I brainstormed some of the unhealthy habits I’ve struggled with in the past which happen to be what my clients need support with too. If you'd like to make some healthy changes, start here.

1. Juice Cleansing and Detoxing
Are you treating your body poorly during the times in
between with sugar, alcohol, nicotine and caffeine?
Are you trying to lose weight?
Do you constantly feel bloated or have bad skin breakouts?
A juice cleanse can’t solve these long-term.
Consider changing
your daily habits
instead.

2. Diet Soda
I realized I needed it most when I was 1) thirsty and 2) tired or
bored.
When I really want the fizz, I drink seltzer. Whatever your vice
may be, what are its triggers? What can you replace it with?
Start there. Even just acknowledging them can set the wheels
of change in motion.

3. Negative Self Talk
Don’t do it. Yes, it’s going to be difficult. At times, near impossible. Do
whatever you have to do — put down the magazines, log off the
Internet, call a friend, post affirmations on your mirror.
If you wouldn’t say it to a child, don’t say it to yourself.

4. Skipping Meals
If this is a regular occurrence
for you, make it a point to set
aside time to sit down and
eat. It prevents overeating
later on and keeps your
metabolism steady.
You — and your waistline —
will be glad you did.

5. Dining Out and/or Relying on Takeout for
Every Meal
It’s the best thing I’ve ever done for my health. Sometimes it
does feel easier to order in or go out and there are times
when you should, but more often than not, cook at home. It’s
the single, best way to lose those last 5 pounds, de-bloat and
save money.

6. Dating Bad Boys
Yes, they’re fun and exciting but
the thrills will only get you
through a night, not a lifetime.
Spend some time alone, cultivate
self love, know your worth and
how you want to feel with a
partner then don’t settle for
anything less.

7. Staying Up Past Your Bedtime
Resist the urge to catch up on Gossip Girl. It certainly can’t rev
your metabolism and slow aging the way rest can. Sleep is
free and one of the best things you can do for your body.
So get lots of it. 8 hours a night, missy!

8. Binge Drinking
It’s unattractive, makes you feel like crap and eat more crap.
And the older you get, the longer you’ll feel like crap. Have
fun, be present and know your limits.

9. Fad Diets
Vegan, Paleo, Glute
n-free and the list
goes on!
There will always
be a new diet or
popular way of
eating
The real
challenge is
knowing what
works for you. If
you find yourself
jumping from fad
diet to fad diet,
take a step back
and explore what
your body really
needs.

10. Toxic Relationships
Oprah said it best, “surround yourself with people who will lift you
higher” Let go of those who don’t. Being in the presence of
supportive people will change your world. It’s that simple.

11. Putting Your Dreams and Desires on Hold
If you wait to be ready you’ll never be ready. The time is
N-O-W. If you take a step forward in the direction of your
dreams, the odds are you’ll only keep moving that way.
