Among other things, your body is basically a pharmacy, waiting for you to write it a prescription and reward you with feel good drugs through the actions you take that benefit your body. The easiest way to get these natural made feel good drugs from your body is to work out, eat fresh whole foods, and get a good sleep each night.

For the diet: preferably protein/fat based, keep the carbs to a minimum, and cut out all processed foods/sweets/sodas/alcohol/ drugs to go hand in hand in hand with the working out. Meal prep for a few days at a time helps make this easier ... Example: Make a batch of hard boiled eggs to eat for the week so it is easier to succeed with a busy schedule.

For the workouts: strength training and cardio. Take baby steps at first so you don't burn out, but be consistent, even when you're not feeling like it. You will be sore at first, but I promise it will feel good physically after each workout, which will translate to better mental and emotional health. There is a reason runners talk about a runners high...

These are some of the lowest hanging fruit to get your body, mind and emotions in a better place.

So... What should you do today? Start with a 30-45 min walk or run, do push ups/pull ups/sit ups, eat a good steak with eggs/ drink plenty of water, and get good sleep. Rinse and repeat. I guarantee you will get a lasting feeling of more energy to use each day, and have more self confidence if you give this an honest effort every day for a month or two. Then after a while it becomes a habit.

Hope you have a productive weekend friend. Much love and I believe in you! <3<3

Sorry for the long post, but we have all felt the way you are feeling, and from first hand experience, I can say for a fact that these things work like a charm. <3
