Mindsip insights from this episode:
Prioritize protein in your first meal to stabilize blood sugar
Avoid blood glucose spikes and stay full longer by prioritizing protein with your first meal of the day.
Interrupt old narratives to successfully change habits
Successfully changing your habits is not about achieving perfection, but about interrupting the old narrative and replacing it with hope.
Engage in joyful activities to enhance stress resilience
Doing things you love for fun is not a luxury; it's a biological process that helps make you more resilient to stress.
Use red light in evening to enhance sleep quality
To improve sleep signaling, change your evening lighting by using a red light bulb in your living room an hour before bed.
Hydrate first thing with water and electrolytes
Upon waking, hydrate first thing in the morning with two glasses of water, adding some salt or electrolytes to it.
Incorporate five-minute kitchen workout into morning routine
Incorporate a five-minute 'movement snack,' like squats or stretches, into your morning routine while waiting for your coffee or tea to brew.
Prioritize biological alignment over productivity hacks
The goal of a reset is not productivity, but biological alignment, recognizing that you cannot separate the body and mind.
Prioritize small daily actions to build momentum for change
Small, daily actions are more important for long-term change than motivation or willpower because they build achievable momentum.
Combat microstressosis to reclaim energy and joy
Tiny daily hits of stress, like phone notifications and skipped meals, accumulate over time and quietly rob you of your energy and joy.
