When I'm supporting my clients to make changes in their nutrition we often start with 5 Day Reset Program. It's such an excellent way to jump start or restart a healthy lifestyle. 

During the 5 Day Reset you fall in love with veggies again and learn how to make  truly satisfying smoothies, snacks and meals. And when you learn how to make a truly satisfying salad you will get obsessed with the endless options you can create!

Compassionate Buddha

Compassionate Buddha - Om Mani Padme Hum

The most famous chant in the world is the Compassionate Buddha "Om Mani Padme Hum" which translates to "Hail to the jewel in the lotus."

It is the mantra of the Buddha of Compassion, known by the Chinese as Goddess Kuan Yin.

The mantra calms fears, soothes concerns, and heals broken hearts.

Read these words, say these words, and try chanting these beautiful words.

If you are uncomfortable with the spiritual reference you can recite a prayer, scripture, or mantra from your belief system that calls in compassion towards yourself and towards others.

So who can you surprise with a sneaky act of kindness today?

Hum your favorite song for the next 20 seconds.

Quiet your buzzing brain in this fun way.

You can play 'name that tune' as you hum along and make a game out of it.

Victory List

Write a Victory List.

Keeping a list of victories is a way to quiet the little voice that says you don’t do enough.

Your list is proof that you're making progress, and it can help you stay hopeful and excited about the days and victories to come.

Jot down your recent small victories to help you recognize and celebrate your accomplishments and growth.

Now ask yourself, what would you like to see on your victory list?

This may spark some excitement about your infinite possibilities!

Fake it

Your mood is elevated and your stress is reduced if you plaster a big smile on your face, even for a short period of time.

(Frowns have been shown to have the opposite effect.)

The smile doesn't have to be based on real emotion - faking it works.

Try it now, a full, true smile that involves your eyes as well as your mouth. That's almost certainly a more potent mood changer.

And here's a healthy contagion...

If you do it in public, those around you will be lifted as well. Our brains are wired for sociability. In particular, if one person observes another person smile, mirror neurons in that person's brain will light up as if he were smiling herself.

So, smile in private to boost YOUR mood... and why not extend that benefit to those around you by smiling in public?

The Five-Second Rule

The Rule is a simple, research-backed metacognition tool that creates immediate and lasting behavior change.

Metacognition, by the way, is just a fancy word for any technique that allows you to beat your brain in order to accomplish your greater goals.

Using the Rule is simple. Whenever you feel the instinct fire up to act on a goal or a commitment—or the moment you feel yourself hesitate on doing something and you know you should do—use the Rule.

Start by counting backward to yourself: 5- 4- 3- 2- 1. The counting will help you focus on the goal or commitment and distract you from the worries, thoughts, and fears in your mind.

As soon as you reach “1,” move.

That’s it.

Forest Bathing

Forest bathing is the practice of immersing yourself in nature in a mindful way and using your senses to derive a whole range of benefits for your physical, mental, and emotional health.

It is also known as Shinrin-yoku. ‘Shinrin’ means forest and ‘Yoku’ stands for bathing. The idea took birth in Japan in the 1980s and proved to be a very effective tool to overcome the ill effects of a hectic life and stressful work environment.

Connecting with nature allows the stressed portions of your brain to relax.

Positive hormones are released in the body. You feel less sad, angry, and anxious. It helps to avoid stress and burnout, and aids in fighting depression and anxiety. Being in nature is known to boost immunity and leads to lesser days of illness as well as faster recovery from injury or...
