Welcome to Day 10 of the 12 Days of Gratitude. This year's theme is the Year of You.

I have worked with clients with chronic health conditions and they all tell me that being sick is a full time job. They wake up every single day and their disease and their condition dictates the kind of day that they are going to have. And then we talk about making these changes to create a healthier lifestyle, and I want to be perfectly clear, I never talk about a cure, I only talk about creating better health.

That is why creating safety net routines are so important... and safety net routines that match your lifestyle and the goals that you want to achieve.

Welcome to Day 9 of the 12 Days of Gratitude! This year's theme is the Year of You.

Yesterday, we talked about protecting your body from harm. Today, we are going to create that shift into body acceptance.

This is another topic that we can talk about for days. The common lexicon of body acceptance is I can do whatever I want and eat whatever I want and have all of these unhealthy habits and I don’t care what you think about me, I am going to accept my body whatever it looks like.

The real power of gratitude happens when you can love and accept your body from a place of a lifestyle of appreciating how it keeps you healthy every day.

Welcome to Day 8 of the 12 Days of Gratitude! This year's theme is the Year of You.

We could talk about this for days. And this is definitely a student favorite in my 12week group coaching program. And here’s why.

We think that good health is the absence of disease. Let me say this differently. We think that if we do not have a disease, then we are healthy.

What they don’t teach us, anywhere, unless we look for it, is how a disease actually happens in the body.

WHAT IF... we were to flip this upside down and instead, create a lifestyle of healthy factors so that you can activate true health from within, and minimize the chance of getting a disease?

Welcome to Day 7 of the 12 Days of Gratitude. This year's theme is the Year of You.

How much different advice is out there... wake up early, make your bed, do your gratitudes before you go to sleep.

Tim Ferris says, “If you win the morning, you win the day.”

Hal Elrod says, “How you start your day is the most important decision to transform your life.”

And then don’t forget about the evening routines.

What if you aren’t a morning person and you’re trying to be a morning person or what if you’re what if you aren’t an evening person and you’re trying to be an evening person?

Welcome to Day 6 of the 12 Days of Gratitude! This year's theme is the Year of You.

You may or may not know this, but I accidentally started this podcast. Yes, it is possible to accidentally start a podcast. What had happened, I use theKajabi platform for everything in my business, and Kajabi introduced a podcast capability on its platform.

Well, I had been a blogger. I love to write, and obviously a lot has changed in the last year and a half, but at that moment in time, I absolutely hated to speak. And as an aside, I’m 100% convinced that not wanting to speak, and having Hashimoto’s are totally connected. New podcasts were popping up left and right. Everyone was starting a podcast. I would get asked if I was ever going to start a podcast and my answer was, over my cold, dead body.

Welcome to Day 5 of the 12 Days of Gratitude! This year's theme is the Year of You.

Now that you’ve created your inner sanctuary, what is going to happen when the resistance comes up when you are trying to reach your goals and become the best version of you? There’s all of these gurus out there with a lot of different goal setting techniques. SMART, write them down, put them on your vision board, visualize them, get an accountability buddy. We’ve read the books, we’ve listened to the podcast episodes... so why is it when we do all of the things, we still can’t achieve our goals?

Welcome to Day 4 of the 12 Days of Gratitude! This year's theme is the Year of You.

When I onboard a new client, we always have a conversation about what they want to accomplish in our time together. It’s important to be mindful of those goals. But what happens, 100% of the time, is that we always take a detour to get there. And you want to know why this happens?

It’s because at the end of the day, those goals are extremely important, but if we keep swimming up the river, past those goals, we get to something better. We get to the core. I can’t tell my clients that this is what they REALLY want. In order for this to work, they have to find it out and figure it out themselves.

Welcome to Day 3 of the 12 days of Gratitude! This year's theme is the Year of You.

Yesterday, I talked about recognizing old patterns and beliefs. These patterns only become a problem if you view them from a place of shame or blame. Which they are not. These are normal human patterns that we all experience.

In order to move past the blame and shame, and to begin creating the Year of You, your next step is to accept your past, and accept your past from a place of how it made you who you are. The best way to do this is from aplace of curiosity and wonder.

Welcome to Day 2 of the 12 days of Gratitude! This year's topic is the Year of You.

We fall into the same patterns and beliefs over and over again. It’s human nature. Our actions are based on our identity, thoughts, beliefs, and patterns. The science is mixed, but let’s go with the common narrative that we have between 50-80 thousand thoughts a day, and 80-90 percent of them are negative, and 80-90 percent of them are the same thoughts from the day before. No wonder we keep getting stuck in the same rut and the same patterns over and over again.

These patterns and beliefs run the show. That is why... when we try to make the changes that we want to make that we get excited for a short time, but then we go right back into doing things the same... we get excited, we learn all of the things that we need to learn. But there’s a huge disconnect between knowing them and implementing them, and actually embodying them.
