Finding Wellness
The wellness space is cluttered with gurus who swear they have the best solution but the truth is only YOU know what works best for you and your body, mind and spirit. We've been conditioned to think of health as thinness or the absence of illness. But we need to start thinking more holistically beyond just what our body looks and feels like. My goal is to help you look at your whole life: your career, your spirituality, your mental health, your environement, etc. to see how you can support your overall health and wellbeing. Get curious, listen to your body, and start making small shifts today that will have a big impact tomorrow! You are worth the time, money, energy and effort required to live a full, complete, happy and healthy life!
Finding Wellness
80. Is it self care or is it self sabotage? How do you know the difference?

I've spent the last year in healing mode, extending myself a lot of grace, and allowing my self to rest, recover and in some cases, take the easy route. That was actually perfect for the season that I was in but now I'm in a season where most of my healing is done and I'm ready to step things up so that I can perform more optimally more often.
What this means for me is that I need to start to learn the difference between self care and self sabotage. I believe the difference and the determining factor is my future self. What will my future self thank me for later? Will my future self thank me for the extra "rest" or will it thank me for doing the workout I didn't want to do?
Today I share three areas of my life where I notice I often self sabotage and call it self care. I don't have all the answers yet but I want to share this experience with you and take you along for the ride!
