Courage

8/24/2014

It takes great courage to voice an unpopular opinion. Even if we have succeeded with our goals and are passionate about sharing those blessings with others, we may be rejected or ignored.

That is ok, really. Every human must process things in their own unique way, and go on their personal journey. We cannot speed up understanding. We cannot speed up the understanding of our own journey or the journeys of others. Sometimes the best we can hope for is that they acknowledge we even have an opinion!

Many great thinkers and doers in our history started out as outcasts in society. The world was believed to be flat at one time, remember?

What do you have the courage to speak up about that may be against the norm? My whole wellness journey has had people laughing at me, contradicting my methods, worried for my quick weight loss, saying I was flat out crazy! Then there's the folks who try and sabotage my efforts daily. I use these conversations as fuel to get my mind right, and to spur me on toward more research in the scientific nutrition community.

I want to hear from you!

RESOLUTIONS vs PROMISES

8/4/2014

0 Comments

We all have made resolutions over the years, for New Year's Eve or for the beginning of a new chapter in our lives. What usually happens is that we hold tight to our dreams and focus for a little while, but then life gets in the way. We slip and err, forget, or just don't care anymore because we are too stressed out, too busy, too whatever.

This past year I have tried a promise to myself rather than a resolution. the word promise means to me that I value myself so much that I will keep my word, just as if I made a promise to another person that I care about. My experience shows me that I can keep my promise without feeling like a failure. I can err and still get back up and continue on my path without self degradation.

Make a list of some new action you would like to do, some old habits you would like to forget about. Rather than say, "I'm going to give up cupcakes forever," think about promising to make a swap out for a week or a month. "I promise to swap out cupcakes with home made coconut flour cupcakes with a full-fat, creamy butter icing." If out and about when the craving hits you, promise to hit a gluten free-sugar free bakery or store. Remember the promise is to yourself. You do not have to announce it to others unless you want their help in keeping on track.

The promises are not for eating and exercising only. The promises are for whatever you desire deeply that will enhance your experience in this lifetime.

I promised to try new fitness activities this summer. I did bungee jumping on a trampoline and did the trampoline fitness jumping for an hour at the House of Air a few times. When I get some money saved I am intent on joining cross fit. It is way out of my budget right now. But, I do have a plan! That is key to any promise made to oneself.

What promise do you want to make to yourself? How will you make that happen? Let's start a conversation!

Strangers Are Not Strange

STRANGERS ARE NOT STRANGE!!

If we didn't talk to strangers, we wouldn't meet new deeply important friends. If we didn't talk to strangers, we wouldn't find our lovers and life mates. If we didn't talk to strangers, the importance of sharing thoughts and ideas and passions would be stifled.
Talk to a stranger today, with love in your heart. Let go of fear.

Self Love Is Not Selfish

SELF LOVE IS NOT SELFISH

Take a little moment to breathe during the daily rush. Inhale the glorious smells, exhale self hatred and doubt.

Love yourself a bit more. You deserve everything in abundance.

When we take time for our desires, regardless of what others think, it is a self loving moment. If we feel no resentment or guilt when we take time for ourselves, we have the opportunity to grow as a human spirit.
This includes our food choices. When I choose raw butter, or raw cashew butter over Skippy and margarine, I am taking care of my body that my spirit is inhabiting while here on earth. When I choose leafy greens and fresh air with movement and laughter included, rather than stuck in a cubby hole inside (hunched over), my creative ideas may flow freely. Then I have abundant energy!

Conscious cheating is called a treat. Unconscious cheating is self sabotage. Know the difference, acknowledge it, and move forward. Stop the negative self dialogue. We eliminated them with the NEGATIVE THOUGHT POT last week, remember?

This health and wellness thing is a lifelong journey. It will never leave you bored!!! LOLOL

Superior Self's Fast Start Guide to Wellness From Within

4/21/2014

You are welcome here! Some folks are not ready to make a drastic change all at once, so I have developed slower, smaller shifts in the dietary behavior that one makes with 100% commitment.

The plan for you is week by week. If this is still too fast, then change week 1 to month one, etc. Add the next week's shift to the one already in place. By the end of the program, you will feel great and look great, so that you may have more energy to do more and serve humanity more. It really is a win-win situation.

I suggest:

Week 1, increase water to a gallon a day.
Week 2, give up all wheat products and still drink a gallon of water a day. Week 3, give up all grains and still drink a gallon of water a day.
Week 4, reduce fruits to 1-2 times a day, always keeping previous changes.
Week 5, reduce fruits to 1-2 servings a week.
Week 6, change your oils to only healthy fats I mentioned in Superior Self with KJ Landis posts.
Week 7, no more added sugar, in any form: no honey or agave or date sugar, etc. Buy Lakanto or XYLA on amazon or Whole Foods.
Week 8, purchase raw dairy and pastured eggs if you regularly consume them.
Week 9, give up beans and legumes.
Week 10, write to me and share your experience! I know you can do this.

In all of the weeks (or months), pay particular attention to how you feel rather than how you look. Sometimes flu and cold symptoms, headaches, and general fatigue may plague you. You may suffer acne or a rash for a little while. These are symptoms of the body detoxifying as it gets used to the cleaner fuel you are providing it with. Fear not, and keep moving forward with the process. Moving toward superior health can spur us on to our true superior self. Just think about how clear, attentive, helpful, and generous we can be to others we love when we have taken care of our own essential biochemical needs.

Practice, practice, practice. Eventually your eating choices and preparation of meals will shift to a healthier format and it will become easier. For me, it has not yet become entirely easy. It requires becoming present and conscious at each meal. remember that you do not have to feel alone. Surround yourself with like minded individuals. Seek out thought provoking materials to stimulate your journey and spark continued interest in your superior self.

Complaining VS Explaining

COMPLAINING VS EXPLAINING

I woke up to an inspiration from my husband. He said,
"I'm not complaining, I'm explaining."
Wow. I needed to go a little deeper. People will roll their eyes at you if you just complain. They will not listen, but if you say, "Hey, I want to explain this completely to you..."
You may have the wall break down and truly understand what the message is.

We have such short attention spans these days because of our fast world of electronics, fast foods, and information overload. It is truly difficult to slow down anything and anyone, EVER. If you give yourself the opportunity to breathe a moment, then you can give the other person the opportunity to do the same. The explanation may be a truth telling moment for both of you. How I love those A-HAAA moments! That is what I call the divine spark intervening. I don't care when or where it comes from...I just want to invite it in!

So, today, roll your eyes a little less, and give everybody a real chance to explain themselves.
Blessings,

The Try VS The Do

The TRY versus the DO

Last night my sweet husband asked me to try to take the marble from the palm of his hand. I reached over and quick as a flash he closed his fist. We did this a few times . I kept saying, "I'm trying!"

Exactly. Are you trying or are you doing? Trying led to more trying. Doing may have led me to completing the task. When I hear people (including myself) say they are trying to ________,
I am reminded of the game my husband and I played. The thoughts and words we have are so powerful that we may talk ourselves into success...or not. The gift is that we have the free will to choose every time. Change our language, change our mind, change our outcome. This works with our food choices, our willpower, our life goals, our wellness, our never ending to-do lists in our busy lives. I invite you to DO YOU.

Do you TRY or DO?

Blessings,
KJ Landis
