#45 - THINK FIT: I AM READY TO BE HEALED.
29 May 2020 · 17 min
In this solo episode of the Jorge Cruise Show recorded on May 29 2020, the host delivers a concise, high‑performance living briefing aimed at busy listeners. He begins with sponsor messages for Navitas Organic (chia seed flat‑belly meal recipe), Primal Kitchen (free avocado‑oil chipotle lemon mayo), and Joovv (red‑light therapy device), each accompanied by discount codes and personal usage anecdotes. He then presents a startling statistic that 91 % of people carry dangerous belly fat, linking excess abdominal fat to low energy, poor sleep, aches, and reduced performance. The core of the episode is an 8‑minute “ThinkFit” segment featuring the affirmation “I am ready to be healed,” which he repeats three times and guides listeners to repeat, framing it as a mental reset for post‑COVID life. He connects this affirmation to his three‑pillar framework—Move (morning exercise), Think (affirmations), and Eat (intermittent fasting). Throughout, he references his work with celebrity clients, his bestselling author status, and encourages listeners to subscribe to his free weekly “Jorge Cruise Report” newsletter for short, actionable health shortcuts. The episode ends with a call to share the podcast and a reminder of upcoming content.

Happy Friday everyone, it's May 29th. It is the last Friday of the month. I hope you're doing super well. I'm Jorge Cruise and this is the show for high performance living for people who don't have time. This episode of the show is brought to you by Navitas Organic. Navitas Organic for me is the way I cheat the fast. I have so many celebrity clients, as you guys know, doing intermittent fasting, and one of the tricks, one of the biohacks really to stop hunger in its tracks without breaking your fasts are these flat belly meals and flat belly waters I make. And one of the critical, critical ingredients to making this simple recipe, uh, and if you're going to try it today, I mean, I would advise you to get the best chia seeds out there. And the only ones I use in my kitchen at home with friends, family, and celebrity clients are Navitas Organic chia seeds, and they really are organic. A lot of companies, even though they say they are, are not certified organic. Navitas is Beyond Certified. These are the ultimate chia seeds in my opinion, and they have an exclusive offer for us, so I'm going to tell you about that in a second. But I use this in a recipe and I want to give it to you really quick. It's simple. You add 3 tablespoons of Navitas organic chia seeds with 8 ounces of unsweetened almond milk, 3 tablespoons of my favorite avocado You know, I just love avocado oil. It's anti-inflammatory, doesn't have any sugar. None of this stuff does. That's why it doesn't break your fast. And then a couple drops of stevia, which is a natural sweetener, which I like. A couple drops, whatever flavors you want to use. You combine that, mix it, do not blend it, and you will have in about 5 minutes this beautiful kind of meal. If you drink it quicker, it's more of a smoothie. It's more, it's more of a just of a liquid. But if you let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes, it becomes more of a meal. And I will tell you, you will fill up. I use this in the mornings when I'm hungry or lunchtime, and especially if I'm doing just one meal a day. And the only thing I will eat is this organic chia seed because I'll tell you, there's so much, so many chia seeds out there. You can get them at any store, Trader Joe's, wherever, but the quality is not the same. So check out Navitas Organic, guys. I think you're going to love it.

