“We are continuously seeking perfection and happiness”

How often do we wish we can change certain aspects of our life?
How much do we want to become healthier and happier?
How is it that all these quick fix diet and exercise regimes never work?

We can easily recall a time where we have been motivated to change the way we live our life so we can feel happy and healthy, so we can see a difference in the way we look and so we can hear people telling us how much we are different. In most cases, we concentrate only on one element of our life without considering the whole.

We can obtain long term results by considering the whole and not only the food we eat, the exercise we do or don’t. The 3 elements, which should be worked on at the same time and in equal measure for the triangle of health:

FUEL - MIND - BODY

For example, it is the new year, and you have made the new year’s resolution that in 2010 you will look after yourself so you can simply enjoy life fully and so you can be enjoyed for who you are by the people around you. So you look at joining a gym or starting a new diet or meeting new people or starting a new hobby. They are all great ideas, but it doesn’t seem to last or do you loose the motivation quickly? Why us there suddenly obstacles preventing you from doing it? How does it make you feel when you realise that nothing has changed?

So, what can we do?

You simply need to consider the 3 easy to remember elements of the triangle of health:

1. Fuel

How balance is your current food intake? How much are you eating? Is it too much or too little? Are you loosing weight too quickly? How often, and when, do you eat? How do you know it is time to eat?

2. Mind

How much have you got on your mind? What is going on in your life at the moment? How much time have you put aside to answer some important questions? What is happening in your life and how much is it affecting you?

3. Body

What is your body trying to tell you? How much do you feel in touch with your body? Have you noticed how you are breathing? Is it deep, slwo and continuous? How tense are you (in your lower back or shoulders and neck)? What have you done about these recurring pains and aches?

As you begin to notice and understand the 3 important elements of your triangle of health, you will start to make certain decisions to improve your food, to answer and deall with important questions, and to work out at your own pace and level. Over the next weeks and months, you will become more tuned with yourself and in a better place to be a better self.

Enjoy!
