I eat well throughout the day.  But at night time, my cravings go wild and my evening turns into a feeding frenzy.  I'm not hungry, but I just can't seem to stop night time eating.  What can I do?  I just know that if I'd stop nighttime eating I'd lose weight.

Sound familiar?

I've heard some version of the above statement many, many times.   And it's time I tackle this topic on a podcast.

In this episode of the Fit and Vibrant You Podcast I discuss why your eating may be out of control at nighttime, and specific action steps and strategies to help tame your nighttime feeding frenzy.

It’s not happy people who are thankful.  It’s thankful people who are happy.

For the past year or so, expressing gratitude has been a daily habit.  It’s on my ‘Tanja’s ideal week” success tracker and I’ve been consistent, and it’s dramatically improved my life.  

Naturally, I was really excited to connect with Julie Boyer, who takes gratitude to a whole new level, and I learned a lot, and have already started to implement some of the action items we talked about on the show. 

She shared this quote:
“Without exception, begin every day of your life with gratitude. As you look in the mirror, say, “Thank you, God, for life, for my body, for my family and loved ones, for this day, and for the opportunity to be of service. Thank you, thank you, thank you!” -Wayne Dyer

Julie Boyer is The Grateful Entrepreneur. Her mission in life is to create grateful greatness globally for entrepreneurs and future entrepreneurs. Julie’s first book, 30 Days of Gratitude, The Gratitude Program That Will Change Your Life, became an Amazon bestseller when it was released in May 2013. Her current work on gratitude is My Year of Gratitude, A Daily Gratitude Project, where she is blogging daily and sharing her gratitude tips.

Julie loves to mentor and develop leaders through her mentorship program and partnership with USANA Health Sciences.  A former triathlete, Julie has completed 3 full Ironman Distance triathlons. Julie lives in  Burlington, Ontario with her 5 year old daughter and husband Dan.

Here’s what we talked about:
  • Simple ways to add a gratitude practice into your day (I’m an action person… I need simple steps to follow!)
  • How you can find gratitude during tough times
  • Why gratitude is a choice, and how to choose it
  • The power of being grateful for future situations and accomplishments

All diets work... for 4-6 weeks, if you're lucky.  But, if you diet, the odds are stacked against you: 95% of dieters gain the weight back, and then some.  In fact, going on a diet is the #1 predictor of weight gain.  
 

Crazy, right?

The answer is not to throw in the towel and dive head first into a bag of Doritos. 

In this podcast, I tell you WHY diets fail (even 'healthy' diets), and it nothing to do with lack of willpower.

More importantly, I share what you can do to stick to long term healthy habits for good.

I met Josh Biro (also known as Josh Asana) about a month ago at a conference in Red Deer, Alberta.  We talked, of course, about yoga, and i realized that I had so many misconceptions about yoga.  He opened my eyes to what yoga actually is, and I was reminded why I could benefit from a bit more yoga in my life.

If you're in Chilliwack (my hometown) check out Studio B Yoga.
In this episode we go over:

    What yoga actually is (and it may not be what you think)
    Why you could really benefit from yoga
    Some of the misconceptions about yoga, and  while we're at it, we'll also bust a few of your excuses why you don't do yoga
    How much you should do to get results

This week's freebie is a 15 minute yoga for energy session/ workout that you can do at home (and yes, it's only 15 minutes). Download at www.tanjashaw.com/18
