Happy New Year, friends!
I really enjoy listening to podcasts, one of which is NPR's Pop Culture Happy Hour. Surprising, I know but last year around this time I was invested in gaining all the knowledge I could to help the trivia team I was a part of and pop culture was a place we were lacking. Why I mention this is, on this particular podcast they publicly make predictions and personal resolutions for the coming year and then revisit them a year later during the week of the New Year. Needless to say, most of the predictions and resolutions for 2020 did not come true and it was quite humorous to hear what the hosts thought the promise of 2020 could bring in comparison to the grim reality of what is/was.
If nothing else, 2020 has taught us that we really don't know what's around the next corner and while we strive for control, stability, and predictability sometimes all we can do is surrender and embrace the gifts of the present moment.
I'd like to invite you to sit with the strength you've acquired from the disruption to your sense of normalcy and stability over the last year. Disease festers in places of stagnation and 2020 has most definitely shaken things up personally, nationally, and globally. While we are still in the heart of the messy, next comes the healing and finally gratitude as the light begins to enter the dark night of our collective soul.
Cheers to 2021 and the appreciation of the present moment, the light that has exposed our places of stagnation and disease as well the hope of a journey into equality, love, and collective growth.
Blessings,
Jenn
I have 3 spots left for the January enrollment of the EMERGE 90-day program!
This is a program for the person who needs to hit the refresh button. Who struggles with low moods, numbing behaviors and has trouble staying consistent with healthy habits. What may be no one has told you before is that it's not your fault, and it's not a lack of discipline.
"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."
- Albert Einstein
Lasting behavioral change will not stick until you dig deep and unravel the patterns that have kept you on the hamster wheel. In this program, we address the nervous system that is informing you to stay safe when there is no visible threat, your out of balance gut that is causing joint pain, brain fog, unsettled tummy issues, and a body that is stiff, sluggish, and feels weighted down.
My course focuses on 3 main pillars:
1.Building mental strength - because life happens. The good, the bad, and the busy.
2. Eating Happy - 95% of 5-HT (Serotonin - your happy neurotransmitter) is produced in your gut, so let's bring it back into balance!
3. A movement practice to unravel and reform from past stories to greater vitality.
This is an action-based course that includes educational videos and practices, a meal plan we design together that will support gut health and lower systemic inflammation in the body, as well as guided meditations, bodywork, strengthening, and toning for all-over wellness. Most importantly, there are weekly check-ins via Zoom for connection, support, and accountability.
This program will make you feel better while you're in it. But what's different about this one is the skills you learn here will transform your behaviors and offer you a profound sense of gratitude for the body you have been gifted.
I would love to answer any questions you may have about the program. Let's set up a time to chat. Email me at jenniferlynn.kern@gmail.com
Our first group meeting is Monday, January 4th.
The program is the discounted price of $365 through midnight on the first. If you're looking to start out 2021 on a new foot, this program might be right for you.
