MAKING HEALTHY CHOICES

I can make healthy choices if I choose to do so.  No one else is responsible for the choices I make.  There are times when I like to blame other people or situations for my feelings and actions.  I tell myself: ‘I’m too tired to go for a walk today’ or ‘I’d rather eat junk food than fix a healthy meal’ or ‘I don’t have time to meditate or be still’; but I am aware that these are excuses and easy outs.  The consequence of continual poor choices tends to be illness, depression, and shame and these outcomes are not options I want in my life.

Abundance surrounds me and today I will be more conscious of the wide range of choice I have when I am tempted to fall into old familiar routines and habits.  I can determine what will support my health and well-being and motivate myself to move in that direction.  I choose to see myself as empowered and responsible rather than stuck in a victim mode.  Today I choose life and will make one healthy choice at a time.
