Training your brain to catch yourself when you're thinking in ways that create anxiety rather than health is the first step in having a positive and healthy mindset.

A positive mindset is part of a healthy lifestyle as well as a tool in reducing your risk of breast cancer recurrence.

However, that's easier said than done.

In this episode, you'll learn a simple trick to train your brain to be aware of when your thoughts are going in the wrong direction and how to bring them back before they make you sick.

#1 Let Your Lifestyle be Your Medicine

Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach

play

06/20/17 • 25 min

In this introductory episode, you'll hear my story of how Breast Cancer changed my life and started me on the journey to become a Certified Health Coach, passionate about supporting other breast cancer survivors.

I talk about some of the long-term challenges that Breast Cancer Survivors face and how we can get back to living active, balanced, happy lives.

With a background in Ayurveda, personal training and Yoga, I believe that a healthy lifestyle includes much more than diet and exercise, especially after breast cancer. A critical part of recovery is connecting to and understanding all of the signals and needs of your body and your spirit.

After listening, I think you'll agree.

#105 How to Manage Your Mind and Stay Connected to Support Your Health

Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach

play

09/19/20 • 47 min

If you’ve ever felt out of place, disconnected, or alone even when you were surrounded by people or had the opportunity to engage in social events, it’s more than likely the thoughts you were telling yourself that kept you in that place.

Not only do we fall into the habit of allowing our thoughts to run away with us and create stories that harm our health. We’re often not even aware that we can change that. Sometimes we’re not even aware of what we’re doing to ourselves.

In this show, I’ll talk about how to change the way you think about the situations and people that leave you feeling disconnected and the risks to your health if you don’t begin to manage your mind.

#103 How to Learn to Love Your Body

Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach

play

09/03/20 • 37 min

When you think of unhealthy or toxic relationships, do you ever consider your own body in that equation?

Some people are dedicated and incredibly good to their bodies, but most of us either have issues with it or ignore it altogether, which actually results in abusing it.

But how are you supposed to love something that doesn’t do what you want it to? Something that doesn’t look the way you want it to look, or it gets sick when you don’t want to deal with illness.

Maybe a change in perspective would make it easier to begin improving that relationship. Because even some people who seem to treat their body well aren’t doing it out of love and appreciation for how their body serves them, but there’s often an agenda for how the body should look or perform if you treat it a certain way and when it doesn’t, that relationship can suffer too.

In this show, I’ll tell you how I realized I had to change the way I looked at my body to begin loving it rather than judging it and continuously putting it down. And I’ll also give you a couple of simple tips to get you going down that path of change too.

Breast cancer is a devastating diagnosis and it can have a huge impact on your thoughts, actions, and the people around you.

#5 Two Habits You Must Break to Create A Healthier Lifestyle

Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach

play

06/22/17 • 32 min

Healthy habits at their foundation include making good choices with nutrition and exercise, but that's just the beginning.

A healthy lifestyle includes your relationships, your thinking, how and when you eat, when and what type of exercise you do, and how you think of and treat yourself through thoughts and actions.

In this week's episode, we look at two habits that are common to just about everyone and how they create a downward spiral of making unhealthy choices. One of these habits is especially common to breast cancer survivors, including me, as we learn to live in a new version of our body.

Breaking these two habits will change the way you feel about yourself and take the stress out of living a healthy lifestyle.
