Diet and Loving Yourself

DIET AND LOVING YOURSELF

It’s my third day of being conscious of the way I treat myself. I overslept a little but noticed a good effect of sleep in my skin. I also chose the best towel today when I washed my face.

Today I’ve noticed how our diets are greatly related to our relationship with ourselves.

For instance, imagine for a moment being in charge of the food of your loved ones. Will you be happy if your loved ones almost starve themselves to death and deprive themselves of food that they enjoy? On the other hand, would you rather that they overeat and eat foods that will make them obese and kill them later on due to high blood pressure or diabetes? Of course not!

You’d want them to eat healthy foods and observe discipline in their diets. At the same time, you’d want them to enjoy their favorite foods once in a while – crabs, chocolate, pasta, fried and grilled foods.

The same should be the way we treat ourselves. The key to loving yourself is BALANCE.

Are you searching for hope? Download the e-book today - "Where Hope Can Be Found". The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.

Hi Jocelyn,

Just want to say that I like this series you’re doing about loving yourself. Thanks for sharing what you’re doing. And don’t feel guilty at all about it! If everyone would just take care of themselves and be happy, there would be far less trouble in the world.
