FIRST
IMPORTANT POINT FOR GOOD HEALTH DON'T 'BEAT YOURSELF UP' for
not being perfect in your approach to healthcare.
In other words - don't criticise yourself for failing to change.
This is a common habit which is very destructive for you - so it is
unhealthy. Just say to yourself the affirmation: "I am always
always doing the best I can for my health, in the situation in
which I find myself, considering the resources I have at my
disposal."
This is a
great belief which I would recommend you adopt. If you
say it over and over many times over the next couple of months, it
will get into your subconscious and become your own. Keep it up,
and this time next year you will believe it 100%! Try it - you may
be pleasantly surprised.
The reason this is such a good belief is that it
takes away guilt.
But isn't some guilt good? I don't think so. The problem with guilt
is, if you beat yourself up for a bad habit, and then pile guilt on
top of that - you double the negative effect on yourself. This
makes it much harder to deal with the original problem.
Instead, accept that you will never be perfect (which is obviously
true); and accept that you are going to try your hardest to do
things a tiny bit better each day.
Think it through - improving things just a tiny bit better each day
adds up to a lot over the course of a month, or a year. But you
must do that tiny bit each day - however tiny it may be.
Be kind to yourself - you're doing the best you can!
