Reduce Stress and Increase Happiness in This Ten Minutes Per Day Habit – Improve Your Quality of Life Today!

October 6, 2016 by IR Staff 2 Comments

happyReduce Stress and Increase Happiness?
In Ten Minutes or less per day?
Sounds too good to be true, right?
This article might be long, but it will be worth the read, if you would like to experience an increase in your happiness, satisfaction, and success.
I have been partaking in a daily habit that is completely transforming the way I think about my life, my relationships, my work, and my purpose in life, and at this point, it would be selfish and wrong to not share this with the people in my life that want to experience improved quality of life. So here it goes…
Founder and Owner, Aaron Guyett with his kids.
Founder and Owner, Aaron Guyett with his kids.

How can you spend 2 to 10 minutes every day, and experience more happiness, satisfaction, and success, even in the midst of our busy and stressful lives?

 

First, we need to understand that thinking happy, satisfying, and successful thoughts goes against our nature. All of humanity is wired to remember and focus on the negative, and in case you think you are the exception, read these questions and ponder the answer.
Which thing can you remember faster, something a significant other in your life did that was good or bad?
busy lifestyleWhen you have performed a thousand good deeds or actions for your boss or job, why do they (or you) recall or focus on the one bad thing?
When asked a general question about the way you perform, why do you instantly think with a negative bias, and tend to find your body language, words, or thoughts to be defensive in nature?
Why do we tend to believe the World is getting more violent, oppressive, and dangerous, when every study of history depicts the opposite is in fact occurring in today’s World?
This is the way our minds were created, and without getting overly spiritual, this is what keeps us out of harms way.

The issue with this brain wiring, is that even though life is easier and safer, relative to our human history, we are more depressed, anxious, and medicated than ever before.
We don’t have to fall into this pattern, though. We can make daily choices that help us focus on all of the good stuff, and experience lives that are happier, more satisfying, and more successful, despite the social, emotional, and environmental  pressure and stress that can seem to surround us.

If we train our brains to focus on the positives and help seat these positives deep into our psycho-social rhythms, we will reap amazing quality-of-life improvements (And that is what Innovative Results is all about).
Daily movement is shown to improve us psychologically, just as much if not more than it improves us physiologically, but if our thoughts are bad, even playful movement can seem like a daunting task or difficult chore.
I challenge you, to take the 90 Day Bliss challenge:
  • Take 2 to 10 minutes everyday to partake in one of the Bliss App exercises to improve your quality of life for 90 days in a row.
summer-beach-fun-wallpaperWhy perform positive psychology or positive neuroplasticity training (PNT) daily?
From the Bliss App Page:
“Psychologists have identified a collection of exercises, or “interventions,” which have been shown to create long-lasting improvements in happiness, motivation, resilience, life-satisfaction, and a host of other positive mental traits. Bliss packages these exercises up for you in one application so that you can easily incorporate them into your life and reap all the benefits from decades of research in positive psychology.”
You can get the Bliss app on your phone (even iPhone) here: http://bliss31.com/about.php
If you are interested in some of the research behind this I suggest reading:
  • “The Happiness Advantage” by: Shawn Achor
  • Dr. Rick Hanson’s handout here: https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/fwb-media.rickhanson.net/PDFfiles/UsingYourMindToChangeYourBrain.pdf
  • And this study http://www.rickhanson.net/teaching/tgc-public-summary/
There is a lot more material proving the point, but I won’t burden you with an exhaustive bibliography.
Know that I want you to experience improved quality of life through increased happiness, satisfaction, success, and purpose in you life, and I believe you will appreciate this HUGE step in that direction!

Make a Change with these 3 Pillars Of Innovative Results Support System

Yoga demonstrates her strength and flexibility through yoga at the beach, and at Innovative Results.

Your unique human experience is so personal, so special that no one gets to experience it but you.

Literally every thought, every idea, every opinion you’ve had has only been seen through the lens of your perception.

You not only live your life, you create it.

You have the power to change your life through reconstructing your INTERNAL WORLD; your thoughts, words, and actions.

A positive attitude is intentional, and if you can think, speak, and act consistently in this way, you will manifest more motivation, happiness, and improved life conditions.

playground workoutWhat is often not realized, is how much power you have to reconstruct your EXTERNAL WORLD.

Are you in an environment for self-transformation and success?

Does you coach allow you to be vulnerable, yet encourage you to discover the strength that already resides within you?

Do your friends uplift you and empower you to strive towards becoming your greatest you?

Understanding that you can change your surroundings will give yourself room to grow, experiment, and begin designing the life of your dreams.

A healthy support system allows others to embrace you, magnify your strengths, and encourage you to be exactly who you want to be.

