Don't you just hate it when your mind shifts into cruise control because you may think, "I've got this"? Me too! Here are 2 reasons why mindless eating can be unhelpful. 1) Your conscious decision making goes out the window! Mindless eating tends to lead to choices that you regret. Your brain and body are naturally drawn to eating choices that prioritize short-term rewards over long-term gains. 2) You forget how much food you actually did eat. It's hard to keep track of an activity like eating because we do it so many times in so many different locations. Here's the thing, your brain loves to offload strenuous activities like keeping track of what you ate. Mindful decision making is the key! Look, lots of things influence your weight. Kick the scale villain to the curb. Get the clarity you need to stop blaming yourself and build the meaningful life you want. Need a guide?

I don't care why you eat what you eat, but my diet is crucial to my clients. Here's why... Let's start by asking, how does coaching work? There isn't a short answer to that, but one aspect of it is that it is an enquiry into self. It is an ongoing supported conversation about what makes you, you. In my work with clients, one of the fundamental pillars of that conversation is a discussion about values. What's important here is to help the client to uncover what really matters to them. Fundamentally. Deeply. Once you have done that, it becomes easier to make plans and to accomplish them, because you start to act only in accordance with your values. Which is a supercharger for your life. So what has this got to do with a bowl of açaí? A few years ago I would never have chosen this brunch. I'd have chosen the bacon sandwich. But as part of my own enquiry into values, I accidentally became a vegan. Genuinely, I didn't mean to. Just for context, my wife says she had never met anyone who ate as much meat as me. And then, suddenly I was entirely plant-powered. I am not going to tell you why I made that choice today. But if you want to know, feel free to ask. I don't judge others for the choices they make either. For context, my mentor is a huge barbecue fan and we get on famously. So what's the point here? Well, being vegan is often a nightmare. Not many places sell açaí smoothie bowls so it limits my options. It causes problems when people cater, which is embarrassing. I've made Sunday lunch a problem everywhere I go. (Sorry Grandma M.) But, despite all this, I stay vegan. Because when I enquired into my values I found that this was what I had to do. I couldn't not make the change. And so, if you want this level of commitment to your own life, start with a deep and structured discussion into your own values and then get support to make changes. From a coach. I promise you won't regret it. Peace. Plants. Happy Sunday. 🙏🌾💚 ----------------- ❓ What do you think about your values? 👇🏻 Let me know in the comments! #vegan #coaching

Max Lugavere's mantra, Eat Healthy, Live Long, revolutionized my life. Here are three monumental lessons from this journey: 1. The Joy of Real Food My food choices used to be chaotic. But Lugavere's advocacy for natural, unadulterated foods reshaped my palate. Exchanging processed nibbles for fresh, nutrient-rich dishes awakened me to a new world of invigorating energy. 2. Steady Wins the Race Consistency - that's what Eat Healthy, Live Long is all about. It's a marathon, not a sprint, and each day I've learned to make smart choices that promise fruitful rewards in the long run. 3. Food is More Than Fuel Lugavere taught me to create a mindful bond with my plate. No more robotically eating my meals, but cherishing every morsel, every flavor. Embracing Lugavere's mantra has transformed me. It's about quality, not just quantity, of life. Join the journey, choose vitality, choose health. Now, I'm curious to know - what's your food philosophy? Let's motivate each other on the path to a more vibrant life.

Grains of Greatness: Your choice is Your Destiny! These grains are only grains until, - You soak them overnight to use them to absorb their highest nutritive value - Allow them to sprout for another night to make them more nutritious - Then use them in curries, salads, dosas, rice, etc Now if you see, I invested the same effort for all these grains but only, -         Majority sprouted with my 100% effort -         Few managed to break through and began sprouting -         Some did not sprout at all with that same 100% effort This made me ponder…aren’t we all like these grains? - Some of us survive…Some thrive to be able to unleash their full potential with regular 100% efforts - Some have their breakthroughs and dare to step out of their comfort zone with the help of right guidance and direction of teachers, mentors, coaches and friends. - Some are too rigid and stubborn that require extra effort. Rather they are not ready to evolve or simply dead. As I am reflecting on my journey so far, I feel supremely blessed and grateful to have met the right people and mentors and coaches at every step of my roller coaster ride! I am even more grateful to the challenges that were a part of this journey only to make me soar higher and stronger. So I want to ask you today, what kind of chana are you? Let me know in the comments. Till then…I will get to my creative cooking! PRO TIP: Adding black chanas to your diet in monsoon can help with maintaining a healthy gut. #awakening #lifeanalogy #coachingcasestudies #liveyourdream #changeyourlife #growth #personaldevelopment

Life is like a giant smorgasbord with more delicious alternatives than you can ever hope to taste. Choosing a goal often means rejecting some things you want in order to get other things that you want or need even more. Some people fail at this point, before they've even started. Afraid to reject a good alternative for a better one, they try to pursue too many goals at once, achieving few or none of them. Don't get discouraged and don't let yourself be paralyzed by all the choices. You can have much more than what you need to be happy. Make your choice and get on with it. #principleoftheday

Making the shift from scarcity thinking to abundance thinking is actually part of the challenge in decision-making and prioritizing. Having grown up with scarcity where there was rarely enough of what was needed, never mind wanted, set up an operating system of saying yes to all and no to little. Abundance thinking comes with the assumption that there is always more than enough of anything and everything that is wanted and needed, so saying “no” isn’t an act of ungratefulness for the opportunity, but is an act of saying “yes” to the highest and best alignment for the benefit of all concerned.

I am closing the working week enriched with new experiences and insights on shaping organizational culture and “business machine”. I am even stronger believer in these words and even more energized to put them obsessively to practice as of next week. #DiscoverExtraordinary #ActForImpact

Prioritize and then Re-Prioritize. When you live abundantly there is always more to do than you can do. #prioritize #studyyourcalendar #reprioritize
