Welcome to Wellness Wednesdays! Join us on this enriching podcast episode as we embrace mindful practices, explore the depths of self-reflection, analyze data-driven health insights, optimize our digital well-being, and empower ourselves through self-belief.


Here is what I'll be covering in this episode:

1. Mindful Moment - I guide us through five rounds of deep breathing, allowing each breath to ground us in the present moment. Together, we will embark on a thought awareness exercise enhanced by visualization techniques, expanding our self-awareness and fostering a sense of calm and clarity.

2. Mindful Reflection - We explore the prompt sourced from the esteemed Balance Period Newsletter: "What is my first thought when I wake up in the morning?" I share the impact that my life experiences have had on shaping my initial thoughts of the day. Discover insights into our subconscious patterns, emotions, and beliefs, offering a deeper understanding of our mindset and the potential for positive transformation.

3. Check-In - I share the insightful data from my WHOOP Monthly Performance Assessment of May. Explore how the final month of my 50K training program impacted key metrics such as strain, sleep, and recovery. I uncover the strategies I employed, including the power of napping, to enhance my sleep performance and overall well-being. Discover the significance of measuring sleep quality, resting heart rate, heart rate variability, training behavior, and stress as we unlock the secrets to optimizing our physical and mental health.

4. System Updates - I reveal a valuable adjustment I've made to my social media consumption in the morning. I highlight the impact this change has had on my mental health and overall well-being. I encourage you to audit your social media consumption and determine how it may be affecting your mental health.

5. Resource Review - I summarize the featured article from the esteemed Balance Period Newsletter titled "Self-Efficacy and Why Believing in Yourself Matters." Together, we explore the link between self-belief and actualizing our potential. I share the benefits of self-efficacy and offer valuable insights into cultivating and nurturing this empowering mindset in our daily lives. Discover practical techniques and strategies to boost self-confidence and unleash your true potential.


Intention: My desire is to create a space where we learn, grow, and create generational wellness together. If you have any questions you would like answered on the show, email me at [email protected]
