Forward or backward which way will it go – against the grain or in the flow? The choice is yours. It’s up to you. What will YOU do? Making choices sets the vitality wheel in motion. Forward to gain momentum and build vitality with every good choice, or backward slipping gradually further and further into weakness and decline. Will it be results or excuses?
Vitality is your verve, your energy, your life force. Vitality is action; strength of body and mind. Stress undermines your vitality and leads to low energy. Low energy can devolve into lassitude and unhappiness. Unchecked this creates a negative flow of energy which can spiral downward into exhaustion, depression and ill health.
Prevention means to forestall or to effectively stop. Making healthy lifestyle choices both protects and enhances your vitality. The three foundational pillars of prevention are cellular nutrition, regular physical activity and positive mindset. The more you practice the better you get a making healthy lifestyle choices. Regular practice leads to good habits. Good habits transition into a way of being. Living a healthy lifestyle becomes effortless!
So what is choice? Choice is a decision which sets the life force in motion. Your decision affects the way your energy will move. Not making a choice, is a choice! One which will paralyze you and deplete your energy as you struggle with the “push-me-pull-ya” of not doing when you know you should be doing.
Making good choices is supported by:
- Clear Intention – genuine willingness acts as the catalyst to making change
- Curiosity – motivates you to acquire knowledge and seek guidance so that your choices are more informed and achieve better results
- Discipline – is the restraint and self control we must exercise to replace bad habits with good habits
- Patience – give yourself time to change as you learn to commit to your health and well being – which only gets easier as you become hooked to feeling great!
Here it is plain and simple. To spin your vitality wheel you have to make choices. Good choices will create a positive energy loop which will build in momentum and vitalize your life by providing greater protection against stress, disease and unhappiness. Living a healthy lifestyle daily will provide continued support to the complex biological processes necessary for optimal health thus creating a fitness and health reserve which you can rely on to slow down the aging process and speed up recovery from injury, surgery or illness. If you neglect to use your will and your discipline to make better choices, stress will begin to chip away at your vitality and eventually overpower it leaving you at greater risk for disease, depression and premature aging. Cellular deficiency due to unmanaged stress, inadequate nutrition and sedentary lifestyles is cumulative. Prevention is the key to maintaining optimal health, to eliminating pain and to improving quality of life. Take a moment right now and identify one thing you would like to change. And, act on it.
With love, Lisa.
