Shortcuts Only Give Short Results

by

dave_061--1It would be a fantastic life if all the shortcuts we heard about actually worked. In reality very few ever give the results they promote, and so it goes with the health and wellness industry.

Yes, sadly, the health & fitness industry has a tendency to take advantage of quick fixes. Take this pill, follow this diet, do this workout, and all will be well, you won’t even have to break a sweat.

I’m sorry folks, but the body doesn’t work that way, not when it comes to lasting, long- term health. The body is designed to heal itself when given the basics of health and wellness, and there is no cheating it.

The way to health and wellness may not be wrapped up in some high intensity, glamorous, infomercial with hot bodies showing their results, but it works, it works every time, and it is the way our body’s are designed.

Tried and true, the body responds well with proper nutrition, quality sleep, hydration, quality breathing, exercise, and a proper mindset.

A majority of health issues can be resolved when the body is given the time and basic inputs to heal itself. This can’t be done with pills or quick fixes.

Most people turn to quick fixes out of confusion and despair. They feel they have nowhere else to turn. They feel they’ve tried everything. They are filled with frustration and doubt. When they hear of products or services that will give the results they desire, they fall prey to the quick fix.

Some of these shortcuts, or quick fixes are fat burners, thermogenetics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatories, diuretics, antacids, anti-histamines, and cholesterol lowering drugs, high blood pressure meds,  antidepressants, and the list goes on.

Please understand I believe there is a time and place for the ethical use of some of these drugs under the supervision of a doctor. However, most are over used because we would rather not have to take a long-term approach to healing our bodies. In most cases, many of us feel it is easier to take a pill than put in the effort to clean up our eating, drink more water, start an exercise program, get quality sleep, breathe deep, and condition our minds.

We live in a world that expects instant gratification. We feel we shouldn’t have to work for, or put forth any energy, or time for the results we desire as long as we can pay someone else to do it for us.

Health and wellness comes as a result of a lifestyle, a lifestyle that follows the components of health and wellness. There are no shortcuts.

Short cuts have a way of catching up to us. They never solve the issue, they just put it off.

Don’t fall prey to short cuts. Live a life of health and wellness. If you don’t know what that means then reach out and ask. Take the time to know. I am here to help you on this journey,

I wish for you Vibrant Health!

The Best Way Is The Integrated Way

by

Fotolia_38572203_Subscription_Monthly_M-1What does it take to achieve the health and fitness you desire? Does it take proper nutrition? How about exercising? Should we be looking at our lifestyle factors? Finally do we need to consider our overall belief system?

In a word Yes!

As a holistic health practitioner all of the above are taken into consideration when working with a client to improve their health and fitness.

Many folks make the common mistake of thinking that eating better or exercising is the fastest or only way to getting healthy and fit. However there is so much more to our health and fitness than this.

First off it is important to realize that just because someone is fit doesn’t mean they are healthy. There are plenty of fit people out there with chronic health issues.

As I have mentioned before, health and fitness is a lifestyle. For health and fitness to be a lifestyle it means integrating all factors for creating a healthy spirit, mind, and body into your daily life.

An integrated approach will create a deeper connection with your spirit, a true awareness to condition your mind and create the life you desire, and conditioning your body to radiate vibrant energy and wellness.

Is it hard to integrate these steps into your life? No actually it is not. It really comes down to you choosing to create this new life of health and wellness.

Now, it will be different from the way you have been conducting your life, but well worth the effort. We are meant to be healthy. Our bodies are designed to be healthy!

They have the innate ability to heal. We just have to get out of our own way and stop sabotaging the body’s efforts.

So I have a question for you. Is what you are doing working for you? Are you creating the health and fitness you have always desired? Do you have vibrant energy? Do you have the body you desire?

The most challenging situation to be in is feeling stuck and not knowing what to do or where to turn for help.

Creating health and fitness does not have to be hard. I know they certainly seem to make it look hard when you see thousands of diet and exercise books all claiming to be the best.

Once you know the 6 foundational principles to health and wellness all the rest falls into place.

I have spoken of them many times and will continue to do so. They are your Thoughts, Breath, Hydration, Nutrition, Exercise, and Sleep.

Each one is a key component to giving the body what it needs to heal and grow.

