"The ability to be in the present moment is a major component of mental wellness." – Abraham Maslow

Are you too busy chasing the “future version” of yourself?👇

Focusing on the future and on where you’re headed is KEY to growing and hitting your goals…

But not if it’s at the expense of living in the present moment.

I learned this the hard way…

I remember when I first [talk about a time when you were working towards a health/fitness goal and got caught up in chasing the “future version” - ex. “I remember when I first got back into the gym after a long break after having my kids, and I got so hung up on seeing results.”]

After a while, I realized I was missing the whole point.

I was so caught up in “getting there” that I missed how far I had already come!

So I asked myself things like…

😴 Is it getting easier to sleep through the night?
🧘 Are my joints feeling better?
🍏 Am I craving less junk?

Thinking like this completely changed my perspective.

More importantly? It made me feel better “in the present moment” instead of waiting for some far-off future to feel good.

Ever wonder why you feel soooo tired after lunch some days, and what you can do to stop that from happening?

1️⃣ First, you should know that your body is PROGRAMMED to feel sleepy between 1-3 p.m…. so some fatigue is normal.

2️⃣ But there ARE ways to lessen that fatigue:

Don't overeat at lunch
Go easy on heavy starchy carbs - they can make your blood sugar yo-yo
Be aware that protein-heavy lunches might make you sleepy (looking at your, turkey and dairy!)
Soak up some sunshine after lunch - bright light can keep your energy up
If possible, grab a quick 10-20 minute catnap
Keep up with regular workouts for better nighttime sleep quality

It's amazing how these simple shifts can boost your energy, digestion, and focus for the rest of the day!

Want an easy hack to slash fat calories from your lunch? 🥗

Do this: Next time you eat a salad, swap "dressing" for "dipping."

Instead of drowning your healthy greens in calorie-rich dressing, try this:

Order your dressing on the side
Dip your fork in the dressing before each bite
Enjoy your salad bite by bite!

Boom! 💥 You'll still get that perfect flavor kick, BUT…

You'll save yourself from eating a bunch — and by that I mean HUNDREDS — of excess calories. (Seriously, depending on the dressing, we're talking major savings here!)

It's these little tricks that add up to big results over time.

The funny thing about balance is that as soon as you feel like you’ve achieved it…

P**f! It’s gone! 😆

The truth is that perfect balance doesn't exist. It's more about making small adjustments every day.
Some days you might:
Nail that workout 🏋️‍♀️
Other days, life happens and you grab a quick walk 🚶‍♀️
Sometimes you meal prep like a boss 🥗
Other times, it's whatever's in the fridge (so make sure it’s healthy!) 🍽️
The key? Focus on consistency, not perfection. Small steps add up!
What's one small thing you do to keep some balance in your routine?

Why it's important to cool down after a workout.
Cooling down after a workout is as important as warming up. After physical activity, your heart is still beating faster than normal, your body temperature is higher, and your blood vessels are widened. This means if you stop too fast, you could feel sick or pass out. A cool-down after physical activity allows a gradual decrease at the end of the episode.

It’s good to stretch when you’re cooling down because your limbs, muscles and joints are still warm. Stretching can help reduce the buildup of lactic acid, which can lead to muscles cramping and stiffness.

Tips:
Reduce your walking speed for 5–10 minutes to allow your heart rate to slow down.
Stretching:
Hold each stretch 10 to 30 seconds. If you feel you need more, stretch the other side and return for another set of stretching.
The stretch should be strong, but not painful.
Do not bounce.
Breathe while you’re stretching. Exhale as you stretch, and inhale while holding the stretch.
Do your body a favor. Take time to gradually progress into your workout and cool down when you’re done.
