Today is National Onion Day! Through all the years and sometimes tears National Onion Day on June 27th recognizes the flavor and aroma the bulb of the allium family brings to numerous recipes. Whether we choose a sweet, white, red, or the ever-favorite yellow, we count on the onion to enhance the flavor of our savory recipes. They pair well with meats and salads, making the ever-versatile onion a cooking powerhouse. Added to eggs or pickled, it’s the required seasoning ne...xt to our salt and pepper. While the onion packs in the flavor with very few calories, it’s also rich in vitamin C and antioxidants. Add onions to every meal to increase your dietary fiber and vitamin B6. As a bonus, you won’t be adding any cholesterol. With so many varieties to choose from, onions provide plenty of opportunities for us to relish the benefits. So, today be sure to add fresh onion for a punch of flavor to your favorite dish. No matter how you slice it, the onion brings some of the best flavors together! #NationalOnionDay #renov8fitness #renov8yourmind #renov8yourbody #findyourathletewithin #heathercpt #heathermbinns #HeatherBinns

Today is Celebration of the Senses Day! Remind yourself of your body’s amazing sensory abilities. Given that, at any moment in time, we are bombarded by such a diverse combination of sensory experiences, our appreciation of the individual senses can become somewhat muddled. Our taste experience is affected by the smell, texture and temperature of our food. Similarly, our hearing is said to decrease after overeating, and our sight is affected by noises around us. Sight can als...o be hampered after eating fatty foods. On Celebration of the Senses Day, conduct a couple of in-house experiments to give your senses a shake up! Have a blindfolded smell-a-thon of items in the fridge. Listen to a piece of music in a pitch dark room. While you’re at it, dance around in the dark! Mix up your food experience by mashing, freezing or coloring different foods to create new and surprising sensory variations. Look at things around you through a looking glass. In short, utilize your senses to experience the world anew. Here’s another interesting snippet If a sad, depressed person tells you their world is dull and grey, and flowers have lost their smell, they’re not just speaking metaphorically. Research shows that sensory perception can actually be diminished in depressed individuals. So, focusing on a renewed appreciation of your senses can actually help you to get out of an emotional rut. Five Senses? Try Ten! The categorization of our five primary senses (sight, smell, hearing, taste and touch) is attributed to Aristotle. While this categorization is still valid, humans have a number of additional ‘sensory abilities’ not covered by the above. These secondary senses include: Sense of balance and acceleration the ability to sense body movement, direction and acceleration, and to maintain balance and equilibrium. Temperature sense the ability to sense heat and the absence of heat (cold). Kinesthetic sense the ability of the brain to be aware of the relative positions of various parts of the body without sensing these via the ‘normal’ senses (like being able to touch your nose with your finger, with your eyes closed). Sense of Pain the sense of pain was previously believed to be an overloading of pressure receptors, but it has since been identified as a distinct phenomenon that intertwines with the other senses, including touch. Sense of Time the ability to perceive the passage of time, both short passages as well as longer time cycles. Cool, isn’t it? Even more senses to experiment with on #CelebrationOfTheSensesDay Have fun! #renov8fitness #renov8yourmind #renov8yourbody #findyourathletewithin #heathercpt #heathermbinns #HeatherBinns

Is your 2021 starting out happy?

LIPOTROPIC PLUS The Lipotropic Plus formula is scientifically-engineered to assist in the breakdown, distribution, and burning (oxidation) of fatty acids. The active ingredients actually accelerate the fat-burning process by breaking down fat cells into smaller particles (emulsification) to be used for fuel during exercise. This breakdown, or emulsification of fat cells into smaller particles, is similar to how soap breaks down grease on dishes. The Lipotropic Plus formula co...ntains a concentrated source of lipotropic factors that work synergistically to help maximize this process. Additionally, the Lipotropic Plus formula helps to increase levels of energy and stamina during exercise while providing resistance to fatigue. Here’s a good analogy of how an emulsifier (fat-burner) works. Open a can of vegetable soup. Floating on the top are big fat globules and little fat globules. Imagine these globules represent your body-fat traveling through your bloodstream to your muscle tissue where they will eventually be burned as fuel. The smaller fat globules will get there first because they travel more freely and efficiently. Lipotropic Plus helps in the breakdown (emulsification) of body-fat. Lipotropic Plus is often used in combination with the Super L-Carnitine formula to aid in fat loss. Renov8 Fitness Lipotropic Plus (100 capsules) is available for pick-up or delivery at only $25.99: https://www.renov8.fitness/products/lipotropic-plus

COVID or not, we still now how to party for the holidays!!

What is Anxiety? from Coach Heather Binns I wanted to talk about a sadly prevalent topic in the world today anxiety and help you understand the cause. I’m not a doctor, therapist or even a psychologist (although my husband is a psychologist), but I do think I’ve got some valuable insight to share.... Anxiety is a normal, and often healthy emotion, that is commonly rooted in fear of what’s to come in the future. It’s an emotion that is characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts, and physical changes like increased blood pressure (per the American Psychological Association). It’s no wonder that anxiety is through the roof during a global pandemic, as we have less certainty than we are used to having. If you really dig deep, you can begin to work through your anxiety by managing your thoughts. When you feel anxious, notice the thought running through your head. It’s your thoughts that give you certain feelings, for better or worse. And you can bring consciousness to your thoughts that lead to negative emotions and actually begin to change your thoughts, which totally changes how you feel. It’s pretty amazing! So, if you’re feeling anxious and the thought around it is how you’re going to figure out homeschooling your kids and managing work during a pandemic, you can change that thought to something that serves you such as I’ve gotten this far in life, and I’ll get through this great growth opportunity as well. Same situation, but you’re attributing different thoughts. Comment below or send me a DM and let me know how this sits with you. I’m so looking forward to hearing! #wellness #anxiety #mindset #awareness #renov8fitness #HeatherMBinns #emotions #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness

I’m So Sick of This from Coach Heather As if we don’t have enough stress in our lives from 2020, there’s one thing I’m seeing all the time online right now that’s really ruffling my feathers. It’s this idea of food dogma.... Everyone seemingly has STRONG and unshakeable, yet highly judgmental positions Don’t eat fruit. It’ll make you fat. Blue cheese dressing!? You might as well eat a Big Mac & fries. Meat is horrible for you and unnatural for humans to consume. But alsomeat should be the basis of your whole diet. Seriouslycan we celebrate those who are making an effort toward changing their habits and living healthier rather than having arguments online about who’s right and who’s wrong!? Because at the end of the day, there’s no perfect nutrition plan aside from the one that works for YOU that you can stick with long-term. Simple as that. It may take some time for you to find exactly what that is, but once you do, don’t let yourself get distracted by anything else. If you need further support with finding what works for you, I’d love to meet 1-on-1 via Zoom ($120 value) and talk strategies specifically to you! Click below to schedule a time for us to chat. https://heatherbinns.as.me/StrategySession I’m here to help!

He spent time in Texas receiving valuable training and insight at the Dallas Mavericks recovery facility, where he was also introduced to many more amazing recovery modalities. His lifelong experience as an athlete, life-changing discovery of whole-body cryotherapy, and experience as a health & wellness advocate has since directed his passion for safe and effective recovery as his true calling.
