Kristen Seiff, Nutritionist

Are you living life in a big and bold way, giving the world all you have to offer?

Or are you playing it safe, making sure to stay between the lines?

Most of us stick to the safe and familiar in our daily routines.

We live according to other people’s supposed expectations and rules.

We act like people pleasers instead of being our authentic selves.

Each of us has so much to offer, and yet we hide it because of fear.

Fear of offending someone, going against social norms, being different, being judged.

But we weren’t meant to play small.

We were meant to be unique, a bit quirky even, and to shake things up.

What's one thing you can do today to shake things up by being more YOU?

Stoked to have been a part of the Women’s self defense class at last weekend! I believe all women should have at least a base level understanding of how to defend themselves; seeing over 60 women show up to learn was amazing. 💪🏼We will be hosting another one soon, if interested, let me know!

➡️ Regulates body temperature ⁣
➡️ Keeps joints lubricated ⁣
➡️ Prevents infections⁣
➡️ Delivers nutrients to cells ⁣

➡️ lose weight⁣
➡️ get fit⁣
➡️ improve our health⁣
➡️ make money⁣
➡️ maintain a relationship⁣
➡️ do well in school⁣
➡️ excel at work ⁣
➡️ have fun⁣
⁣
– HOWEVER – we do not know HOW to make these things our lifestyle and stick with them. This is where mindset comes in. 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘴𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵.⁣

⁣⁣
Health, according to the World Health Organization, is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity." ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This is something that I work on with my clients. We do more than “eat this, not that,” and “here’s your workout for the day;” it’s all about living a healthy, well-balanced lifestyle. By stepping out of a reactive approach and into a proactive approach, we can actually feel good all the time and prevent issues that might otherwise have come up in the future. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
An ancient tradition that embraces this, and a topic I’d like to introduce you to, is Ayurveda. Ayurveda roughly translates as “the science of longevity” or “the sacred knowledge of life.” ⁣⁣
At its root, Ayurveda is a holistic tradition and way of living that can help each of us to claim and celebrate our capacity for wellness. Ayurveda can help us:⁣⁣
▪️Sync up with our truest inner nature⁣⁣
▪️Honor and develop our strengths⁣⁣
▪️Hone in on our challenge areas⁣⁣
▪️Redirect detrimental tendencies⁣⁣
▪️Maintain balance in the face of adversity⁣⁣
⁣⁣
In other words, Ayurveda is not simply about taking an herbal formula and waiting for the results. Instead, Ayurveda encourages you to be an active participant in your own journey toward healing, which is what I’m all about! ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Being healthy is not one small compartment of your life, it has a role in every aspect of your life. What job you choose (and how much stress comes with it), what you do with your free time, what your relationships look like, what foods you put in your body, and how present you are in your day to day life are all just a few pieces of the puzzle. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If this resonates with you and you’d like to start being healthier, shoot me a message and we can talk about what your first steps should be. ⁣⁣

For a while, everyone was talking about how important the timing of your meals was. It was believed that 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 you ate changed how your body processed your food and stored your energy. It was said that eating late caused you to retain more calories as fat, so the calories “counted as more.” ⁣
⁣
This just isn’t true. ⁣
⁣⁣⁣
𝗪𝐇𝐀𝐓 you eat and 𝐇𝐎𝗪 𝐌𝐔𝐂𝐇 you eat are WAY more important than 𝗪𝐇𝐄𝐍 you eat. ⏰⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
👇🏼Some reasons that this myth gained traction:⁣⁣⁣
𝟏) 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞. People who eat later tend to consume more calories than those who eat earlier. More calories = more body fat. ⁣⁣⁣
𝟐) 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬. Snack foods tend to be a more likely choice as the evening rolls in. Evenings are also when emotional eating tends to occur. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
𝐁𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐦 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞: Eat only if and when you’re hungry. If you're hungry at night, EAT. The calories don't count as more. Just choose healthy options, and don't overdo it. ⁣⁣⁣

Today I want to brag on my client, Ileiry . ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Ileiry came to me having lost weight in the past, but like many of us, didn’t know how to keep it off. She was in the cycle of being on or off of a diet, on or off of a program, and struggled to maintain long term. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Last time she lost weight, she was miserable: constantly hungry, tired, stressed, anxious, obsessed with food and her size/body composition… It was not a healthy place to be. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Since working together, she is a brand new person. By approaching this from a healthy angle and making it a lifestyle, she has not only been able to lose the weight, but also to feel good while doing it. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Ileiry has: ⁣⁣
➡️Gone from a size 18 down to a 14 (and is still moving!)⁣⁣
➡️Lost 28 pounds ⁣⁣
➡️Figured out her food allergies and intolerances ⁣⁣
➡️Lowered her anxiety ⁣⁣
➡️Decreased her appetite ⁣⁣
➡️Gained control over her food cravings ⁣⁣
➡️Lost a significant number of inches, especially around the belly area⁣⁣
➡️Increased her pace and distance she is able to run⁣⁣
➡️Increased the intensity and amount of time she can exercise⁣⁣
➡️Learned how to maintain this lifestyle and stay in a healthy physical and mental state⁣⁣
⁣⁣
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐠𝐢𝐫𝐥 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞!!! 🔥⁣⁣

“My body isn’t changing!”⁣
⁣
I hear this complaint all the time. What they’re doing isn’t working. ⁣
⁣
Whether the goal is fat loss, muscle gain, increased cardiovascular fitness, improved energy levels, or any other feature under the sun, quite often the results are slow, not what we hoped for, or simply not there at all. ⁣
⁣
If you’re looking to make a change, the first step you need to take is in your diet. ⁣
⁣
There are 2 main components of diet we need to focus on: ⁣
➡️ What we are eating⁣
➡️ How much we are eating⁣
⁣
Unfortunately, most of the dieting world focuses only on how much you’re eating, when in reality, what you are eating is much more important. ⁣
⁣
❔So what should you be eating? ⁣
⁣
Well, this is different for everyone. Depending on your body composition, your lifestyle and activities, and a few other factors, there is some variability here. However, there are a few things that apply across the board. Most importantly, you should be eating real whole foods, no added sugars, no additives or preservatives, no hormones… REAL food, fresh fruits and veggies, lean meats, whole grains, nuts and seeds. This is the best place to begin your journey. ⁣
⁣
❔And how much should you be eating? ⁣
⁣
Again, this is different for everyone. Reese Whitherspoon and Michael Phelps have very different caloric needs, obviously. So how do you know how much food is the right amount for you? If you’re interested in learning, shoot me a message, I’d be happy to break it down with you. ⁣
⁣
And if you want to find out what foods are best for you, shoot me a message, again, I’m happy to help you here. ⁣
⁣
Happy 🐪 day, friends. ⁣
