Eat Less More Often
“smaller nutritious meals can boost your metabolism ”
By eating small nutritious meals, you will increase your metabolism and keep yourself full throughout the entire day. It will also amp up your energy and keep your insulin levels constant.
Ideally, you should eat 5 to 6 times per day, with about 3 hours between each meal. Imagine yourself grazing versus hoarding. You want to graze on small amounts of foods several times instead of hoarding on large amounts of foods a few times a day. If you wait too long between meals, you will have the tendency to binge and consume far too many calories since you will be extremely hungry.
Have an excellent week.

YOUR MIND
Your Belief Can Make Anything Possible
Max Steingart
The only thing that stands between you and what you want from life, is the will to try it and the faith to believe that it's possible. In order to succeed, you must first believe you can.
The moment you carry the conviction of belief, in that moment your dream will become reality. The only true limit to your realization of tomorrow will be your doubts of today.
There are no real barriers to your success. You must simply overcome any doubts you have about your ability.
You can, if you think you can.
YOUR BODY
Burn Fat By Building Muscle
Strength training builds lean muscle mass. By adding muscle you will be adding the most potent fat burning tissue to your body. Muscle tissue is the most metabolically active tissue in your body, so make sure to build as much as possible.
Studies have estimated that for each pound of muscle you add to your body, you burn an additional 35 to 50 calories per day. So, an extra 10 pounds of muscle will burn approximately 350 to 500 calories per day, or an extra pound of fat every 7 to 10 days. This is without making any other changes! In another study, researchers found that regular weight training boosts basal metabolic rate by about 15%.

Think It Then Ink It
how journaling can change your life
"The blank page gives us the right to dream."
-- Baston Bachelard
Journaling takes us on adventures of self-discovery that explore two different directions:
- DEEPER into the realms of the subconscious where we can clean house of personal problems, pains, patterns, and reactions; and,
- HIGHER into the realms of our potential, where we can connect with intuition and higher guidance and uncover our essence and purpose.
"Life is a narrative that you have a hand in writing."
-- Henriette Anne Klauser
"I want you to get excited about who you are, what you are, what you have, and what can still be for you. I want to inspire you to see that you can go far beyond where you are right now."
-- Virginia Satir
