How do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Is it a reflection of what is inside? Or is it a reflection of neglect and what you put before yourself?
Many of us came to be health coaches because of our own health challenges. We were either looking for an answer, to learn more or to be able to share the things we learned in our journey with others in order to make their lives better.
In your effort to gain this knowledge and share it, have you continued to make constant improvements…. or did you stop – to take care of others?
Life happens to health coaches too. We have physical and emotional obstacles. We lose focus on our own needs. We forget that life is a journey and we have to keep moving forward to keep from falling back.
It is not okay and if we don’t address it, things will get worse. Sometimes, because of what we do, we focus more on our failure than our special background and tools to turn things around and move forward again.
One can have all the knowledge of what needs to be done, but without the action, it is of no use.
Instead of me telling you what you need to do to reach your potential (because you already know). I ask you to list 3 things you can do tomorrow to move told your goals.
Don’t go back to work or move on to another blog until you do that. Let us learn from you. Please list below 3 things you can do today…not tomorrow…to move toward your goals.
Share with your friends!
3 things I did today to move toward my goals: 1) cooked a great meal for my family with lots of love; 2) took a long walk with my husband and our dog; and 3) finished a presentation to be given next week. Tomorrow – church and relaxing with the family!

I absolutely LOVE this exercise. The 3 things that I can do:
1. Make non-negotiable time for my morning routine, which includes meditation, journaling, water, and breakfast.
2. Go for a walk. Some days, especially in winter, it’s easy to just bundle up inside all day. Fresh air is inspirational, grounding, and calming for me.
3. Eat on a proper schedule. Sometimes I get caught up in whatever I’m doing a push back meals. Or I forget to pack a lunch or snacks.
Oh, and drink water! Lots and lots of water! I know that’s four things, but I value them all. Thanks for encouraging me to get that “on paper”. <3
I know exactly what you mean about the cold. I would just like to move my laptop in and stay under the covers and warm. HA! That is one step worse.
Today’s self care included:

2)nourished my body with healthy whole foods between projects
3)sipped hot tea which warmed my body and made my work more enjoyable
Sipppp…it is amazing what hot tea will do for anythhing! Thanks Sheila.

This is so timely! I have so many, many things happening right now that are pulling me away from taking care of myself and need to remember to put my oxygen mask on first:-) So here is my plan 1)Continue my quiet time in the mornings for daily devotions and prayer time 2) Go outside and walk/hike/run 5-6 days a week and take my big dog Henry along too 3) Take a serious look at my “to do” list and decide what to let go of. Thanks for the great reminder Cathy!
