What is going on, everyone? Welcome to another episode of the fit, healthy, and most of all,

happy podcast. I'm your festive coach and host Josh here with. Your other festive co-host and co-coach

KG and I'm in the house. Switched up filming spots today, which is kind of fun. You know,

it's nice about we have a really low budget podcast setup. We we just have like two nice um they're not boom mics but they're just focused mics anyway so you talk right into them which is really cool um and yeah we're filming a different spot filming a kyle's place which is really cool so i think there be some good energy to this i see he's got a s hat in front of me. I should have threw it on because

we're getting close there. You know, it's almost Christmas season. So, you know, I even like to challenge my clients this week with really putting your foot on the gas, right? Like obviously as we get into this week, it's going to be a little bit more challenging. You know, you're going to have some more events you're going to have some more fun there's going to be more sweets around you're going to be

feeling the festive spirit if you will so this is a good time to not slack on that training to try and get in earlier in the week. You know, if you're able to get your workouts in nice and early, that way you can enjoy your weekend, enjoy some R&R, enjoy some time with family. Uh, but this is a great time to keep hustling because 2022 is right around the corner. So we got to stay focused and we got to stay fired up. Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

Absolutely. And so that I guess I'm really fired up for this quote because

I've had it on for like a couple weeks and then I just keep changing it. But this is now the time that

I need to like just talk about it. Especially, you know, today's the 20th.

We're going into a fully fresh year.

And this is something that I've been trying to implement for like years and years.

So anyways, my quote for this week is just whether you meditate or simply take a walk

outside in nature, find a daily practice that allows you to take time to unfocus, to just

be and let go of stress regularly

giving your mind support and noticing the way it benefits your body will nourish your spirit

to its fullest form of expression and obviously that's quite a big one that is pretty deep here

but someone had shared it on instagram and i thought it was like pretty pretty cool because i'll

always try even if there's like a day where i don't actually do my full on meditation like my Wimhoff breathing even this morning I went for a 30 minute walk by the water with my dog and you know I did actually meditate afterwards but I just spent a lot of time just focusing on trying to be present and I think just taking a walk and we always talk about being in nature and just breathing and all that other stuff is just so so important. I think like, you know, once again, going back to everyone's fitness journey is just so many people are focused on just lifting as much as they possibly can and, you know, just this stuff isn't talked about enough. And that's why I always like to go back and circle back to it every couple weeks or every couple months with like all the new listeners we get just to kind of give you a reminder like spend some time unfocus or you know not even unfocused but

just like be present breathe you know um think all that other stuff it goes a long way just in terms

of helping us with stress relief and more and more stress relief will help us with our fitness journey

and help us become fit or healthier and happier overall yeah i swear legit swear legit, like walking is the best medicine in the world. I like it just, it adjusts me. You know, anytime I feel tired, I don't feel right, my headspace is in there. Just being on a walk, doing that light movement, you know, getting some blood flow in the body, breathing in some fresh air, potentially having some sun or even if it's rain or snow.

Like spending that time outside is just so immensely valuable. And it just, it always resets me. It refocuses me. It gets me fired up. And it's just, it's a great tool. So I think this was a really great quote because it's so easy like I always talk about, you know, to wake up, spend some time in your house, you know, jump right in your car immediately, you know, park as close as you can to your
