LIFT Your Mood

There were so many fit and strong-looking people, and I was a young teenager who was overweight, I feared so many things about the environment.

That anxiousness is very common in the gym.

So how do we handle it?

In this post, we are going to go over 7 tips you can use to get into the gym and exercise with social anxiety.

80% of Americans don't get enough exercise.

With a more sedentary lifestyle, we know a few things can occur:

• Increased levels of depression & anxiety. Less active lifestyles are correlated to depression and anxiety.
• Less resilience to stress. People who live sedentary are more stressed out.
• Lower testosterone levels. Testosterone is on a yearly decline as a result of sedentary lifestyles.
• Poor sleep. Less active lifestyles are correlated to poor sleep quality.

With the New Year right around the corner, we want you to help you be more consistently active so you can minimize these negative effects.

In this post, we will cover seven hacks you can use to motivate yourself in the New Year.

When Daylight Savings happens, it throws a lot of us off because of the time change.

We are forced to wake up later (or earlier) and get to work later (or earlier). This not only affects our work schedules, but our own biological clock (the circadian rhythm) as well.

This can lead to poor sleep quality, poor eating habits, and more.

So what can we do about this?

In this post, we cover how you can FIGHT BACK against the Daylight Savings and re-regulate your circadian rhythm.

As a Precision Nutrition Coach, what we learned through the course is that health is not only a physical thing: it's multi-dimensional.

Health can go beyond the physical and into the mental, emotional, and more.

One of my favorites that I am currently prioritizing is the existential. What am I here for? What is my purpose?

Recently, psychological studies have been exploring exercise and it's importance in discovering or pursuing meaning.

We will be discussing this in this post.

Daylight Savings is coming through this weekend, and we think it's an important time to talk about sleep.

Research has shown that sleep-deprivation is associated with mental health issues like depression and anxiety.
