“We have to understand that the world can only be grasped by action, not by contemplation. The hand is more important than the eye… The hand is the cutting edge of the mind.”

~ Jacob Bronowski

Hi, Lynette again, your weight loss life coach. Really read the first sentence of this quote. It basically is saying that your goals (the world) can only be reached when you set aside thinking and DO.

How often have you said “I really would like to get in shape/lose weight/be healthier”? Hundreds? Thousands? Did those thoughts make you lose weight/get in shape/be healthier?

Nope.

It is the daily practice of action – one step, each and every day – that makes your goals a reality.

So, you know I’m gonna ask… what one step are you going to DO today? Now, go do that one thing!

Deep breathing is a great way to calm yourself and energize your body. A good deep breathing technique is to sit comfortably, breathe in for 5 counts, hold your breath for 5 counts, and breathe out for 5 counts.

Be sure to place your hands on your belly – if your belly isn’t rising with each inhale, you’re not breathing deep enough.

Do this for 1-2 minutes.
