How Bad Do You Want It?

How bad do you really want to have more energy? Reduce your brain fog? Improve your mood? Decrease your anxiety? Feel better in your bones and in your clothes? How bad do you want things to change?

Nothing changes if nothing changes.

Wake up and go to bed at (roughly) the same time each day. Hydrate. Go for a walk. Get outside, touch nature. Eat whole foods. Nourish yourself mindfully. Challenge your body with heavier weights and cardio that leaves you breathless. Hydrate more. Rest and recover.

After years and years of trial and error, I’ve collected and learned what specific details work for me. And I’ve had to review and revise many times, for example as I’ve navigated a significant neck and brain injury and also perimenopause. But the framework has stayed the same.

It’s time to find out what works for you.

You will get uncomfortable. You cannot and will not change unless you are sitting in discomfort. Notice I said discomfort. Not pain. Not suffering. Not misery.

What is your discomfort? Is it starting an exercise program? Spending 2 hours on a weekend to meal prep? Lifting heavy weights? Starting a gratitude practice? Putting limits on your phone use? Setting boundaries with that toxic relationship? Fitting in recovery days? Going to bed earlier than you ever have before?

What is your discomfort? Do not run away from it. Sit with it. Move through it

Nothing changes if nothing changes. If you want it, you’ll make a change.

How. Bad. Do. You. Want. It.

Make a change. A small one. That’s all it takes.
