The Ultimate Journey of Self-Care

This month in all our groups we will be doing a ‘Spring Training’ theme.One of the biggest pieces to a successful regimen for yourself is working some kind of activity plan. Research continues to show and demonstrate that activity is a KEY to having a metabolism that works for you–that includes feeling good, having energy you can sustain and a positive mindset.And the most important part of your regimen is that you decide how it looks, and when you can do it.Emma Jory is an international online health and fitness coach and operates an online pilates and barre studio. She focuses on offering her clients manageable activity sessions that work without draining your day of time you don’t have. She’s been featured in publications such as Parenthood, Pilates Style Magazine and has been featured in several international summits and events.In this episode, we chat about working activity in, starting with basics and continuing them and setting yourself up to be successful–your way.The Ultimate Journey of Self care is proud to be sponsored by BUOY Hydration - The newest in ‘squeezable’ hydration products!Use our coupon code CUFit20 for a 20% discount at justaddbuoy.com GUEST LINKS:Emma’s online studio: https://epilatesonline.com/5-day-barre-challenge-free/PODCAST WEBSITE & SM LINKS:Check out our retreats! www.cufitnessretreats.comWebsite: www.cufitness.comBecome a supporter: https://cufitness.com/the-ultimate-journey-of-self-care-podcast-2/If you are a health/fitness/wellness entrepreneur, or a coach --join our NEW group for coaches and entrepreneurs:   INNOVATE and GROW for Fitness, Health, Wellness and Coaching Entrepreneurs | FacebookFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/alison.h.katschkowsky?ref=bookmarksJoin my Facebook Community:  LIving your Ultimate Life through Fitness and Self Care: https://www.facebook.com/groups/743439322342659/Instagram:  @fitstylegalTwitter:  @ahkatsThe Ultimate Journey of Self-Care Podcast - CU FitnessLeave a REVIEW on Podchaser: Podchaser – Podcast Reviews, Credits, Playlists, & More

Building systems around how we eat, shop and take care of ourselves takes planning–just like systems for our work and running our household.

We can often feel like we are constantly starting from scratch.From our workouts, to activity, to how we practice self care–some weeks or months it can feel like we are literally in the same place.Imagine being caught in a downward cycle of anxiety, depression and adopting behaviors that simply ‘mask’ how we are truly feeling.  We can often resort to behaviors that simply ‘fill the void’ when we want to make progress–only we find out we are stuck in on a perpetual hamster wheel.Adam Hill, an international triathlete and competitor, struggled with anxiety and depression for years and even used alcohol to help him cope.Then he decided to simply work on his thought process around creating lasting change and embraced being a ‘continuous beginner’.Can you embrace being a ‘continuous beginner’ and student of your method of self care so that you are always learning? You can.  And you can become your own ‘Final Finisher’.Listen in to my chat with Adam as we talk about his journey, how our own thoughts can get in our way of change, and how every day we can frame our challenges as learning experiences.The Ultimate Journey of Self care is proud to be sponsored by BUOY Hydration - The newest in ‘squeezable’ hydration products!Use our coupon code CUFit20 for a 20% discount at justaddbuoy.com GUEST LINKS:AdamHillTri.comRESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE:Order Adam's book - Shifting GearsPODCAST WEBSITE & SM LINKS:Check out our retreats! www.cufitnessretreats.comWebsite: www.cufitness.comBecome a supporter: https://cufitness.com/the-ultimate-journey-of-self-care-podcast-2/If you are a health/fitness/wellness entrepreneur, or a coach --join our NEW group for coaches and entrepreneurs:   INNOVATE and GROW for Fitness, Health, Wellness and Coaching Entrepreneurs | FacebookFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/alison.h.katschkowsky?ref=bookmarksJoin my Facebook Community:  LIving your Ultimate Life through Fitness and Self Care: https://www.facebook.com/groups/743439322342659/Instagram:  @fitstylegalTwitter:  @ahkatsThe Ultimate Journey of Self-Care Podcast - CU FitnessLeave a REVIEW on Podchaser: Podchaser – Podcast Reviews, Credits, Playlists, & More

