Compassion in this context isn’t a popular position for most of society. Quite the contrary actually, just about everything is polarized into “right or wrong, black or white”. Our media, advertising, politics, and most religious institutions all align into this divide. It’s all to common to observe them using force, persuasion, fear, or guilt in order to get others to comply.

The “fitness industry” has much of this too. The lie that skinny equates to healthy has been pushed and ingrained so long that “fat loss supplements” are now a billion dollar industry.
Gyms all over the country have people chasing “getting healthy” solely based on appearance alone.

This is why i find my work and involvement in the health field so important.

Helping others create a holistic lifestyle approach to embracing the development of their human potential. Using some old habits while making room for new....its a transformation tool based on ensuing a long term sustainable foundation no matter age or background. It meets every person where they are, but it all BeginsWithin.

Train smarter not harder…

⚠️Don’t be fooled into believing you need to train balls to the wall for hours each day in order to see results.

⏳Yesterday I had about 40min to move in the gym, luckily I work in a studio that offers more than I need.

✅I ended up doing 2 pulling movements, 1 mobility drill (this video), and 1 dynamic pull. That’s it, and the Back felt great!

•Alcohol’s impact on your body starts from the moment you take your first sip.

Our society has normalized drinking to be a common social habit, that in and of itself i encourage to be reevaluated.
But to use alcohol as a form of self medication to deal with ones problems and stresses, that’s very dangerous territory. The physical and mental consequences to this prescription can literally fill a book.
Here’s a quick overview on some of the consequences and problems with alcohol (many begin with one drink).

•Inflammatory damage
•Sugar levels
•Central nervous system
•Digestive system

Truth needs no defense, all truth is self evident.

To be offended signifies that one is defended, which, in itself, signifies the clinging to an ego position of falsity.

“Write down all your faults. Write down all the faults others think you have, even if you think they’re liars. You take responsibility for it all. If you own it all, nobody has any way to attack you. If others attack you, it’s because you’re not owning something. Besides, there’s nothing wrong with being stupid and ugly. (Laughter). So we admit our faults, and we stop labeling them faults. We have to get over narcissistic sensitivity. All negative reactions are not caused from outside; it’s how we choose. The way to become bulletproof is to own anything that seems a fault. The way to overcome the ego’s reaction to that is to say, “I’m stupid and ugly. It doesn’t matter; God loves me.”
— Dr. David Hawkins

The ego looks for things on the outside for validation and completion. It believes once it acquires more (money, a better partner , better job, better house, more vacations ect) it will finally be happy.

But it's never happy, not for long anyway. Because the egos very nature is to feel incomplete. Therefore if you find yourself always feeling like something is missing then it's probably because you're coming from ego.

When you Begin Within you quickly realize you are the source of happiness and your own fulfillment. Relationships and pursuits are taken then simply to share and express that joy.
Our life is a Gift.... Just to be alive is proof you're a miracle.

Why the solution to everything is to BeginWithin......

Gratitude's power is found in the humble acknowledgement of ones essence.
Love; those who identify the most with it do so because they know who they are.
These individuals are very mindful on how they care for the body. They realize the body although only temporary is the single most useful tool in order to reflect that which they are.
The pursuit of health, wellness, and embracing ones potential is far from a self absorbed ego position based on vanity and narcissism, rather it's an alignment focused on Self-Love
Service to others, there is no higher purpose.

🔹Everyone is familiar with resolutions that quickly fail, and changes of behavior turn out to be easier to formulate than to implement.

… Unaided, the mind is too weak and ineffective to bring about major change…

🔹Hopelessness, suffering, and pain, however, may be the final straw that breaks the ego’s back, and in despair, the person invokes the only possible last source of power itself by turning to God, Divinity, and the spiritual domain by whatever name it may be addressed, a “power greater than myself,” and to which surrender accesses a whole new dimension…

🔷The key element to the empowerment of the Will is consent. … The intention then intensifies the emergence of potentiality into experiential existential reality. This is also the mechanism described at length in the famous A Course in Miracles (1975). It is also the critical first step in Alcoholics Anonymous and other faith-based groups that admit, “without God’s help, we were hopeless and helpless” (Alcoholics Anonymous, 2000).

Do not fall victim and believe the lie‼️

With the new year approaching quickly, so are the false promises of weight-loss secrets/hacks.

⚠️Many "health" promotions/gimmicks are not founded on integrity (or science), in fact, they are counting on you to remain uninformed.

🚫"12lbs or 12in" in 1-3 week”🚫

It’s pretty physiologically impossible to take a supplement and lose weight just from that, without any changes to your diet or activity.

🚩 Red flag alert❗️ Testimonials that make that claim are probably not legit.

I promise – when scientists find the magic ingredient that makes people lose weight while they sit on their butt I’ll let you know. For now though – you’ll need to do the work. Sorry!

❌Don’t be fooled by talk about proprietary blends and/or ingredients.
No one is hiding the world’s best-ever weight-loss secret.

⬇️

The Bottom Line:

•There is no healthy sustainable quick fix.
•Weight loss doesn't equate to being healthy.
•A healthy body Begins Within;
Nutrient dense foods balanced and consumed throughout the day.
•A healthy body is a moving body;
Move on purpose, with purpose.

Let us all live in a way that honors those who have lost their lives.
By replacing hate and fear with LOVE we transcend all that hopes to suppress us.

It was Love of our fellow man that many gave their lives in order to save another's.

It was our Love of Humanity that through such a dark time we turned it into a time to unite and grow together.

It's Love that gives us hope today. May it only become stronger with every tomorrow.
