical response within your brain? That’s right! When you give to others, you increase the following “feel-good” chemicals: ✨Serotonin - regulates your mood ✨Dopamine - gives you a sense of pleasure ✨Oxytocin - creates a sense of connection with others Obviously, when we mentally feel good, we make better choices regarding our nutrition and workout habits—and vice versa. When our nutrition and fitness habits are on point, we mentally feel better! 💯 ⬇️OPTIONAL READING (It’s a good one today!)⬇️ Giving Is Good For You | Psychology Today Take a moment to see what’s coming up in our group this week. ⬇️ - group zoom tonight at 6pm CDT / 7pm EST
