COMMUNITY + COACHING = CHANGE

Why Having a Coach is Vital to Your Success We all like to believe we’re capable of running 100% of our existence by ourselves, yet it is painfully obvious that we don’t know what we don’t know. In other words, oftentimes we’re blind to our own barriers to success. And these barriers to our success oftentimes masquerade as logical-sounding reasons why we cannot accomplish what we’re fully capable of accomplishing. So why is having a coach important? Of tremendous value he...re is the fact that they are on the outside looking in, able to see what I can't see, and then articulate it in a way that allows me to see it and make the necessary changes. The shift in perspective offers by those who support you is invaluable. Another huge gift in the coaching process is accountability. Your coach expects you to do what you say and say what you do. How many of you have noticed that when you have a workout buddy, you are far more likely to show up at the gym? Making a commitment to do a certain thing at a certain time and knowing someone outside of ourselves is expecting us to follow through increases our success in doing so. Sometimes people will say that they can be accountable to themselves. While that’s a lovely thought, most of us are less than stellar at keeping our word with ourselves and tend to fare better when we give our word to someone else. So why is it we do so much better when someone else, perhaps a coach, is involved? It takes a village to deal with our conditioned self. By that, the part of us that developed to protect us, typically in childhood, from judgment, hurt, and shame. Unfortunately that conditioned self part of us still functions in a child-like capacity so its skills at taking care of us are very limited, and often unproductive. Our conditioned self is reactive, fear-driven, worried, anxious, feels heavy and burdened, contracting, negative, distorted in its views, and trapped in a victim stance. Clearly you can see how this is not conducive to success either personally or professionally! On the other hand, our coaches hold us to a different standard. They support us operating from our authentic self. Signs that you are in your authentic self include coming from faith vs fear, taking positive action, reaching out for support from loving others, expansive thinking, feeling empowered and self-loving, breathing fully, and feeling energetically light. Again, clearly this is a much more productive way to stay on track with goals, ultimately leading to success in your business and your life. Tell us how having a COACH has made a positive impact in your life.

It’s Tip Tuesdayand today’s tip is on electrolytes! What are they and why do we need them? How to make your own. This fits into our hydration commitment. Electrolytes are minerals in your body that have an electric charge. They are in your blood, urine, tissues, and other body fluids. Electrolytes are important because they help balance the amount of water in your body. Electrolytes are electrically charged minerals and compounds that help your body do much of its work ... producing energy and contracting your muscles, for example. Sodium, chloride, potassium and calcium are all types of electrolytes. When to drink: Drink lots of fluid during early stages of exercise and competition. You absorb water better during this time. Electrolytes are your friends: After about an hour of relatively intense activity, you will NEED electrolytes. You need to replace minerals lost through sweat. Here’s a recipe to make your own electrolytes drink! #tiptuesday #electrolytes #stayhydrated #wholebodystrong

Happy Mindset Monday!!! FEAR is an acronym: False Evidence Appearing... Real There is no true threat of immediate physical danger, no threat of a loss of someone dear to us, actually nothing there at all! Studies show that only about 8% of your fears actually come true. Meaning roughly 92% of the things we worry about never happen! FEAR is an illusion. Replace your current fear over something with the following acronym! #mindsetmonday #nevermissamonday #fear #faithoverfear #wholebodystrong
