Here is to change!
Here is to a healthier me!
So I got this straight up brilliant idea to write DAILY about the things I do each day in order to view my progress. At first I thought I would just right in a paper journal that I can touch and flip through pages, but then I guess I just figured it would be harder for me to stick to writing each day.
Then I thought how about an online journal, then relized I am not too tech savvy, online journal seems like I don't know just not me.... and I have no clue how to go about it all! Ha
So I was like hey, I know how to blog so why don't I just create a blog specific to this purpose. Im most likely not gonna make this public, but I feel others may stumble upon it and that is all good in the hood.
So tonight I came up with all this so yeah... the real deal will start tomorrow.
I am thinking this is pretty much andevine thing for me to do. A thought sent to me from God. :) Call me crazy if you wish, but there aint no way this girl came up with this on her own! I mean wayyyy too mich work!
But my thoughts and prayers as of late have been very concentrated on creang anhealthier me. And I am talking about all around healthier! I made a give year plan, I have set some monthly goals, weekly goals, and daily goals. Do I hit em all? Well no. But I find that when I have more things that I have dedicated towrads my goals such as my love my oh so lovely wellness board, my food journal, and now this daily summary of my happenings to achieve my goals, I will be way more likely to succeed. If I hold myself accountable for recording and reminding myself of where I want to be.
Why so concerned about my overall well-being? Funny you should ask! I have had one heck of a year filled with health concerns and I am talking about physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual. It is pretty safe to say that I majorly suffered in All of these areas as of...well basically January 2013. Wowza! Yeah... its been interesting.
So... I once had this class about women's health and it talked a lot about holistic living. I used to just focus a lot on my physical appearance and what I put into my mouth as being healthynor unhealthy. Sadly it took a lot of drama and craziness and quite an extreme rollercoaster for me to hit this point of truly understanding what my professor so ardently lectured and assigned stuff tonus about this dang holistic view, to soak into my thick skull.
I finally recognized that if one area suffers than the rest of my health will suffer. And that health was not do you execize and eat healthy, it was and is much more. I started to realize that for me to be truly healthy I need to set goals in all areas and by improving just one area and focusing on that my other areas will improve slightly, however all areas need lots of time, attention, and some tender lovin.
So once I pretty much felt a hit the bottom of the cliff I ran to and jumped off of, that I needed to create a holistic healing process for all the pains and hardships.
So I have been striving to incorporate essential oils, yoga, exercize, meditation, learning of Christ, scripture reading, intelectual feeding, social outings, and so on into my life each day or week... whatever is appropriate for it.
And so I now make a record of these things so I can better asess my day and see where I lack and to map out a better plan of improvement. Plus it will be kinda cool to see where I stary off and where I will end up! Im hoping that in five months there will be some pretty significant changes in me. That is my plan anyways.
So until tomorrow sweet blog!
