241: How to enjoy your summer AND rock your health.
Summer has arrived here in North America and with it comes travel, barbeques, camping trips, and opportunity to disrupt our everyday routines. And saying YES to these things can be so incredibly beneficial to your health.
A lot of women this time of year feel they can say YES to the invitation that is summer OR stay the course with their health goals.
I want to offer that you can do BOTH and, in this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I am going to share with you exactly how to make the most of your summer AND roll into September without feeling like you are “starting over”.
Listen Now!173: The REAL Secret to Rocking Your Swimwear This Summer (it is not what you think)
The diet and fitness industries would have you believe that if you want to rock your swimwear (or any “wear”, for that matter), you need a detox, a highly specialized diet or a new exercise routine.
What you really need, I would argue, is to change the way you are thinking about your body.
When you shift your focus from all that is wrong with your body to all that your body is doing awesomely well, not only do you feel better, but you DO better. You take better care of things you appreciate. #truestory
In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I talk about ways to mend your body image so can spend less time beating yourself up and more time embracing the preciousness of summer.
