In order to do what GOD has called you to do it is going to take energy

Energy comes mainly from the sleep we get and the food we eat

In order to maximize your energy you have to maximize your healthy eating

The ability to make a healthy choice comes down to implementing this ONE habit

First you need to understand there are 2 parts of our brain involved in decision making

There’s the limbic part of the brain and then there’s the pre-frontal cortex

The limbic part of the brain wants to keep us alive

It’s the part that when you are stressed it says EAT A COOKIE

Why?

It wants relief as quickly as possible with the least amount of effort

The pre-frontal cortex is the part of the brain that thinks things through 

I like to call this the part of the brain we use the day before we go on vacation

We sort, sift, and get stuff done at lightning speed without any procrastination

In order to use that part of our brain more the ONE habit you need to implement is to

DECIDE IN ADVANCE

 

DECIDE IN ADVANCE…

what you’re going to have for dinner

what you’re going to have when your daughter is at soccer practice

what you’re going to have on the way to Bible Study

what you’re going to have at that favorite restaurant your family loves after Church

By deciding in advance you engage the more thoughtful part of your brain

As always I would love to have you continue the conversation over in my closed group Healthy  Boss Ladies 

Thanks so much!!

Enjoy the rest of your day
