Immune System Boosters

Consistency Matters

Stay Consistent with your workouts!

Stay Consistent with your nutrition!

Most importantly, stay consistent with a positive mindset.

That's the difference between winning and losing.

“Today is a healthy success. I am a healthy success.”

With everything going on today it is essential that you keep those positive thoughts flowing and avoid self-criticism!

What we believe about ourselves usually becomes a reality.

So make sure you are your biggest fan!

REMEMBER YOU IMMUNE SYSTEM BOOSTERS:

☐ Get Enough Sleep. This can help improve your body’s natural immune function.

☐ Reduce Stress. Chronic stress appears to wear down your immune system and make you more vulnerable to illness.

☐ Eat a Healthy & Balanced Diet (low in sugar). A balanced diet rich in antioxidants (found in vegetables and fruits) and healthy fats can help support your immune system.

☐ Stay Hydrated. Drinking water helps your cells operate optimally, plus it helps your body more easily process food & eliminate waste.

☐ Exercise. Moderate to intense workouts lasting under an hour help boost your immune system both immediately and in the long run.

You have a very important goal. Sometimes that goal will feel far away and sometimes it will even feel out of reach. And with all the "Corona-craziness" going around it is more important than ever to replace any darkness with light.

Sometimes people will doubt you and sometimes you will doubt yourself. Release the Doubt! There is no room for it! Focus on your Goal! To overcome the doubt you will need a special weapon. Positivity is your special weapon!

Positive energy =positive results! That means being mindful of what you think and say so you can be a positive source of energy for everyone around you. And right now the world needs as much positive energy as it can get! So avoid negativity whenever possible. That doesn't mean pretending everything is sunshine and rainbows. But don't surround yourself with negativity either. Because what you think about it and what you care about shapes what you experience. So be mindful of the words you speak and your intentions. And be even more mindful of what thoughts occupy your mind space. The world needs more healthy positivity and it counting on you to keep your body and thoughts healthy!

Before your body can reach its full metabolism potential it's important we get it running clean -- that's why we do a 48-hour detox. For the next 48 hours, you will live on water, fruits and vegetables with just enough protein to keep your muscle mass.

It's normal to feel a little hungry or tied during a detox. Don't worry, your energy will come back tenfold after the detox!

For the next 2 days, you will primarily be eating fruits and vegetables with a little protein.

Drink plenty of water to help fill up your tummy and remember it's only 48 hours.

You got this!

Did you know that giving your goals accuracy can help you achieve them faster?

For example, let’s say that you have the goal of running a 5k.

Well, instead of just saying, “One day, someday,” you can set a date. Be specific. Give it a concrete timeline.

When you do this, guess what typically happens? You’re ready before the date even arrives. That date helps to motivate you and gives you end in sight.

This is a great strategy that you can use for really anything. College professors use it to help people get their papers done sooner. Ever had a teacher set a ridiculous due date? Odds are that you got it done regardless.

Go through your goals and see if you can assign some dates to them.

Nutrition Tip: Gut Health

Have you heard of probiotics? It seems to be a buzzword of sorts, but for good reason.

Probiotics are little bacteria that actually already exist in your gut. They breakdown food in your gut as a form of their food, which in turn leads them to release various gasses and other nutrients.

This keeps a lot of things in check for you. It goes into proper digestion, brain health, and even your mood. That’s right, the gut is thought to be linked to your mood changes!

You can get probiotics from foods such as yogurt, some cheeses, and other fermented foods. Or you can even get them as a supplement.
