Your Worst Enemy
When it comes to the state of your health, you may be your own
worst enemy.
This is actually good news. You may not be able to control how
others treat you, but you certainly have control over the way
you treat yourself! In order to treat yourself the best, you
need to learn how. From there, figure out where you are
off-track and then take the reins!
What are the attributes of good health? We know it when we see
it:
-Excellent bone structure -Erect posture -Naturally pink cheeks
-Flawless skin -Sparkling eyes -Luxuriant, glossy hair
-Rhythmical, graceful movements -Buoyant energy -Strong, white
teeth
You can probably think of people who fit this description. They
seem to literally glow with strength and vitality. How do you
compare?
What you eat may be affecting your ability to display these
attributes for yourself. While looking healthy is great, feeling
healthy is even better, and what you put into your body can
affect this ability, as well as making you look and feel tired
and listless, while putting you on the path to disease.
A diet "rich" in refined foods can lead to the following:
-Obesity -Heart disease -Stroke -Breast cancer -Prostate cancer
-Arthritis -Osteoporosis -Sexual dysfunction -Birth defects
-Infertility -Diabetes -Depression
If you had to choose one of these lists for yourself, there is
little doubt that your preference would be for the list of
attributes. Why be anything less than your ultimate potential,
especially when it is something you have the power to achieve?
Unfortunately, that is seemingly what people do. They eat
refined
foods, and starve their bodies of a certain amount of
vitamins, minerals, trace elements, fiber, and phytochemicals.
It becomes an endless cycle of cravings and hunger pangs, little
to no energy, and a list of physical complaints.
You deserve better. Your body deserves the very best that you
can provide. More importantly, from wherever you start today,
you can heal yourself and turn around those habits that lead to
deterioration. Superb nutrition does not require a prescription
from your doctor, a lengthy stay at a health spa, or a personal
chef. You have the power to control what you put into your body
and how your body is treated. By taking the time to educate
yourself on whole foods nutrition, and then working to
incorporate some basic foods and new recipes into your daily
eating, you are well on your way to having the level of health
that you were born to have!
An all-or-nothing approach is what makes people feel overwhelmed
and out of control. Just take one step, today. Drink water in
place of a soda, put some beans on the stove to soak for a bean
soup, eat an apple. Start with something, and add on to that
foundation daily.
Look forward to creating vitality and displaying your own inner
glow!