ENVIRONMENT

Your environment matters.playground

It is your home, your workplace, the places you go, and the energy you emanate from your body.

If you are noticing an underlying feeling of frustration, impatience, or restlessness during your day, reflect on your current situation.

This edginess might be the results of your dissatisfaction with your environment.

Why would you constantly go somewhere that doesn’t make you happy?

Your environment is your path towards becoming your greatest potential.

Place yourself in areas that allow you to triumph.

Engage in work that feeds your authentic self.

Make sure each step you take is a step towards somewhere that allows you to grow exponentially.

In regards to training, the psychological and physical benefits of exercise can be altered by the exercise environment you work out in.

COACHING

Master Coach Aaron with his daughter Hannah.
Master Coach Aaron with his daughter Hannah.

Transitioning through a lifestyle change towards moving better, looking better, and feeling better can be smooth sailing with the guidance of a coach that supports you.

Find a coach that inspires you to create the mindset of success. (Hint: Innovative Results)

Someone who creates the understanding that you are strong, you are not weak. (Hint: Innovative Results)

A coach that not only cares about your fitness goals, but truly cares about helping you tap into your potential, to succeed during training but create that same success everyday of your life. (Hint: Innovative Results)

Exercising is meant to create tiny tears in your muscles, not tears in your confidence and self-image.

Continuously spend time around people who add something to your life, who can be a positive support and fill you with a desire to express yourself.

FRIENDS

Your exuberance is often fueled by the people you are around most.

Surround yourself with people who kindle your spirit.

Communicate with ones that emulate the success you want to render in your own life.

Allow others to see the greatness within you and inspire you, to release you from self-doubt and build your self-esteem.

The best friends are the ones that genuinely support you, with unconditional love and acceptance.

Who you spend time with the most will contribute to how you will feel and what you will experience.

This sometimes means walking away from the negative people, the toxic people, and the ones that serve you no purpose towards becoming your best.

Why would you spend time with people who don’t see how amazing you are?

Understanding the value of your friends will manifest a great feeling of enthusiasm for the people who mean so much to you.

Each day, we make choices that influence the character of our experiences.

Our decisions determine whether our paths are exhilarating or tedious, supported or tiresome.

Acquire the courage that drives you to surround yourself with support and notice the advantageous effects in every aspect of your life.

You Are Building a Legacy of Improved Quality of Life at Innovative Results – An Immediate, Short-term, and Long-Term Effect

May 13, 2016 by ptpt Leave a Comment

Building a Legacy of Improved Quality of Life – The Long Term Effects

When Innovative Results started ten years ago, there was always a dream of leaving a lasting impact on the quality of people’s lives with mindset, movement, and recovery.

Utilizing the Innovative Results values of dedication to the basics, diligent change and growth, and serving community, this IR Team and Family is starting to see a long term legacy be forged.

As Innovative Results clients stick with its planned approach to fitness, community, self-development, and team development, they are beginning to see their own legacy of improved quality of life be sustained in their own lives, but also extend into their family’s, coworker’s, and friend’s lives.

As the IR Team continues to work hard with focused intensity and patient endurance for their clients, they are beginning to see the legacy of improved quality of life move into and throughout the local community.

“The chief cause of failure and unhappiness is trading what you want most for what you want now.”

– Zig Ziglar

If Innovative Results chose to quit during the hard times when the real estate bubble popped, or when things weren’t going perfectly, thousands of people would not have been directly impacted by the Innovative Results purpose (to improve the quality of life for clients and the community).

Kelly wouldn’t have found core strength or broken her fears.

Marty wouldn’t have been taken of his medications.

Whitney wouldn’t have felt better.

Ian wouldn’t have won a championship.

Shannon wouldn’t have been encouraged.

Josh wouldn’t have improved his attitude on life.

Debbie wouldn’t have received direction for improvement.

Will wouldn’t have realized his strength.

Costa Mesa’s community wouldn’t have felt the amount of love and support that it does today.

And the list goes on.

Innovative Results wanted to help people improve physically, but now also realizes that the implications of building legacy go beyond physical and become both mental and spiritual.

newport beach personal trainerImproved Quality of Life for Clients

As has been written in the two articles – Improved Quality of Life 1 & Improved Quality of Life 2 – that preceded this article, the improvement clients feel and experience at Innovative Results spans across many different aspects of a person’s life.

From mental to physical, every client is improved in many ways.

Beyond the immediate and short-term improved quality of life, clients begin to see their improvements touch the community around them.

They also see their finances, health, longevity, and attitude change for good.

These improvements are long lasting, partly, because they are more rewarding than stronger body, sexier look, or better performance (don’t worry, this is part of your improvement, too), and also because they have deeper impact in people’s lives.

