You can keep moving during the winter.

Living in the northeast, we are lucky enough to experience all the season. This has many benefits but also comes with a few drawbacks. One of the main disadvantages is that most sports and outdoor activities are seasonal. We have to find a way to keep a similar level of activity thought out the year.

 

 

Today we are in the middle of the fall, which means we can still enjoy being outside before the real cold tempters hit. We like you to try to keep some of the levels of walking and other outdoor actives.

 

What are some of the actives we still have time to start and can keep into the winter?

 

Here’s a simple list of choices of actives you can start today and keep till next summer.

Walking
jogging
Biking
Ball playing
Martial art’s
yoga
Swimming
golf

All of the things listed above can be done inside as well. Variation’s of all these are easy to find and usually have a low entry bar.

Swimming and golf, you should probably get some lessons first, but you can easily set up a time at Golf Simulator  and start hitting some balls.

Yoga and walking both can be done by going to a studio or the mall. During the winter, many people go to malls and walk around.

We know that a body in motion stay’s in action. Don’t let the winter take your health and well being down the wrong road.

If you are thinking about trying to get more active and need some help in any way, remember the team at CP is here to help you.

Several weeks ago I asked you to send questions you have about nutrition, eating skills or body image and I got a bunch of great questions! Thank you!!! In this week’s video, we are covering a question that comes up a lot: What can I eat for lunch that:requires little to no prep, will keep me satisfied, and is not highly processed? Do you struggle with that midday break to eat lunch like me?? Many of my clients have come to me really at a loss for lunch specifically, because they haven’t made a plan, and they either grab handfuls of random things together, go through a drive thru, or skip it all together! Does that sound like you? Well, check out this week’s video to see my recommendations for how to make sure those lunches don’t thwart your progress to reaching your health goals. As always, we will start where you are!

Eating at home more than going out to eat is one way to make progress on your health and nutrition because it puts you in full control.

Are you a “perfectionist"? When you strive for perfection, you have good intentions. You want to take care of your health, feel your best, and live a long and happy life with loved ones. One way that perfectionism can show up in our health is through a fancy term known as cognitive distortion also known as all-or-nothing thinking. Striving for excellence can be a really wonderful thing! It means it is important to you to look after yourself! However, all or nothing thinking can also lead to disappointment, burnout, and self-criticism when we inevitably miss a day, or go “off plan”. When our focus is on getting a “perfect” outcome, we lose satisfaction and enjoyment along the way and lose sight of other measures of progress. Want to know one of the greatest predictors of long term success with any behavior change? FLEXIBILITY. Flexibility allows you to come as you are on your best day AND on your worst day. It fosters self-compassion, and helps you to keep moving forward. Check out this video below to find out more!