I have videos on Facebook and our website that will give you plenty of details on each,

If you really want to learn fast, I have just started an online course this week that you can still get into. You can do it at your own pace, and I am here to answer all of your questions via Skype or email.

It All Starts With You

by

Fotolia_43823620_Subscription_Monthly_MMake the committed decision to embrace your full potential and change your karma. Those are three big steps that support each other so you can become the person you have always dreamed of.

All this time you have had the power to create the health and fitness you have always desired. Yet this power has been misdirected because you were not aware of your potential and how to use it.

Making a committed decision is the first place to start in any journey. It is the committed decision to create health and fitness in your life even when times get challenging. A committed decision holds you firm and gives you strength and persistence. There can be no more excuses once a committed decision has been made.

Once you have made the committed decision to create health and fitness in you life it is time that you wake up and embrace your full potential to be amazing.

Most of us never even scratch the surface of what we are capable of. We all have an incredible depth of potential just waiting to be discovered.

The most certain way of discovering your potential is putting yourself in a position where you have to succeed. That is where your committed decision comes in to play.

Once you have made a committed decision there is no turning back, and so your mind will begin to access the depths of your higher-self to discover what has been latent till now.

Your potential is always there waiting to be called upon. The point is very seldom do we ever put ourselves in a position in which it needs to be called upon.

Living at your full potential means growth under demanding circumstances. It is only during times of demanding circumstances that we learn to access a deeper level of creativity.

To get there you must be willing to make the committed decision and see it through. Which means you have to stop believing you can’t and start believing you can, no matter how demanding the circumstances. You must dig deep, let go of fear, and live big. No one else can do it for you.

Once you begin to do this you will begin to change your karma.

Karma isn’t something set that can’t be changed. Karma is cause and effect.

If you have been living a life you don’t like, it is because subconsciously it is who you believe yourself to be. You can change your karma by changing who you believe yourself to be.

Make the committed decision to embrace your full potential and decide who it is you want to be, and then begin to believe yourself to be just that.

If you have been dealing with health issues, or wanting to lose weight, or get stronger, then you must begin to see yourself as healthy, lean, stronger person.

Let go of the past, and start creating your future. Do more to be more as they say.

Most importantly take responsibility for your health and fitness, and make the committed decision to create the life you desire.

I would love to help you on your journey of health and wellness.

I wish for all of you Vibrant Health!

Risking Your Health and Wellness

by

fotolia_293572_Subscription_L

The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it. – Michelangelo

This quote by Michelangelo gets right to the root of why most folks never accomplish what they dream of creating in their health and wellness and their life.

We are afraid to risk, and so our aim in life is to just get by. We allow our fear of taking risk to stop us from trying to make a better life.

When we think of risk it is usually in the form of taking some action and the possibilities of not succeeding.

For you to achieve your desires you must take risk. Risk allows for growth. For growth to happen there will always be resistance in the process.

A person who never risks and plays it safe is actually holding themselves back from being more, having more, and experiencing more.

Think of starting a business, or buying a house or investing money, or starting / ending a relationship or starting a health and fitness program to get healthy. Each comes with the risk of not succeeding and the possibility of ending up right back where you started.

When we think deeply on the subject of risk we can take each one of those negative possibilities of loss and ask what is at risk if we do not take the actions to be successful in those endeavors. What are we risking then?

That is in my opinion is the way to look at a situation. It is the possibilities of what you will never create if you do not risk.

There are two sides to every coin. In fact my mentor Paul Chek says there are three sides, the positive, the negative and the edge of the coin, which states the potential to create the positive.

You should never be afraid of risk. Risk doesn’t mean to haphazardly jump into something, but instead using a calculated thought out process. You should get excited in knowing that if there is risk there is also gain. We should always and only focus on the gain.

In my view there is little to no risk in beginning a health and wellness lifestyle. When done sensibly you can only improve your state of health and wellness. The real risk comes if you don’t give yourself the gift of health and wellness. By doing nothing you will progressively move towards dysfunction illness and disease.

When thinking about creating health and wellness we should also apply these questions.

  • What are you risking by not taking care of your health and wellness?
  • What are you risking by creating a healthy lifestyle.

You’ll see by your answers that the risks of not taking care of your health and wellness is far greater than risks of creating a healthy lifestyle.

I would love to help you create happiness, health and wellness in your life.

I wish for you a vibrant life!  David E. Fresilli
