Wellness Wednesdays: Bloodwork Updates, FitIndex Weigh-In Results, Sleep Improvement App, Meditation Myths | #9

Note: We had some connectivity issues during this live broadcast so the audio will sound a bit choppy at times. We are working to ensure that our next episode returns to its normal quality.

Here's what I'll be covering in this episode:

1. Mindful Moment - I guide us through 5 rounds of deep breathing and an awareness practice to redefine our relationship with our thoughts.

2. Mindful Reflection - I answered last week's question from the Balance Period Newsletter: "What is something I am holding onto that I need to let go of?"

3. Check-In - I share some updates on what next steps I am taking after reviewing my InsideTracker data with my primary care physician. I also discuss some of the sleep trends I notice in the data I received from my Weekly WHOOP Performance Assessment. I then talk about what shifts I noticed in my monthly FitIndex weigh-in. Here are some measured metrics: body weight, BMI, body fat, subcutaneous fat, visceral fat, body water, skeletal muscle, muscle mass, protein, and metabolic age.

4. System Updates - I share an app that can be used to create an evening routine, without a wearable device, and help improve your quality of sleep called ZenSleep.

5. Resource Review - I share the featured article from the Balance Period Newsletter: Meditation Facts - Why You Don't Have to Clear Your Mind, and highlight some of the common misconceptions associated with practicing meditation.

Intention: My desire is to create a space where we learn, grow, and create generational wellness together. If you have any questions you would like answered on the show, drop them in the comment section below 👇🏾

Remember to be patient with yourself, and kind to yourself because you don't have to be perfect to be great 🙏🏾
