When we meet with our clients, regardless of their health history or nutritional goals, our foundational encouragement is always this: don’t change too much at once. And we say that because we think changing too much at once is a recipe for failure. It doesn’t put enough emphasis on the things we want to keep going in your life, and it’s also just plain too hard and unrealistic. To expect multiple changes at once to stick and become new habits is just not practical. So here is the one thing you can start now… PICK JUST ONE THING, AND GO ALL IN. Big or small, it doesn’t matter, just do it. Do you have a goal to drink more water? Find a way to track it daily and experiment until you find something that works for you. Don’t let up on it - this should be easier to do because its just this one change you’re working on. Do you want to feel better and more like yourself? Focus on one thing that impacts how you feel - your sleep, your breakfasts, your down time, your soda habit, or other. Maybe you need to do our Spring Body Renewal (see below). Choose one, and run with it. Allow yourself weeks and even months to devote a good amount of attention to it. Whatever it is you choose, remember to give yourself grace. It’s been said that adults make upwards of 35,000 decisions per day, everything from big ones to tiny ones. Decision fatigue can start to set in if we aren’t careful. By choosing just ONE THING to focus on at a time, you are being intentional with what decisions you are adding to your daily life, which will make it easier to turn it into a new habit. And every habit we establish enhances our focus and energy because it means we have less decisions to make. Win, win. You don’t ever have to do this alone though. If you are in a season of life right now where you need someone to help you choose your one thing, help hold you accountable, and guide you through its trials, failures and successes, we are here for you. Reach out to us to set up a consultation so we can understand how we can best serve you!
