Reader's Question

How do you get the energy to exercise when your life is so busy and consumed with looking after a baby before looking after yourself... you have the want but no energy, time or resources to succeed?

Vix's Response

You seem to have the subtle - yet 'Oh So Powerful' - guilt factor which is very prevalent in the busy modern mum…

She devotes so much of her attention and energy on the kids that she feels guilty when thinking about taking time for herself - even time to take care of her health, strength, longevity and happiness - creates feelings of guilt in many women...

Truth be told - there's no better gift a mum can can give her child than setting the priceless example of taking care of the most valuable gift she has... 'Her Life'.

And if that's not enough - you are also ensuring that you'll be around for the kids - for as long as you possibly can - with optimal levels of energy, sanity, and vitality - setting the stage for you to even be 'alive and kicking' when the grandchildren arrive!!

Don't let myths stop you from action... Don't be fooled into thinking you have to spend a few hours every day to get undeniable results...

Don't assume that you can't follow a complete, efficient and effective program right in your own house - at the total convenience of your own schedule...

I urge you to go to my website www.mamamoves.com and download a copy of ’10 weeks to becoming a hot mama’ to help you every step of the way and make your dreams a reality!!

But don't just 'push it off another day' or another week, or another month - because that turns into years...get motivated and find an inspiring goal to keep you on track…YOUR BUB!!
