Many of us have been guilty of focusing on the external rewards of exercise such as looking good, or muscular or the ability to wear a tight fitting pair of jeans. One of the most important and often overlooked aspects of the exercise payoff are the emotional rewards.
I work with clients who suffer from low self esteem and simply can’t imagine making physical and emotional changes via exercise. They are stuck in a mindset or holding pattern that blocks them from moving forward. My job is to coach them to achieve their goals. I also work with clients who suffer from depression. Over time their mood has improved just because they exercise regularly. One client experienced a powerful internal transformation when she discovered her physical strength, she tapped into her emotional strength.
This year exercise has helped me cope with a crisis that was the worst that I have ever experienced in my life. I was able to see the stuff that I am made of – a solid and emotionally resilient foundation that is there when I need it!
