Reframe Your Mindset: Ditch the 'Exercise Grind,' Create a Sustainable Movement Practice, and Learn to Listen to Your Body

In this episode, I'm talking all about how your mindset impacts fitness and tackling those societal pressures that push us toward the whole "exercise grind" mentality. Spoiler: I'm not a fan of that intense, all-or-nothing approach. Instead, I'll share some tips on how to reframe your thinking so that movement actually feels enjoyable and sustainable. We'll also get into the link between fitness and self-worth, why over-exercising can backfire, and how comparison and judgment can throw you off track. Plus, I'll share some ways to shift your mindset, listen to your body, and focus on what it's truly capable of — so you can start feeling good about moving again.   Free resources: • The (free) wellness personality quiz • Connect on instagram @theholistic.remedy   Additional resources: • The women's holistic health course • The monthly women's health membership • Functional lab testing • The THR® Method Health Program   What I cover in this episode: 02:48 — Holidays are the best :) 04:04 — Transitioning a fitness routine into winter 05:17 — Societal constructs around fitness 07:43 — Why I'm not into the "exercise grind" 09:13 — How to reframe your perspective on fitness  10:35 — Staying in the present moment 12:18 — Moving your body should feel good 13:13 — The connection between fitness & self-worth 13:48 — Excessive workouts can lead to weight gain  15:10 — Letting go of judgment and comparison 17:58 — Shift the focus to functionality 18:58 — Listen to your body  21:20 — Adjusting your mindset is the key 22:05 — Your body's unique needs & rhythms   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.
