You know the saying 'less is more'?

You know the saying 'less is more'? I have definitely been a 'more is more person'. However I am slowly learning that in many instances more is either a waste or damaging.
For example in my 20's when I would start a fat loss phase and saw a difference quickly my brain would think 'yes this is working! Let's make it faster by reducing your calories even more', or 'yes this is working! If I just do 5 sessions per week instead of 3 I'll get even more results faster'.
Now while these things can be true I would ALWAYS burnout, quit & have to start again.
These thoughts of 'more is better' have been applicable to all parts of my life; alcohol, skin care, self care, sleep etc.
It's slowly through age that my mind and body are realising that consistency and balance gets me better & faster results that an intense short period which I can't maintain.
So the next time you feel like you need to do more, maybe pause for a second and consider maybe what you're already doing is perfect and if you add something more you'll end up going backwards.
3 sessions a week is definitely enough to get physical results
Adding another 'self care routine tool' to you to do list is probably going to send you over the edge- sitting still in a quiet place will get you better results.
A pea sized amount of product is generally enough.
I hope your realise that you're already enough and slowing down for one moment will also get you the results you're probably looking for.
