Another year, another milestone, another opportunity to reflect back on our growth and prepare for the next run for greatness. Realize This: It doesn’t matter what day of the year it is. You still have to show up to the greatest version of yourself day in and day out. To keep making quality decisions in any situation and to continuously improve yourself. Realize this as well: Do. Or do not. There is no 'TRY' Realize that once you’ve decided to do something, to start something, to create something, then you either make it happen or you quit it. There’s no point in doing stuff that you’re not going to complete. At the same time, you have to remain open to the possibility that you're doing the wrong thing and that you need to change your approach. That's the topic of this Body Mind Empowerment Podcast with Siim Land. It's the last one for the year 2017! Topics discussed: The ONE THING you can always be sure of Why you need to be careful with what you believe in How to set goals based on reality of the situation Are you insane in the head?

Life is a process of stress adaptation. Living organisms adapt to the conditions of their environment and those of natural selection. Being able to adapt to stress has been one of the main driving forces of our success as a species.We can eat a wide variety of foods, we can live in many different landscapes and we can become more resilient to these harsh conditions Unfortunately, the modern world doesn't condition us the same way it used to, as there's a massive evolutionary time lag between our primal bodies and the abundance we're living in "The stress that can kill you can also heal you", said Ori Hofmekler the author of The Warrior Diet and many other booksOri Hofmekler intermittent fasting was one of the first IF practices in the modern health industry I'm super excited to have Ori on the Body Mind Empowerment Podcast with Siim Land We're going to talk about What made Ori write The Warrior Diet The 7 Principles of Stress How the fitness industry is slowly killing people The most powerful hormonal switches of your body What are the biological mechanisms of stress adaptation How to take advantage of stress rather than falling victim to stress What are stress activated foods And much more To support this podcast, then I'd appreciate if you could leave us a review on iTunes and follow me on social media.

Decisions, Decisions...So many decisions to make, so little time to make them... Welcome to the Body Mind Empowerment podcast. I’m your host Siim Land. Today I want to talk about making quality decisions because the quality of your decisions determine the results you’re going to get and how successful you’re going to be. The most important thing I want you to remember right now and I’m going to repeat it later again is this - *sigh* The quality of your decisions depends upon your level of awareness. I started thinking about what determines your present state of consciousness and perspective and I came to the conclusion that it’s a 5 stage cycle that repeats itself and every step is connected to each other. That's what we'll be talking in this episode What determines quality decision making? How to raise your awareness to make quality decisions most of the time? What's the 5 stage decision-making cycle? How to create quality systems for quality decision-making? How to make good decisions on autopilot? And much more...

How are you dealing with the challenges and impediments of your life? Do you crumble after reaching the wall or will you climb over it, making your failures but mere stepping stones for your successes?   That’s the theme of Ryan Holiday’s book The Obstacle is the Way The Timeless Art of Turning Trials Into Triumph. The main idea of the book [Ryan Holiday's] is that obstacles don’t stop success but actually create it. That doesn’t go to say that failures and impediments won’t cut you down – they will if you give into them. It all depends on how you perceive your situation and how you CHOOSE to respond to it.   To support this podcast, then I'd appreciate if you could leave us a review on iTunes and follow me on social media.
