your mindset will CHANGE your wellness journey ✨
“i have to” —> “i GET to”
- you never HAVE to do anything… if you’re trying to improve your fitness journey, it’s such a privilege to be able to go move your body ! working out seems wayyyy more like a chore when you put it as something you have to do… make it something you look forward to and something you get to make space for in your day 🏋🏼♀️
“i can’t do it” —> “i CAN do it”
- i promise you’re stronger than you think you are !!!!! and not just in the gym… but you can almost always push yourself through one more rep when you think you’re done 🙃
“nothing’s working” —> “i’ll find a SOLUTION”
- why isn’t it working ? what can you do to make it work ? it’s actually SUCH a petpeve of mine when someone just accepts the outcome of something because it’s just how it happened… cool, now change the outcome and find a solution to make it what you want it to be, or a compromise between what it was and what you want 🕺🏼
“i don’t have time” —> “i’ll MAKE time”
- you always have at least 1 minute to spare. ONE MINUTE !!! that’s it ! trust me, i’ve been there when ive had days where i feel like i can barely think and im just going through the motions because im so busy. but if you want something bad enough, you’ll make the time. even one minute everyday is better than nothing !! start making baby steps daily towards your larger goal ✨
“i don’t have a choice” —> “i MAKE my own decisions”
- the one thing i disliked most about being vegan, was having to tell servers at restaurants that i needed my food to be cooked with no dairy, eggs, or other animal based products. i felt so embarrassed to ask for a modification because i never wanted to be a burden. but after accepting so many things in my life for the sake of not speaking up, i realized it was only hurting me more. so what if for the 2 minutes you’re talking to a server you’ll most likely never see again, you ask to make a modification ????? as long as you’re doing it in a nice way, YOU control your life. don’t just accept what’s easiest 🤗

Shifting your mindset is crucial for achieving wellness. Instead of feeling burdened by obligations, recognize that fitness and self-care are privileges we should cherish. For example, tell yourself 'I GET to workout' rather than 'I have to'. This minor change in your language can create a more uplifting approach towards your fitness journey. In challenging moments when you feel stuck, remind yourself to find a solution instead of accepting defeat; self-empowerment is key. Embracing the belief that you CAN push through barriers is essential, as it applies both in and out of the gym. The small act of committing even a single minute each day can lead to significant progress over time. Moreover, making conscious choices in your health journey can lead to personal growth. For instance, advocating for your needs when dining out, instead of defaulting to what’s easy, can transform your experiences. Ultimately, recognizing that you hold the power to dictate your decisions is vital for a fulfilling wellness journey.
