How Intentional Personal Growth Affected My Habit Changes

Personal Growth

A Whole9 guest post by Kate Galliett, creator of Fit for Real Life and The Unbreakable Body, an online strength and mobility program If you want to create a habit change in your life that sticks, one crucial element is the belief that you can do it.  But what is “believing in yourself”? You can’t measure it. You can’t see it. There aren’t foods or supplements that give you more of it. Evolving your Self, or ‘personal growth’ as it’s called as one of the 9 factors here at Whole9, is virtually … [Read more...]

From Exhaustion to Energy with Whole9life

Personal Growth at Whole9life.com

Whole9 guest post by Hala Saleh, an entrepreneur who changed her life by starting with the food on her plate... and then continued experiencing the benefits of lifestyle improvement with our 9 factors. In the summer of 2011, I had my second child. As with my first bundle of joy, I was immediately smitten, infatuated, and wrapped around his perfect, tiny little pinky finger. Over the next few weeks, I wanted to spend every waking moment with my angel, and could think of nothing else but the … [Read more...]

When “Healthy” Habits Aren’t

healthy habits at Whole9life.com

A Whole9 guest post by Kate Galliett, creator of Fit for Real Life and The Unbreakable Body, an online strength and mobility program “I got up at 4:30 this morning to get my training in.” “Big week! I’m training 20 hours!” “My knee usually only aches for the first 15 minutes or so, then it goes away.” How do you perceive these statements? Are they a sign of a committed individual? Are they statements only a professional athlete being paid to put their body on the line would … [Read more...]

Create Long-Term, Sustainable Behaviour Change with a Positive Feedback Loop

sustainable behavior change

A Whole9 guest post by James Murphy, amateur-adventurer and curious thinker, currently living in New Zealand. Thinking about the future can motivate you to creatively imagine who you can become. You get to choose.  This gives you a chance to try new things, declare new goals, and change your life. It’s inspiring. Often when we do this, we come up with something big, something hard to achieve. Losing 10kg, deadlifting 3x our bodyweight, running a marathon, or changing the world. When we … [Read more...]

whole9 things learned

We founded Whole9 in 2009 and created the 9 factors as a way to incorporate a holistic approach into our lifestyle consulting practice.

How to keep your self-esteem and stay sane in a world obsessed with image

self esteem

by Anastasia Boulais of Whole9 South Pacific It's an open secret that most people around us are insecure about their looks in one way or another. 8 out of 10 women are reportedly dissatisfied with their body. More than half of the girls aged 12 to 14 wear makeup most days and 17% refuse to leave the house without it. 80% of 10 year old girls have dieted at least once in an attempt to get thinner. There is a misconception that your image anxiety (or as I prefer to call it, "selfie … [Read more...]

At-home fermentation (no science degree required)

fermentation

Fermented foods like sauerkraut and kombucha are trendy right now, but unlike the oh-so-popular cronut, they're trendy for their extensive health-promoting properties. You've probably heard of probiotics—they are healthy bacteria that help our digestive tracts and keep us healthy. But what you may not know is that fermented foods sitting on a grocery store shelf may not contain many (if any) of those good little critters. Want to be sure your fermented foods are fresh, delicious, and … [Read more...]

Detox: why it matters and what to do about it

detox questions functional medicine

Note from Dallas Hartwig, co-founder of Whole9: You probably know we don't promote these kinds of online "summits" very often. However, we feel this area is really under-addressed in our community, and based on my own functional medicine practice and the Institute for Functional Medicine's advanced practice training that I'm participating in, I feel the information included in this free summit will be invaluable for those pursuing a Whole9 Life. A lot of people write off "detox" as woo-woo … [Read more...]

This Article Sucks (Can You Go Just One Day Without Complaining?)

complaining habit help

At the beginning of the year, Melissa Hartwig got wind of a “no complaining” challenge circulating on her social media feed. The rules were simple enough—no complaining of any sort for a full thirty days. No “traffic was brutal today,” or “My boss is a jerk,” or “I look fat in these pants.” Just a month full of sunshine, ponies, and rainbows coming out of her mouth. (Well, not likely—but she hoped she’d at least learn to create a new way to process and deal with stress and trying … [Read more...]

The Dangers of Image Crafting

If you’re on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or any other form of social media, you’re already all too familiar with “image crafting,” the act of carefully and deliberately constructing one’s social media content to control the way others view their life. Perhaps you’ve even fallen prey to the pressure yourself, un-tagging unflattering photos of yourself on Facebook, publicly praising every nice thing your spouse does, or adding #lovemylife to every. Single. Post. As a result, our social media … [Read more...]
