    Have you ever noticed that you can't shake off certain thoughts or ideas, no matter how hard you try? You're not alone. Overthinking is a common struggle many of us face. Join me as I open up about my personal journey with overthinking and how it has affected various aspects of my life. I'll walk you through the fascinating research that helps us understand why overthinking is such a hard habit to break. From emotional attachment to lack of self-awareness, there are numerous reasons why we get caught in the web of overthinking. 

    As we move forward, I'm going to equip you with five powerful techniques to tackle overthinking head-on. We'll start by learning to challenge negative thoughts and replace them with positive, realistic perspectives. I'll share practical strategies that have personally helped me in my journey and guide you on how you can apply these tools in your life. We'll also touch on the importance of mindfulness and boundary-setting as we work to replace overthinking with healthier thought patterns. 

    In our final segment, we'll discuss the importance of self-compassion in overcoming overthinking. I'll share tangible examples of how to challenge irrational thoughts and celebrate your past successes. We'll also touch on the negative impacts of overthinking and why breaking this habit is crucial for seizing opportunities and fostering healthier relationships. Lastly, we'll explore the power of social media for community building and reaching out to help others. Let's embark on this journey together and reclaim the power of our thoughts.

    71: 4 Strategies for a Healthy Lifestyle with Susan Neal

    It's January. It seems everyone makes New Year's Resolutions that include trying a new diet, exercising more, and quitting a bad habit. By far, people resolve to get healthier.

    64% of people who make New Year's resolutions fail after just one month. Why? They set unrealistic goals and didn't keep track of their progress.

    On today's episode, Susan Neal joins us again to share four strategies for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. She's clear that these strategies aren't about a diet. They are lifestyle changes that will be maintained for the rest of your life.

    Maybe you're not interested if that's the length of the commitment you must make. Hold on, please. Susan doesn't just share four strategies; she also shares the benefits of consistently maintaining each strategy. An unexpected bonus for you is that Susan explains how our bodies react to sugar and gluten. If her explanations don't convince you to consider your sugar and gluten intake, I don't know what will!

    Instead of making New Year's Resolutions that are unrealistic and you forget to keep track of your progress, follow Susan's healthy lifestyle strategies and experience tangible outcomes in your weight, energy level, happiness, and desire to pursue your dreams.

    Learn How to Manage Yourself, Not Your Time with Nan Russell

    Learn How to Manage Yourself, Not Your Time with Nan Russell
    Conventional wisdom says: to succeed, you must work long hours. In fact, our brain needs regular breaks to function at its best. Recently a friend asked me, “What’s the one thing you’ve done this year to create more energy?” My answer surprised me: “I allow myself to stop working when I hit an energy wall.” I recognize my thoughts now, like, “I’m tired, but I want to cross this off my list.” Yes, I could push through my low energy and get a second wind. In the morning, I could ignore the fact that I'm tired, down my coffee and convince myself I'm fine. There is a price to pay, however, and it’s a high one. We can do this every now and then but eventually we deplete our energy. A much more effective strategy is to remind ourselves that almost everything can wait. These days I ask myself: “What will happen if this doesn’t get done today?” The answer is almost always “nothing.” Please join us Thursday to Learn How to Manage Yourself, Not Your Time.
