Juicing and Meditation – A Great Combination for Spring

The focus on warmer weather and fresh starts makes healthy eating a popular choice for spring. Healthy eating is wonderful, but do you know you can enhance the effects of a good diet through meditation?

You may not think meditation is for you, but it has something for everyone, even the most cynical ones. It has the ability to relieve pain, bring clarity to all areas of life, to improve the skin, and generate a feeling of all round serenity, which helps with any area of stress within life.

It is no use working hard on your career, family, social activities if you cannot relax properly to enjoy them. As you work hard to make improvements to your life, make it your mission, a duty to yourself, to cultivate calmness and clarity, which will aid in these improvements.

Meditation is a means to tap into your inner self. No noise, no over analysing, just you. Maybe even a part of yourself you have not encountered before. It is a gift to yourself and here are three reasons why meditation is a must for those looking for self-improvement.

Meditation Heals

Meditation takes you to a very private place. It brings a sense of profound rest leading to a deep feeling but doesn’t leave you drained. Instead it gets you re-energised.

Practicing meditation regularly is a discipline. If you are a regular dieter or stick to a healthy food plan, you’ll know discipline is based upon motivation and upkeep. Like a juice plan, you must remain dedicated. In the case of meditation, you should practice regularly, every day or twice a week.

Meditation can heal you at your core. You can reconnect with yourself and your intuition will be improved as well, providing a deep relaxation, which leads to clarity.

It helps with physical problems, too. Those who practice regularly find they sleep deeply. Recurring ailments like stress headaches can also be eased from meditation as well as inevitable processes such as menopause.

Those with addictions of varying levels of severity can use meditation, too. Even if it is just cutting down on something such as caffeine, the clarity which comes from meditation will be good for you. We like to feel our best even more so in the summer months, so it’s a good time to start being proactive.

Meditation Reveals the Real You

Since meditation is an act of self-love, one thing that nobody else can do or give to you, over time your own self-compassion will improve. You will benefit, as will those around you.

Life is stressful, and meditation can make it easier to become less reactive to issues around you, to feel less anger and frustration. Everyone can benefit from being more patient, and meditation naturally affirms this within you. The key is that you become more comfortable being yourself, even if you thought you were comfortable prior to meditation.

Look and Feel Healthier (and younger!)

According to The Journal of Neuroscience, meditating for five years or more keeps you physiologically five years younger than your actual chronological age. The healthy habits from meditation can be cultivated to cut down on food which is bad for us. This is according to the

The healthy habits from meditation can be cultivated to cut down on food that is bad for us. According to the Journal Emotion and The Journal of Behavioural Medicine, those who meditate have significantly higher levels of DHEA, a natural steroid hormone that reduces stress, improves memory and regulates weight.

Everyone likes to feel youthful during the summer months. A new lease on life will improve progress and motivation in all areas of work. The ability to enjoy life with improved clarity will create better experiences for you and for those you care about the most.

Be Brilliant Like Einstein

Like most people, I have my share of celebrity crushes. Though their legacies are very much alive, most of the influencers who make me swoon happen to be dead.

I was looking over some of my favorite, go-to inspiration sources and came across one of those mentors from the beyond: Einstein. I’m no scientist and I’m certainly not a mathematician, but many of Einstein’s quotes can help us on a daily basis.  

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.” ~ Einstein

Who isn’t filled with awe when looking at what this one individual brought to our world and society? Obviously, Einstein is one of my role models. Many of the things I appreciate about him are not that well known. Yes, he crafted the general theory of relativity, yet he struggled to learn French. Brilliant and even studious in math, he had a relentless disregard for the status quo, conformity, and dogma. He broke the rules, tested limits, bucked authority and often changed paths, or even quit things in the middle. I make many of my decisions with my gut. I’m well informed, but ruled by instinct and intuition. My sister makes a pros and cons chart, weighing out every option when making decisions. She crunches data, looks for statistical findings, and relies on “the facts.”

These are both valid ways to make a decision. But, what happens when your gut and “the facts” don’t line up? What do you do when all that evidence (“the facts”) point to no but your heart, your soul, your inside dances and screams toward yes!

Over the last year, I have been taking huge personal and professional risks. I left what I thought would be my dream job: a well-compensated position pioneering a new wellness approach for primary care at Mayo Clinic, a highly esteemed organization. It was an amazing job with great benefits and connections; all the facts said stay. But, my heart said go forth and create your own program of wellness and offer it up to the masses in the way you feel it would be most beneficial.

Logic doesn’t always work. It doesn’t always lead you to the “right” answer. I’m not saying don’t look at the evidence or throw out practicality, but don’t underestimate the power of inspiration and creativity. Maybe something that you want to do isn’t the most practical thing. Maybe it doesn’t even look doable. Sometimes when we make a bold decision, the power of our imagination kicks in and we find ways to make it work that we would never have conceived using logic alone.

I’m a visionary. This is not bragging or self-promotion, it’s just the truth, and it is both a gift and a curse. I often see trends or have insights years before they hit the public vortex of media. I rarely share these pioneering thoughts until, well, now. Because, why not?!

Joy in looking and comprehending is nature’s most beautiful gift.” ~ Einstein {tweet out}

Nature is one of the most powerful healing elements. Have you ever had that experience where you actually notice the beauty of your surroundings? I mean truly connect with it? Most days we rush around too busy to notice all of what is happening in this natural world all around us. We miss out on it. Nature is gorgeous and amazing and happening around us all the time, even in the inner city. We are connected to, inspired by, and taught by our environment. Get out into it, or get it into your house. Be in awe; be curious.

