Nutritional Facts and Information – do you really need more

What do You Need to Know?

It may be that you need more information.  Many of us believe if we have that one more fact we will know just what we need to make us healthier, more beautiful, more handsome, and cause us to live longer in that state. I don’t think this is true. I think you know most of what you need to know and that with very few more facts, could live a long and healthy life.  It isn’t more facts and figures and information that is needed.

What do You Need to Do?

It isn’t knowing, it is doing that makes the difference.  You need to do more of the things you already know and then add more knowledge that helps you take better action. Let me ask you a few questions.

• Do you think you are getting enough to eat?
• What foods do you need to eat more of or less of than you do right now?
• What is your vision of perfect nutrition for you? How does that vision look, feel, sound and smell?
• Can you write some affirming statements about bringing that vision into reality in your life?
• Write down some strengths you have in this area and some success you have had in doing something like this.
• What struggles might you have in trying to do this?
• What is one thing you could do to begin to bring this vision into reality? When would you do this?

It is the gap between knowing and doing that is the larger problem.

You know enough to get started. You either don’t believe you can do it or don’t see the benefit in trying.  Do you ever tell yourself things like -

• I can’t do this
• I tried that and it did not work for me
• This is just the way I am, it is in my genes
• I am lazy and just like sweets way too much
• I am a big eater, I need all that I eat
• I think I look bad when I am thinner

For most of us it is not lack of knowledge, but lack of application of knowledge.  The thing that stops us most from applying that knowledge is how we talk to ourselves.  You can find some good articles on this blog on that topic. I want to stress this point now, having a positive, real affirmation that you say and associate with a mind-body practice as simple as gently massaging your ears will help you move in the direction you want to go.  Remember, this is a journey, and you are a complex being.  It may be you already have strengths to help you with nutrition and it may be that your gut will tell you, nutrition is not the problem. When you look at your life, and assess yourself in 12 different areas represented on the picture of the wheel you see in this article, you may find that strengthening another area will help you improve that area and your nutrition.
