S9Ep1 - The Mental Health Series: OverComing Negativity

<p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Gillian and Sarah Shanahan, Barbell Logic’s Registered Dietician, join Niki to discuss how to build healthy relationships and mindsets around food, training, ourselves, and others to ultimately overcome negativity.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Check out Dr. David Puder’s podcast here: </span> <a href= "https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/</span></a><span style="font-weight: 300;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Too often people succumb to black and white thinking and negative, spiraling thoughts--e.g. this food is bad and I’m bad for eating it.  We find ourselves overcome with negative thoughts and focused on past failures and mistakes.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">We’ve got to build structure and routines and habits to ensure we move toward our goals.  We need to focus on the present and the current decisions we’re faced with, as opposed to staying obsessed with a recent mistake.  Finally, we’ve got to end thinking that taking care of ourselves is selfish--if we do something that helps ourselves and helps ourselves be better parents, employees, spouses, friends, etc., then it’s ultimately a good thing.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">GET STARTED with one-on-one online coaching FOR FREE!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Get your FIRST MONTH FREE on all strength and nutrition coaching plans.  No discount code needed and includes a 10-day, no obligation trial. </span> <a href="https://bit.ly/2MKeOoh"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">https://bit.ly/2MKeOoh</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Special offers from BLOC and our partners: </span> <a href= "https://barbell-logic.com/offers/"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">https://barbell-logic.com/offers/</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Connect with the hosts</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/re
