The Proactive Healthstyle
To change our health we first need to change our idea of what health is.
We limit our health potential. We limit it because we are conditioned to believe that health is an absense of illness. Although that is true, its only a very small part of the truth. Our health is so much more.
Our mainstream health culture has conditioned us with the belief that health is 'an absense of illness'. And that is really tragic because we are dying from these beliefs. I have no doubt that you are frustrated by health issues. Most of us are, and we all have stories to tell.
We respond fearfully to the threats of cancer, infection & chronic disease. We get so engrossed in this fear based idea we forget to look up and see what the possibility of great health is.
The other idea we have about health in this society is that health is about our physical body. We even look at mental illness as a disruption of brain chemistry. Although we pay lip-service to being holistic, in truth we don't practice it at all.
Imagine the difference of how you live life if your fudamental belief is that health is the fulfillment of your full potential mind-body & spirit?
For example let’s say your experiencing chronic lower back pain. Conventional wisdom would have you take pain killers and maybe even go for a massage or a chiropractic treatment.
In a holistic health-based model you’d reach deeper. Much deeper. What is the emotional connection? Where are you carrying stress in your body? How are you using your body? What is your body saying to you? Are your needs being met?
In a holistic model you’d still take something to alleviate the immediate pain but you’d spend more energy on understanding what is underlying the physical manifestation of pain. And then you'd change. You'd change the underlying factors that contribute to your lower back pain because that lower back pain isn't normal.
When you get this curious about yourself you”re not only going to resolve the physical pain you’re going to do some emotional healing and get to know yourself better. You’ll probably release some limiting beliefs or discover some truths about yourself that you hadn’t brought to light before.
It is time to redefine how we see health. Let's move beyond prevention as our highest goal!
By redefining our belief of what health is, we automatically change our behaviour. One behaviour is fear-based, we are avoiding getting sick. The other is growth-based, we are actively pursuing our highest potential.
Think about it. What lifestyle will create the better quality of life. Reacting to health threats and practicing prevention habits like quitting smoking and going for regular medical checkups or caring for ourselves and structuring our lives to maxamize our potential; mind-body & spirit.
Avoiding sickness and pursing health are very, very different. A good analogy is war and peace. Peace is not just an absense of war . Peace is thriving, creative, fruitful, secure, joyful, expresive, nuturing...it is so much more than just not war.
Instead of just settling for just not being sick, let’s blow the limit on what health can be. Believing and truly embracing the concept that our health is a holistic expression of what we are changes how we react.
Joy comes from being more deeply engaged in your own life and being your authentic self.
Take a moment and think about what happens to you when you redefine your health as growing into your full potential?
