Imagine feeling younger, stronger, and more energized every day – without spending hours at the gym. At Essentrics®, we see habits as the connective tissue that holds our lives together, much like fascia binds all the muscles, organs, bones, and joints in our body. Habits are the daily actions we take to achieve our goals.
Miranda’s mission is to show us that with each passing year, we have a choice – we can grow older, or we can grow younger! The secret to success is to set a goal to make movement a daily habit.
Why Daily Movement Matters as You Age
Daily movement is more than just exercise, it’s a foundation for better health and lasting youth. Whether you want to age gracefully, regain energy, or simply feel stronger, making movement a consistent part of your routine can transform your health and outlook on life.
Our Essentrics® roadmap is here to help you start the journey of achieving your health and fitness goals. We understand that creating a routine of daily movement that fits your lifestyle can be a challenge, but it’s truly worth it. That’s why we’re here to guide you in introducing daily movement into your life, impacting the many facets of your health and transforming your outlook on how you hope to live and grow in the future. By aligning your daily habit of a consistent Essentrics® practice into a routine that fits your lifestyle, you can steadily move toward a healthier, happier path to aging.
Our Essentrics® Road Map to Results
1. Create a Vision for Your Future
Visualize your ideal lifestyle – how do you want to age, feel, move, and live both now and in the future? Before your workout, visualize the results. Picture yourself standing taller, exuding confidence, or reclaiming abilities you may have lost. For example, can you see yourself moving with ease or feeling energized and strong? Visualization is a powerful tool. Most of us are visually oriented, and creating a clear image of your future self helps build a mental blueprint. When paired with consistent action, this vision strengthens neural connections and sets you on the path to making it a reality. Your vision will serve as your guiding light, helping you cultivate not just the life you desire, but the one that is completely yours to create.
2. Cultivate a Daily Habit
Habits live in the present – without daily habits like eating, sleeping, and working, we wouldn’t survive. By forming new habits, we aim to not just survive but thrive. Habits become second nature through repetition. When is the best time to exercise? Anytime you will do it! Work with your biorhythms to find the time of day when you enjoy exercising the most and are least likely to let it slide. Doing your exercises first thing in the morning will help you build a consistent habit. But if lunchtime is better, or an hour before bed works for you, go with that. The key is to commit to moving daily, no matter what. By building a supportive system for our habits to thrive and aligning them with what’s realistic in our daily lives, we take meaningful steps toward achieving a healthier and happier lifestyle.
3. Check-In with Yourself & Keep Going
Regularly assess your physical and emotional state and reflect on what’s working in your lifestyle. Reaffirm your commitment to yourself and revisit the vision you intended to create – especially in the moments when you feel you’ve dropped off. Give yourself and your body compassion and freedom as you work towards your new goals. Remember, cultivating lasting habits takes time. Exercising should feel natural, and the Essentrics® program will show you how exercise can feel both fun and joyful. Before long, you’ll find yourself enjoying exercise again and even looking forward to your next session.
4. Make Space for Joy & Track Your Progress
Your brain state is a reflection of your body state. Take time to enjoy the newfound sense of self you are creating. Reflect on what brings you joy and reconnect with the hobbies and activities that make you feel truly alive. This is a powerful way to stay motivated, allowing you to track progress based on how you feel, rather than just inches or statistics. Monitor key milestones such as increased energy, strength improvements, or physical changes that help you experience joy in your day-to-day life.
5. Integrate the Changes into Your Daily Mindset & Routine
Celebrate the positive changes – better energy, mood, and vitality. With each stretch and strengthening exercise, you’re rediscovering parts of your body you thought were lost to time. You’re not just working out – you’re evolving. Embrace the joy of your healthier, happier lifestyle, and let it inspire you to keep growing. Challenge yourself to bring a dose of movement into your life each and every day.