All right guys, with that said, it is Friday, and today we're going to get the edge in just 8 minutes with this ThinkFit. It says, I am ready to be healed. So let's get started right now. It's a fact, 91% of us have a dangerous amount of belly fat, and it isn't just unsightly. When you have too much belly fat, you sabotage your ability to live a high-performance lifestyle because you're more likely to suffer from aches and pains, low energy, memory loss, and poor sleep, which prevents you from performing your best at work, spending true quality time with your loved ones, and doing your favorite hobbies. The good news is that you can break this cycle, reduce belly fat, and achieve high-performance living in just 8 minutes. Hi, my name is Jorge Cruise, and I'm known as the leader in 8-minute high-performance living to the world's busiest celebrities. I've been a fitness, nutrition, and life strategist for over 25 years, and you may have seen my work with Oprah Winfrey, Khloe Kardashian, President Clinton, Tyra Banks, Dr. Oz, Tony Robbins, or even Steve Harvey. My passion to find the best science-backed shortcuts has allowed me to write over 30 books and become a multiple New York Times bestselling author. Author with over 9 million books in print, and I know I can help you too. Welcome to the Jorge Cruise Show. Well, it is Friday, the last Friday of May 2020. I don't know where the month went, but it is gone. Uh, Monday we start a new month. It's June 1st, so I'm super excited to end the month with you right now. I have an affirmation, a think fit that I think is going to give you an edge this weekend and make your Friday, I hope, um, something that we all need right now. Because with COVID-19 kind of wrapping up— I hate to say it because I was enjoying it to some degree— but I'm happy that people are staying healthy, that people are not getting sick anymore. It seems we're being very cautious, so let's continue to be cautious. Let's wear our masks, let's wash our hands. But it seems like we can get back to business to some degree. And so with that, I have an affirmation today that I think will give you the edge in this new world that we're about to enter, especially next month. I mean, that's Monday. And I don't know if where you live things have changed already. I know in San Diego restaurants are opening. I went to have a meal on Friday, you know, and I'll probably get a meal tonight or something. Going out, stepping out, you know, it's a little different. Restaurants aren't the same. 6 feet social distancing. You still have to wear a mask when you come in, but obviously you can take it off to eat. And it's this new beginning. So with this new beginning, I want to share with you a ThinkFit that I think will give you what I hope is the faith, the confidence, and I hope the ability to, to go into the world confidently. Because I feel like a lot of times we take risks and we forget we do that. Simple little things like driving our cars, even though some of us may have not not been doing that for a while. We used to do that, I think, all the time, at least I did. And we never thought that, you know, the ability to be injured in a car accident is pretty high, much higher than what COVID-19 was, and yet we drove the car, you know. And sometimes, especially in California, I mean New York as well, there's just a dotted line separating you from cars coming the other direction, right, at 50, 60, 80 miles an hour. So if we can do that, we can step back into the world after COVID-19 and stay safe.. And so today's Think Fit is going to give you that power. I'm going to repeat it 3 times. This is how affirmations work. And then what I want you to do is repeat it with me 3 more times. We'll do it together. Ideally, find a space in your home that has a mirror so you can look at yourself. I know this may sound kind of weird and awkward, but I can tell you an affirmation for me is, is the way that we can ensure our success long term. You know, my philosophy is simple. It's really 3 pillars. It's movement in the morning to jump start and prime your life so you feel good. You force your body to create the dopamine and serotonin you need to feel good. Then you use what we're about to do to keep that momentum going all day, to give you that edge mentally, to make you think fit. And then obviously, you know, I believe in eating fit, and that for me is intermittent fasting. But, uh, You know, check out my website if you're interested on that. A lot of great information there. It's an all-new site, jorgecruise.com. But let's get started with today's, uh, ThinkFit. If you're ready, listen to the following: I am ready to be healed. Think of it as a way to transform your thinking. Think of the word healed as you're ready to really transform what you've been doing, you know. And we need this. So let's say it again: I am ready to be healed. I am ready to be healed. What does that mean to you? Healed doesn't mean you have a disease necessarily, but it means that we may need to get over or heal ourselves of fear. That we may have about going out in public again, you know, and know that we have the ability to do hard things. We've been doing it forever. Like I said, that example of driving vehicles and cars and having faith that no one will hit you, you know, this isn't a religious faith, it's just faith that we can do this, you know. Crossing the street, my goodness, right? You can get hit, you really could, um, but we still do it. You know, and we are ready for this right now. So let's do this together 3 times. I am ready to be healed. Say it with me again. I am ready to be healed. Say it with me this 3rd time. Say it stronger. Stand up tall, chest out, shoulders back. Take a deep breath in. And say the following: I am ready to be healed. Good job. This affirmation is something I would suggest you listen to for the rest of the day, maybe once or twice more. Listen to it over the weekend.

I want to invite you also to take this time to share this podcast with anyone you know that may be hesitating to live their best life, especially now that COVID-19 is calming down, share it with them. Give them that edge. I really appreciate it. Have a great, great weekend, and I'll talk to you back on Monday. Peace and purpose.
