 Enjoying the process is one thing...but honoring the process is another.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The goals we make are representative of outcomes that a higher identity of ourselves has achieved but our current self is only now becoming conscious of as a possible reality to live into... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Therefore, we must take ourselves to new levels of living and being to achieve these goals. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But it’s not always pretty. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A lot of times it is painful, confusing, testing, and messy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We can’t always predict what this journey is going to look like, and if we could, we would most likely not need to be on it or we wouldn’t even choose it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The important thing is, when our soul nudges us towards something and pulls us only in the directions to go after it, and we finally choose to listen... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We must enjoy the process! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because we chose it and it’s taking us to new levels; bringing us closer to our goals and because it’s comprised of each and every moment we have been given. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ BUT!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It is equally as important to honor the process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Honor that it is soul-driven. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Honor that it is heart-centered. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And honor that because the process is so deeply rooted in the energies of your divine being, it is going to come with some growing pains. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Honor those growing pains, because they are what take the goals from the ‘to-do’ list or the vision board and lead them to your immediate reality. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Let’s make this happen, let’s move you to higher identities within yourself, let’s make your reality a beautiful manifestation of your dreams. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Send me a message saying ‘identity meditation’ and I’ll send you one of the many recorded meditations I have done for my VIP clients focused on supporting and guiding you into embodying a higher identity while releasing the ‘old’ that doesn’t bring the growth you seek. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️, Celeste Rains-Turk Build More than Just a Body www.celestial.fit

 I cried my eyes out last week.
I was drained beyond drained. I hadn’t let myself feel for too long, I mean feel DEEPLY... I kept putting more and more and more pressure on myself which was entirely counterproductive to the results I was and am seeking. I had finished a workout and could just feel this physical manifestation of pure mental, emotional, and even physiological exhaustion just wave over me. I wasn’t sad. I wasn’t upset. I was just needing to be human. I collapsed in the sun under a blanket sobbing, and it was such a powerfully soothing release. I cuddled under blankets and slept. I turned off. I reset. The next day I was much more productive, but still not entirely myself. I honor the process I’m in and recognize that it isn’t glamorous but that’s what makes it so rewarding. Yesterday I was in more flow, I was happy, feeling accomplished, and hit my workouts hard, served my clients at a high level, and had content flowing through me. I even made time to pamper myself and take an Epsom salt bath. And then a familiar feeling rushed over my body...anxiety, hello old friend. I began feeling very anxious wondering if my happiness would last. It took me back to the days of my severe depression and the anxiety I would feel not knowing if depression would wave over me and through me again without my control. But, I caught it. I recognized this feeling because I had explored it and felt it so many times before that I could address it, listen to it, and then choose to tune into a higher vibrational thought. I knew that while all things ebb and flow, I could find beauty in the struggles. After taking myself through some of my self-love and inner peace exercises/rituals, I felt more connected to my soul. I think of this picture as a representation of being fully present in the moment, my mind, my energy, my whole essence of self and months of construction all in this moment on stage, and that’s what I am working so diligently on right now... I embrace this sport, the triumphs, the fight against resistance, the choices, the commitment, the knowledge, the dedication, the precision...and so much more as a positive tool for my fulfillment in this life. I catch myself in constant gratitude for this process, while it can be grueling and painful and leave me sore, tired, and weak...it also brings me JOY, passion, play, fulfillment, love, art, creativity, and so much more. It is indescribable the feeling of giving yourself exactly what you want every day and pursuing the actions needed to keep upleveling. This works for all areas of life... If we aren’t willing to face the challenges then we cannot expect to receive the rewards that require a stronger, more driven, more determined, more mentally sound version of us that only truly comes from the choice to BECOME that higher identity we all ALREADY have within us... You have the power to believe in more, therefore you have the power to become more. What’s stopping you? What resistance do you need to face and overcome? What is ONE action step you can take to bring you closer to your goals, your higher self? Where do you need to be more kind and loving to yourself so your soul can feel free and have the space to expand? I’d love to hear your answers and hear you declare the action step so that I can hold you accountable to stepping further into the next level version of yourself! 💪🏻🔥  LOVE NUDGE: The reason you still haven’t achieved your fitness goals is because you keep trying the same bullshit every time you fail🚫
