My life has changed over the years! I am no longer spending over an hour in the gym 6 days a week. I am no longer running 10 miles on a weekend. I never prioritized stretching or yoga - so now what do I do?! I am in my mid-40's and I have to figure out how to achieve overall wellness, so that I can stay healthy long-term. I will never have visible abs again, but I can find balance with a little help from my friends!In this conversation, health coach Mandy Torres shares insights on achieving balance and wellness, particularly for women in their middle ages! The discussion covers Mandy's journey into health coaching, the importance of self-confidence, and practical tips for incorporating wellness into busy lives. Key areas of focus include managing stress, the significance of sleep, nutrition essentials, and the benefits of strength training. Mandy emphasizes the power of small time investments and habit stacking to create sustainable healthy habits.00:00 Introduction to Health and Balance03:07 Mandy's Journey: From Dance to Health Coaching06:56 Building Self-Confidence Through Trying08:39 The Power of Small Time Investments10:45 Creating Healthy Habits: Water and Sleep14:02 Managing Stress and Finding Balance20:51 The Power of Breathwork21:59 Incorporating Exercise into Daily Life25:45 Nutrition Essentials for the 40s29:06 Creating Healthy Habits31:57 You've Got 5 min - how do you use it?!36:54 Thank you!Welcome to Owning Life!Click the Subscribe button to join in community.MandyInBalance - find her here - https://withpurposeretreats.com/IG - mandyinbalanceTT - mandyinbalance–Order My Workbook: Fire Under the Night Sky: https://tinyurl.com/3vpk39j2_Visit my websitewww.mourningspace.com–Follow me on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jokotifaalaye/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jokotifaalaye/Bluesky: @jokotifaalaye.bsky.socialAll information provided in this podcast by the Mourning Space, LLC (collectively, the “Mourning Space”), is solely educational and is not to be construed as advice or information related to medical advice, assisted death or dying services, therapy, medical services, clinical medical services,clinical medical advice, mental health medical advice, financial advice, legal advice or similar advice.
