T: 3 Healthy Living Tips
☀️ Looking for behavior positive reinforcement? Create an ‘every time I wanted to *insert destructive behavior* but DIDN’T’ jar!! Like THIS
☀️Whenever you’re feeling anxious or stressed about food or your body, try box breathing! Inhale for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 4, hold for 4 – repeating until calm!
☀️Instead of: I need to stop eating chips. > Let’s try: how can I add to these chips to make them more filling and satisfying? Example:
- Can I add carrots and hummus with the chips?
- Can I add the chips as a side to a sandwich?
B: 2 Book Recommendations (one self-improvement and one fun)
📚For Self Improvement (on Self Sabotage): The Mountain Is You by Brianna Wiest
THIS BOOK. Thissss book. Let me just leave this quote from the book, and I think you will understand… “Sometimes, you have to figure out who you aren’t to realize who you are. Sometimes, you have to understand what a good relationship isn’t to understand what it is. Sometimes, you have to walk alone to understand the value of your inner circle, be rejected to appreciate acceptance, and get a little lost to understand what path is yours. Sometimes, you have to identify everything you don't want before you can claim everything you do.” I mean 🤯 If you have ever struggled with self-sabotage, this is a must!
📚For Fun (Thriller) Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell
Okay, is it weird to say I enjoyed this book because it is disturbing? Because *trigger warning* it's disturbing, but wowwww it's a page-turner. I could not put it down! Quick Synopsis: Ellie Mack goes missing one day after school. Years after the disappearance, Ellie's mother meets a man whose daughter resembles Ellie. Suddenly, more things are coming up regarding Ellie's disappearance, and Ellie's mother is determined to figure out what happened to her ten years later.
