I've gained weight again; this notice from my body tells me things aren't working properly. My life-style has become sloppy: I eat standing up, alone, in the car, and with lenience toward content. I lack a deep sense of being alive, passionate, and connected.
I plan to create the vitality and wonder I crave and generate resources for myself with some simple rules: many of them related to eating but I also need to tend to the psychology that led me astray. I want a life full of healthy food, friends, and explorations. I believe I will need to read more, and seek out social opportunities. I must keep learning.
Yesterday I went to a wellness program through my work. Essentially this put me up to noting that I eat too far from natural. My goals involve eating 4 servings of fruit, 6 vegetable servings, drink 9 cups of water, and log 30 minutes of physical activity a day. That's a good place to start. Along with that, I am reading Louise L. Hay's book, You Can Heal Your Life.
The philosophy of my approach is based in my belief that what you focus on expands and that each of us is responsible for our experiences. I am the only one with power over my experience. As I write this, I think of examples from POWs. I will look for books that support my theory.
Meanwhile, I'd like to use this as a place to chart my growth, hold myself accountable, and share my experiences. So, if you're reading, feel free to say hi or share. I need some support.
Thanks for peeking at my journey. I wish you the best on yours!
