IT WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE EASY

let it really sink in.

it was never meant to be easy, yet, you’re doing it.

stop doubting yourself.

I know nobody ever donates to these things, but I figured I'd share it just in case I have any friends who recently won the lottery or something. 😂

10,000 steps a day or 30 minutes of Japanese walking? Harvard doctor explains which is better

Gastroenterologist Dr. Saurabh Sethi is in favour of the trending Japanese walking technique. “The Japanese have discovered a walking technique with more benefits than the traditional 10,000 steps. It is called interval walking, that is, alternating 3 minutes of slow walking with 3 minutes of brisk walking, like you are rushing to an important meeting. Do this for 30 minutes daily, and the…

giving up cheap dopamine

sometimes I choose not to eat clean and not to do my work or move my body… I once used to be like that all the time. But I can’t pull it off anymore, I just feel awful and need to go back on track to feel like myself again.

I’m happy about this because even though I need to learn discipline and strengthen my will power (not choosing crappy dopamine) doing healthy things is part of my identity and also the only thing that truly makes me happy. this makes me believe I’m on the right path!

anyways, vacation is over so I’ll go back to posting my goals and tasks tomorrow💋

Revolution

And this is me now! I'm not sharing this to prove that I am great or I did the impossible and this and that or whatever...I just want to say... Friends!That LIFE IS PRECIOUS! AND I'M SIMPLY GRATEFUL! 🙏I'm sharing this so I can inspire and motivate friends, family and people! 😊🤗💪💛👍Love, Light and respect! Mandy

PS! On a strong note...Friends... You don't have to go through an accident like me to realise how precious Life IS! Yet... Accidents happen all the time! That's Life! COVID was the biggest and longest accident and many died because of less immunity. There are other accidents like stress, obesity, mental disorder, heart problems, blood pressure, dibitis and many more. But let me tell you... If you are healthy, You will always come out victorious from these accidents and be able to live life to the fullest! Life - a great opportunity given to us by our loving God! Do not take your existence for granted!Start taking care of yourself! If not now then When...Sorry for being blunt here...I did the 21 days Meditation Challenge last month for inculcating Mindfulness and from tomorrow the 10000 steps for 21 days is for the body. Thanks to many of you who participated. Will come out with some idea for a 21 day Challenge for the SOUL in the near future.The idea is to work on Mind , Body and Soul!Why am I doing this?Because I'm filled with gratitude and don't want to waste this opportunity of being alive again and bringing a change and making this world a better place in which ever small way, if I can and share a beautiful life with my fellow Earthians! 😌🤗🙏For me it's a Revolution... Or rather an Evolution! 💪🤗👍An ascending life, in which we keep striving to grow and improve—this is what is meant by human revolution. Human revolution doesn’t mean becoming something special or different from who we are; it simply means striving to improve, no matter what challenges we face.Each human life, together with its environment, is an expression of the fundamental life-force of the entire cosmos. It follows that any change in the inner life condition of a single human being can, at the deepest level of life itself, exert an influence on other human lives. And since nature and the cosmos are living entities, the waves emanating from one human life can shake the foundations of other living beings, and even affect inanimate forms of life.Learning and sharing... Learning by Sharing! 😌🤗💪💛👍😇🙏Love and light 🌞💛🙏

DAY 17!!! walking gotta be my fav part of the day now 🌞

With my new book due for release at the end of this week, and after having some time away, its time to get back to the old routine.

Inspired by my book, i have decided the old routine needs some new routines.....

Time for some habit stacking (i don't want to overwhelm myself)
