ThePeopleAlchemist Edit: Be your best self - #SmashYourCeiling, change starts from within -Business & Lifestyle Experimentation for #TheWomanAlchemist

Many of us struggle with self-love and acceptance when it comes to our body. This continuous love-hate relationship relies on this external ideal of unattainable (and filtered) perfection. And in this continuous battle, we punish and torture ourselves with diets. I beg you: don't. If you are planning to go/start another diet, I beg you: don't. Millions of people start one every day - the majority stop because they do not work. And this is not because people do not try hard enough. It's because most diets are impossible to stick to (unless you live on a desert island, alone and have no life whatsoever). If they worked, you wouldn't have to keep trying new ones. How many have you tried in your life so far? I thought so. Moreover, 80% of dieters put weight back on and more than what they lost in the first place - imagine that? Most diets promise fast results and focus on restrictions, limiting what, how and when you eat. No, one can survive in constant deprivation. And they make you feel like you failed when the diet doesn't stick. You haven't. All the false promises have failed you. Take a stand, don't torture yourself or make a commitment that won't stick. Think of your health first. Treat your body with love and kindness. And then commit to a "lifestyle" that works for you. Self-acceptance is the key and doorway to our authentic power and Best Self. PS: Did you know that May is National Walking Month too? So why not help celebrate by organising your own walk this May and raise money for the Britsh Heart Foundation's life-saving research. Better than a diet, cheaper. And if you do not live in the UK, you can still organise your own charity walk and donate money to your local heart association. See you tomorrow x Change starts from within; that’s why training your consciousness should be your Priority Numero 1 – a daily practice to silence your inner critic.
