I like to exercise when I’m actually doing it, but the problem is finding motivation to begin. I’d also like to eat healthier than I do now, but where do I begin? I don’t want to look upon a healthy lifestyle as something distant and unreachable. I want to create one right now!

A: Hi, Lisa! I think the key is to make a decision and then learn to do one or two new things at the same time. Not 10! It is possible to form new habits, but it takes some time and patience and effort. When you look upon that road that leads to whatever destination you want to reach, it can be overwhelming and long if you try to make it in one drive, but if you stop a few times along the way … maybe it can even be enjoyable?

I would recommend going back to Week 1 of the Body-Mind Transformation in this blog. Why don’t you take a week or two to focus on one task at a time. Take the form of exercise you like the most and make a commitment to do that 2-3 times per week to begin … and start building from there! Also explore the 10 Powerfoods in other blog posts … Honestly, just by reading and following the blog, you can gently create a healthier lifestyle. :)

Wanna try? Do you think you are worth it? To give yourself an HONEST chance for something better?
I believe you can. Live Loud!

Do you have a question? Don’t be shy – ask it here!
