Three Rounds to Strengthen Your Heart

 

 Your heart is a muscle. Do your reps to build strength.

Let's talk about three rounds we all have to do to keep our hearts strong.

As a wellness and fitness coach who teaches mindset, nutrition, and fitness, I believe and teach that you must start with your own love for yourself before you nurture relationships with others. So, let's build two sessions: Session one is love through self-care. Session two is love through relationships with others.

 

Session one: Love through self-care.

We will have three rounds with fun sets! Let's go!

Round 1. Mindfulness. Love yourself.

  • Set 1. Morning Mirror Exercise: Look at yourself in the mirror and say, "I love you," ten times. Give grace to yourself if it feels hard at the beginning.
  • Set 2. Afternoon Calm: Quiet your mind throughout the day. Practice mindful awareness of your senses (sight, sound, touch, smell, taste). In the upcoming members training on February 28th, 3:30 PM CST, we will be covering these essential tools. 
  • Set 3. Eve...

It's a Journey, Not a Destination

mindset & mindfulness Jan 26, 2025
 

 

Have you ever felt like you're constantly waiting to be healthy? You might tell yourself, "Once I reach this weight, then I'll be healthy," or "When I have more time, then I'll start eating better." But the truth is, health isn't a destination – it's a journey.

 

Why We Stall on the Road to Wellness

We often get stuck in a rut when we view health as a finish line. We wait for the "perfect" time to start, or we get discouraged when we don't see immediate results. This can lead to unhealthy habits and a feeling of defeat.

Shifting Your Perspective: Health as a Journey

Instead of focusing on an end goal, let's embrace health as a continuous process. This means taking small, consistent steps each day to improve your overall well-being.

👉 Here's how to shift your perspective:

  • Focus on the present: What can you do today to nourish your body and mind?
  • Set process goals: Instead of aiming for a specific weight, set goals for daily actions like eating more vegetables or...

Don't Set Fix-It Goals, Align with Vision & Values - 2025

mindset & mindfulness Jan 19, 2025
 

 

I can’t help but notice a recurring theme in everything I talk about around New Year's Resolutions. Week after week, the message remains the same because it’s that important:

👉 Your “why,” your vision, and your values are the foundation of everything.

We talked about this in my Master Your Wellness membership on Friday (woo-hoo, we just kicked off 12 months of transformation!). If you'd like to join us, just let me know—we’re diving deep into mindset, nutrition, and fitness for a complete lifestyle transformation.

But here’s the thing: I’ve realized many of us set goals just to “fix” something. We think, “If I can fix this one thing, I’ll be happy.”

Let’s flip that script.

Here’s what I want you to take away:

🌟 Don’t Set Fix-It Goals

Instead, align your goals with your vision and values—with your “why.”

  • Ask yourself, “Why do I want this? What’s underneath that why?”
  • Think of your goals as stepping stones, not destinations.

Do These 3 Things Now to Avoid Failing New Year Resolutions (and Actually Create Lasting Change)

 

 The champagne cork has popped, the glitter settled, and the blank slate of a new year beckons. But with it comes the inevitable flood of resolutions, often destined to fade with the January frost.

 

Do you know that January 10th was a National New Year Resolutions Quitter Day?

 

This year, break the cycle! Ditch the "all or nothing" approach and embrace a sustainable strategy for lasting change. Here are 3 crucial things you can do right now to avoid resolution failure and set yourself up for success:

 

1. Zoom Out, Then Refocus: See Far, Aim Close

Start by anchoring your goals in your deepest "why." What do you truly want your life to look like, not just in a year, but at the end of a decade? What values do you want to guide your journey? Check out the "Why" blog post.

Now, break down that ambitious vision into achievable milestones. Think stepping stones: goals for 3 months, 2 months, 1 month, even weekly and daily. Each small action propels you forward, making the long-term...

Why is the Key to Consistency

mindset & mindfulness Jan 05, 2025
 

It took me years to get my diet right, decades to get strong, and over 15 years to create the Wellness Vortex model. It took energy, effort, and focus to achieve Coaching by Nadya as a full-time career, claim my personal and financial independence, and still wake up with motivation and carry a great amount of energy throughout the day. How do I do that? This journey taught me one important truth:

the key to lasting change is knowing your “Why.”

