In spite of the consequences of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, self-loathing, depression, over-weight unhealthy bodies, and shortened lives, we persist with unhealthy eating and inadequate exercise. Why is that?[/b]
To implement a whole food eating plan, and become physically active is clinically proven to create optimal health, decrease health risks, and promote weight loss.
For real success and benefits though, we need to be able to consistently maintain healthy eating and physical activity as a lifestyle. This is where we fail.
We spend over 60 billion dollars a year in North America on weight loss, diet and exercise. However, we continuously struggle to maintain and apply the knowledge we learn long term as a way of life. If these were real lasting solutions the societal health problems we see would be less dramatic.
Weight loss, long term weight management, and optimal health require a commitment that goes beyond diet and exercise alone.
There is so much more to consider in the complexities of our biggest modern health problem. We need to look deeper for answers. The North American weight problems we see today encompass the mental, emotional, physical, societal and cultural aspects of our lives.
Research and statistics show that 60% of North Americans are affected by poor unhealthy eating habits. Unwanted weight gain, and many physical and mental health risks are often the result. However, in spite of these profound consequences we continue with unhealthy choices, mindless eating, and no physical activity.
Poor nutrition and sedentary lifestyles have a profound impact on the majority of us today. As a society we are under exercised, overfed, and undernourished. We find our self influenced by chronic dieting, pre-occupation with food, our weight, and body image. It is imperative that adequate knowledge and skills be developed to maintain a balanced lifestyle free from these obsessions.
The grip of poor nutrition and unhealthy sedentary lifestyles requires a holistic approach.
The process of long term weight management starts by understanding that many of our self defeating behaviours stem from negative beliefs and unproductive attitudes. Self Discovery is the only way to make lasting change by identifying and challenging unproductive attitudes, negative beliefs and years of self defeating behavioural programming.
Self Discovery will assist you in seeing the root causes to your problems and give you the keys to dealing with them.
Being educated, controlling our food choices, and loosing the pre-occupation with weight, weight loss and body image allows us to have a new sense of freedom.
