Here is a Tip to Rev up Your Metabolism:

Pilates is Awesome!

Tip#1:  Eat Breakfast

Metabolism is all about keeping enough logs on the fire. If your metabolism is compared to a bonfire, how can you make it burn stronger without putting something on it to burn? Our bodies are burning calories every hour of the day, however, they burn at their slowest rate while we are sleeping. If you don’t do something to jump start it in the morning, your metabolic rate may stay at a reduced level for several hours into the day. The act of eating and digesting food increases your metabolism. We need to get it moving first thing, to start off the day with a bang! Some people say that they crave more throughout the day if they eat breakfast (thinking that’s a “bad” thing).  It’s actually a great sign that your body is burning through calories…a GOOD thing!

 

In summary, the things you overlook in your daily lives, thinking they will not make much of a difference, often add up to a lot.  In reality our health is very often determined by the little things we do that do add up!

 

If you’re looking for a holistic approach to living with recommendations on how to eat, decompress and enjoy life, I can help you stay accountable with a system you can live with.