Maybe you’re not a “nature lover.” No matter. You can connect to nature’s healing power. Anyone can. Just give it a minute. Bundle up and brave the weather for a brisk walk. Open up your window and let the birdsong and spring breeze in. Pick up a leaf or a rock. Wonder about it. Be part of nature. It’s healing.

When we are contemplating decisions we look inward, but it’s good to take time to reflect outside of ourselves. Sometimes what we see outside changes the way we think, feel, and act. Give yourself that gift.

When the solution is simple, God is answering.”  ~ Einstein

For years, I practiced yoga with a dear friend (she now lives in Paris with her husband) and I remember her saying this to me time and time again: “The best decision or solution is most often the most simple.” It’s not the one steeped in drama and details, or the one with a well-laid-out but complex or rigid plans.

Have you had those moments where you push your “solution” or your “desire” into a situation? I know I have, and I can tell you how it worked out – bleah. When we surrender and allow the situation to have its own miraculous unfolding, it happens in ways far beyond what you or I could ever imagine.

Sometimes the answer is just simple, and we make it complex and hard.

We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” ~ Einstein

How often do you make a decision on any given day? Thousands of options are ahead of us, and we navigate our days with the past tucked under our wings. I see myself repeating things I have done before or attempting to remedy a situation using what worked for me in the past. We use a different energy and have access to a different mindset and plane of thinking when we are solving a situation verses when we are in a situation. When we are struggling through something and attempting to bring some kind of order to what might look like disorder, it can bring up some anxiety or fear and send us right into survival thinking, locking us out of using those higher planes of thinking and being (another one of my dead mentors, Maslow, came up with this revolutionary way of thinking called the Hierarchy of Needs). This is entirely reasonable, but not very helpful. Only when we can see for ourselves that all things really will work out do we start to see something bigger and use resources that are in our reach to move us past just surviving. With a bigger perspective, my friends, we can reach past the lowest hanging fruit and get to that apple at the top of the tree that we really want.

Be your own Einstein today and show your brilliance.

Habit? How to Make It Stick

With a new year comes a reset button. The slate is wiped clear and we step into a fresh dream of how our ideal life could be. This year I will… (fill in the your desire here). By January’s end our resolutions are gathering dust. You may find yourself snoozing instead of hitting the gym, or you start to give in on that 2 glass of wine rule and have an extra one before bed (just this one time…right?)

But some people seem to have so much more staying power. You know, “Perfect Patty”, your co-worker who seems to be on a roll with her daily lunch of healthy salads and taking the stairs. What actually makes the difference to those who keep on track with a new goal and are successful?

When our shiny new resolutions begin to slip, it’s easy to think things like, “What is wrong with me? Why can’t I do it? Do I just need more will power? Do they just want ‘it’ more than I do? Do they have more support?  What if I had more money to hire a fancy personal trainer? Or an assistant to manage my crazy schedule? THEN I will be successful!”

I work with people to make lifestyle changes, and when we are successful, these changes make big positive impacts across their lives, deepening a sense of purpose and building a strong foundation to go forth and be even more awesome. I want to make that difference with people so, of course, I am always nerding it up on new brain science around habit, routine, structure, and what we are now finding about why we do what we do and why we don’t. Here is what I found.

Willpower Is So Yesterday

Put down the bat of self disapproval and shame. Turns out, what was once thought of as low will or being lazy is just lack of planning. Planning can be packing our lunch the night before rather than in the a.m. as we rush out the door. It can also look like a new schedule or bringing the gym shoes to the office so we have no excuses. We are either setting up our environment for success or we’re just mindlessly going with what was already in play. We can plan and create an atmosphere that is physically conducive to making the changes we desire.

Make a Plan for Success and Failure

Plan for what will you do when it fails. When you oversleep (or umm push snooze 5 times), or you have a sick kid, or a deadline that is dropped in your lap, what is your plan for that? What we often define as failure (relapse, falling off the wagon, repeating old patterns we are comfy in that cause us to feel miserable) are all part of what being successful looks like. It teaches us how to dust ourselves off and keep going. Most of life will not go as planned, so having the “oh sugar backup” is where it’s at to getting our well-deserved success.

Track It To Change It

Powerhouse digital companies know this about us, we need a lot of cues to change our behavior, so they are coming up with resources to help us win. Seems everyone is wearing a smart device that measures, track, time and measure our efforts. Tracking can be helpful to show us how we are failing and well, that’s successful. We no longer use the power of will but now can use consistency and accountability.

Remember, a new habit is new and you are in fact learning. There is a curve to this, so allow for it. We can measure it with complicated technical devices or use a pencil and paper, it really doesn’t matter. The key is consistency. How you create the consistency is what will bring you the results you desire.

Again and Again

So if it’s not really willpower, then what is it? Turns out it’s simple, a matter of repetition. We are what we repeatedly do, says Aristotle. What we all want is to turn our new habits into automatic action without thought. What can I do to have automaticity alive and well in my life? According to top scientists and the wisdom of sages throughout history, it’s all about consistency.

Let It Sink In

Give it time. How much time? How much time does it take before a new habit becomes hardwired? Some say a mere 21 days. I have read and heard everything under the stars from the range of 21 days to 180 days. So what is the magic number, really? And why? When you are giving everything you’ve got to making change, it would be nice to know when you can expect your payoff. Just like everything else in life, it depends on the individual and the depth of dive or habit complexity for you. Simply adding a fruit to your daily diet maybe be child’s play for some, while exercising consistency could take a bit more effort. So allow for your own timing to come forth and enjoy the journey.

How To Make It Stick

Plan it. Measure it. Then repeat it and let it sink in. Soon you will have a new habit you don’t even have to think about. Now that is awesome.
