What can a simple cup of coffee teach us about staying motivated to move? Dr. Lisa Belanger has the answers. Lisa is the CEO of Conscious Works and author of A Cup of Mindfulness: For the Busy and Restless. Beyond Lisa's many career accomplishments, including running a national charity called the Knights Cabin, she's completed the Paris marathon and climbed Kilimanjaro. These days, under the COVID-19 travel restrictions, you will find her keeping up with a busy family life (well caffeinated) in the Canadian Rocky Mountains.

It's Valentine's Day. Yeesh... time to audit your relationship with fitness 6 weeks into 2020. Are you hanging in there? Has your motivation disappeared like that waxy heart-shaped box of bonbons? A heavy majority of fitness resolutions are now completely dead. That's the norm, but there's no need to walk away from physical activity completely. Let's take advantage of "love day" and reflect on where you're at and what you can do to reboot your routine if you're stuck in a rut.

Does staying discipline have to suck? No, but you'd never know if you'd look at how popular culture treats this important part of active living. This week, using a terrible bread analogy, I revisit the real meaning of self-discipline and how enjoyment can be the difference maker in your fitness pursuits.

Let's talk about laziness. Have we oversimplified this complex concept? Of course! I'll use examples from nature to make the point that we're still animals wired to see energy expenditure as precious, even risky. We all choose the path of least resistance, some more than others. But in the name of self-compassion, we need to give ourselves a break and stop beating ourselves up for being less active than we want. At the same time, we can overcome society's relentless pursuit of making exercise obsolete by being more mentally innovative. Spoiler: stronger willpower isn't the answer.

Play creates transcendent exercise experiences. In such "flow states", we're distracted from how working our bodies is so healthy. Why? We're too busy solving problems, collaborating with others, and even laughing as we go. This week, Dale Sidebottom from Fitness Games Zone (and host of the Energetic Education podcast) joins me to discuss how to bring play to the table. I also feature one of his creations, Daily Mission Cards, which have added some refreshing, creative variety to play time with my 4-year-old.

As the saying goes, “Nothing changes if you change nothing.” If you want to finally quit the grueling grind, jump off the struggle bus, and enjoy all the juicy mental and physical benefits of exercise, you’ll have to learn how to like it. That won’t magically happen on its own. So, let's engineer it. In this short episode, I list 9 steps for building a more enjoyable exercise routine:
1) Go Goalless
2) Reject "No Pain, No Gain"
3) Know Your "Type"
4) Try New Things
5) Attend to the Atmosphere
6) Bust up Binary Thinking
7) Manage Intensity Better
8) Monitor What Matters
9) Add Goals

True, the financial investment of a contractual agreement with a gym gives some people a spark, but is it a solid solution for you? This week, I ask you to honestly audit your fitness history to answer that question. I'll also get you pondering about life beyond the gym to build a routine that's more built to last. Stay tuned for the last Question of the Week of 2019. Happy New Year!

How well do you take care of the machine? This week, I dig down with philosophical mental performance coach, Dr. Jason Brooks, about the often neglected necessity of recovery.

Tune in for several practical tips on how you can better replenish energy stores to perform more optimally in the moments that matter.

A forced divorce from fitness via injury might not just be physically painful, but it can make us a mental mess too. This week, I chat with Dr. Shayne Young of Active Health Institute to learn about how he manages the "mental game" of rehab on the front lines. Listen as Dr. Young invokes several cases from elite sport (hockey, weight lifting, running) to teach us key lessons about one of the most challenging facets of active living.

Last week, I interviewed November Project co-founder Brogan Graham about the evolution of this fascinating free fitness movement. In the second half of my two part feature on November Project, I sit down with the happy leaders of its Ottawa chapter. On fine form, Liz Mackenzie and Lauren Carter shed light on the mental side of community building and co-leadership. We talk bananas, bounces, and burpees and get the inside scoop on what makes this worldwide fitness movement so successful in Canada's capital. (Oh, and keep an eye out for the outtake.)

I couldn't let November pass without featuring one of the most successful free fitness movements of our time. It all began as a dare between 2 rowing pals. From Iceland to Indonesia to Indianapolis, November Project catches sunrises in 52 cities across the globe. In Part 1 of this special HEA feature, I chat with its philosophical co-founder, Brogan Graham, about NP's origins, evolution, and even the moment it outgrew his control and his wildest expectations.

Time to call B.S. on another toxic artifact of today's fitness culture. In this episode, Kelly jumps on a recent exercise physiology study in a scientific journal called Sport to destroy a common adage floating around social media. So is it "fit for the pit"? Let's let science have its say.

Latest Review (Audible):
"A little gem"I'm a hard sell when it comes to books. If it doesn't grab me, I'm out. But the questions it asks at the start caught my attention. It never let go. After a refreshing analysis of fitness culture, it soon breaks into how to overcome the barriers we face, not by exercising better willpower, but by building a fitness routine based on something really personal... how you actually want fitness to feel.

The adage is true, "Every Journey Starts with a Single Step", even if you're a professional explorer. Ray Zahab's transformation has included many, dodging rattle snakes and polar bears in the process. This ex-smoker has piled up over 15,000 KM of expeditions on foot in the most inhospitable corners of the planet; the Sahara, the South Pole, Death Valley, and Baffin Island (to name a few). But as he says he still "puts on his pants one leg at a time like everyone else". Tune in to hear about his evolution, one that Ray says "has no finish lines".
