Use teachers and courses to help overcome the obstacles you face in activities
Therefore, to achieve your dream life, you need to ACT
- Activities: make up your life
- Courses: help you with activities
- Teachers: help you with activities and courses
Lifestyle education involves learning how to get from where you are in life to where you want to be. It involves using teachers and educational resources to overcome any obstacles on the way by developing your life skills.
to help you on your journey, I provide courses to get you started and introduce you to teachers I wish I had at the start of my journey.
Another way to consider the ACT approach is as the theory and practice of lifelong learning
- Activities: The daily practice of life
- Courses: The theory underpinning daily practice
- Teachers: help you to turn theory into best practice
Self-development, therefore, requires that you follow the same path as all others who have achieved their potential by making the best of what you have by putting in the effort and study necessary to achieve your potential.
Health and wellness reflect a life well lived, which means avoiding injuries. Being active protects against the ten biggest illnesses in modern life. Reducing inactive, sedentary behaviour reduces the associated injuries of this lifestyle. It strengthens and protects against them. That’s why health and wellness require you to act.
Your day is made up of activities. Teachers can show you how to use these activities to get what you want out of life.
Courses sit in the middle. Made by teachers, they help you get the most out of activities and set your life up for success.
To give you an example. If you want to improve your vision, you could go on a sightseeing trip or watch some sport. May be go for a drive. You can check out the vision section for more ideas.
If you want to lose weight or get fit, then you want to be more active, to find the activity that fits you, you can ask yourself questions such as;
- How active do you want/need to be?
- How much time do you have?
- What activities do you like? Tennis, gardening, walking
The general idea is that the activities can be tagged with the benefits they provide, such as vision, nutrition, or steps, and linked to useful courses.
Fit2Thrive is all about taking each moment and each day as an opportunity to learn and to grow. The how it works page provides a place to start and aks yourself the question
What do you want to learn about today?
Life is made up of activities you have to do and the ones you want to do.
A successful life involves using the activities you HAVE to do to be able to do the activities you WANT to do.
First things first, you should log the activities in your life. And those you want to do. Order your life properly to do these activities better.
The idea is to do more with each activity as you learn more about how you work and use activities to achieve your needs.
The secret is to organise these activities properly to fit your life.
Maximise the impact of each to get the right balance.
Teachers share their expertise, and courses systematically guide you through specific paths.
I use Age-old principles to achieve a balanced lifestyle in the modern world. These principles include:
- Goal setting: Set the right goals (holidays and fun things to focus on living and thriving)
- Proper order: Order activities appropriately through project management skills.
- Self-love: Realise how complicated and well-made you are by learning a bit about how you work every day.
- Activity audit: What activities make up your life? Life is made up of activities, including walking, football, tennis, etc.
- Education: Education then comes from courses and teachers,
- Mould your life: and over time, you learn how to put all this together to mould the life you want
I am a lifestyle educator.
What is that? you ask
You know how everyone wants a life where each day life gets easier, with less pain, more time, working towards your dream life? I educate people on how to set their lives up for success and live the life they have dreamed of.
You make them rich? you say
Good question, no.
I make them happy and healthy, a different kind of rich. I help them love being themselves. I help them embrace who they are and the life they make for themselves.
A problem-solving mindset is a growth mindset. I cannot fix your health, only you can do that in the same way no one but me could fix my own health. What I can do is help you learn about how you work so that you can solve your problems.
In the balance and moments sections we explore the effects of activities on a human. We then consider various parts of the body and learn how these are affected by activity and how to help them recover and restore balance..
We explore the impact of time beginning with Moments in a day, which is a way of simplifying the analysis to a momentary snapshot. Learning the impact of a split second. We then consider the impact of a few different types of day
At Fit2Thrive, I care deeply about understanding human nature in order to achieve the best life possible. By understanding human nature, I can develop solutions that work with our nature instead of against it. This has been a long and complicated journey because human beings, like everything else on Earth, is made of stardust and thus made from the elements of the universe itself.
Humans are a way for the universe to know itself
Carl Sagan
The wide-ranging topics on Fit2Thrive represent the wide-ranging journey I have taken and the discoveries I have made. Everything is connected, yet we all see the same things in different ways.
What brings this all together is homeostasis, the natural processes our cells use to bring balance to the body and keep the fires of life burning.
All life is incredibly well adapted to finding balance using homeostatic mechanisms to thrive through the challenges of life. Those who achieve amazing things, are unknowingly using homeostasis to maintain balance under intense pressure.
Every activity is linked to other activities. Everything in our lives is linked to everything else. It is hard to understand at first, but shopping affects our metabolism, weight, and emotions. As we learn more about these connections through activities themselves, then we start to understand how we can layer our life for the best results
This is why learning about our nature is so important and why we should commit to investing in this knowledge for the rest of our lives
Each activity has strengths and weaknesses. Walking adds something and misses others. It’s not HIIT; it’s LIIT. That’s its strength. You need a variety of activities to achieve full balance.
That is what my courses show. The variety of activities provides better balance than the same activities. The order of the activities can matter. Sometimes you need to change the activity, other times you adapt the activity to you, or you adapt yourself to the activity. Either way you’re looking for balance
The health and life you enjoy is the result of the impact this all has on individual cells and the whole system
