Stop playing “GOOD” food, “BAD” food

“I was so GOOD yesterday, I didn’t eat…”

“It was a BAD day, I ate…”

“I bought only GOOD foods this week.”

“There was only crap (BAD) food at the party.”

We have a GOOD and BAD relationship with food.

We label foods as GOOD or BAD.

But we also tend to label ourselves as GOOD or BAD for eating, or not eating, those foods.

What if foods weren’t GOOD or BAD?

Who are your 5 people?

Ever heard this Jim Rohn quote: “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with”?

When I first heard this, it really opened my eyes.

I saw the truth in it.

Years ago I noticed that my energy was low, and I was stuggling to accomplish what I really wanted.

And a big part of that was that I was surrounded by people with who weren’t supportive or who didn’t understand what I wanted.

What’s going on with your THYROID?

Finally, I’m addressing this topic today!

I realize I haven’t yet written a post specifically about the THYROID GLAND.

Yet it plays a huge role in our health and well-being.

Especially for us ladies in mid-life and later.

And lately, I’ve noticed something really concerning.

At least half of my clients have a THYROID condition.

And for most of them it’s a form of hypothyroidism, called Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

Hypothyroidism is basically a slowing down of the functioning of the throid.

So, I’ve been looking more deeply into hypothyroidism, and Hashimoto’s in particular.

First, because I want to help my clients who are living with this dis-ease.

And second, I also want to get the word out, and raise awareness.

Because Hashimoto’s is so incredibly common.

And part of me wonders if it constitutes and epidemic.

But let’s start at the beginning…

Who do you think you are?

We just completed the 21-Day Self-Love Challenge last week.

And I loved the experience.

In fact, I loved it so much I’m going to offer it again in August.

So, stay tuned!

Now, having done the 21-Day Self-Love Challenge this first time, I noticed something interesting.

I noticed that we have a hard time owning what we LOVE about ourselves.

Inside and out.

It seems so much easier to talk about what we really DON’T LOVE about ourselves.

And we like to commiserate.

Misery loves company, right?

But what if you dared to share what you LOVE about YOU?

Are you afraid that your light would blind others?

Or would your light be exactly what others need to see, so they can shine their own light?

I believe it’s the latter.

If you shine your light, you’ll encourage others to shine theirs.

Your light could actually free others from their darkness.

Amazing.

Using the “Rules for Being Human” to live by

Have you ever come across this list of “Rules for Being Human?”

It’s unclear who wrote it, or how long ago.

But I think they’re genius.

To me, they really break down the human experience.

And attempt to explain how life as a human really works.

I think we all intuitively know these things, but when we read them consciously, they can change the way we look at ourselves, and life itself.

Here they are:
