Although food restriction has long been THE way to achieve certain (usually aesthetic) health goals, many coaches now avoid imposing strict food rules with clients. Often, that’s a good thing. Restriction and rigid rules around eating often elicit feelings of deprivation—and later, rebellion.

But that doesn’t mean “NO RULES EVER” is best.

If you want help finding the eating approach and habits that work best for YOU specifically, consider reaching out to me at @naturallysal on Instagram or at naturallysal.com where you could work one-on-one with me to reach your personal health and lifestyle goals and become the best version of YOU.

If there’s one thing that more than anything else will block us from experiencing our dream reality, it’s self-sabotage. On your journey to success, you’re going to notice that there’s different subconscious things you do that are in place to keep you safe, to keep you in the familiar zone of where you are. And if you start to get success and you start to get in an amazing relationship, begin seeing your health transform, etc., or you start to move away from what has been your base point, there are things that'll happen, that you will be subconsciously doing to sabotage yourself, to keep yourself in familiar territory.

Welcome back to the Naturally Sal Podcast! My name is Sal, I’m a registered holistic nutritionist, yoga instructor and social sciences student. On this podcast, I talk about all things mental, physical, emotional health and wellness. In this episode, I’m going to go over 5 ways to stop the cycle of self-sabotage instantly. Once you learn these 5 things and really come to practice them, you’ll begin to really transform your life on a more long-lasting, enduring level.
