The Reshape Podcast

Today I chat about the word should, how it undermines your autonomy and motivation & alternatives.

I also dig into client questions. 

Why do we hit the F it button?

Christmas anxiety!

Are your training hard enough? Training progress and muscle soreness. 

Enjoy, please share if this helped you and let me know how you found it; your feedback is so welcomed and valuable. 

Today I start by talking about the difference between goals VS values.

Start to understand when you're living outside of your values and include things that make you feel more fulfilled.

Client questions - most of them relate to point 1, unsurprisingly as it might seem;) 

How to motivate yourself for training
How to manage hangovers 
How to stop beating yourself up for feeling guilty when you, for example, miss the gym 
Improving your body image 
and the difference between physical and psychological hunger along with some tools to manage

I finished talking about how to add more oomph and happiness into your day to support snacking habits! Snacking can be a habit; I also see it coming from a lack of fulfilment in daily life. Getting home feeling drained, fed up and generally like there was nothing joyful in the day, are you snacking to find some fun or a reward at the end of a day of giving, giving, giving?

Enjoy; if you have questions drop me a message and share, share, share!

   

   
 

A Lot of people struggle when it comes to saying no, whether it's being invited to something you don't want to go to,  being offered something you don't want to eat or drink, or something similar.

I talk about "if it is not a HELL YES, it's a NO!" and how to start saying no.

I cover boundaries a little when it comes to food, drinks and feeling pressured!

At this time of year, these things can become even harder to navigate with invites being thrown left, right and centre.

The book mentioned is Not nice by DR Aziz Gazipura

  
  

What a random combo of questions, it is a goodie though. 

As we change it can be hard to navigate relationships, unhelpful comments & frustration when people don't understand what you are doing.

I firstly cover how to approach those hard conversations. 
  
We dig deeper into calories & why carbs don't make you gain weight.

Why do we add bands to movements, I mean this ramble could 100% use more work, I apologise in advance, lol.

Enjoy, and as always send your questions and feedback.
