Message in a Book

The messages we find in books are endless and powerful. I shared some of my favorites last week in the FIERCE Connection as part of "Book Week" for our new morning intentions practice.

I received loads of texts and comments from those who were touched by these book messages; and, many of you ordered these books to add to your home library!

So, I wanted to share these book messages with everyone here so that you too can enjoy the nuggets in these written gems and use them as a guide to help us through the strange and challenging time we are all experiencing right now.

Thanks to FIERCE Rockstar, Karen Kelly, we've been setting our intentions together every morning, Mon-Fri, at 8am in our FIERCE Connection Facebook Group since Wednesday, 3/25/2020.

I absolutely LOVE this practice and have found it...

Possibility, a Don't List, & Reconnecting

Uncategorized Apr 14, 2020

Good Morning Derith,

I hope this note finds you and your healthy, well, and happy!

Possibility, a Don't List, & Reconnecting... that's what I want to talk about today because 3 other ideas keep popping up in conversation:

Positivity, Doing, & Reinventing.

In the 60 second video below, I share how I am flipping these concepts to keep us motivated in these strange & unchartered times.

Flip #1: Positivity vs Possibility

Right now here's an underlying pressure to put on our "positive pants" . While it is helpful to look at the bright side of life, it is 100% absolutely ok and necessary to feel all emotions, even the negative ones and recognize that feeling through this instead resisting it will help us move forward.

When we flip to "possibility" instead, it allows to see what is possible right now in the midst of negative thoughts. Ask...

fierce habits recipes Apr 07, 2020

Workouts, Tiger King, & Books, Oh My!

These (and a few others) are my favorite things that are keeping me sane right now. I'm sharing my current go-tos in the hopes it sparks some ideas on how to tap in to what feels good for so we can begin to release the rest.

Enjoy,

First up: FOOD! That's definitely been a go-to for me and while the first few days (ok, the first week) felt like a free-for-all, I have pulled in the reins. I love trying out new recipes for dinners each week and enjoy exploring healthier versions of yummy treats. My favorites so far are Black Bean Enchiladas, Grilled Avocado Chicken, Almond Berry Muffins, and No-Bake Energy Bites.

An Easy Way to Build a Routine

fierce habits routine Mar 24, 2020

Routines...remember those things, Derith?!

Yeah, they can definitely feel like a thing of the past these days as we find ourselves in a place that is anything but routine.

I know, I know... the temptation to stay up late, sleep in, skip workouts, and eat just because we have access to food all day, is strong! Leaning in to this temptation for the short term can feel good, even therapeutic but as

So, where do we start? How do we create a routine, a schedule, anything that resembles some structure and/or normalcy?

We. Start. Small.

A routine is simply a set of good habits we develop as a daily practice. It is about creating a system that works for you in your current season of life. And, it is a practice, meaning there is plenty of room for trial and error.

Let's begin.

Set Bedtime/Wakeup Times
- This is where it all begins
- Go to bed & wake-up at roughly the same time everyday
- Allow some flex on weekends but otherwise keep it...

Natural Ways to Boost Immunity & Reduce Stress

Uncategorized Mar 17, 2020

Good Morning, Aileena!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day! Are you wearing green?

Speaking of "green"... today we're talking about natural ways to boost your immunity and reduce stress which both include green: eating greens like kale, broccoli, and cabbage, and getting outside in nature!

I'm sharing more ideas than that below but if you remember nothing else from this email, then remember green: eat it, drink it, and live in it!

Our immune system is our defense against infection and attacks germs to keep us healthy. If there was ever a time to buckle down on our immunity and do everything we can to boost it up, it is now.

So, let's get this defense going!

Natural (and easy) Ways to Boost Immunity:

Nourish Your Body
- Feed your body with nutrient-dense food
- Citrus fruits, kiwi, red and green peppers, broccoli, strawberries, almonds, sunflower seeds, oysters, baked beans, cashews, chickpeas, carrots, mango, papaya, oily fish, flaxseed,...

Spring C.L.E.A.N. ` Home, Body & Mind

Uncategorized Feb 18, 2020

Hellooooo March!

It's heeeeerrrrrreeeeee!

Even though the first official day of spring isn't until March 19th, you already might be feeling the urge to pull out those rubber gloves, roll up your sleeves, and give your home a good top to bottom scrubbing.

And why not? Clearing out the clutter helps us prepare to enjoy the warm (and hopefully productive) months to come; and decluttering always feels good.

Well, this new year, 2020, is a also the start of a new decade and a FANTASTIC opportunity to do things a little differently to get us closer to that zen state we are seeking.

"What do we do differently?" you ask. Well, we're going to spring clean not only our homes but our bodies and minds and "then some" too!

And, to make it easy, we're using the acronym C.L.E.A.N. for each category so you can immediately put these into fierce action baby!

Here we go! Check it out below!

"Who's got time for that?"

Yup, I think we've all said that at some time or another when it comes to something we would like to do but don't have enough time to do it...

So, I have put together several 5-minute time hacks to help you incorporate healthy habits into your busy days as quickly as possible.

Make it happen!

It's the last Tuesday in January for 2020 and this is one of those times of year when our to-do list feels a mile long, we are overwhelmed and we wonder how we're going to get it all done.

fierce planning ahead time management Jan 26, 2020

Yesterday was the 20th day of 2020! Ba-Boom! I love the sound of that and thought it was the ideal time to share the 20 minute secret for a stellar 2020... which you can do every single day in the simplest of ways!

What's the secret???

I shared a quick coaching session about this in a video last night that you can watch below, and I also wanted to give you a quick rundown so you can get started today!

The secret to having stellar days, weeks, and months that turn into a stellar year is to start your morning the night before!

Yup, that's it! I know, I know... not the sexiest answer, and perhaps one you've heard before; but it IS the practical and actionable answer that will help propel you forward fast!

Setting aside 20 minutes each night to get started on tomorrow allows you to go to bed feeling relaxed, reduces the number of decisions you need to make in the morning, and creates a calmer start to your day!
