How to Take Your Physical Health to the Next Level

Episode 3 will encourage you with practical ways to transform your physical health. My good friend and TransFit Personal Trainer & Running Coach, Lisa Patton, provides us with ways to take your whole body health to the next level. This episode is embedded with fundamental truths and Scripture which reminds us that being healthy looks different for everyone. She reminds us the importance of play, and enjoying the things we did when we were young. She challenges us with the takeaway to “never stop playing.” You will be encouraged in the importance of choosing joy and seeing your body as a temple of the Holy Spirit. 

 

It’s Romans 12:1 that reads “Offer your bodies as a living, sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. This is your true and proper worship.” This truth really explains our WHY. Why do you want to be healthy? Everyday we are to use our bodies to love and serve - this is how we love God.

• It doesn’t have to be “all” or “nothing”
• Start playing

Philippians 4:12-13 –  “I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.”