Few people have correlated their waist inches with saving their daughter’s life, or the greatness of their entrepreneurial success, or their down payment on a house.

However, the mental changes that take place from a positive and productive routine called exercise–and in this case training specifically to reach specific goals, such as feel better, look better, move better, and perform better–set the stage for greater events to occur.

EmilysQuotes.Com-time-plant-tree-present-nature-being-a-good-person-inspirational-Chinese-ProverbImproved Quality of Life for a Community

When one client gets better a community gets better.

Think about it, as each client goes home less stressed, more confident, stronger, satisfied with their progress at Innovative Results, they are going to be treating their family with this renewed attitude.

When a person exercises they sleep better, perform better, and tend to budget finances better.

Almost every person in the world could benefit themselves, their family, and a community with those improvements.

Some of these concepts seem intangible or ethereal, when all it takes is a moment to think through the longer term effects of consistent, healthy training to realize the impacts delve deeply into improving the quality of life for a community.

good-habits-are-as-addictive-as-bad-habitsReduced Medical Bills

Let’s take just one aspect of a person’s life.

Reduction of medical bills would drastically improve a persons finances, help bring physical happiness and mental happiness to their life, and improve their productivity and performance at work.

Things like this do not happen in a bubble.

Every person in a community is related on some level or another, and this one simple improvement to one aspect is just the tip of the iceberg to what is happening to improve their own life and the life of the people around them.

garret meditationLonger and More Satisfying Life

It is one thing to live a longer life in misery and pain, but it is quite another to enjoy every year of a long and fruitful existence.

The satisfying part is key.

It is not necessarily moment-to-moment happiness that leads to satisfaction.

There are many champions, winners, lovers, and great people that went through periods of suffering, enduring momentary pain with their eye still on the prize, and that enabled them to live a life which was far more satisfying than if they would have escaped or quit from the time of suffering.

The immediate, short-term and long-term legacy of improved quality of life that Innovative Results brings to its clients is about helping people live that longer and more satisfying life.

This satisfaction goes from the living room to the board room.

Improved Work Capacity

Countless clients have told Innovative Results about the fact that their productivity at work went up since training consistently and eating well for just a few months.

This often-shared story is helpful for the client looking to make a fruitful change in their life and the lives of the people around them.

The work at Innovative Results translated into their home-life, business-life, and recreational life.

They are more satisfied with their days, and are less afraid of challenges that confront every person on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.

An Awesome Story to Tell

Every single one of IR’s clients now has an awesome story to tell.

As they have pushed themselves, been encouraged by the IR Team, and been supported by the people they workout with, they have been touched indelibly for the rest of their lives.

They made a decision to do something to improve the quality of their life, and the people’s lives around them.

This is something that matters deeply to the IR Team and to the IR Family.

Innovative Results loves nothing more than to see people transform.

The IR Team cares about seeing improvement in the lives of their clients, and their community.

They care so much they will not be satisfied until they can either directly or indirectly impact every person in their community.

This fitness family wants to hear, share, and shout every success story, because they know it will most definitely effect the lives of all the other people around them.

They want to thank you for sharing your story, and ask that you continue to share it.APSnatchAward

Before Your Resolutions, Don’t Forget to Count Your Blessings

January 1, 2016 by IR Staff Leave a Comment

If you don’t count your blessings, they are more likely to pass you by without being noticed in this New Year, too.21651-I-Chose-To-Be-Happy

There are countless studies that demonstrate how effective gratefulness can be for our happiness, performance, and productivity, so before you begin down the resolution road this year, count your blessings from last year. (Google search “gratefulness study”, and you will see incredible data backing my claim.)

If we are the sum total of our choices, habits, and behaviors…

The more you count your blessings, the better you will become at being grateful, appreciative, and thankful for all the things and happenings in your life–big or small.blog-consequences The better you become at being grateful, the happier you will be.

The happier you are, the easier it is to do the hard stuff that builds the necessary habits for your resolutions to stick.

Behavior changes for physical, financial, mental, spiritual, and relational transformation can seem very difficult (many of us experience this every year).

The Marine Corps is infiltrated with critical observers and people that point out the negatives in most situations–making transformation difficult. There is even a saying, “if the Marines aren’t complaining than something is wrong.” However, there was always a few standout Marines, some outliers, that everyone admired and were attracted to, because of their ability to transform themselves and others despite the obstacles.

These Marines could brighten up the worst of situations, with just a phrase.

