Doors of Awareness to Optimal Health and Fitness(Part 2 of 2)
 

When you started making better food and lifestyle choices, you had no idea that eating better was not just about food and the physical body. You had no idea that food, along with other wise choices, had the power not only to transform your physical body, but it had the power to transform your emotional and mental well-being also.

We are not just talking about food. We are talking about the gifts of a better life.

Now, after walking through two doors, to your utter amazement, a third door stands before you. You have walked through that first door to better physical health, fitness, and well-being through making wiser daily food and lifestyle choices. You have walked through that second door to better mental and emotional health and well-being. And now a third door stands before you.

As you slowly open it, you are surrounded by bright light which touches your very soul and fills you up from the inside out. You are standing on the threshold of discovering the “why” part of you. You know what you are made of and who you are, and now unfolding before you, are the most important questions of all: Why you are here? What is your passion? What is your mission? What is your higher purpose? Are you on the right life path?

Is your life aligned with your heart and your intentions?

With your health and beauty, talents, and uniqueness, how can you make a difference in the lives of those people you touch?

No longer encumbered by compromised emotions, thoughts, and physical incapacities, you now have the energy, the desire, and ultimately the freedom to pursue these soul-searching questions and consciously create your ideal life.

And, this, my friends, is what true health is all about—optimal physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being so that you can consciously create your ideal life. And it all starts with a conscious thought, a conscious choice, and a commitment to you.

Allow me to share this quote with you by Goethe:

“Until one is committed there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness.

“Concerning all acts of initiative and creation there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too.

“All sorts of things occur to help one that would otherwise never have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, reining in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way.

“Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute. Whatever you can do, or dream you can…begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Only engage and then the mind grows heated; Begin and then the work will be complete.”

By Goethe

Are you committed to your body, your health and your life? Are you in earnest? Then seize this very minute and grab on tight.

It’s time, right now, to take that first step to a whole new you.
