Some Loving Inspiration
There are things we don’t even know that hold us back. They hold us back because we feel bad about them. Sometimes they hold us back because we feel bad about feeling bad about them … or even thinking them. If you find yourself: – Obsessing about a situation – Thinking how things would be different if you just did this or that – Feeling guilty or ashamed – Beating yourself up or – Beating yourself up about beating yourself up! Read the below and start to ...
Do you ever find yourself thinking you’re not good enough, pretty enough, thin enough, or whatever enough? And that these very thoughts are preventing you from moving forward? I have. We all have. You’re not alone. But, what if you’re ready to move forward? You’re ready to ditch your limiting beliefs, end negative self-talk , banish body bashing, and redefine a new relationship with YOU? Because you absolutely can. This is possible for you. You just need some tools, which is where I come in. Today, I’m sharing my 3-step ...
“We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.” ― Carlos Castaneda This is a very powerful quote that hit me hard. Whether we’re happy or miserable falls on us. A large determinant in which way we go is our mind. Or more specifically, our thoughts. What I’ve seen, through my work, is that there are two types of people—“dwellers” and “fast reactors.” “Dwellers” are more sensitive, take more time to process emotions and will let something that bothers ...
Today, I’m sharing with you 11 perspective changes (ranging from weight to exercise to motivation to success to relationships) that have made a huge difference in my life as well as clients’ lives. They can make a huge difference in your life too! 1. Focus on food as nourishment, enjoyment & fuel, not as numbers, calories, and stress Forget about the calories, serving size, and stress of whether you can eat that for just a second. Instead, ask yourself if that food is truly going to nourish you and ...
About a year ago, my Aunt asked me a very powerful question, “Corinne, how would you feel if you quit?” I was floored. I asked people how they felt about X, Y and Z all the time, but I never stopped to think about this question in reference to my current situation. At the time, I was working a job, where I loved the people, but I became way burned-out, disillusioned, and unhappy. I had been on overdrive for far too long. We humans aren’t meant to be ...
Your thoughts, feelings, self-talk, and gut feelings all make up your internal voice—that little guiding voice inside of you. Your internal voice is like the gauge for your feel good factor. When you follow it, you feel better. When you ignore it, you feel lost, empty, and a little off track. Whether you’re making a big business decision, embarking upon a new chapter in your life, entering a new relationship, or deciding whether to partake in a certain social situation this weekend, your internal voice is the one you need ...
The other day, the man in my life told me I haven’t been the same over the past month. Not as happy. Not as cheery. Not as “me.” So of course, being who I am and doing what I do, I started some serious thinking on what has changed. I also bought a gigantic new vision board that I’m working on, the book The Happiness Project (so far, it’s amazing), and started doing the worksheet that I have clients fill out before we work together. Yes, I take my own ...
I’m sharing with you a vital tool in my life. I really only share this with clients. But, since it’s helped so many with binge eating and emotional eating (not to mention simple everyday stress), I had to let you in on it. I learned this trick in the 6th grade from a therapist who came into my class to talk about destressing techniques-ha! And ever since that sixth grade day, this tool has transformed my reaction to stress–thank goodness! You can do this anywhere at anytime and no one ...
When was the last time you sat down and thought about what you REALLY wanted out of life? Today, we’re answering hundreds of emails a day, texting rapidly, returning calls, attending meetings, making appointments, picking up and dropping off kids, making meals, grocery shopping … and the list could go on and on. At the end of the day, how often do you find yourself saying, “If only there were more hours in a day?” Likely, quite a bit. It doesn’t have to be like this. You can slow down. ...
Stress. Somehow the word alone creates tension. Yet not all stress is bad. Keep in mind that stress is a normal physiological reaction that allows us to meet the demands of our daily grind—pushing us to accomplish tasks and increase productivity. Think about all those deadlines, meetings, and presentations that you have going on. Would you be able to get them done just as fast without that extra added push of stress? For most of us, the answer is no. Is Your Stress Healthy? However, when stress no longer ...
