KEY TAKEAWAYS:
● Combining too many exercises can lead to fewer results because you aren't working either muscle to its max capacity. Step away from the message that you MUST do an intense workout to be in the best shape of your life. Focus on activity and movement - it’s been shown that the people who live the longest walk the most.
● Your gut health is vital for your immune system. Balance is what we’re after with our immune system. To accomplish optimal health, reviewing your lifestyle and food choices is essential. Understanding what to take when our immune system is down vs. on a daily basis.
● Health is all about your lifestyle. Choosing the best foods for your body, getting enough sleep, drinking water, and moving your body are great places to start. Learning what works for you, getting curious about the messages your body is sending, and healing your gut are the best things you can do for yourself and your health.
QUOTES:
“There’s genetics and epigenetics, and epigenetics are all about lifestyle. You can't change your genes, but you absolutely can change how your genes manifest. That’s all our lifestyle choices.” - Jenn Trepeck
“If once a week you are up between 10 pm-5 am for 2-3 hours, the body interprets that as a shift worker. It can take a couple of days for our internal clocks to recalibrate after we’ve had that experience of being awake in those hours. Even if we think of it just one day a week, if it happens once, it takes a few days to recalibrate; our biology living modern lives is that of a shift worker, which really messes with our circadian rhythms.” - Jenn Trepeck
“With years of dieting or following this plan and that plan, there are rules with those plans. We follow the rules instead of following ourselves and following our bodies. We teach ourselves out of paying attention to our bodies. So stop the rules; the rules make us ignore our bodies. A shift from the judgment of what our body is doing to the observation of what we are experiencing and what our body is trying to tell us by what it's experiencing.” - Jenn Trepeck
