Diets, health fads, trendy workouts, and influencer tricks…

This is a big portion of what we experience in the health and fitness world. There is always a new “lose weight fast” scheme lurking on your social media ads, or foods that are marketed to help you “get fit” hitting the grocery store shelves. All the while, we are feeling unhealthy, sluggish, tired, stressed, anxious, and ignoring the importance of caring for our health, both mentally and physically.

It’s time to change how we are approaching our health and wellness.

Let’s talk about how you can start a TRUE health transformation for your mind and your body that will leave you with less questions for google, and more time to care for yourself.

6 Steps to Starting a TRUE Health Transformation:

1. Getting Started

   1. The desire to change

   2. Take away the pressure of “Day 1”

   3. One change at a time

   4. Self Assessment

2. Physical

   1. Creating movement- learn how to move your body without commitment to a workout program that create overwhelm instead of movement

   2. Transforming energy- how to become more energetic every day by exercising your body and mind

3. Nutrition

   1. Redefining relationship- Having an “add to my meal” thought process instead of restriction goals

   2. Building knowledge- Avoiding tricks that companies use to convince you their product is “healthy”

   3. Meal planning and list making

4. Mindset

   1. Shifting thoughts– positive self talk/inner dialogue

   2. Deep breathing, meditations

   3. Expanding belief- goal setting

5. Motivation/Discipline/Sustainability

   1. Motivation doesn’t sustain – learning discipline while practicing self-love

6. Community and Support

   1. Being supported by others to reach your goals and feel your happiest/healthiest

One of the hardest things for us to do is give ourselves grace. When days are hard, schedules get thrown off, and goals get pushed back, we may choose to have negative self-talk or give up and quit all together. Or we can choose to use these tools above to shift our mindset and make a change mentally and physically.

The Health Umbrella

This encompasses more than “eating healthy” and “working out”. There is so much to gain when taking time to assess where you are in your health transformation and what you truly want in a healthy lifestyle. These three aspects of your lifestyle… physical, nutrition, and mindset… are where the true transformation lies.

A true transformative experience is exactly what we strive to help others reach in the Three Branches Wellness Community. With focus on the three branches of our lifestyle, together we take control of our health and give the love our body and mind deserve to feel.
