Health Shortcuts - The Easy Way

If your doctor tells you to do more exercise or lose weight, there’s a good chance you aren’t going to follow through with making those changes. But it can be done. The simple way. Start small and see where you end up using that strategy for long-term and sustainable results. Here are some of the ways how you can make your fitness plan successful even if your body type can change: It doesn’t matter if you’re a man with muscles or a woman with curves. Or a young person looking to get into shape, just try different exercises from different fitness levels – any of these will do the trick so long as you keep on trying until you get what you want out of each day. What matters is why you want to do it and what kind of results you want to achieve. As one of our clients told us: “If I lose belly fat, it’s because those extra inches in my hips make me feel like an angel!” That’s exactly right. And we have found that many people who’ve lost a lot of weight are not at all happy with their bodies and what they look like in the mirror. So let’s give ourselves some grace and accept that our life is part of a process and progress will come. We call this technique “health shortcuts”. Let’s focus on your overall health instead of your appearance.

See people happy, even if it’s just by listening to them and knowing them. And most importantly, don’t care about appearances anymore. You don’t bring them happiness and satisfaction. On the other hand, your life is not only about what you need, but about how you feel about your mind and body and that you can face life and all its difficulties. Remember: no one likes to talk about his/her problem – they just want to get it sorted. Don’t waste your time talking about things you’ll forget about tomorrow. Instead, focus all your energy on the things you like doing. Don’t be afraid to invite difficult questions. Then discover solutions. No one likes to be wrong - so stay open-minded and never limit yourself or your choices. By focusing all your attention and effort on something you enjoy doing, you’re creating real lasting change which you can appreciate and enjoy. Once the thing becomes a habit and starts giving you strength, eventually you won’t miss the good old times. Yes, sometimes you want to go back to your old life, but you need to stay grateful and mentally relaxed and it’s okay. There’s plenty to do in your life, but the best way to keep you focused on your priorities is to stick with the positive path. This will lead you to a happier existence. Don’t allow yourself to get carried away by shiny objects and then wonder about how they got so valuable. Life is simply too quick to overthink things. Be happy and positive and live now. Not today!
