The Miracles of Holistic Fitness

 

What is Holistic Fitness?

Are you ready to take the next step in your fitness journey? Holistic fitness is that extra step you’ve been looking for. Holistic fitness is an approach to healthy living which involves not only the body but also the psychological and spiritual parts of us. Our mental state and emotions affect our physical health and vice versa. This being said, we need to take care of our entire being in order to be happy and healthy.

Benefits of Holistic Fitness

Holistic fitness will bring a much-needed balance to all aspects of life. This balance comes through being attentive to the needs of the mind, body, and spirit. It is critical for the body and mind to be on the same page in order to work together in harmony. When the mind is in a positive place, we tend to have an enhanced desire to prioritize our health, to take care of ourselves, and to change our lifestyle. When we do these things our mood, appetite, energy levels, and sleep patterns will improve. Holistic fitness also exposes the root cause of ailments that can occur in the body whether it be emotional or physical. These problems usually surface when our bodies are out of balance. Our bodies can spiral out of balance when we do not pay close attention to the messages they send us. Taking time out of the day to listen to our bodies little messages is very important and helpful.

How & Why it Works Better for Women Losing Last to 10-15 Lbs

It is no secret that many women struggle to lose their final 10-15 pounds. If you are at the point in your weight loss journey, where you are struggling to let go of the last 10-15  pounds, the holistic fitness approach will be extremely beneficial to you. In fact, it doesn’t have to be as hard as you might think. With the proper emotional healing and nutrition, releasing that excess weight is simple and straightforward. It is necessary to find out what is preventing you from releasing the weight. Once the reason has been pointed out, it can be addressed and dealt with.  For example, stress can make you hold onto excess weight. This happens because stress creates a hormone called cortisol, which can lead to increased abdominal fat. Another example could be that you might use food as a coping mechanism, causing you to gain weight or keep those 10-15 pounds on, no matter how you try to lose them. The key to these types of obstacles just happens to be emotional healing. When these emotional wounds are healed, things such as stress and unhealthy coping mechanisms are no longer needed, and you can let go of that excess weight.

Holistic fitness works wonders for your mind, body, and spirit. Who doesn’t want their entire being working together in harmony? And for those of you that are looking to shed the last 10-15 pounds, holistic fitness provides that solution you’ve been searching for. It is never too late to take care of yourself, inside and out.