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Changing your lifestyle, your body shape, your health, the whole shabang, is SOOO much deeper than physical work. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Physical work should be the natural byproduct of a healthy, empowered, free, and inspired mind. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Shift your focus. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Worry less about having to ‘do all this healthy stuff’ and more about becoming healthy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When you become a healthy person, the ‘healthy stuff’ is a natural action step, not a forced one. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We cannot truly build a body or a lifestyle off of physical work alone. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The foundation has to be awakened from within, this new identity found and released, a version of you you must be willing to fight for... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Then, you’ll achieve your results with much more ease and in a state of loving flow rather than loathing force. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ready to fully step into, own, and LOVE the next best version of yourself? Send me a message, tell me what your goals are, and I’ll see if and how I can help you 💓 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Xx, #BuildMoreThanJustaBody with Celeste Rains-Turk: Celestial_fit Building More Than Just a Body  CULTIVATING KILLER CONFIDENCE
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I wasn’t always confident in my own skin. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I can remember spending years of my life wanting to cover everything up, cut things off, hide, or not be seen in certain ways. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’d avoid outfits, people, parties, and experiences because of this. It was getting in the way of me living life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I had a disconnect between my soul and body that I so badly wanted to mend. I wanted to be able to feel free in my own body and express my soul to the fullest ability. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It took me some time to cultivate confidence and I have a daily commitment to myself to support the confidence I aim to hold for myself. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Not just body confidence, but the confidence in who I am, what my purpose is, and what I am capable of. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Confidence can look different for everyone. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But the thing is, We cannot hit a target that we cannot see. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It is so important to know what this confidence looks like. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If there is no vision or idea or picture in your mind of what being more confident looks like, how can you expect to get there? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s time to gain clarity on what your most confident self looks like. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ BE SPECIFIC! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Reflect on this version of you: how do you carry yourself, how do you think, how do you act, how do you eat, how do you treat yourself, how do you speak to yourself, how do you make yourself feel, how do you live every single day? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When you get clear on how your most confident self looks, feels, acts, and thinks then you are more capable of stepping into this identity and of course, owning it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This confident self is your ‘next level identity’ however, it’s up to you to make it your ‘new normal’. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You must step into this identity every day in order to actually live your most confident life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Write this out, visualize it, to really see it, envision it, & feel the energy of your most confident self. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Want help building your confidence? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I created a 7 days to Killer Confidence course that I would like to give to you as a gift. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’d like to accept the gift, click HERE and for the next 7 days you’ll get lessons and action steps on cultivating killer confidence that you can apply to all facets of your life.  If you only did one thing for the rest of your life, let it be loving yourself. Love provides freedom, fulfillment, peace, and healing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When we choose love we choose what is best for us in body, mind, and soul. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When we choose love we choose growth for every area of life in which we seek it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When we choose love we choose to shine light on things that we have kept in the dark. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When we choose love we choose beliefs and principles that connect us to ourselves and others. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When we choose love for ourselves we are choosing love for others. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When we love ourselves, we radiate that love out into the world, and when there’s more love in the world...well, I’ll let you decide what happens then. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But we cannot deny that the love must begin within because how are we to experience love from an external source if we have not yet generated it internally? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Cultivating self-love is an experience, an adventure, a journey. And sometimes we need help along the way...I’ve been there, I help others to love themselves so every decision made comes from a genuine loving place that naturally inspires you to take fulfilling actions for yourself, your goals, and your lifestyle. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m opening up time in my calendar next week to speak with those of you struggling with self-loathing behaviors and thought patterns that are limiting you from growing and fulfilling what you’ve always hoped to... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sound like something you could benefit from? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I would love to make a breakthrough with you... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Click HERE, choose a time that works for you, fill in the form so I know what we need to focus on to make a breakthrough with you within our 20-30 min call together. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have questions? Message me 💖  If you’re not waking up with a smile on your face...
