How to find out what your “enough” is: First, save this for later! It’s so easy to get sucked into generalized wellness advice. Especially when there’s so much information available at our fingertips. Wherever we look someone is telling us that there’s this incredible 5 day program that will instantly get them the body of their dreams. Or heavily restrictive diet that will change their life as it did for some celebrity (that has probably never heard of it). At the height of my hormonal issues these trends were - HIIT Training, Keto, Intermittent fasting, restrictive diets, 5am classes and F45. While some of those things can bring results at first (though none of them did for me), they’re all high stress activities and in the long run tend to do the opposite of what we’re trying to achieve. Especially if you have any underlying health conditions hormonally or otherwise. So how can we decide what’s best for us? Here are some of the best tips I have: 1. Understand that your “best” doesn’t mean what you think it does - Doing your best doesn’t mean doing absolutely everything you can possibly do until you nearly drop dead. It means what can your positive output be before you become fatigued or stressed. This looks different every single day. 2. The best way to test this is to commit to showing up for 90minutes, even if you’re tired. If you are still feeling terrible after 90 minutes, that’s your best. If not, show up for another hour and continue adding 1 hour until you feel fatigue setting in, NOT after you’ve felt tired for hours. Your output will be considerably more if you work energized vs fatigued. 3. Learn your human design type - This was huge for me, it teaches us all about our energy and there’s so much information on how you best show up in the world. 4. Prioritize sleep and rest - It’s a no brainer but arguably the most important. Never choose a 5am workout class over sleep. Never cram another few hour deep into the night so you can feel like you’ve worked hard. Sleep is by far the most important factor in health and even work. Trust me. 5. Let go of guilt and comparison - Your baseline is your baseline, not someone elses.
