DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 25 – “Dedicated to the Practice”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 25 – “Dedicated to the Practice”

Today’s Body Connection: As you train the body-temple, focus on staying dedicated for the present moment you are in. Commitment is required, but for the moment. On your runs, stay dedicated for one breath and one stride at a time. During your strength training, commit to one single repetition at a time during the set. During yoga, devote yourself to the one pose you are experiencing. So do not worry about any exercise outside of the present. Your power comes from the NOW, not the future or the past. Be mind of where you are and what you are doing.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation requires dedication, but we must commit to only one breath at a time. Be dedicated to the practice just for today, one moment, and even one breath at a time. You can’t run before you crawl, and transformation is an endurance race, not a sprint. Dedication is being present and awake to the moment you are in. Then, before you know it, you have shifted your whole existence.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, be present to the moment you are in. Dedicate to the breath you are taking and have faith that you are in the midst of your transformation.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am a living dedication to my transformation. I surrender to God and allow the blessing to be my everyday way of life. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 23 – “Remembering”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 23 – “Remembering”

Today’s Body Connection: Every workout is a time to remember who and who’s you are. Our life is a dance of forgetting and remembering our power. The physical practice is always a tool for remembering, if we set the intention. When you do cardiovascular training, remember your capacity to breathe. When you lift weights, remind yourself of the never-ending strength that lives within your soul. When you take a Pilates class or train your core, remind yourself that a strong foundation is needed to build your life. And our yoga practice is a reminder to be more flexible in our lives. Our physical practice reminds us of the spiritual journey we have said yes to. It is all connected!

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation is the journey of remembering who and who’s you are. Today, remember that you are divine and fine. There is only one thing to change, your consciousness and that is everything.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, transform the way you see yourself; be still and remember. Mindfully move through your day with only empowering thoughts. Whenever you think of your body-temple, bless it with love. This might be a challenge at first but you can do it. Set the intention to remember to be kind and love to your self.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember to remember. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 21 – “Your Yes”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 21 – “Your Yes”

Today’s Body Connection: Yes is more than your consent; it is an agreement to activate greatness within your life. Look at your physical practice as an opportunity to release mediocrity and an invitation for you to live your greatest life. Every moment during your workout is a moment that God wants to show up as you. The only destiny is that the Universe is seeking is to express itself as you. Will you let it happen? Will you say yes?

Today’s Meditative Thought: Your yes is the gateway to transformation. The vibration of yes allows a shift to happen. Use yes to carry you through. Say yes to the transformation to your new self.

Today’s Action Plan: Yes, Yes, Yes…Today, use yes to empower your change, mind, body, and spirit. Write a journal entry of what it means to say yes to your expansion, and what it looks like.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I say yes, yes, yes. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 10 – “The Jumpstart”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 10 – “The Jumpstart”

Today’s Body Connection: The fitness “jumpstart” is that surge of energy you get before you start your practice. Truth be told, it is the up-leveling of your vibration, fueled with your intention. It is the moment you have agreed to get out of bed and exercise. It is the moment you choose an apple over a candy bar. It is that second you become aware that your transformation is about the inside and how you feel. Your “jumpstart” is the moment you say yes to allowing yourself to be whole and complete.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation can be empowered with your words, thoughts, and language. Use affirmations like, “I can,” “I will,” and “I am able,” to jumpstart your life. Our mental enthusiasm will fuel all our intentions.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, speak only words that up-level your transformation. Consciously move through your day with the awareness that your language coagulates into your existence. Be aware of each time you feel that surge of energy, the moment you know you have committed to your yes. Acknowledge your moments of awakening.

Affirmation: Just for this moment… just for this breath, I jumpstart my transformation with the power of Love. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 6 – “Surrender to Transformation”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 6 – “Surrender to Transformation”

Today’s Body Connection: So, the initial excitement is gone and you realize how hard it is and how much time is required to transform the body-temple. Your mind starts to play games, and you hit the “fitness fork in the road.” What do you do? You have two choices: give up or surrender to the transformation you said yes to. Remember, surrender is the opposite of giving up. Giving up says you have stopped trying and surrendering says you will do what it takes to transform. Surrendering takes a daily practice, and sometimes it might require a moment-to-moment re-commitment. But you can always return to your yes. Surrendering is a requirement for your transformation.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation can only come with surrendering. Integrate yourself into the divine. Infuse your being with God. Operate from the knowing that you are the life of the universe with a grand plan. Give yourself over to the will of God and allow its power to work as you.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, open up all accesses of your life to God and be the miracle. When you come upon the fitness fork in the road, stop and be still and surrender. Your transformation is unfolding right now; embrace it and stay the course. Journal about what it is like to surrender to your journey. Stay close to the practice.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I give my life over to divine transformation. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 2 – “Download Directions”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 2 – “Download Directions”