 

Here’s a secret that the world’s most motivated people know:

If you want to reach your goals, you have to know your why.

What does that mean? Take Olympic athletes, for example. They’ve dreamed of representing their country and possibly winning a medal since childhood. That dream is their “Why.” Rarely do coaches have to poke them or incentivize them because they’re intrinsically motivated.

“When your why is high, the thing you used to dread—like fitness—will become the thing you’ll do without giving it a second thought,” ...

7 Steps to Powerfully Complete Your Year and Set Intentions for the Next

mindset & mindfulness Dec 30, 2024
 
 

As the year winds down, many of us take this time to reflect on what has been and envision what’s ahead. Today, I’m sharing a 7-step system that can help you powerfully close out 2024 and set clear, actionable intentions for 2025. This process blends reflection, planning, and accountability, ensuring that you step into the new year with clarity and purpose.

Grab a notebook, take a few deep breaths, and let’s dive in!

 


Step 1: Celebrate Your 2024 Wins

Take a moment to list all your celebrations from this year. These can include goals you’ve achieved, unexpected surprises, or even small, meaningful victories. No win is too small to acknowledge. The energy of celebration is what fuels your momentum moving forward.

Ask yourself:

  • What accomplishments am I proud of this year?
  • What unplanned victories brought me joy?

Write down at least 3-7 (or more!) things worth celebrating.

 


Step 2: Review Your 2024 Goals

Reflect on your 2024 goals in three parts:

How To Get What You Want in 5 Steps

mindset & mindfulness Dec 29, 2024
 

As we gear up for the new year, I want to share something meaningful with you—a 5-step reflective sequence you can use to set and achieve goals, whether they’re daily, weekly, monthly, or even annual.

This simple yet powerful process has worked wonders for me, not just in my wellness journey but in many other areas of my life as well. Let’s dive in!

 


The Power of Reflection: What Do You Want?

As the year winds down, it's a natural time to slow down, reflect, and ask yourself:

What do I really want?

Not just what looks good on paper or what society says you should aim for, but what truly lights you up and makes you feel good inside. Sometimes we approach goals with a "chase the carrot" mindset, thinking we’ll be happy after we achieve them.

But here’s the shift: Instead of chasing, why not create a life that already feels fulfilling as you work toward your goals?

Let this question guide you as you move through the next steps.

The Positive Sandwich: The Art of Saying 'No'

mindset & mindfulness Dec 15, 2024

Happy Sunday, {{ first_name }}!

The holiday season often brings a surge of invitations and expectations. This can be a great time to connect with loved ones, but it can also highlight the importance of boundaries.

 

So how do you gracefully decline an invitation without feeling guilty or jeopardizing your relationships?

 

I recently encountered this myself. After a period of intense studying for my Nutrition Coach and CPR certifications (which I passed!), I found myself needing quiet downtime instead of attending a party on the evening after my exams.

This perfectly illustrates the value of saying 'No'!

 

Welcome to 'The Positive Sandwich'!

This communication technique helps you navigate tricky situations while prioritizing your well-being.

 

Here's how 'The Positive Sandwich Technique' it works:

 

Step 1. Express Gratitude

Thank the person for thinking of you. Be genuine and express your appreciation in your own way. If you're in person, make eye contact and smile.

Unlock Your Potential: Discovering Your Non-Negotiables for Success

mindset & mindfulness Oct 19, 2024
 

Have you ever wondered what truly drives your success? What are those essential elements that, if you were to let go of them, would derail your progress?

In this email, I want to delve into the concept of non-negotiables for success and how they can be the key to unlocking your full power.

 

What are Non-Negotiables?

Non-negotiables are the fundamental habits that you simply cannot compromise on. They are the building blocks of your success, whether it's in your career, relationships, health, or personal growth. When you upgrade your non-negotiables, you upgrade your life!

 

Why are Non-Negotiables Important?

  1. Foundation for Success: Think of non-negotiables as the foundation of a house; in health case, the foundation of the Wellness Vortex. Without a strong foundation, the structure is unstable and prone to collapse. Similarly, without a solid foundation of non-negotiables, your success is at risk.
  2. Clarity and Focus: Identifying your non-negotiables provides clarity and focus...
