Absolute Best Challenge Day 63

Summer is around the corner and lots of barbecues and grilling recipes will come in handy during the next few months.  Click the video above and check out the many ways to prepare an artichoke!

Day 63.  The Metabolic Cure is about balancing calories "in" with calories "out."  Of course, you want to choose healthy foods rather than fast foods to improve your wellbeing.  And the right type of exercise program is terribly important.  This plan requires discipline to follow it and if you develop that aspect of yourself, you WILL succeed.

Discipline sounds terribly harsh and rigid even though I believe it is the cornerstone of success.  My favorite meaning from Merriam-Webster is; training that corrects, molds or perfects the mental faculties or moral character.  Most people think the consequences of failure is harsh punishment.  I prefer to believe that you mold your body, mind, and spirit to re-shape your thoughts and then, the outcome of this new mold becomes your life.

No one is going to punish you for not eating certain foods or not exercising during this challenge. You may hear a rebel cry deep inside of you screaming to go against the "status quo." It may holler, "Eat that chocolate chip cookie!" or "Skip that fitness class today!"  You are an adult now, you can make whatever decisions you like in life. The rewards or consequences that appear before you are simply the result of your choices or inactions.  No outside power is looming over you to "punish" you.

If you choose wisely, you are rewarded by feeling good, having a sense of wellbeing, tranquility, and calmness about you.  You get the sense that, at any given moment, you can show up for others in the best possible form and manner of being.  If you constantly choose fast foods, drink too much, or take drugs to fix a deep-seated problem without determining its root cause, then chances are the "punishment" will show up in the form of a disease.  It's pretty simple, not easy, just simple.  Life gives you back what you put into your body and mind.

90 days of discipline does not come without its pitfalls.  You discover plenty about yourself when pushing through the rigors of a program like this.  Things will reveal themselves to you that may NOT look like what you have chosen.  You may feel the world is against you and your life is not what you want because you have "bad luck" or, others are against you and they are stalling your progress. Why you?  How come everybody else's life seems to be going smoothly and you are struggling with yours?

Do really want to keep those repeated negative thoughts and behaviors in your mind and body or, do you want to change them? Whatever your choice, you are free to change, or not.  You can decide what type of life you want because you are in the driver seat, no one else, just you.

Your spirit is a reflection of who you are.  It is malleable, quiet, patient and responds to you every wish and command.  Spirit is the essence of who you are.  The best way to get in touch with it is to sit and meditate daily.  Incorporate this "discipline," into your life and this "practice" will strengthen positive energy throughout your body and your mind.  The vibrational frequencies in and around you are so powerful that they can dilute the negative energy.

There are many ways to meditate and there are lots of books, courses, YouTube videos, etc. that can help you learn the basics.  I recommend you sit for 5 minutes, every morning, before you do anything else, and breath.  Just breath.  Start your meditation practice like that and soon you will know what to do next.  The method will unfold before you and your spirit will take flight.  It will reveal itself to you and you will become more inclined to mold and shape your behavior to strengthen your spirit.