Today’s Body Connection: Many of my Aha moments have been downloaded during a workout. There have been times during a run when I have received great insight about my life. The activity of movement creates a clear mind for thoughts to be received and processed. The physical practice can be a conduit for new ideas to flow and for contemplation to take place. During your strength-training session or your Yoga time, ask a question that you have been pondering for a while. Or you can simply ask, “What insights about me do I need to learn today?” Trust that all things are connected and can lead to a deeper awareness of self if we are open and willing.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Prepare yourself for insight and revelations to happen. The practice of prayer, meditation, and sacred study is the key for downloading direction from the divine. It is the Aha moments that give us the opportunity to shift and transform our lives. Continue to be present and awake and ask God for the insights you need to change your life.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, look for divine guidance for transformation. Contemplate your next steps, and expect to get the answer you are seeking.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment… just for this breath, I download my divine direction for transformation and I live my life’s purpose. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 29 – “Our Peaceful State”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 29 – “Our Peaceful State”

Today’s Body Connection: Remember, when the body feels good, we are free to experience a peaceful state of mind. The mind, body, and spirit are connected as one; therefore one affects the other. Whenever we feel the challenges of our body, our minds can work to compensate for or to overcome adversity. When we feel uneasy, it’s time to meditate. Let the stillness overtake the pain, allowing peace to be your state of being.

Today’s Meditative Thought: We are meant to coexist with each other and share love. Our peaceful state is a harmonious vibration that lives within us all. Remember, when you are in conflict with your loved ones, neighbors, or friends, you are really in conflict with yourself. It is time to remind yourself that the solution is always Love; self-love. Until we find our personal peaceful state of being, how can we find peace with anyone else?

Today’s Action Plan: Today, cultivate peace within yourself. Take the time to meditate on the word “peace” and what qualities come to mind.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember that the answer is always “Love.” Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 25 – “Free Yourself”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 25 – “Free Yourself”

Today’s Body Connection: How many times have you talked yourself out of a training session simply by saying, “I can’t.” If you say you can’t do something, you are right. The truth is, you can if you are willing. Each workout begins with the simple belief that it is ‘accomplishable.’ When you begin to trust yourself to cut calories, you will begin to eat mindfully. When you free yourself from the “I can’t” attitude, everything is possible. Remember, your positive attitude will make every workout enjoyable.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Allow old habits to be put to death. In yoga, the last pose is the “corpse pose.” We die in the practice because it is finished; time to let it go. What are you holding on to that is dying a long, slow death? Free yourself, then raise up a new creation, with a new purpose. Remember, the power is within you. You can free yourself by letting go of the people, places, things, thoughts, and habits that no longer serve you.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember that which is dying, is dying for a reason: it no longer serves you. Time to identify what you need to let go. Start with the body-temple. If your language and thoughts are not kind and loving, it is time to release them.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember to free myself with Love. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 24 – “The Right Place”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 24 – “The Right Place”

Today’s Body Connection: Any place is the right place to work out. You don’t need a gym to participate in a physical practice. Don’t allow your preconceived ideas of how workouts should be to stop your participation. What we see on the TV or in videos are only 10% of the choices for training the body. Healthy living, fitness, and wellness can be done anywhere. Commit to doing something every day for ten to 20 minutes and your life will expand. Dedicate at least one meal a day, if not all three, for healthy and mindful eating. Set the intention to make water your No. 1 source for quenching your thirst. Expand your options by increasing your awareness; anywhere and everywhere is the right place for health and fitness.

Today’s Meditative Thought: The scripture says, “Take off your shoes; you are standing on Holy ground.” The place you stand is sacred, not because it is designated as such, but because you bring the sacred with you; you only need to be aware of it. Everywhere you are God is in the mix. Everywhere you go you bring the Divine. Right this very moment claim the place you sit, stand, or lie as Holy ground. You are the light; therefore you are always in the right place.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember you are in the right place, space, and time for transformation; you only need to allow it to happen. When you find yourself in the way, trying to make something happen, step back, take a breath, and turn it over.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember that I am in the right place, right now. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 18 – “Release the Fight”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 18 – “Release the Fight”

Today’s Body Connection: When we remember to let go of our impulse to resist change, we become aware of our wholeness and transformation becomes easy. We hold on to our old stories of “there is not enough time to work out“ or “my family is big-boned so I am destined to be fat.” The truth is that we can transcend any of our old perceptions about our body-temples. We have the ability to transform our lives and live a healthy lifestyle. There is a deep desire within our souls to expand and be the divine expression that we are. Release the fight and surrender to an everyday practice of healthy living.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Mother Teresa would never go to an anti-war rally because she stood for peace. She said, “I was once asked why I don’t participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I’ll be there.” This makes perfect sense to me. Whatever we fight against will persist in our life. If our mind is focused on the things we don’t want, we will get more of what we don’t want. Have you ever heard the saying, “Where your attention goes, energy will flow”? Keep your mind steadfast on your intentions and goals. It’s time to free your mind from the idea that you must fight for anything. Transformation is about becoming the vision, not fighting it.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, remember the key to peace is releasing the fight. Whenever you become aware that you are resisting God, take a breath and surrender. Let go and fall into the arms of God. Just say yes.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I release the fight and embrace God. Amen