The goal of all of our self care should be to BALANCE our energy.What do I mean by that?Setting goals and going after them involves a great deal of HUSTLE.  And that usually means we are using ‘masculine energy’. When we constantly in forward ‘go’ mode–we employ a fast paced, and an energy source that isn’t sustainable without some balancing factors. By contrast, using feminine energy creates more balance–so we stay focused, but we don’t spread ourselves too thin.Listen in to my chat with Nicole Mattheison–one of our loyal listeners and an Ayurvedic Holistic health advisor.  We chat about how we stay in a constant state of push and pull day to day and why so many start on new goals and find they have to stop before they see real progress.Check out ‘Plans for Balancing Energies’, and leave us a review!GUEST LINKS:Website: Nicole MatthiesenRESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE:Download her free EBOOK on her website!PODCAST WEBSITE & SM LINKS:Check out our retreats! www.cufitnessretreats.comWebsite: www.cufitness.comBecome a supporter: https://cufitness.com/the-ultimate-journey-of-self-care-podcast-2/If you are a health/fitness/wellness entrepreneur, or a coach --join our NEW group for coaches and entrepreneurs:   INNOVATE and GROW for Fitness, Health, Wellness and Coaching Entrepreneurs | FacebookFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/alison.h.katschkowsky?ref=bookmarksJoin my Facebook Community:  LIving your Ultimate Life through Fitness and Self Care: https://www.facebook.com/groups/743439322342659/Instagram:  @fitstylegalTwitter:  @ahkatsThe Ultimate Journey of Self-Care Podcast - CU FitnessLeave a REVIEW on Podchaser: Podchaser – Podcast Reviews, Credits, Playlists, & More

This episode is a chat with Dr. Debra Muth, a naturopathic doctor and we go DEEP with the topic of REST and how that fits in to self care.Dr. Muth works with both men and women who suffer from chronic illness, and hormone imbalances.  What is often at the heart of so many reasons why we are tired often is a lack of focus on the ROOT causes, not the symptoms.  Sleep and rest are magical healers–and can help ‘reset’ how our hormones function, and how we can focus on our actual legacy for our lives instead of the ‘hustle’ of working up the ladder.Listen in to our chat and walk away with some easy tips for framing what REST can look like for you.The Ultimate Journey of Self care is proud to be sponsored by BUOY Hydration - The newest in ‘squeezable’ hydration products!Use our coupon code CUFit20 for a 20% discount at justaddbuoy.com GUEST LINKS:Family Health Care Center Milwaukee | Clinical Services - Serenity Health Care (serenityhealthcarecenter.com)Vibrant Female | Vibrant FemaleRESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE:Free Copy of the Essence of Health and Vitality–get from the VibrantFemale website.PODCAST WEBSITE & SM LINKS:Check out our retreats! www.cufitnessretreats.comWebsite: www.cufitness.comBecome a supporter: https://cufitness.com/the-ultimate-journey-of-self-care-podcast-2/If you are a health/fitness/wellness entrepreneur, or a coach --join our NEW group for coaches and entrepreneurs:   INNOVATE and GROW for Fitness, Health, Wellness and Coaching Entrepreneurs | FacebookFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/alison.h.katschkowsky?ref=bookmarksJoin my Facebook Community:  LIving your Ultimate Life through Fitness and Self Care: https://www.facebook.com/groups/743439322342659/Instagram:  @fitstylegalTwitter:  @ahkatsThe Ultimate Journey of Self-Care Podcast - CU FitnessLeave a REVIEW on Podchaser: Podchaser – Podcast Reviews, Credits, Playlists, & More

And he’s just written a book with his process.Listen in and walk away with not only the 9 easily done tips to get you on your way, but a fresh perspective on your goal.*****************************************The Ultimate Journey of Self care is proud to be sponsored by BUOY Hydration - the newest in ‘squeezable’ hydration products!
