THE Traci D Mitchell
Got and ear to bend? It's nice to feel needed and Got and ear to bend? It's nice to feel needed and support people until the needing and supporting becomes a fulltime job. When the things you want to prioritize for yourself get shoved to the back seat because someone else's baggage is taking up the front seat, it's time to reassess. Being a good listener and simply having empathy are both amazing qualities. But just because you possess these qualities doesn't mean they're up for the taking. Giving your time, if it happens very often, can become draining. But it can also become an excuse not to do something better for yourself. Saying, "I don't have time to talk right now. Can we catch up another time?" isn't disrespectful toward someone else, it's establishing a level of respect you deserve for yourself to focus on the things in your life that are meaningful to you. #healthyboundaries #healthylifestyle #tracidmitchell #timeisprecious #stopprocrastinating
Exercise should not be a form of punishment. I get Exercise should not be a form of punishment. I get that there are days when we just might not want to exercise, but we do it because it's good for our bodies. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ Exercising because we know it's good for our bodies is very different than putting in an extra 45 minutes on the elliptical or treadmill to burn off a cupcake. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ Generally speaking, exercise as a means of weight loss is never a win and will usually fail. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ On the other hand, a good amount of movement - in any form - is great for your body.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ If you want a healthier body, devote a reasonable amount of time to:⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ *moving your body in a way you that you like - no movement is bad movement.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ *eating more unprocessed foods from home - because your abs are made in the kitchen.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ *getting high quality sleep - because sleep is like food and does an amazing job balancing fussy hormones.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ Do what you like to do! Move in a way that makes you happy. And if you want to eat a cupcake, eat a cupcake...just not all the time. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣**Join me this fall for my ECG - the coaching group of coaching groups.

Expect pushback when you make positive or healthy Expect pushback when you make positive or healthy changes in your life - especially from the people closest to you. This is not uncommon and can sometimes seem counterintuitive. Why wouldn't everyone want you to be healthy, right? When we change for the better, we feel like rockstars. But sometimes, to the people closest to us, we're not the person we used to be. And that can be a hard thing to deal with. But it's not your problem. It's their problem that they need to work out. I've had very overweight and obese clients lose a lot of weight only the be met with attitude from their spouses, friends or family. This does not happen a majority of the time, but it does happen. And when it does, it shows up in different ways - from food pushing to affection withholding, or just a grumpy/frustrated attitude. Of course, losing weight is not the only way a person can change for the better. You can change the way you eat, change your workouts, change your sleep schedule, change your gym, change how often you go out with friends...just about anything is up for grabs. Personalities are dynamic and there is no single right way to handle situations like this. My go-to is always communication and reiterating why it is important to change. Change is important for everyone, but not everyone changes in the same way. If the people in your life are fixed, surround yourself with other people who will support you - because we're out there! #changeforthebetter #positivechanges #tracidmitchell #liveyourbestlife #healthychanges
Goals are great, but action plans get you making t Goals are great, but action plans get you making the small changes you need to make in order to reach your goal. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Whether you want to lose 30 pounds or run a marathon in under 4 hours, figure out an action plan at the beginning of the week and freshen it up every week - either by raising the bar or scaling things back (depending on how thee week goes).⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ When you create your action plan, make sure to include something related to a strength you possess. For example, if you like being social, reach out to a friend to schedule a few workouts instead if doing them alone; if you enjoy cooking and want to eat healthier, dive into a few websites with healthy recipes and make a plan to meal prep two or three dinners for the week that make for easy leftovers! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ * Keep your weekly action plan to a max of three things (can be anything that you believe will improve your health).⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ * Know your strengths, but know your weaknesses, too! Don't make a commitment to go for a run at 6am if you know you're not a morning person and much prefer evening workouts.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ *Don't quit. Don't quit. Don't quit. Maybe you'll need to adjust your action plan after the first week, but don't stop making strides toward your overarching BIG goal. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ My action plan for this week is simple, but effective for my life and what I know I can commit to. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Here it is: ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ * I will have my new favorite smoothie for lunch every day this week. (recipe below)⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ * I will row 6000 meters 5 days this week, followed by 20 minutes of strength training. (I love rowing these days).⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ *I will dedicate time every day to creating my new anti-inflammatory download. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ That's it! My livelihood, diet and fitness are represented. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ What do you think? What do you think your action plan might look like?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Looking for more support with coaching and creating healthy, weekly action plans? Mark your calendar for the kickoff of my fall coaching program on September 12th. Registration opens soon!⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #goals #healthygoals #actionplan #tracidmitchell #healthylife
Hacks are overrated. I'm not saying I don't love a Hacks are overrated. I'm not saying I don't love a good shortcut when I'm stuck in traffic, but when it comes to health, very few "hacks" work. And if they do work, the results are short-lived. The greatest gratification we can feel doesn't come from cutting corners. It comes from digging in, getting our nails dirty and doing the work. The easy path to staying healthy really does exist, but it comes after tripping over a few cobblestones along the way. After you work out the bumps and smooth out the path, the rest comes naturally. Apply this to eating healthier, cutting out sugar, moving more, stressing less, drinking more water. Anything can seem impossible until you stick with it consistently. Check out my latest article (link in bio) to get tips on straightening out the elusive broken metabolism. #tracidmitchell #stophacking #consistency #livehealthy #healthylivingtips
There are a million miles of difference between th There are a million miles of difference between the impact of processed, unhealthy carbs and plant-based nutrition-packed carbs. We all need carbs, just make sure they're on the healthier side. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ And if you want to make this 10-minute meal prep salad (serves about 4), here is the recipe: ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ - 1 1/2 c chickpeas, rinsed & drained⁣⁣ - 1 c cherry tomatoes, sliced⁣⁣ - 1 c farro, cooked (see below)⁣⁣ - 1/4 c parsley, chopped⁣⁣ - 1/4 c olives, sliced⁣⁣ - 1 tbsp olive oil⁣⁣ - 2 tsp balsamic vinegar⁣⁣ - 1/2 tsp garlic powder, sea salt + oregano (each)⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Mix and enjoy! Refrigerate for 3 to 5 days. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ FARRO: Farro is an ancient grain on par with the nutrition of quinoa...or at least gives quinoa a run for its money. Farro is not gluten free, but quinoa is...in case you're gluten free. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Have fun with this salad and eat more plants! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #reelsinstagram #tracidmitchell #eatmoreplants #plantbased #healthysaladrecipe
