Listen to your body. Is it time to eat?...is it time to stop eating?...Time to move?...Time for a (((hug)))
There are times when your body is telling you.....what to do. If & when you are exercising~If it really doesn't feel right. Quit. If you need a hug. Get one. Have a moment, it is ok, we all deserve them. The most important thing....BE KIND TO YOURSELF!!!!!! it is ok to have an off day. We all have them. The important thing is to get back up....brush yourself off...& GO! Tell yourself you are wonderful...you are special!!! YOU ARE... Let me tell you if no one else does.....YOU ARE WORTH IT!!!! I love you all....you make my day! Thank-you!

If Only Your Body Could Talk
An essential part of losing weight and keeping it off is learning how to listen to your body. We all wish it could just say what it wants. Although your body doesn't have an oral language, it does communicate. Certainly, you know when your body hurts because you feel pain. You know when it needs rest because you get the unmistakable cues of nodding off, yawns, and sleepiness. But are you able to clearly hear your body communicate when it is time for you to eat and when it is time to stop eating?

Infants know these signals well. So do animals that live in the wilderness. Most adult humans don't remember the language of hunger and satiation. Infants cry to signal that they need a feeding. Infants know how they are doing by how they feel. If they feel good, everything is fine in their world. If they don't feel good, if something hurts or irritates them, they let mama know right away. By observing an infant cry for food, you can tell that hunger is an actual discomfort. It is felt in the stomach. Learning to listen to your body is essential for getting back to your routine. If what you're doing doesn't feel right for any reason, give yourself permission to end your workout early...just don't forget a light cool down if needed.
