#59: Optimise Your Happy Hormones in Order to ACTUALLY Feel Motivated to Make Change
Body Bites With Bec - A podcast by Bec Miller, Health with Bec - Wednesdays
For change we need motivation. And without the feel-good chemicals in our bodies, it makes it damn hard. I truly believe that happiness is central to growth and change in all areas, including finding and maintaining your balanced weight. I mean... if we don't feel good, we don't want to feel our bodies well, we don't have the motivation to exercise and we don't have the grit to take those steps that we SO WANT TO TAKE. Feeling sad, unmotivated and low unfortunatly can keep you stuck in your comfortable ways, and whilst it's SO normal and we all have our bad days, there are ceritnaly ways they we can try to boost our bodies serotinin (feel good chemicals) to help us have more of the better ones. So, this episode is for you if you're looking to boost your happiness in order to make these healthy changes easier. If you're struggling at the moment, please know that you're not alone. I really hope this podcast helps you. Links mentioned: Visit my website to see my brand new recipe and learn all about my programs!
