Welcome to a new episode of the Embrace Your Real podcast. In this episode, we dive into the concept of being a morning person and how it can positively impact your life, particularly when it comes to incorporating morning workouts into your routine.   While being a morning person comes naturally to some, many of us struggle to embrace the early hours of the day.    Let's face it: If we don't make a morning workout a priority, it frequently gets put off. But how can we achieve the body we want without a regular exercise schedule?   That's where the importance of becoming a morning person comes into play. In this episode, I'll be sharing practical tips and strategies to help you transition into a morning person. It may not be easy at first, but with the right tools and unwavering commitment, you can make it happen!     What I discussed: 

1. A great morning routine starts with a great nighttime routine.
2. Get some sunshine!
3. Get some pre-movement in.
4. Don’t overcommit yourself.
5. Be consistent with your wakeup time. 
6. Never press snooze.
7. Have an easy to follow workout routine.

Society has ingrained in us the idea that perfection lies in conforming to a specific appearance and standard. And because of this, countless women have found themselves struggling with their identity and body image.

For some, not a day goes by without scrutinizing themselves in the mirror and hating themselves for not looking a certain way, or fitting on a certain pant-size, or feeling fat in all their clothes. They constantly feel uncomfortable and dissatisfied with their appearance. Others become fixated on their weight loss journey, allowing it to dominate their thoughts, and developing a profound self-disdain for failing to shed those extra pounds.

This episode of Embrace Your Real podcast is for those women.

Through this episode, my hope is to guide you in reframing your mindset so that you can embrace your life to the fullest without allowing your negative body image to consume you.