If you’re not excited about the action you’re about to take... If you’re not enjoying the little things while going after big dreams... Then what are you doing? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As much as I’ve been taught to: •Struggle •Suffer •Sell myself short •Say sorry for being who I am ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ All to get to some destination that doesn’t really define me, expecting me to subscribe to this predetermined program ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Well ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I have come to a conclusion, well beyond this illusion... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Life is meant to be lived with our souls not our conditioning ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Way beyond the screens Way beyond the movie scenes Way beyond the society that should really be in quarantine ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Someone said you can’t have it all, but I don’t take advice from people who believe in scarcity actin like the universe doesn’t play a role in your destiny. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Please. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You gotta be kidding me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Day to day people complaining about their realities forgetting that following their dreams doesn’t have to result in casualties. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m doing what I love Allowing my intuition to support me Magnetizing all the things I want and recognizing what I’ve gotta get rid of ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To grow To change To leave a legacy behind ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Knowing I have control of the way my life’s designed ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And here’s the good news, So do you ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Just step up the plate and decide that from this moment on you’re gunna let your soul be your guide. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because your life’s to precious to just slide right by. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So embrace yourself And say thank you to your psyche living in the vessel that we call the human body. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s your souls greatest asset So invest in it And Before you know it you’ll be living on a whole other level of consciousness ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You’re Capable and worthy Be here, now, no need to worry about the how Just let go and trust, there’s no reason to hurry ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You have to live your life to love your life. So when you wake up tomorrow morning you can be smilin, excited, enjoying all the little things because we all know you’re here to fulfill your dreams ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️  You all know I am not one to hold back my feelings.
I would be lying if I said I haven’t been fighting more of a mental game than a physical one this prep. Tonight I started taking photos to see where I was at at the end of the night and also did this to help make me feel better honestly; To show myself what I have accomplished and to remind myself I can keep going and I can be and am unstoppable. I have 34 days and 13 hours to maximize every opportunity presented on this prep. I sat in my car this morning and I cried a little. Not because I was sad, but because I know I have what it takes to do whatever it takes and at this point of prep I always turn into a big ball of emotion. Crying tends to be how my body releases it the most. I’ve been having dreams at night of me killing cardio sessions. I’ve been waking up with visions of me pushin harder in the gym hittin the weights like never before squeezing every rep out. There’s so much I want to share with you guys. I’m honestly just in a place I’ve never been in before, when are we ever in the same place though?, and If I’m going to be entirely transparent, I’m digging really frikkin deep, even deeper than before. I’m grateful for all the support I have in my life through these processes and I know that I can do this. I am loving myself with compassion through the journey and honoring myself with the fire to never give up on my passions, goals, and dreams with positive beliefs on repeat in my mind. The more I give to the process, the more the process gives to me. I’m grateful to have my own coach to take this journey so seriously with me. All coaches need coaches, and I know this because if I didn’t have my coaches and teammates I wouldn’t be feeling as fired up to keep going as I do right now. Because it’s not the easy moments that make us better, it’s in the nitty gritty challenges, those are the real opportunities for growth and I’m here to seize them in gratitude knowing they will be what take me to the next level. Here’s to giving nothing less than the very best day in and day out, moment by moment... (also, that’s gum hanging out of my mouth 🤷🏻♀️)  A champion isn’t born in a moment.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A champion isn’t even born from a process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A ‘champion’, by definition, has beaten the rest of the competition, they’re the last one standing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Everyone has a process, the champion is truly made from the execution of every step in the process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You cannot become a champion without being a champion for the process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You cannot become a champion by giving in when it gets tough. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You must rise to the occasion when others won’t. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You must choose to go further when others don’t. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Whatever you are becoming a champion in, be so focused on every detail that there is no doubt in the outcome that you brought your best, gave more than your all, and showed up as a new and improved version of yourself every damn day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If becoming a champion was made for everyone then there would be no true champion, there’d be no more last man standing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Step up and never give up because it’s not a matter of ‘when’ or ‘how’ it’s a matter of the right now and every moment following. The rest will take care of itself. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Be proud of your growth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Own your journey. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Give everything you have and dig deeper for more then when you have one second left before it’s showtime, breathe and exude the champions mindset. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because a champion only becomes a champion when they believe they have already won. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Repeat after me; I am a champion of every moment presented to me and I trust that in this process the rest takes care of itself exactly as it’s meant to be so long as I have given more than everything I have within me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am a champion because... ...I have beaten myself ...I stepped up when I could have stepped down ...I said NO to ‘I have no more’ and said YES to ‘there’s always more’. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am a champion and as a champion I know that there is ALWAYS room to grow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Comment below with what makes you feel like a champion ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #stayhungry Xx, Celeste Rains-Turk: Celestial_fit  “I integrated this program into my lifestyle.

(I didn’t believe it was possible. I would have thought I was crazy 6 years ago & I probably would have laughed in my own face.
