Next week is Memorial Day, where we honor those who have carved the way, creating the road for the present generation. For many people, Memorial Day is a sad, morbid holiday, which focuses on death and the dead. But for me, Memorial Day is a celebration of hard work and sacrifice – not only of our service men, but all those before us who made our personal lives better. Another reason I love Memorial Day is it kicks off summer! Yea, finally the end of short days and bad weather and the promise of sunny, carefree days of summer.
It is also the beginning of fewer layers of clothing, lots of parties, and the realization that perhaps you are not too happy with what has become of your physique over the winter. So, let’s make a choice. What is your mind chatter going to be? I’m a slob; I can’t go anywhere; I can’t enjoy the fun activities of summer because of my body; I’ve done it again! Or is it going to be: Yea, fresh fruit, in season vegetables, lots of fun movement, and social gatherings that feed me emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Choose the latter; it will make all the difference in your ability to be healthy. Negative mind chatter will always lead you to the quick fix – food. Positive mind chatter will always lead you to healthy choices and a happier life.
This Memorial Day, make a choice. Choose to focus on celebrating life, great sacrifice, and a great life. Kick off the summer with positive mind chatter, focusing on good food, friends, family, and good health!
