Accept good things from the abundance that is life!

Life is abundant.
It's amazing.
Why then do we sometimes feel 'bad' or 'down'?
Why can't we "snap out of it"?
Well-being is our birthright, but we've got to want it.
Breathe, move, make sound.
Walk in nature ... feel its abundance ... and align with it.

Who cares?

If you don't care about yourself and your appearance,
It's doubtful others will, for long, unless they have to.
Why should they ...
If you can't be bothered?
It's time to take stock.
How do you want to be?
Are you sure?

Whose help do you need?

The gym I go to has expert, free help available all the time, which is great!
They're always willing to offer new ideas and ways to exercise.
Then I have to value myself and my body enough to follow their suggestions.
Generally, I do.
Though, returning today after Christmas and a cold, to three sessions a week was a little tough.
But hey, I'm worth it!
Aren't you?

What can you give up?

I no longer eat sweet biscuits and cake at work.
I eat fruit instead.
I also like raw veg.
Cutting out high-calorie snacks is the key.
Preparing raw veg takes a little more effort than buying fruit.
But it's worth it.
To be healthy.

Giving your body gifts!

Everything you eat or drink is a gift to your body,
'good' or 'bad'!
Feel good about all the gifts you give your body,
not just some of them.
They all count,
so weigh up each and every one,
before they become part of you.

Curious about calories?

A Pre-SI unit of food energy.
Replaced (really?) by Joules.
Each one becoming part of us.
So, how many do you need?
How big do you want to be?
Check the label.
I do.

Starting again?

So here we are ...
At the beginning of another New Year, 2012.
I'm feeling good about the year ahead, excited about my plans.
Particularly my resolution to continue to take good care of my body.
We can all be healthy, if we want.
We need to be careful though.
Trusting our ability to be well ... rejecting all that prevents this.
