Over the last year, I’ve had the honor of getting to know the incredible on a deep level! Seeing her absolutely CRUSH her show at The Fillmore last week was such a proud moment. She is truly amazing 👊

So proud of what she’s accomplished - not just with her career - but with her inner work, personal growth and commitment to herself and prioritizing her health!

Proud of you Lauren! 🙏

Proud to celebrate 100 episodes of The True Health Podcast! ✨

Over the last several years, this show has not only had listeners in 40 countries and reached many people, but more importantly, it has been a vehicle for discovery, reflection and personal growth for others and for myself.

Feel grateful for the countless amazing guests who have shared their wisdom and personal stories, and for everyone who has listened.

For Ep 100, the tables turned and I was the guest for the first time, in conversation with my dear friend and yoga/spiritual guide for many, David McGuire. The conversation is a time stamp on current inner work, self-acceptance, past reflections and current goals.

Enjoy,
Ethan ✨

“Most of us live with the belief that we come from the past... and we’re stopping through the present.. on our way to the future. But the future is imagined, and the past is only a memory. The only thing that actually, definitely exists, is this exact moment.”

This was a quote from Howard (“Howie”) Cohn, and a glimpse into what I, along with nearly 100 people, worked through for the last week at Spirit Rock.

It’s impossible to put words to what this experience was like. Anything I write or say diminishes it, honestly.

But this episode answers the question so many have asked since I returned - “how was the retreat?”

For many people (…and nearly ALL who have culturally been pummeled with messaging around extreme dieting or excessive workout routines…) stress is often a huge element of health we ignore, in pursuit of chasing a goal or body type that is unnatural and actually unhealthy!

But what if the stress from over-thinking your eating decisions is worse than the food you’re over-thinking?!

If you struggle with obsessive calorie counting, have chronically yo-yo dieted with an “all or nothing” mindset, or over exercise based on what you ate… you might be focusing on the wrong health pillar 🤔

Improving stress is often linked to things like longevity, disease prevention and aging, which is all true.. but also.. it will improve your present self and day-to-day experience moving through the world, too 🙌

If you’re curious to explore the stress-eating connection and a more integrated approach to food, movement, body and self, reach out!

This is a prompt I often explore with health coaching clients and retreat participants who struggle with obsessive or simply over-thinking tendencies with food.

For many people (…and nearly ALL people who have culturally been pummeled with messaging around extreme dieting or excessive workout routines…) stress is often a huge element of health we ignore, in pursuit of chasing a goal or body type that is unnatural and actually unhealthy!

If you struggle with obsessive calorie counting of simply not listening to the natural hungry cues your body is telling you, you might be focusing on the wrong pillar of your health 🤔

Stress can be a massive core factor for a variety of things from inflammation to disease, physical pain to gut health challenges, and shouldn’t be overlooked!

Finishing up a two week trip to Japan, with so many reflections. One of them is how gentle the approach to movement is here - and how correlated it is to not just longevity for the future, but happiness in the present.

I preach this constantly, sometimes maybe too much 😅 but the best workout plan is the one that you enjoy. Consistency over intensity. And enjoyment in your life and routine is better than beating yourself up to chase some future version of yourself - because you actually are enough right now, even if you want to develop or work on parts of yourself.

❤️
