The Weekly Fill #02
Why the more you know is not always an asset + the best health tools are actually free (get the list).
Do you ever feel like the more you know, the worse you are?
Like with every podcast episode, every headline, every new study, you somehow end up more confused, more overwhelmed, and farther away from the wellness you were promised?
You’re not imagining this.
It’s not because knowledge is bad, but it actually comes down to integration.
You most likely have the right information. It just doesn’t feel like it because you’ve never lived it out to know what you need, and this may make you feel like you just don’t know enough.
Leading to a life of gathering more.
More supplements.
More tracking.
More discipline.
More planning.
But what if I told you that most likely, you have what you need?
It’s the key to instant results. Using what you have to create what you desire. And we miss it because we live our lives consumed with what we don’t have, that we can’t see what we do have.
Honestly, it’s the cycle of insanity.
You’re just focused on the wrong things!
Make sure you sign up for my upcoming live class, Uncovering Your Health Blueprint, to shift this focus. It’s a class of action, not more knowledge. If you’re willing to pull up your bootstraps and do the work.
Get all the details about the class and how to sign up here!
This week, I want to encourage you to stop gathering more and start living what you know.
If you’re looking for a place to start, here are a few places. Pick one that resonates with you!
Create a wellness plan and start living it (Here are 5 Secrets To Create The Perfect Wellness Plan)
Do a little Life Edit. Use the next few weeks to clean up your foundation and prepare your space before you create change. Because honestly, if you’re living life just trying to “keep up,” you don’t have the energy to build new.
What is one thing you know makes you feel good, but you rarely live out?
If you scan through your past, you can most likely think of a time in your life when you felt good. Stop and contemplate, what actions were you taking? How were you living?
Pinpoint one or two things you were doing in this season. The things you have lived experience with.
What is one way you can incorporate them into your week?
I’m not saying force it, but experiment and see if it still makes you feel good.
You already have what you need to live healthy.
I’d argue that one of the most damaging misconceptions in health is that you don’t have what you need to live it. We’ve been led to believe you need a better program, a new system, or a thousand-dollar supplement routine to get well.
Health has become so far outside of ourselves, so big, that it feels nearly impossible. Even worse is when you’re taught the endless free solutions to your health, they seem too good to be true, too cheap to work. So you run back to what’s complicated and expensive.
But let me remind you, those things aren’t required. Health isn’t a chase. It’s how you live. You have plenty of ways (most of which are free) to start creating it today.
Look around at what you already have. Charge your body battery with the basics before you reach for anything else.
Reflection:
Where am I trying to complicate health? Does it need to be complicated?
What are the basic things I could do this week to charge my body?
More Things Filling My Week:
Reading: I’m in a season of re-reading books I love. I’m digging back into one of my favorites, The Body Keeps the Score. (spoiler, but he’s coming on the podcast later this year!)
Morning ritual: I’ve been doing this morning devotional for about 5 years, and I still love it.
Daily Steps: Walking isn’t just something I have to do; I choose it because it energizes me. We’re not currently in a walking challenge, but let this be a little motivation to keep getting your steps!
My Favorite Recipe of the Week: The Viral Big Mac Smash Burger Tacos. We’ve been making a version similar to this.
