One Life Radio

Hello One Life Radio listeners! Dr. Lori Whatley joins us today to talk about the effects of social media on self-esteem. Listen to the podcast for ways to protect your children, and yourself, from the insecurity brought on from too much social media. Learn about social self-harming, vanity validation and why social media is turning people into narcissists.

Next, Von Eaglin defines defensiveness, and gives us real examples how it can help and harm our relationships. He says making excuses is the number one way to be defensive. Another way to be defensive is to argue about things you know you are wrong and try and blame the other person. A perfect example is when you say you’re late to a meeting because (insert excuse here). Von tells us we all have defense mechanisms and defensiveness to protect our ego. We need to learn how to self-soothe and learn to listen to criticism without getting too anxious. Listen to the show to learn ways to be less defensive. And, we all need to try and be less defensive online. The effects of social media on self-esteem are real, and we need to be conscious of what we say to ourselves and each other.

Thanks to Dr. Whatley and Von for coming on the show today! And, thank you to our sponsors enviromedica, Castor & Pollux, the ISSN, Vegworld Magazine, Paleo Magazine and the Well Being Journal.

It’s Workout Wednesday on One Life Radio! Chris Gronkowski joins us for this St. Patrick’s Day talking about our favorite green drinks to make in our Ice Shakers! And, he teaches us how to gain muscle at home. Lisa Hubbard, owner of Rhythm Pilates walks us through the history and basics of Pilates.

Gain Muscle at Home

Chris says we don’t have to go to the gym to build muscle. We can do it from home without expensive equipment. Everyone has weight substitutes at home. Chris’ favorite weights are his kids on his back! You can also use a gallon of milk or water.

Junior uses his stairs like a stairmaster. Or, workout bands are a super cheap option for resistance. Push-ups are also great exercise at home. Chris says as long as you have a door and resistance bands, you can get a great workout as well. But, be careful that the band doesn’t slip off the door and hit you in the face. Listen to the podcast for more ways to workout at home.

Pilates 101

Lisa Hubbard is one of the top Pilates experts in the country. Pilates was born in Germany by Joseph Pilates. He believed the mind controls the body and he developed Pilates equipment during World War I for his men and also for injured men who were bedridden. After the war, he opened a studio in New York City and Pilates took off from there. Hubbard called it an “internal shower for your body”.

She says anyone can benefit from Pilates. You’re using smaller muscles and smaller movements but it supports the entire structure of your body.

Thinking Traps To Avoid When Losing Weight

Give yourself positive self talk. Don't set yourself up for failure if you eat something crappy one day! If your scale isn't budging, stop. You need to be focusing on your muscle to weight ratio. Women measure inches, but the scale may be going down. Stick with it! depending on what you've taken in; water, protein, etc. When your cortisol goes up, your weight does too! Don't weight yourself everyday. Your goal should not be about perfection, it should be about progress.

Plant-Based vs Mediterranean Diet

Fats in our food are made up of fatty acid chains, which consist of carbon and hydrogen atoms linked together. There are two major types of fatty acids that we eat: Saturated and unsaturated. Since dietary fats are a complex topic, we’ll save saturated fats and trans fat (which is technically an unsaturated fat) for another day. For now, let’s focus on unsaturated fats.
