Body Habit Rescue | Mom Health and Fitness, Burnout, Self-Care, Mindset, Strategic Habits and Routines

I read a statistic recently that blew my mind: “the frequency of sex among moms with partners has also declined since last year, with 54% of moms reporting that they are having less sex than they were a year ago… 60% are having sex twice a month or less.” Not only are we trading physical intimacy with our partners for sleep, I also read, “Moms are finding other ways to prioritize self-care, with 51% reporting they prioritize sleep over socializing with friends and family.” If we're honest, the issue here is NOT sleep, it is exhaustion. In today's episode, I'm talking about how we prioritize sleep AND have a healthy sexual relationship and friendships!

Why do some goals succeed and some goals fail? This is a BIG question with a lot of answers, but at the core of the answer is whether we have given the goal a fair chance.

Are you looking forward to OR dreading the holiday season? Holidays can be such an uplifting time for many, and it can be a really challenging time for many.

When's the last time you came away from social media feeling welcomed, loved, accepted, feeling seen - even in areas you may not be proud of? This experience - of being welcomed, loved, accepted, supported - is called friendship. It's TRUE friendship. Experiencing friendship with people - not just a place to dump or be dumped on - but a place of exchange and safety - this is something, both a place and a skill, that we can develop over time. If you are on social media, you are part of 60.49% of the global population participation in this online nation. That's 4.9 billion people around the world! Social media is killing our relationships and our mental health (which directly affects our physical health) - evidence-based research proves heightened anxiety, depression, loneliness. In today's episode, I will talk about how to experience friendship and manage the social media allure.

One of our biggest energy drains during the day is distractions! We are pulled in a hundred different directions, and none of them are supporting our values or goals or moving any balls down any fields. Do you feel me? In the overwhelm of all the hats we wear, we need to be able to take back our focus and regain our energy and health. Today, I'm sharing three ways I guard my focus throughout my day.

Did you know that gathering motivation is the WORST way to build a new healthy habit? It doesn't matter how many times you like a video on Instagram or how many vision ideas you add to your Pinterest board, motivation alone will fail us if we are waiting to catch the wave into action. It's because motivation is just another name for intentions. It is great to have good motivations for WHY we do what we do. But DOING the thing, over and over again, getting better and better at it, doesn't come from motivation. It comes from taking action. In today's episode, I talk about how motivation is the most common hurdle I see when people decide they want to go after bigger goals in their health.

Regular movement is a core, healthy habit. BUT, getting to 10,000 steps a day is almost impossible without devoting a large chunk of time to movement. Although it's an out-of-the-box idea, I preach that moving all day is possible. AND we can do more, better, when we break things up into smaller increments.

Implementing healthy habits can take a huge amount of focus and determination. It sometimes feels like busy work - taking time to figure out what's wrong and what needs to change, pausing everything to get life right. But sometimes, when you pause for a moment and then press play again on life, it all seems to fall apart… again. Life doesn't come with pause buttons!

What brings you joy? Simple question, but many of us listening to this would struggle to figure this out if we were put on the spot to name 3 to 5 things that bring us joy. In reaching for better health, this is less obvious but one of the most central elements of creating healthy habits - we must find joy in the choices we make!

In the wellness world, we are weathering a huge shift in supporting people's goals. With the massive surge of body positivity during the Covid-19 quarantine, we have seen a huge swing back into the direction of dieting and weight loss. Truth is, we can be grateful for our bodies and struggle to see the beauty of our bodies. And if we're honest, in the food category, our body positivity may sound something like “at least I'm not starving myself to get skinny.” Beauty, confidence, and body appreciation are feelings. But what we struggle with is how to BOTH manage these body confidence feelings while taking care of our health. In today's episode, I talk about ways we can use body positivity actually to fuel our healthy habits.

How many diets have you tried? If not actual diets then maybe dietary changes? If you have tried more than one (which, who hasn't?), or if you are OVER all the well-meaning but overreaching comments from family members who have ALL the ideas on what you're not doing to take care of yourself, then this episode is for you. You probably have done green-, plant-based, carb-cutting, eliminating all the things. And so many times, it gets results in the beginning and then poof - what is happening? Or maybe it's really hard to sustain because of life, budget, family, environment, the diet is too restrictive, or some other consistent hurdle in the way. I know the hopelessness that can set in when you know your goals and the commitment to the diet is just crumbling.

Or is one of the reasons you dread meal prep because you know you never have the ingredients and will have to run to the grocery for this and that, on the way here or there, right after you do xyz?

Consistency, consistency… We all know that it is consistency that will get results in your health habits. But for some of us, consistency feels as far away as a remote island on another side of the world. It is ridiculous to think we can be consistent in anything, much less our health goals, and we know we need help, but we have no idea where to start.   Today, we're going to dig the tunnel underground, across the land and ocean of our lives, to that remote island of consistency.

Today we're talking about “interoception” - a sixth sense of generally knowing what is happening across our entire bodies. Interoception is the perception of the whole state of the body. Many times we lose sensitivity to or interpretation of this sense and its signals, and it causes a disconnection - that could contribute to anxiety, depression, even things like PTSD or eating disorders.  Mild disconnection to our interoception may lie a lot under the guise of productivity and efficiency - at home, on errands, in work, in education systems, in economic challenges, politics and social discourse about challenging issues, etc. We miss our body's signals - feeling stressed or at ease. Feeling hungry or full. Whether we're running on a full tank or on fumes. Whether we're breathing shallow or deep. Whether we feel unsafe or safe (and whether we feel “allowed" to feel unsafe). The world around us is constantly asking us to separate our thoughts from our bodies, to disregard our gut feelings, our basic needs, and our 6th sense that something is off. Interoception makes us more aware of our emotional and physical needs so that we can satisfy these needs in healthy ways. Today, I want to give you permission to ground yourself and grow your interoception - your very real sixth sense - so that you can begin to have a real understanding of where whole health begins.

Or maybe you know what wasn't working, but the threat of failure keeps you from trying at all?

Sleep-loss/sleep deprivation is too common - add on top Revenge Bedtime Procrastination (“getting back” at the overwhelmingly long days). Revenge Bedtime Procrastination was diagnosed as ultra-busy people were going to bed later and later, to “own” part of their day (think “my time”).
