Do you ever have those days, weeks or even seasons where your creativity muscle is just flowing? Well, the creative juices are flowing over here my friends and I am feeling so inspired to help you shift your energy too!
Many of us know that as women, our monthly cycles have a heavy impact on our ability to be creative. There are times during our cycle where our bodies need us to simply rest and take it easy. During these times, it's often hard to listen to our bodies and relax more and just enjoy the downtime and let stress or worry flow from us. The changing seasons can also have this effect on us, and as a result, many of my clients have found themselves with a lack of energy and motivation this week.
I see this often working as a health and wellness coach, and it made me realize that there are many other people out there that may be feeling this way too. Life happens, and inevitably we are going to experience the lows of it, but there are simple ways in which we can take action to help ourselves move forward to shift to a more positive and abundant state. When we have these seasons, it trickles down into so many other parts of our lives. For example, if you’re unhappy in your job or your relationship, you likely don’t have enough energy left to take proper care of your body, mind, and soul; further pulling you into a negative state and the cycle continues.
My answer to each of my clients was the same on how to move forward, get focused and feel like themselves again. They are all so important, and today I want to share these things with you. I encourage you to TRY to incorporate them in your day to day life. I promise that you will start to see positive things happen for you again and you will be able to move through the rut you are currently experiencing.
FIVE TIPS TO SHIFT YOUR ENERGY:
DRINK WATER: Time and time again you will be reminded to drink water and time and time again you will forget, but! It is SO important, so I am here to remind you again.
SELF LOVE: Many people who are struggling have issues with their mindset. Last week I sat down with the owners of @lovepowerandco, Lindy (@lindysood) and Anna (@_annalozano), and we talked about how important it is to have positive self-talk and to learn to love ourselves. Positive self-awareness will ensure that we are able to make the right decisions for our well-being.
EATING FRUITS, VEGGIES, HEALTHY FATS AND PROTEINS: If you are stressing your body by eating unhealthy foods, it is inevitably going to cause sickness in your body. For example, you’re going to feel tired, lethargic, and overtime the negative effects of this will compound.
MOVEMENT: Having movement every single day in any form you are able to is so important. If you are unable to get in a more physical movement, try incorporating massage or slow stretching so that your muscles and cells are exposed to stimulation.
SLEEP: Now, if you’re a parent, this is going to be tricky. But regardless, it is so important that you do your best to give your body the rest it needs.
Next time something is going on in your life, no matter how big or small, try paying attention to these 5 things. These are basic, but yet so, so important. Once we do become more mindful of these things, we can incorporate the missing piece into our daily practice again. As you do this, you will find that your body responds quicker and quicker to the various nourishment you are providing it; whether that be for the body, mind or soul.
By taking small steps to move forward, you can make BIG changes in your life. If you’re interested in making a change, making a shift in your life, and moving forward I would love to coach you on your journey!
