We know when we feel off, not right, and unhealthy. This can be physically or emotionally. Yet, we continue to accommodate and even accept the situation. Our body and mind can only take so much before it breaks. Sometimes we don't even realize this is happening until we are lying face down in our own hopelessness.
Other times, we are very aware of what's happening and we tough it out day after day. Another scenario where the body will take you down eventually. We can't out-fight a crappy mental or physical game. Stress is a killer and maintaining an unhealthy lifestyle is just as bad.
How often do you take inventory of your life? Are you accommodating joint pain and illness from eating unhealthy foods leading to being overweight? Are life's circumstances so stressful to the point of causing depression and anxiety? What's going on at home in your personal relationships? Is your home a peaceful sanctuary or a war zone? How about the job? Are you happy and doing what you've always envisioned or burdened by the thought?
We are meant to live a happy, healthy life. The unfortunate truth is we choose to accommodate unhealthy. We eat and drink things we shouldn't, become couch potatoes and drown in our own self pity. Isn't it time we stop accommodating unhealthy and start fixing the problem? If you don't know where to begin, ask for help. No shame or stigma about needing assistance sometimes. We've all been there. Society puts "shaming" on every human topic ad nauseam. If seeking help from a professional gets you on the right track, then go for it. I suggest an expert in the area of your struggle.
If you want to adopt a healthy lifestyle, consult with a qualified personal trainer, nutritionist, or registered dietition. Making a doctor's appointment to discuss your stress and seeing a licensed counselor or therapist may be helpful. Check out your local church and talk to a pastor. If the marriage is suffering, sometimes all you need is a little help from a licensed marriage and family counselor. You have choices!
What it boils down to is changing your life for the better. It requires recognition of the problem and a willingness to fix it. There is nothing healthy about accommodating unhealthy. You can either sit and wallow where you are, or put on your "fix-it" attitude. Straight talk in fitness love! Stay Healthy~
