Experience the Power of Gratitude to Change Your Life

There’s an old saying that goes, roughly, You can’t be grateful AND resentful at the same time.

The truth is, there’s just nothing more powerful in motivating change than practicing an attitude of gratitude every day.

Feeling like you’re not making any progress? Stop and think about what you’ve done so far, and express gratitude for it.
Tired of seeing “everybody else” succeed when you’re struggling? Stop and think about what you’ve achieved so far, and express gratitude for it.
Worried that you won’t get something you want? Stop and think about what you have, and express gratitude for it.

It works every time.

You don’t even have to wait till you feel bad about something. Set aside time each day to say “thank you” – to whomever you chose. It could be a person, your idea of God, the universe, in your gratitude journal… it doesn’t really matter.

“In positive psychology research, gratitude is strongly and consistently associated with greater happiness. Gratitude helps people feel more positive emotions, relish good experiences, improve their health, deal with adversity, and build strong relationships,” Harvard Medical School wrote.

You woke up. Be thankful.
You’re in a home. Be thankful.
You have water to drink. Be thankful.

In November and throughout the year, gratitude unlocks progress.

Do you practice gratitude?

This Creates Your Reality

Be careful what you think about because what you think COMES TRUE. 😮

Seriously. 💯

Where you are in life right now, at this moment, is a result of the thoughts you’ve chosen each day…

And how those thoughts made you feel…

And how you acted on your thoughts and feelings.

A leads to B leads to C, plain and simple.

So, if you want to be in a better place, start by changing your thoughts. I don’t mean the thoughts that involuntarily flit across your consciousness a million times a day. I mean the ones you decide to grab onto, turn over in your head, contemplate … even when doing so only makes you feel bad, worse and worst.

Those thoughts? They are not “you,” and you are the boss.

If you want to be happy, you must learn to focus on thoughts that lead to positive feelings and outcomes. ✅ 𝑰𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒂𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒑𝒂𝒔𝒕 𝒇𝒂𝒊𝒍𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒔, 𝒄𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒔𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒇𝒐𝒄𝒖𝒔 𝒐𝒏 𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒔𝒖𝒄𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒔.

“I wish I had met you sooner.”

This is a very familiar statement that comes from people I work with. I am usually one of the last stops on the train of solving people’s issues.

Once they start to feel and generally understand the what, how, and why, they realize that this approach, the osteopathic approach, is a very effective way to correct their issues, balance and strengthen the body and leave them more empowered.

It’s not that I am doing something crazy, I am just working with the body on how it wants to be treated.

Too often, fitness and corrective exercises are not 𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙘 enough. Imagine that you are using a microscope on your body to see where it REALLY needs assistance. Your body is like links in a chain. Each link needs some sort of training and possibly therapy. And each link will need something a little different, or it won’t respond properly. And if it doesn’t respond, it will become weaker than the rest. And you are only as strong as your weakest link.

Other programs fail to realize how complex the body is and ALL the scientific research that has gone into understanding it. People latch onto one or two studies and think that this should apply in perpetuity and for the whole body. Studies are done in isolation, and your body doesn’t work in isolation. So having a program that 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 is imperative to your progress and health.

Your body is an interconnected and interdependent being. That means it functions 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆. And so it should be trained and treated holistically. Only focusing on the area you want to work on is extremely short-sighted and will cause you to stop your progress in its tracks and eventually cause issues. This is why I will always think about where else in the body the issue ALSO may be coming from.

It’s not magic, but the results are pretty magical. You have no idea how good your body can feel and function until you give it a program that allows it to go there. And if your body is happy, it works with you and allows you to flourish in all the activities and the life you want to have.

I have a 13-week online program where I help 40+-year-old active people who are frustrated that they feel stiff, in pain, can’t be as active or engage with their friends, family, and community as they want, get out of pain and stiffness, and back to the life they want to live.

“I want to make sure I’m doing it right.”

I hear this all the time with people in my program, and it is coming from a good place, but it ends up being a crutch.

You want to make sure you are doing what you are supposed to be doing to get the results you are looking for. But this quickly turns into “I don’t want to do it on my own because I’ll mess up.”

Otherwise known as the “I need to be perfect fear.”

As a recovering perfectionist, there is no perfection. Instead, there is picking the right path, doing the thing, messing up, and learning perpetually.

Certainty is a myth.

It’s called practice for a reason. You learn the exercises by taking time and working on them. By doing so, you understand what it means for your body by doing, not by me (or anybody else) just telling you what to do.

This process is ignored in Health and fitness. And it’s because of the way it has been presented to “you.”

Exercise is a way to show your body love so that you can be active. However, just being active is not all that your body needs. It is challenging to dig in and use exercises that address what you NEED.

And by challenging, I don’t mean how it’s presented now, strictly through exertion and sweating. Running and trying to push a brick wall down is challenging and makes you sweat, but I seriously doubt if that is an “exercise” you need.

Exertion and sweating are a small part of what happens when you focus your energies on being specific. You get challenged mentally, emotionally, and possibly spiritually as well as physically. And that challenge of you practicing over and over again is what gets you results if you choose a program that knows how to be specific for you.

You wouldn’t expect to get it perfect on your first day in school. Likewise, you wouldn’t expect to get it perfect on your first day on the job.

Sounds silly when you say it out loud, doesn’t it?

You are smart enough to know that vision, commitment, and time put in are the ways to succeed. It has been what you have used to be successful for the rest of your life.

Health and fitness are no different. But you need to take it in and apply it.

How does this resonate for you?
