The Comfort Zone (aka False Wellness)

Do you know anyone that’s maybe a little older, has some aches and pains, doesn’t sleep well, complains of stomach issues, takes several over the counter medications as well as prescription medications?  Do they seem frustrated?  Do they blame their doctors?  Are they unsure how they got this way and have accepted that this is just a part if ageing?  Are they unhappy that their state of health conflicts with their hobbies, family, work and goals in life?  Do you think if they could rewind the clock they might do something different in their life, being more proactive to continue feeling good while they were feeling good?   Do you suppose their proactive strategy would involve more lifestyle behaviours instead of more medications and surgery?   Their answer would likely be a resounding YES!  Better yet- ask them yourself!

So then here you are, young, “healthy”, not much to complain about and doing absolutely nothing to stay that way.  Sure you eat salad occasionally, buy the low fat version of foods, take the dog for a walk every day and see your medical doctor for antibiotics when you have get a sore throat.  Let’s see where that gets you in 10, 20 years….OR you could do something now to break out of the COMFORT ZONE (also known as FALSE WELLNESS) and start moving towards real health and sustainable wellness.
