Our health doesn't care what season of life you are in.
And the season of life, doesn't care about your health.
It is always a CONSCIOUS choice.
Life is always moving around us.
Sometimes, chaotic and spinning, moving in so many directions, that it takes an orchestra conductor to keep all the pieces moving in harmony. Well at least attempting to.
Sometimes it is slow and suffocating. Progress feels stagnant and stifling.
But life continues to move either way.
And for many, almost all, our health is the first thing to take a back seat to life.
'I'll do that when I have time'
"I'll look at that one day'
'I don't have time'
'Other things are a higher priority right now'
Time IS Life.
I did the same thing. For years. Sacrificing my health, because everything else was a higher priority than me.
Doing 'what I could', but not what I needed.
Our health requires daily thought. Daily conscious connection, to where we are and where we want to be.
Because we don't wake up one day, miraculously healed just by hoping it will be so.
Every day, I see people make sacrifices TO their health, for the sake of things around them.
And in doing so, the domino effect continues.
Short cuts, poor choices and priorities. Lack of sovereignty and agency; letting other people control your health story and journey.
Because the reality is; we are responsible for our health, or lack of.
Every decision we make impacts how we feel, how we move, how we function.
Convenience foods, wrecking havoc on our systems.
Chronic stress, destroying our nervous systems; and you can't REGULATE a broken system. First it has to be healed.
TV, social media and screens, robbing people of so many hours in their day; while saying they have no time to exercise, or stretch, or do any other thing that would benefit their health.
The constant need for more; keeping people in an endless cycle.
And a system that is so broken, focused on reactive 'health care', that is designed to keep you sick.
We have created a world of illness.
And instead of fighting for health and vitality; consciously, everyday; many have almost given up the hope of ever feeling alive and healed. Accepting that this is just how things are and will be.
I had. I had given up hope that I would ever feel 'well' again.
But one day, I chose to take radical ownership of my health, and I fought back with everything I had.
I made no excuses.
I sacrificed everything I was guided to sacrifice.
I showed up daily, regardless of what else needed doing.
'Cure the incurable' was my inner knowing.
'My body is miraculous and knows how to heal itself', my daily inner battle cry.
(I will share more of my journey through it in another post)
Because without HEALTH, we have no life.
We may be living, but living without health and vitality; only the constant aches, pains, conditions, illnesses, labels, low energy, the list goes on; isn't really much of a life, is it.
We wonder why we get sick. And all we have to do is look at every choice we are making in our lives, to see why we get sick.
Your health doesn't care what season it is. It doesn't care what other priorities you have.
Health requires attention.
Illness is the result without it.
We are living so far from how humans were designed to live. Thinking all of this progress is helping us. When in fact, it is destroying the very thing that we require to survive.
So maybe, just for today, you can ask yourself
'Where am I currently sacrificing my health, for the sake of something else'.
Because we only have this one beautiful life, and this one beautiful human body, heart and mind.
Maybe it's time to start loving it back to life.
Not tomorrow.
Today.
Because, it's truly all we have.
Breathe a little deeper.
Go touch grass.
