What's Your Body Telling You?

One of the most interesting things about my work is how often people already know exactly what’s going on with them. They already know the foods that bother them, the lifestyle changes that would make the biggest difference for them, and the general idea of why they feel they way they feel.

The challenge is in trying to figure out why they aren’t already doing “all the things”.

One of my life lessons and I’m guessing one of your is to stay present enough to actually listen to what my body is telling me.

I know it sounds a little silly and it’s so true.

When I listen to the nudges to eat/not eat certain foods, exercise, spend time outside, etc., I feel the best. When I ignore those nudges, I feel way less optimal.

Here’s what I’m talking about.

You know when you reach for that 3rd cookie and that little voice inside your head tells you not to eat it? And, you eat it anyway. And, you feel like crap? That’s what I mean by listening to your body.

Your body is in a constant state of trying to help you and it truly wants you to be well.

It’s giving you cues all the time:

Don’t eat that.
