Show Summary: How many of us have started the new year with resolutions about exercise or dieting? We tend to go into the new year with high hopes about how we’re going to change our lifestyle. What if the first step is actually reframing our mindset? Robin Long is a health and wellness expert who realized she needed to make big changes to alter a toxic cycle of exercising and overeating. Join hosts Eryn Eddy Adkins and Vivian Mabuni as they ring in the new year learning about how to have a balanced approach to health and wellness during this God Hears Her conversation.

Notes and Quotes: 
“We all have a journey that we’ve been on that informs how we relate to our body today, and how we relate to our self-care, exercise, and fitness.” —Robin Long

When we aren’t feeling well in our body, we go through our day with a level of stress, with a level of disengagement or anxiety, that can really affect our relationships and how we feel.” —Robin Long

“How do we break that all-or-nothing mentality? How do we disconnect the belief that wellness equals weight loss. . . or whatever your definition of wellness equals, whatever is on the outside.” —Robin Long

God says we are good, and that He created us in His image. So knowing that we are good as we are today, we don’t have to change the size of our thighs. We don’t have to change the shape of our bodies. We don’t have to change who we are in order to be called good, to be called worthy and loved. —Robin Long
