Pain along the base of the foot that prevents you from walking and doing the activities you love to pursue, just sucks! I suffered with plantar fasciitis on two separate occasions, both of which were caused by poor fitting footwear. Once I changed out my footwear, the problem went away. Often, though a lot of people aren't this lucky and they suffer for weeks, months and years.

"If you don't allow others to reject you, you'll end up rejecting yourself." Dr. John Demartini

Striving to find balance in any relationship dynamic is both a science and an art. Only through communication and understanding people's values can we find the middle way, that helps us solve our problem and equally helps serve them too.

Sometimes, however, if you strive to always agree, and not adhere to your own values hierarchy, you can end up rejecting your self. Instead you can be projecting the values of others onto your self and feel hesitant, frustrated and experience procrastination - which are simply signs of not abiding by your own value ladder.

Break free by recognizing your values, honoring them and learning the art of articulating your values in a way that helps others decide if they wish to align with your values or perhaps move on (thereby rejecting you).

Always recall that you also have to spend the most amount of time with your self. So wouldn't you rather spend more time with that someone who accepts you authentically for who you are, as opposed you rejecting yourself, and leading a life of misery and disappointment in your self.

Do you struggle with chronic back pain? Are you finding that no matter how much deadlifting you are doing, your back still feels weak and unstable? If you answered yes to either, or both, of these questions - you are not alone.

Today I want to explore some key reasons why your back may be hurting and how to strengthen your deep spinal stabilizers which will ultimately make the difference in back strength, stability, coordination and postural control.

"Everything is on the way, not in the way." Dr. John Demartini

Our greatest friend and our greatest enemy are those from within. Using an affirmation such as this one I'm sharing today, can help transform our self-critical and negative habit of mind, that tries to convince us that there is no point in trying or continuing to try.

Use this daily affirmation as often as possible to help re-program your mindset and help open the possibilities of growth, development and achieving greater levels of health, happiness and vitality.

The Three Questions by Jon J Muth

This is my favorite book that I used to read to my kids and I'll remind them now and then about the essence of the story!

We all have these questions:
1. When is the best time to do things?
2. Who is the most important one?
3. What is the right thing to do?

From the original work of Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910), this beautiful book shares great insight in answering these questions in a playful manner with animal characters and simple storyline. 

Child or adult, this is a profound book that teaches an important lesson for our busy lives.

One question I hear often, is 'how many times should I be doing this exercise?' 

My quick answer is 'as often as possible'. Consider how many times a day you are holding certain postures that misalign your body, and unless you are taking the equivalent time each day to do the exact opposite, then you are accumulating postural debt. I encourage everyone to pay down this debt as often and as quickly as possible. 

My next answer is 'that depends on your goals.' Essentially, here is the formula:

ALL PERFORMED WITH GOOD FORM!
Strength - low reps, high load, low speed, 2-3 x per week, with rest days between
Power - low/moderate reps, moderate/high load, high speed, 2-3 x per week
Endurance - high reps, low/moderate load, low/moderate speed, 3+ x per week
Stability - high reps, low-to-high load, low speed, unstable surface, single arm/single leg - daily
Coordination - low-to-high reps, high-to-low speed, cross-crawl type of patterns (e.g. swimming) - daily

Consider that the average human breathes 16 times per minute. If we multiply this over a 16-hour period (the average time that we are awake each day), we would have taken 15,360 breathes in that time frame. Now imagine each day you perform 15,360 bicep curls and no tricep work to counteract this indifference. You would be accumulating a SIGNIFICANT postural debt, which would cause the bicep muscles to shorten and tighten (become hypertonic) and the tricep muscles to lengthen and weaken (become hypotonic), prematurely wearing down the shoulder and elbow joints and causing other biomechanical imbalances over time. It's the same type of equation to consider for our breathing muscles (and every other group in our body for that matter). 

Bottom line - learn how to breath correctly, recruiting the right muscles and take the pressure off the accessory muscles of respiration in the neck that are currently working overtime!

WE CAN FIND TOTAL DISASTER IN THE SMALLEST UPSET, AND WE CAN FIND SOME JOY IN THE GREATEST TRAGEDY. IT IS UP TO US.' Louise Hay

When tragedy strikes, it's important to observe our minds reaction. Through learning to train our mind we can respond (instead of react) to difficulties with a different perspective. This experience or person can be our object of anger OR our object of patience and love. The choice is ours. 

Notice your minds reactions even with the smallest irritations. This can be a sign that should things magnify by way of intensity, frequency or volume of problems, our energy will get pulled and our mind filled with anxiety, anger and frustration.

What are you going to do about it?!