I remember, we were in the middle of the night, freezing our butts off, practicing patrols with little to eat, no sleep, and not enough warming layers. When a seasoned Gunny came out of the night shadows, while our team was prepping to go out, and said with a smile, “and we get paid for this?”

personal trainer in orange county named AaronIt was in jest, but that short phrase, said with a smile, changed everyone’s perspective on that field operation. We were grateful for the training, because it would one day help us survive.

We were grateful for our paychecks, because they help us make ends meet.

We were grateful for each other, because we could suffer together.

We were grateful for him, because he made us all laugh and smile during a pretty tough challenge that would help us endure in the future.

So take a moment to think about last year’s blessings.

Be a good-finder.

Write it down, and tell some people about your blessings.

Ask those same people about their blessings…I guarantee they will appreciate you for it.

And then venture forward into this New Year with an attitude of gratefulness, and watch how your transformation, although challenging, won’t feel impossible.

Make this next year, your best year!!

I Choose HAPPY Now – A Story About Choosing Happiness from Aaron Guyett

October 23, 2015 by Jessica Leave a Comment

CBAnnBy Aaron Guyett

What are you doing this weekend?

Me personally, I get the opportunity to watch my long time friend and business partner get married…and when I thought about it, I want to share my happiness choice with you.

I choose happiness now, and I encourage you to choose happiness now, too, not because of the good that will happen to you, but because you choose to see the good in everything.

Every dark cloud has a silver lining, and it takes an incredible amount of character to choose love, joy, and happiness even in those tough situations.

I am not saying, “don’t be sad, or sadness, frustration, and anger is not allowed.”

They are all emotions that we experience, and they are all valid.

I am challenging you to pursue happiness from the inside out.21651-I-Chose-To-Be-Happy

Pursue a new way to perceive your surroundings.

Believe the best in yourself and others.

Look for what makes you happy or grateful for yourself, your surroundings, and others in your life, especially your loved ones.

I would be willing to bet that there are many things you might be taking for granted that you can now show love, happiness, and appreciation for, regardless of how many “bad” things might come with yourself, situations, and others.

Smiling is a way we can all pursue this character in our lives no matter the situation.

Impact your life and the lives of others with a free gift: your smile.Happy (1)

 

Watch Smile Video here, and I dare you to keep a straight face.

 

 

Make your next hour your best hour!

6 Ways To Get a Break From Your Busy Day – Innovative Results Helps You Improve Your Quality of Life With Recovery Tips

April 22, 2012 by ptpt Leave a Comment

Maximize Recovery on the MoveJennifer Lifting with Kettlebell

So, I had a long day at work and afterwards got in a session with Corey, my manager.  It was a great workout.  Afterwards he gave me a big smile and a high five and I was feeling better, but tired, when I climbed into my car.  And then I hit the 405.  “@#$%^!!!!!!!!!”  In the span of a minute tension was racing back into my system: blood pressure rising as I got angry at traffic, my shoulders and neck getting tense.

CTraffic, frustration, stress, recover, recovery, active recoveryars and commutes can be some of our worst enemies when we’re trying to make
positive changes in our health and fitness.  The stress seeps in and sabotages our bodies’ ability to handle life well, let alone adapt to the positive stress of a well thought-out exercise program.  Even worse it causes us to adopt harmful habits in our posture, our breathing, our sleep, and even our mindset and the way we interact with people.

So here are some simple things that I’ve been practicing  that help a lot when life seems like it’s getting to be too much.

Why not try this tonight?

6 Ways To Get a Break From Your Busy Day

  1. breathing techniques for recoveryAs soon as you get in your car, take 5 deep, slow breaths.  In through the nose, out through the mouth, filling your lungs from bottom to top as full as you can.  Repeat this every time you merge onto a different freeway, or at the start of each significant leg of your journey.  Just don’t close your eyes!
  2. Name 5 things that you are grateful for.  Things that are going well in your life.  Then express your gratitude to somebody before you go to bed!
  3. Take 5 minutes to admire something.  It could be a view, a plant, a nice building or a yard, a child’s project, a loved one.
  4. Before you go to bed, write out 1 chore outside of work that you’ve been putting off that you can accomplish tomorrow.   Put the note somewhere that you will see it tomorrow and get it done.
  5. Right before sleepy time, take another 10 deep breaths, this time with your eyes closed, and think about the thing that you are the most grateful for.  Sweet dreams!
  6. Daily: take 5 minutes every hour to stand up tall and straight.  Let your shoulders come down and be relaxed and broad.  Tighten your core a bit, like a belt.  Let your spine grow tall to the ceiling.  Relax and breathe deep.

All of this will help you lay a foundation for clear thinking, for better circulation, and for better rest.  And if you can practice calm, clarity, and gratitude every day, you are really going to be on track to getting your body where you want it to go!
