Why Smart, Busy Women Overeat

I LOVE acronyms..  I came across this scrolling through an email.  A fresh perspective if you will on recognizing why you and I tend to "go off" plan despite our best intentions.  ALL credit goes to Toomuchonherplate.com.  I hope it inspires you as much as it did me to learn about myself!

STWDM2 - Transforming Heavy to Light

Day 2 Message: “When you allow your ways to be light you go high.” ― Raphael Zernoff In today’s meditation, we explore how to transform the heaviness in our lives to our natural state of lightness. The heaviness of our burdens comes from our attachment to past pain and trauma, as well as anxiety and fear of the future. As we learn to live consciously in the present moment, we find we don’t have to do anything to let go of burdens of pain and fear – they let go of us. Our natural state of balance in life is lightness and ease. O:  Everything in nature happens with lightness and ease in the moment, no effort.  Grapes ripen on the vine, roses bloom, the sun shines even through the darkest clouds – effortlessly.  When we commit to the lightness and ease of the present moment, we experience endless renewal and boundless abundance.  This is our essential nature.  This energy is our light.  Welcome to Day 2, Transforming Heavy to Light.  When you wholehearted...

Just What is TABATA?

Simply put - a SCIENCE BASED, effective way to exercise your body in a short amount of time - and - no gym needed.  Sound to good to be true?  Not this time.  Here is the science behind it. What:   In 1996, Dr Izumi  Tabata and his team did research on two groups of athletes: one group trained at a moderate intensity level while the other group trained at a high intensity level. The moderate intensity group worked out five days a week for a total of six weeks; each workout lasted one hour. The second  group worked out four days a week for six weeks; each workout lasted four minutes and 20 seconds (with 10 seconds of rest in between each set). Results:   Group one had increased their aerobic system (cardiovascular), but showed little or no results for their anaerobic system (muscle). Group two (Tabata protocol) showed much more increase in their aerobic system than group one, and increased their anaerobic system by 28 percent.   In conclusion, ...
