Changing Your Environment To Reach Your Goals

Transform Your Space To Boost Your Success

When we have goals towards weight loss we often solely focus on diet and exercise, when many factors can play into your end achievement of lifestyle, body or health goals you may have for yourself. Your surroundings and environment play a vital role to success in any goals you may have, and the same applies for weight loss.

At FitFarms we have seen first hand the significance that environment can portray on our mindset. All our sites are in relaxing and picturesque landscapes which create a calming and focused environment. We find huge differences in people's mindsets and attitudes towards their lifestyles that they may not of found before, and this is all reflected in their surroundings. We also focus on the transition from an environment such as FitFarms, which isn’t realistic for everyday life, but take the factors you may have at a retreat and transform that into your schedule. In our nutrition classes at FitFarms Palm Springs we focus on the significance of tweaking your environment to align with your targets and personal focus.

So, what factors of your environment are important when focusing towards a weight loss goal and what changes can you make to your surrounding to benefit you on this journey. Firstly, what is going to lead you to a familiar road away from your weight loss goals, what have been your past triggers to overeating.

Battling Temptations

Temptations to eat often come from the surroundings of our own home, having unhealthy temptations around us constantly makes it a lot more likely to slip off track. So, making your home environment reflect to your goals is important. If you have junk food snacks and frozen meals easy to hand your setting your track to success up with twice as many obstacles. Store what you need for your meal plan, diet and healthy snacks to keep your surroundings level with what you’re out to achieve for yourself.

The same with other parts of your life, if your working environment is somewhere you have found yourself snacking and over eating out of boredom or accessibility, take that away and replace it with healthier alternatives. Mirror your goals into your day to day life, it’ll make it a lot easier for you to stay focused on what your aiming to accomplish.

Impact of your Support System

Secondly, your support system. The people around you day to day are as much your environment as your physical surroundings. Having a healthy support system throughout your journey is key in achieving your goals. Reaching out to the people that you care about and leaning on them through your journey of bettering yourself is vital. Weight loss and lifestyle change is a challenging road, and taking it all on yourself makes it ten times more challenging.

If you’re focusing on lifestyle change through exercise or changing your diet, finding a friend or family member that has the same goals in mind will boost motivation and allow an extra level of support. Sometimes relying solely on yourself isn’t enough, and reaching out and sharing your journey with a loved one can not only be empowering to yourself but to other people as well.

So, surrounding yourself and your daily environment with support and reaching out to those who can lead and guide you will make your road to your achievements much more smooth sailing.
