Cultivating Balance day to day on GLP-1

Quantum Alignment on Your GLP-1 Journey Have you ever felt like your body is moving forward, but your mind and spirit are still catching up? Just feeling off, like something is missing or misunderstood. That’s exactly how I felt at the start of my GLP-1 journey. The scale was moving, sure—but deep down, I knew real transformation had to happen on the inside first. I felt like I was chasing after the real me. Strange, maybe, but hear me out. I had this idea of who I truly was: resilient, unapologetic in spirit, bold in my own mind. But in reality? I wasn’t fully speaking my truth to power . Oftentimes, I disqualified myself before anyone else even had the chance. See, this journey wasn’t just about weight or numbers—it was about healing the inherited beliefs I carried about my own power, aligning my energy with my truth, and stepping fully into the person I was meant to be. ✨ What is Quantum Alignment? Quantum Alignment goes beyond setting intentions . It’s about noticing how y...

Unconscious and Rewriting Old Narratives: The Battle to Lose & Gain on GLP-1

  Uncovering the Unconscious and Rewriting Old Narratives: The Battle to Lose & Gain on GLP-1 When I finished reflecting on Frantz Fanon ’s work, I realized that reclaiming my power meant I also had to understand what was powering me. That’s when Dr. Sigmund Freud ’s insights on the unconscious stepped forward — not as a clinical framework, but as a mirror. Freud taught that much of what drives us lies beneath awareness: buried emotions, unprocessed experiences, and the internalized scripts we carry from childhood. At first, I resisted this idea. I wanted to believe I was fully in control. But my body knew otherwise. My anxiety, cravings, and exhaustion weren’t random; they were messages — the language of my subconscious asking to be heard. Through my GLP-1 journey, I began to feel this in real time. As my body recalibrated, it made space for deeper awareness. When the appetite quieted, the inner dialogue grew louder — and I started hearing the why behind my patterns...

Iyanla Vanzant’s Lessons on Mindful Alignment

Tending Mind and Spirit While on GLP-1: Iyanla Vanzant’s Guidance One thing I realized on this journey is that the mind and spirit needed tending too. That’s where Iyanla Vanzant became a guiding light. Her teachings on honesty, reflection, and daily practice showed me that true change isn’t rushed — it’s built from consistent, mindful action. Vanzant emphasizes that healing starts with truth — naming what’s real in your life without avoiding it. For me, that meant acknowledging my long-held people-pleasing habits , inherited anxiety , and the ways past experiences shaped my choices around food, self-care, and body image. Shadow work gave me language, but Vanzant gave me practical tools to act . Daily rituals — journaling, gratitude moments, morning reflections — became my anchors. Before each GLP-1 shot, I pause to set intention, honoring both my progress and the areas where I still need compassion. These small acts ripple outward, shaping how I respond to cravings, manage stres...

Menopause & GLP-1: A New Chapter of Change

Menopause & GLP-1: A New Chapter of Change by Tonua Norice | GLP-1 Mind • Body • Spirit Reflection Menopause isn’t just a phase — it’s a full-body awakening. The changes can feel confusing, even unfair, but they’re also an invitation to listen deeper. GLP-1 support helped me navigate “The Change” with more grace, balance, and energy — and showed me that aligning mind, body, and spirit turns this season into one of renewal, not loss. The Shift No One Warned Me About The weight starts to cling around your middle. That midsection bulge — that fupa — shows up with the bold confidence of a 19-year-old in a bikini. Sleep gets harder. Cravings get louder. Energy dips just when you need it most. I know what it’s like to wonder if the old rules — eat less, move more, try harder — will ever work again. It’s exhausting. The kids were gone. The house was quiet. Some days I caught myself whispering, “Okay God, I want a do-over.” I...

Healing Mind, Body & Spirit: My GLP-1 Journey

Healing Mind, Body & Spirit – My GLP-1 Journey by Tonua Norice | GLP-1 Mind • Body • Spirit Reflection Searching for Answers: Faith, Frustration, and Unworthiness I looked for answers. I prayed, fasted, cried, and waited. Nothing changed — in fact, I gained weight. Raised in a Christian household, I believed patience and faith would bring transformation. But that waiting often led to frustration. I struggled with a deep sense of unworthiness, wondering if this was a trial I was meant to simply endure. Finding Guidance and Exploring New Ideas I pushed harder — more cardio, stricter routines — until I was near exhaustion. Then I prayed again, but this time, for guidance instead of results. That’s when I met a new doctor, a Black woman, and shared my story openly — all the frustration, all the effort, all the hope. Around that same time, I began exploring African spirituality , the Ma’at principles of balance...

When the Scale Won’t Budge: Loving the Pause by Tonua Norice | GLP-1 Mind • Body • Spirit Reflection Let’s talk about that moment when the scale just… stops. You’ve been showing up — taking your shots, walking, drinking your water, doing your best — and still, nothing moves. Whew. I know that feeling. It’s easy to slip into frustration, start negotiating with the mirror, or question if all of this is even worth it. But here’s the truth I want you to hold close: Your body isn’t stuck. You’re in process. This pause isn’t punishment — it’s recalibration. Your system is quietly adjusting, healing, building something beneath the surface that you can’t yet see. 💫 Be at Peace with the Pause When the numbers won’t move, take a breath and remember — this is still movement. Energy is shifting. Chemistry is balancing. You’re not behind. You’re becoming. Stand in front of that mirror and say it out loud: “I lov...
