🗣 Real talk:
Few things motivate healthier choices better than waking up with the meat sweats, heartburn, a hangover, or a say … a global pandemic.
If the past few years have taught us anything, it’s that our health is one of our most prized possessions.
But that doesn’t mean that getting or staying healthy is easy.
We try something new and move forward, or upward, bubbling with excitement and energy.
Then we cycle. Life throws us a situation that tests our new approach. Progress pauses, or dips downward, or goes backward.
Up, down, forward, back.
There are a number of perfectly good reasons for this:
🔵Maybe we need to go back to re-open or revisit something — to reconsider an idea that didn’t grab us right away, or address a question we avoided answering when first asked.
🔵Maybe we need downtime — to think, reflect, regroup, reboot, or incubate something new.
🔵Maybe we need to regress briefly — to dip into our old selves or old habits and remember why we are building new ones, like visiting an ex to remember why you left them.
🔵Maybe we need to repeat something — to practice, drill, and/or test our skills under different conditions.
🌟Or maybe it’s that we simply don’t have the skills yet to reach the next level of our progression and, like everything else in life, we need to accept that doing things badly is a necessary precursor to doing them well.🌟
DM me to learn more about how overindulgence can be part of the process.
