April 2025 Fitness Tip featuring our RHS Fitness Guru Sunny Mathews

List your top 3 priorities—Go!

Were you on that list?

It’s usually: Faith, Family, Friends. But rarely, if ever, yourself.

Have you been conditioned to believe that prioritizing your own needs is selfish? It’s tough to break free from that mindset.

But consider this: “You can’t give what you don’t have.” Just like a pitcher needs to be filled before it can pour into others, you must nurture yourself to truly be there for those you love. When you make yourself a priority, you’re better equipped to care for others from a place of fullness and joy.

Whenever I feel disconnected, I take a walk outside to reconnect with my inner peace. Fresh air and movement are simple, powerful ways to feel better fast.

Fitness is the foundation of every aspect of your life. It cultivates:

  • Discipline
  • Mental toughness
  • Grit
  • Self-confidence
  • Goal-setting
  • Time management
  • Productivity
  • Mental health
  • Social connections
  • Fulfillment
  • Happiness

…and so much more.

People say, “Trust the process” (and chill)—but it’s easy to feel frustrated when effort doesn’t yield immediate results. So why trust the process?

Because it’s true. Real, lasting results take time. If your tracking and training are aligned with your goals, then YES—trust and believe!

Now is the time to lean into your habits, remain consistent, and have faith that your efforts are working. Believe in yourself. Don’t let doubt erode your faith.

You can do it! You can have your cake and eat it too!
