Six Months Challenge

 Yesterday I had a conversation with one of my clients that followed a thought I was playing in my head for a while. Without noticing I found myself declaring on my 6 months challenge.

Yes, I had hesitations after I spoke it up, but, I spoke so as far as I care, no turning back.

As some of you know, I already gave up on few things in life, such as alcohol, sugar, processed food, news, and so on.

Now, I decided giving up for six months on social media and complaining, I wonted to minimize the use of my phone (texting, calling) as well to a specific time, ex; one hour a day, but with my line of work that probably would have got some of my clients not so happy, no worries, I am still working of figuring this one out as well.

What stand behind this challenge for me, is gaining the opportunity to reflect more within myself. To be able to learn and practice more the essence of life. I hold no expectation of this challenge, but I am excited to explore where I am going to take myself during this time.

Sometimes it is good to think about what you are feeling and sometimes it is just good to feel about what you are thinking, either way, it is a privilege to experience your being.

I should make a note that my site is set automatically to share every post from my blog to my Facebook page and twitter account, however, I will not be checking either one of them till March 11 2019. If reading this post got you thinking of joining me for this journey, please keep me posted via email, I would love reading about your experience.

As for the complaining part of this challenge, since I was debating how to distinguish between a complaining to stating a fact, my husband helped me understand something. He said: If you felt the need to state something, most likely you complained about it, otherwise you would have said nothing, So if you hear me saying something that is a version of complain, you are free to enlighten me and point it out.

As the saying goes:

If You have nothing good to say, say nothing”

No Pain No Gain

  We all heard the term: “No Pain No Gain”, I use it quite often with myself, sometimes even with my trainees. However, I am not sure people actually understand the meaning of it. We tend to confuse between pain of stupidity to pain of wisdom, between the physical pain of hard work to the pain of a fracture or a nerve. The pain of a fracture might be to signal us that we are on the wrong path. A pain of a nerve could try to say that maybe we are pushing too much, a pain of stupidity could be when you think you should jump higher than you ever practice for or before, or when you just go for a marathon run when you never run for 10 km in a row. All those versions of pain could not be and should not be part of that statement. Believe me when I say, that it is more painful to push through mentally when a thing seems statics then physically when you can feel the wrong pain. It is easier to say to yourself “if I don’t feel the physical pain I probably don’t push hard enough”, then to kee...

A Path to True Wellness and Balance

 In the pursuit of a healthy life, we strive for balance, aim to maintain our health, and seek happiness within ourselves and our daily lives. While achieving this may seem straightforward, many of us face regular challenges in doing so. We often hide behind our screens, offering advice and sharing personal stories in an attempt to guide others. Yet, when we delve deeper, we find that issues such as obesity, depression, lack of joy, stress, and anxiety persist. So, what’s the key? I believe that self-reflection—practiced often, even daily—can lead us toward our desired goals. The first step is to define your destination: what does wellness truly mean to you? According to the Google Dictionary: Well: in a good or satisfactory way. Ness: denoting a state or condition. However, defining wellness alone isn’t enough to help you reach your aspirations. It requires your personal experiences, objectives, and passions to truly shape it. Begin by asking yourself: What does "well" me...
