MADISON CHASE FITNESS: Fit From the Inside Out

(June 1, 2006)

Health and Fitness has a beginning and an end. The beginning starts with your mindset. The end is determined by where and how you begin. In this media driven society we are bombarded with images of men and women who fit the ideal image of fitness. From the outside, their abs are tone and their biceps are bulging. They look like a perfect ad for any fitness product. But you have to ask yourself what is going on inside of their bodies. Did they starve themselves, or bulk up on supplements that will eventually wreck havoc on their bodies 10 years from now. Or are they beginning their day with a healthy mindset that will last for a lifetime.

True fitness begins with your mindset. How do you start your day? I am not talking about what you eat, that’s another article. I’m talking about how do you feel when you first role out of bed. Do you press the snooze button, because you need the extra 10 minutes because you are dreading your day? Are you springing out of bed excited about your plans? If your day begins slowly you have to address why are you feeling that way.

Are you happy with where you are in your career, spiritual life, emotionally, finances, and physically?

If any of these areas in your life are suffering we often find excessive ways to escape our dissatisfaction. To quickly satisfy our dissatisfaction we try to fix them with short-term fixes. The short -term fix surfaces as drinking excessively, chain smoking, overeating, not eating at all. Many people overeat to escape unpleasant feelings or traumas that have occurred in their lives. If you are in emotional pain seek out a third party or counselors who can help you sort through the pain. True health and fitness that last a lifetime can be achieved by working towards a healthy mind, spirit and body through daily practice.

Start by:
1. Set your own standards of success
2. Love yourself no matter what
3. Begin your day with positive affirmations
4.Set your own agenda
5. Live your dreams big and small
6. Make plans for your dreams, so they become a reality
7. Leave your regrets behind
8. Start each day as if it were your last
9. Shed the negative and run into the positive
10. Find a small victory each day and treat your self with physical activities ( 30 MINUTES OR MORE)
