Day 3- 30 DAY CHALLENGE

'the most certain way to succeed is always just to try just one more time' Thomas Edison

So I hope that you are still with us, committed and taking action. Today we are going to look at ways to handle stress, its often when we are faced with stress, we retreat back to our old ways. Lets get past this, the first thing would be to recognise it, recognise the self talk that says, 'its too hard-lets retreat'.
1. Stop and be conscious, take a deep breathe. Breathe in and decide in that moment to believe that you can do it.
2. Get rational or irrational, which ever works best for you. Work out what the actual problem is, then brainstorm 20 ways in which you can change it to get the outcome that you are after.
3. If you can't control the situation, learn to let it go. There is no use in holding onto situations that you can't change.

DAY 4-30 DAY CHALLENGE

'Whether you think that you can, whether you think that you can't, either way you are right'. Henry Ford

Thanks for joining us, today, we need to look at what we believe about ourselves and our capabilities, we only ever get what we believe, and we only ever do what we think we are capable of. So what if you stretched you mind to think that you can do something that you never thought was possible before. So if we are talking about weight loss for example, what if not only you were to lose that weight, but you were going to look amazing and enjoy it. See maybe you have always associated weight loss with struggle, and maybe you never really thought that you could do it, have fun and keep the weight off.
If you changed your mindset, to believe in yourself, maybe just maybe you could do things that you never could before. Each new experience will then give your confidence to believe in yourself,

DAY 2- 30 DAY CHALLENGE

' we are what we repeatedly do' Aristotle

Today is about getting outside our comfort zone, life is how we spend our days...that is our life.

So today, lets do something different. Instead of walking...run, instead of yelling...sing, instead of doing nothing...do something. Look at your goal, what are three things that you can do differently today to work towards your goal....you need to commit yourself at least 30 minutes out of your day towards your goals.

Ok I have something for you to try, raw garlic...its really not that bad. Garlic is a potent immune booster and contains both anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties. Chop it up as fine as you can, put it in a glass of water and shot it down. Great for your skin, great for the immune system, great for overwell being (Lets be real though, not so great for the breath, them the breaks)
Lets get as healthy as we can.

DAY 1-30 DAY CHALLENGE

'you have to dream so that you can get up in the morning' Billy Wilder

Ok So its Day 1 of the thirty day challenge. Today is about getting outside the box we know as our comfort zone. It deciding where we want to go, because that is the only way to get there. So take 30 minutes for yourself and start day dreaming about what you want, where you want to go, how much healthier you want to be, how much weight you want to lose, how much clearer you want your skin to be. Whatever it is write it down.





Sit with it, then chose three things from the list that are achieveable in 30 days. We need it to be measureable also.


ie Lose 4 kgs in 30 days.





So then take your goal and break it down into manageable steps, ie. lose 1 kg every 7 days...think of ways that you could do this..move your body everyday, replace all drinks with water, replace one meal a day with a salad, whatever it is that is going to work for you. Plot it out, something like this...

Week 1: Do something physical every day for 30 minutes

week 2: in addition to moving my body, replace all fluids with water

Week 3: Replace normal lunch with salad

Week 4: Cut sugar out of meals.

These are just very basic teps and ideas, you need to make them your own, to define where you are going. It is advised that you seed advice from a medical practioner prior to undertaking any new eating or exercise regime.

So now you know where you need to go, you have drawn up the map. Place it somewhere that you can see it everyday. This is the only way to get there, lets get to it. Join us tomorrow for the next step to our own success, to your good health
