Shownotes

In this episode of the Holiday Survival Podcast, Erin tackles the challenge of maintaining a health routine during the holiday frenzy. Recognizing the struggles faced—stress, time constraints, and tempting holiday treats—she invites Lauren Chante, a wellness strategist and advocate for post-pregnancy body sculpting, to share insights on staying on track with health goals during this season.

Lauren introduces herself as a wellness strategist passionate about helping action-taking wonder women sculpt beautiful bodies post-pregnancy. Her focus extends beyond just physical health, delving into emotional eating and holistic wellness.

Importance of Health Routines in the Holidays:

Lauren emphasizes that maintaining health goes beyond avoiding sickness or weight gain. Feeling vibrant in one's body fosters confidence, allowing individuals to pursue their passions, take risks, and tackle challenges with increased energy and enthusiasm.

Self-care as Giving Back to Yourself:

The conversation highlights the significance of self-care amidst the giving nature of the holiday season. Lauren emphasizes that self-care is not selfish; it's a way to nurture oneself, especially in times where external support may be lacking.

Challenges of Weight Management in the Holidays:

Lauren digs into the complexities of weight management during this festive time. She points out the flaws in traditional fitness and diet culture, advocating for a deeper understanding of one's relationship with food to initiate long-term changes.

Navigating Indulgences:

Rather than promoting strict diets, Lauren suggests a mindful approach. She encourages individuals to notice how certain foods make them feel and to explore their relationship with food without judgment.

Rethinking "Cheat Days":

The term "cheat day" carries a negative connotation, perpetuating guilt around enjoying food. Lauren challenges this language, advocating for a balanced approach to eating without attaching shame or negativity.

Energy-Boosting Foods:

Discussing the exhaustion many face during this busy period, Lauren suggests assessing caffeine intake and identifying individual energy-boosting foods or supplements tailored to unique physiological needs.
