Day One to a Body You Love


So, yesterday I posted, "twelve days to a body you love" would start today. I received some comments asking exactly how I was going to help you lose weight in twelve days, lose baby weight in twelve days, etc.

Well, let me be clear. This is not twelve quick and dirty tips to lose weight fast. I said, "Twelve days to a body you love." Big difference. There is no quick fix and fad diets don't work. Living a life in a body you love is a lifestyle change. Lifestyles last longer than fad diets because lifestyle changes are usually healthy habits that you introduce for the rest of your life. The next eleven days will include easy lifestyle changes you can make in order to live a life in a body you love.

Creating a body you love involves introducing some critical healthy habits. They may include physical, emotional, mental and spiritual habits. The first habit that I think is critical is appreciation for the body you currently have. Do you appreciate the body you currently have or do you beat it up consciously or unconsciously for what it's not or what it can't do?

When you look in the mirror do you think, "wow I look great today" or do you think "Ugh, I hate my thighs.", "How do I get rid of these jiggly arms?", "I wish my stomach was flatter." or "I'm so fat."

When you constantly beat your body up for everything it's not that's exactly what you'll get. Thoughts become things. In order to live a life in a body you love, you have to appreciate the body you have. Your heart beats and pumps blood throughout your body without you having to do anything. Your lungs exchange oxygen through all your cells without you having to do anything. Regardless of what you put into your body, it knows what to do with it and get all the stuff it doesn't need out. Isn't that INCREDIBLE?! I think so.

Ever wonder why women...and men who get plastic surgery for one thing, keep going back for more? Why are they never satisfied? Because they never learned to appreciate their bodies current beauty and strength. They see flaws as a bad thing rather than something that makes them unique.

Thank your body for the amazing, miraculous things that it does day in and day out. When you learn to appreciate what you currently have in any aspect of your life, only more of those things can come to you.

So, I challenge you to start becoming aware about the things you say to yourself about your body. I challenge you to give your body gratitude for all the wonderful things it can do, has done and what it currently looks like. Only then will you appreciate what it will be once you implement what I'm going to share with you over the next few days.

Love and light,
Aliza

Excuses Be Gone...Write on!

I've been wanting to put more up on my blog, but just don't know what to blog about. Yes, I'm a Personal Trainer and Fitness Instructor, but that part of my brain has been shut off since I went on maternity leave on March 10th.

Now, I'm ready to get back to what I do best. Don't get me wrong, I'm a very good mum, but I'm also a good Personal Trainer and a REALLY good Fitness Instructor, just ask the people that come to my classes.
I can come up with as many excuses as I want, but the truth is I'm insecure about my writing skills. I've always had bad grammar. I write the way I speak, I don't edit my work and I don't have a very distinct written voice. I've always admired people like Lisa Mackay(http://www.wickednweird.blogspot.com/) and Liz Parker(http://www.lizpr.com/) or my good friend Karen Lin (www.karenokelive.com) who's words fall like lyrics on the page. Their words inspire, motivate, make you laugh and move you to action. I've never been able to write like that. How does one find their written voice?


So, what I've decided to do is focus on the things I do well. So, I don't have a distinct written voice, but I can give 30 plus people in one of my classes or one-on-one clients the best 60 minutes of their day. I'm much more effective in person than I am on the written page. Does this mean that I quit my blog? Hell to the no! I'm going to keep going, bad grammar and all.

I may not be able to move you to tears with my words, but you'll definitely be crying after one of my classes. They may be tears of joy for the body we've co-created. They may be tears of pain from being sore. Either way, they both have a pay off.

See you soon in a class near you.

See this testimony on it from a top Aesthetician.
The Perfect Lift Firming Mask, as an Aesthetician I have never seen a mask that does so much for the skin. What I love about it is that it gives us Instant Gratification! Taking 10 years off of your face and decollete in minutes! This restorative Aloe Vera based mask contains Sweet Almond Extract which is a lifting protein that relieves itchiness and blotchiness in the skin. Ivy extract tightens and tones as it increases circulation. Nigra Flower extract decongests the skin to create a firming effect and it has Arnica Montana Flower extract to work as an antibiotic, anti-inflammatory pain reliever to reduce tissue trauma to aid in healing and works wonders on dark circles. Pellitory Extract and Irish Moss draw out toxins and act as an anti-coagulant and vasodilator to repair blood vessels. Soy proteins infuse vitamins and minerals into the skin to repair the lipid barrier function. Mallow and Cucumber Extract calm, sooth and hydrate the epidermal layers, while Urea helps to exfoliate and allows for products to penetrate further into the skin and Titanium Dioxide naturally works to retard the effects of photo damage.

Lululemon Tamed My Ta Tas

One of the best parts about my job as a Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer is my relationship with Lululemon as the Ambassador for the Square One location in Mississauga.

As an Ambassador, not only do I teach IntenSati in the store and at community events, but I also get to give them my feedback about their clothing and how to make it better.

There has never been a better time for me than now to give them my feedback as my belly and other parts started to enlarge and expand and share it with you.

The one and only thing I was nervous about when I got pregnant was maintaining my fashion sense both in the gym and out as well as pre and post-pregnancy. Because of my physique, I'm not afraid to show off my body. So, fitted tops and flattering pants are a must. I also don't want to spend a fortune on maternity clothes if I'm not going to have another baby in few years.

Last . They not only look great now, but they'll look great once he/she chooses to grace us with his/her presence.

The Be Still Pant
They pants are incredible and feel like pyjamas, but don't look it. They can be worn slighly dress depending on what top you wear. Wear them low rise or high on the hip and if you're like me, you can fold down the top and and they still look great. These pants flatter any body shape.

The Ta Ta Tamer
This is a miracle bra! there are a lot of sport bras out there that can turn your ta tas into sausage rolls. This bra tames your girls without smooshing them down. Great for B+ to D(ish) cups. The cups are removable, the straps adjustable with a crossover option and the lycra is high for maximum support.

Freedom Batwing Tee
Nothing feels better after a workout like a 100% pima cotton t-shirt. This tee is great in the yoga studio, coffee with the girls or dinner out. Loose up top and fitted on the bottay, this tee is great for any figure. It's also preshrunk - no surprises after washing. Oh, I forgot...it's a great tee to wear when you're going out for Chinese buffet. Let your belly hang.

Persistance Tank
The ideal shelfless tank to wear over a full support bra. It goes perfect with the Ta Ta Tamer bra. Change the look of this tank with adjustable strap width for custom coverage. It skims the torso and has longer length. A drawcord at the hem prevents the top from riding up and looks great no matter what's going on with your belly.

The Power Y Tank
This longer tank is perfect for layering. The built in mesh bra has room for padding and ultimate breathability. The racerback allows for full range of motion. This tank looks amazing under the Bat Wing Tee and comes in a multitude of colours.
Stay tuned for more great items from Lululemon.
