Did you know that a common genetic trait, found in up to 60% of people, might be making you more prone to burnout? And this is significantly more common if you have ADHD?
How have you been feeling lately? Dig deep and really feel it for a second. Are you feeling fantastic? Do you jump out of bed every morning ready to tackle the day?
Or… Are you feeling less-than-stellar? Do you have a bad case of the “blahs” or the “I-don’t-wannas”?
Are you tired of hearing about all of the problems with being stressed out all the time? Ya, me too. Because really! It’s not very helpful when stress is almost impossible to get away from. Between work, family, bills, and commitments, there’s no time to relax.
How much do you love salty foods? When you put a salty bit of loveliness (maybe a favourite potato chip?) into your mouth, does your whole body light up? Does it just taste SOOOO good? Like the best. food. ever.
Cravings can be hard to overcome. Many experts have many different techniques to banish your cravings for good. Do they work? Sometimes? Kinda? I have a different (and kinder) approach :)
Aren’t the 40s exhausting enough? High stress careers. Teenagers (or younger children) in the house. Elderly parents. …and now hormones. Really, hormones? You couldn’t have waited until my retirement to get all wacky?
You’re doing everything “right”. You’re exercising a TON and you’re eating very little…but nothing. No weight loss. And, it doesn’t make any sense at all! Your fitbit is telling you that you’re burning more calories every day than you’re eating! How is this possible???
You know the feeling…you’re feeling pretty okay all day. Ya, maybe you’re not at 100%, but you’re a solid okay. And then, around 3 or 4 pm, your energy crashes. You’re suddenly foggy, tired, and have a bad case of the “I don’t wannas”.
