28/30 Days Detox Challenge

Everyday I am reaching closer and closer to the goals of my challenge. Today I worked out, led by Chief, along with a few of my comrades.

First, let me say it's so important to change your mindset. I didn't want to work out and it was the first thing that came out of my mouth. So to counteract this negative thought, I will begin finding affirmations around working out and start changing my mindset so I can be excited about getting this skinny body whipped back into a canvas.

Anywho, worked out for 45 mins, felt great, about to have a meet and greet with a black-owned prenatal massage therapist, and then go home and spend time with my family. I am trying to alleviate work on Saturdays as I don't give myself days off.

Be the BEST version of yourself daily. Even when it's not your ABSOLUTE best, no one will know the difference 😉

The key to changing your habits and life is your mindset. I challenged myself for 28/30 days to change. The reason why it's conflict is due to my mindset. We as humans tend to lean to things that make us comfortable and when we get uncomfortable when change occurs, we automatically run back to what comforts us. When we do this, we are in exploration of the fixed mindset.

This challenge has made me reflect on my mindset. What I say to myself, how I motivate myself, what I tell myself when I don't accomplish what I set out to do, etc.

Day one, when I realized my lack of planning had already set me up for failure, I could have quit. I could have made excuses to do NOTHING. I could have blamed it on others but instead, I took accountability and responsibilities for my actions and decided to continue to challenge myself, first, by changing my mindset.

It's ok not to be motivated sometimes BUT it's NOT OK to use excuses when you got a goal. Get up and every single day, reach for your goal, changing 1 habit at a time and be patient with yourself along the way.

Divine Rising Family,

Today is 2/6/23 and we are 6 days in. I haven't fully committed myself but each day, I shed a bad habit and begin a good one. The last 2 days I have been consuming my teas. I haven't detoxed just yet because of my cycle but I will begin in another day and begin the detox fully.

Today we are consuming Breathe Easy of The Goddess Collection. I've been drinking this tea and I must say, I am beginning to feel the effects when I am conducting my breath work. I noticed that my breathing was very shallow and taking a deep breath was uncomfortable. I allow all my teas to steep in the sunlight. Drinking richness with the favor of RA.

Staying committed to my goals are challenging and hard but this is why it's called a challenge, it's not meant to be easy. If it's not challenging and developing you, it's not worth your time.

Happy Monday!

Today is 2/3/23
Let's just say being positive has been the catalyst this week because baby...it's been rough.

My Accountability Post 2/1/23

Today was NOT it 🤣 Let's go through what I did wrong first...

1. I woke up a h***y goat 🐐 and fulfilled that desire
2. Mary Jane knocked on my door and I answered
3. I consumed a poor diet today but I am eating so I am not mad
4. Detox'n, I've talked myself out of it because of 1-3

Now the positive portion of my day...
1. I've remained positive and didn't beat myself up for failing today
2. I realized that it's great to have an idea but you have to put the plan in place to execute it
3. Although this was prematurely planned, I am happy I am doing this, I have to start somewhere
4. I got a great s*x work out in this morning 😄
5. I will plan better and each day, I will add to it instead of just doing everything cold turkey.
6. Recited affirmations and stayed positive all day

Moral of the story, take baby steps if you need too, stick the course, be accountable for your flaws and your good, and strive to be a better version of yourself daily. Remember, this is a marathon not a sprint. It took you time to form habits you don't want now, be patient with and love yourself, slow and steady wins the race too.

Stress is the 6th leading cause of death and is known as the "silent killer". Did you know stress contributes to weight gain, loss, unclear thoughts and mindsets, creating ailments in the body, etc.

1 major reason I started this challenge because I have been OVERWHELMING stress from business, to family life, to life itself. I've noticed a lot of aches, pains, and other things in my body that have been directly caused by stress.

Tomorrow, I take my life back from stress!

I've never been this vulnerable in my life and sharing it for the world to see. What the hell has gotten into me? Accountability.

Whether you have a goal of gaining, losing, or maintaining your current weight, it is vital for you to understand your PURPOSE. Today, ✍️ get a journal and write down your purpose for your challenge and the goals or results you expect. FB will be my journal and I hope that you all will encourage me and those that are a part of the challenge as well as hold us accountable.

Today 1/31/23, my purpose of this challenge is to be the very BEST version of myself, elevating to the next level of divine feminine and her being the leading role in how I move throughout life. My goals or results I want to receive are:
