Having the Right Mindset For a Healthy Body

Are you thinking what i'm thinking? Well if so I advise you to read this whole post due to tips and engagement that will rise you to a happier lifestyle. 


The non-fiction text "Change Your Brain Change Your Body" states, "It is your brain that decides to get you out of bed in the morning to exercise, to give you a stronger wiener body, or to cause you to hit the snooze button and procrastinate your work out. It is your brain that pushes you away from telling the table that you have had enough, or give you permission to have a second bowl of rocky road ice cream, making you look and feel like a blob. Is your brain the manages the stress in your life and relax with you so that you look vibrant, or when you left unchecked, send stress signals to the rest of your body and wrinkles to your skin. And it is your brain that turns away cigarettes, too much caffeine and alcohol, helping you look and feel healthy or give you the permission to not. Yes all create a system of health" (Daniel Amen 3). 
The text is applying the figures that if you use your brain the correct way and develop your brain to have strong, successful and healthy habits, it will develop you to overcome a procedure in life. That procedure will make you get and keep the body and habits that you will have always wanted. If you succeed to have strong, successful and healthy habits you will indeed  see changes quickly if prohibited. 
I have been through the challenges of being stuck with fast food for almost every meal of the day, lack of sleep on school nights and having a weak mindset of wanting to workout but then not being able to due to laziness. This all can affect your mindset of staying healthy but can be revoked by saying "No i am doing this today." Or "I'm making the promise of staying healthy for a year or my whole life."



Here I am reading the book "Change Your Brain Change Your Body." This book is very inspiring and gives great tips and lots of mindset tips on changing you brain to be successfully healthy.

The text again states, "Your brain is the command and control center of your body if you want to have a better body the first thing is to always start having a better growth mindset"  (Amen 4). 
This is left me with a message that when you do something your brain has muscle memory to want to make that a habit and do it over and over again. If you do that habit over and over again it will affect you in the long run badly. But if the habits that are strong, successful and healthy they will make you proficient and headed towards a successful mindset. 




Even i have tried and tried to keep a confident workout mindset throughout every summer and School year but sometimes you just need to take a break. Breaks are good but never procrastinate and let them get off the hook. Always have a backup plan and ease off the workout. don't just say "Okay well i'm done with this" and stop. Force yourself to start up again in another week. It is worth it trust me.

Do you want to improve your looks, style, eating habits, strength and health in general? Well, if you can develop a growth mindset to keeping a long term healthier lifestyle you are indeed ready to start a fresh "I will stay healthy" rather than a "I can't stay healthy".
Is your mindset healthy enough to keep your body sturdy? If you have any concerns follow my steps above and you will see changes in your health standards.

  2. Hi Kyle, currently I am blogging about gaining self-confidence and I think that can connect to your idea of getting into the right mindset to make improvements in your life. The concept of needing to be in the proper mental state before you make any big life changes is super important to make good progress. I like your approach to making these changes. My question is, How can you make a plan to a healthy lifestyle on a busy schedule?

    1. Hello Lizze. I appreciate your time and dedication to create a comment for my blog post about “having the right mindset for healthy body.” I truly agree that connecting the idea of self-confidence as a factor to getting healthy is used by developing a correct mindset. It is advised that developing dedication develops motivation to have a mindset through the concepts of staying healthy. I also agree about how you state that having a mental state before you make big changes in your life is super important. I agree that is another main factor of having a successful mindset. Thank you for the compliment. To answer your question about “ how can you make a plan to a healthy lifestyle on a busy schedule” is, dedicate yourself to time. Create this procedure that successfully works on your schedule.

  3. You said in your blog to take breaks but never procrastinate. Should you or should you not continue to work at your goals when your tired or when you have had a bad day? If so what are some things that you have done to push away from or push through those difficult times
