Ashley Azevedo

The Fear of Starting

Have you ever wanted to start something but then were totally overwhelmed with feelings of fear about getting started? Of putting yourself out there, of what others might think–just flat out fear. Yupp, we’ve all been there. 

You are not alone. 

Literally everyone has been there–even the most successful people. It’s totally normal for those feeling to creep up. What you decide to do with them is what really separates you.

In today’s vlog I’m talking about how to push past those fears and just get started. 

 

After you’ve watched, I’d love to hear from you! 

What are some ways that you push forward to just get started? Is there something that you find particularly helpful? I’d love to hear it!

You never know who you could help by sharing! So, feel free to leave any of your best practices and tips in the comments below.

 

Happy body, happy mind, happy life!

3 things to *STOP* doing if you want real results 3 things to *STOP* doing if you want real results

1. Excessive cardio.
Cardio is huge for your ♥️ health+ is a necessary PART of an overall program, but it doesn’t need to be excessive. We’ve been conditioned to think cardio is the end all be all for a ‘toned’ look or to lose weight but excessive cardio can actually do more damage than good. Knowing how to fit it into your overall program is key. 

2. Thinking every workout has to be killer.
Having days of varying intensities + being able to actually listen to + work with your body is key. Not every workout has to leave you drenched in sweat + totally depleted to be effective. In fact, focusing on only high intensity workouts could be messing with your progress, your consistency + your ability to recover.

3. Listening to your gf’s brother’s uncle on the workout that’s best for YOU. 
Stop listening to all of the outside advice on what worked for certain people + focus on what works + feels good for YOU. Every body is different + what works for someone else might not work for you. Find someone who has experience working with all different types of bodies + goals who can guide you.

One of the most underrated exercises… WALKING. One of the most underrated exercises…

WALKING. People always write it off because it’s not high intensity or super fun + sexy, and it might feel like you aren’t doing much but walks have HUGE benefits—especially with so many of us sitting so much more than we’re designed to. They can help improve not only your physical health, but your mental health, your mood, etc….AKA it’ll make you feel better, every time.

They’re also a great starting point if you haven’t been exercising regularly but want to start.

Don’t discount what a good walk can do 🚶🏻‍♀️

On those days you just don’t wanna show up…or On those days you just don’t wanna show up…or you wanna quit mid-workout…

What are you FOCUSING on? Where are your thoughts? Focusing on the feel good after effects are going to get you much further than focusing on the current suck of the moment.

It gets easier the more you do it. Just keep redirecting those thoughts + finding ways to enjoy the moment.
