Our bundle of carbon/water bodies made perfectly imperfect by nature, were NOT meant to be robotically obedient. Yet, the only thing we are in perfect control over in this uncontrollable world is our ability to choose.
Read that again!
Our ability to choose can be our best blessing or our worst curse. Our choices are what create us. Our mindsets are crafted by how we CHOOSE to let the past effect vs. teach us and the future intimidate vs. influence us. Our attitudes are wound by how CHOOSE to react to situations. AND our bodies are sculpted by what food we CHOOSE to let in and what movement we CHOOSE to preform.
Our daily nutrition chooses pave the way of a healthy lifestyle or the way to dietary inflicted diseases. YET, the path to a healthy life is not perfect. It is BALANCED.
Structure is a rare commitment and dedication is a beautiful challenge, BUT restriction at level 100% is foolish. If burnout and rebound is the end goal, by all means restrict.
Balance is choosing what makes us feel fueled, healed, energetic, satisfied and HUMAN. Balance is choosing MOSTLY things that are healing for our bodies with SOME things that are fun for your well-being. Balance is staying on track with what’s nutritious even after enjoying what’s not as nutritious. Balance saves us from the crash that comes after robotic obedience. Balance is choosing to make proper decisions for our physical health while allowing chooses that benefit our mental health.
