Via   Lifescape Solutions     Why Everyone Should be Meditating First Thing in the Morning Guest Post By: Danielle Hegedus Daily meditation provides you with the opportunity to quiet your mind amidst the constant demands of life. It allows you to have more focus and control over your emotions, making you less prone to depression and anxiety.  According to Time Magazine , we need to be taking meditation more seriously, as it pertains to our overall well-being. “The practice of mindful meditation can offer real help for patients with depression, anxiety, and pain. 

Using the Power of the Art of Visualizing: to Manifest Your Dreams “Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so you shall become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.” –James Allen It’s empowering to know that we can literally alter our lives  and physiques  by  visualizing our desires often.  I've used the Art of Visualizing for years, it always works in helping me achieve my goals and dreams.  Your mind is the key that unlocks the door to success or failure. What you believe about yourself is a self-prophesy.  Think about a time when you just knew you could do something that might have seemed nearly impossible to someone else. As you believed in your ability to achieve, you moved forward diligently to accomplish your task at hand.

How to Sculpt Sexy Legs and a Tight Tush Doing lower body training is tough but highly worth every bit of energy used to blast through a tough lower body workout. To get lean legs and behind takes motivation, dedication and determination to achieve the results you desire.  Who wants to jiggle in their swimsuit as they walk along the beach or pool, I sure don’t! For starters, plan on training Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays to get your legs and glutes in shape faster, you can alternate lower body training days each new week as well if you'd like.  Working legs take a lot of energy to push through a good, hard workout, the energy used is that of your brown fat. When you dig deep for added strength while doing that last rep, your body will go for deep stored fat much like it does with doing HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training). Doing so burns more calories during and after you train.

Is Your Breakfast Sabotaging Your Diet? Are you eating a breakfast of champions each morning? Many of my clients begin their coaching thinking they're healthy eaters, and for the most part they are. However, when I ask what their typical breakfast consist of, it’s common to hear, “I have oatmeal, orange juice, and toast for breakfast.” Little do they know that eating a high carbohydrate breakfast with little to no fat or protein actually is not a healthy breakfast—it’s a simple carb loaded breakfast, which spikes insulin and causes weight gain. They're correct that each food group is healthy, but coupled together without protein isn't as healthy as they may think.  

 5 Tips to Get  Back on Track with Your Fitness Goals "Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it."  ~Lou Holtz Getting back on track with your fitness and weight loss goals after a festive holiday of overeating with family and friends can be overwhelming. If you tend to eat too much, no worries, you can regroup and shed any extra water weight gained in just a few days. Typically at social gatherings, there are plenty of high-calorie foods and desserts to tempt and tantalize your taste buds. Often self-discipline seems to go out the window the moment you step through the door.

Almost everyone has heard the saying, “Ask, and it is given.” Well, to those who do not understand the principle of the meaning, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. To “ask and receive” is an intentional request that resonates with the body, mind and spirit as a whole.  To ask is to move forward in faith, believing that by the grace of God, the endless powers of the universe will orchestrate that which is needed to fulfill what you ask for. However, it takes more than simply asking, you must have hope and faith first, believing that you will receive that which you ask for. As found in Matthew 7 : 7 & 8 -  7 “Ask and it shall be given you: seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For everyone that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.” That implies to all areas of your life, in addition to connecting with God and Christ. Isn’t it a profound thought to contemplate that anything you ask for

         Yummy Stovetop Popcorn:  Made with Coconut Oil The other day I was chatting with my sister while visiting with her in her home, the topic of popcorn came up and she shared with me how she makes her popcorn on the stove, in a pan. I’ve always made air popped popcorn and was intrigued with making delicious popcorn on the stove. She said it tastes a lot like movie popcorn. I could hardly wait to try it! When eating a low carb diet, it’s good to carb load at least once a week to restore the glycogen stores in muscles to create fuller, leaner, stronger muscles when working out. So, my go-to carbohydrate treat is popcorn. (I have a protein drink before I have carbs to help keep my blood sugar balanced.) I steer clear of unhealthy microwaved popcorn and opt for healthy air-popped popcorn.

12 Stress-Free Living Tips Do you want to be happier and have more control over your life? If so, then make it a point to release stress regularly. We often have stress without even realizing it, but your body does. When you feel worried and strained your body is yelling with an ‘energy megaphone’ that you’re off course of living a joyful life, as you were created to do. Stress plays havoc with the body in a myriad of ways. Ill health, diseases, contention, mental fatigue, adrenal fatigue, weight gain, sleep disorders, confusion, anxiety, fear, and unhappiness are some of the results. Luckily, when you feel stressed, you can release that stress and get back in synch with your happy self.  

Delicious Protein Hot Cocoa Recipe One of my favorite snacks on cold days is to drink a delicious cup of whey protein hot chocolate, yep, your read it correctly--whey protein! I'm all about enjoying delicious treats that have health benefits to keep my physique lean and at my ideal body weight—drinking whey protein hot chocolate does just that! Whey protein is a staple in my diet; many people underestimate the importance of protein. Protein has a long list of health benefits, of which of which are: aids in fat loss and preserves muscle, increases muscle growth, increases metabolism, reduces hunger, reduces stress, and improves the immune system. Next time you crave a delicious cup of hot cocoa, ditch the high-calorie sugar recipes and instant hot chocolate packets and make my yummy recipe instead.

Paleo Low Carb Protein Spiced Pumpkin Cookies I absolutely LOVE this time of year! I relish the smell of fall in the air and joy of baking delicious fall desserts for my family.  I enjoy baking traditional recipes for my family, however, I don't eat sugar nor do I eat wheat or high carb flours.  Sugar and high carbs only cause weight gain and inflammation in the body, which is why I eat a clean diet free of trans fats, processed foods, sugars and high carbs.  Protein is also a high priority in my diet, I incorporate protein into my recipes when fitting. I use whey protein isolate in all my baked recipes.  And for good reason, protein keeps blood sugar level and aids in maintaining muscle mass, which is a must for me to keep my lean physique. So needless to say, I make up a lot of low carb recipes to suite my diet and to continue to have fun baking for my family and friends. 

6 Tips to Enjoy Eating Holiday Treats  Without Guilt Happy Halloween! I absolutely love the holidays, including Halloween! I love the smell of autumn, the high energy in the air, and the joy that is expressed when looking into children’s eyes who is eager for the partying to begin. Unfortunately, many people painfully regret overeating or having candy on Halloween, which does NOT serve them. Being negative only lowers the body’s vibration, thus causing weight gain, water retention and indigestion.
