it's an off day. it's 11:11. i might meet 1 or 2 friends. except this and some work, I'm free today, to devote my time for acts that will help me to live healthily:
run, riding the bike, power workout at the gym, power exercises, a walk, yoga at home,
making salad, cooking a dish that expires after 3 days, eating lettuce, soaking lentils for sprouting, reading about health, processing the material I read, weighing myself, reading "raw bundle", going to nature (the park, the beach), etc.
I carry extra fat. what can I do?
I'm tired because I smoked.
what can I do to release the coffee, release the bread, release the cigarettes?
it's the thought I think. I should change the way I think, namely, I should changes my thought.
I should observe my thoughts as entities. I should spot thoughts that trigger me to act in an unhealthy way, and before I act this way, I should stop the train of thought there. I should initiate other thoughts then, constructive thoughts, thoughts that will divert me from the old habits, from destructive patterns of behavior into new healthy behavior.
an example:
I had a tough day at work. I used my nervous energy, my electrical energy, my battery is low, and I want to charge it quickly, stimulate my body, awake it, lift it, fuel myself in a quick dense food.
On my way home I stop in a falafel place, I eat a falafel, fries and then there's coffee and cigarette.
so, let's say this is how the train of thoughts looks like:
this day is over
I'm out of here (workplace)
I'm exhausted,
I want to eat
(till now it's ok)
I don't want to eat my food*
what can I eat?
Let's eat falafel*
with fries*
after eating
let's drink coffee*
with cigarette*
there are much more thoughts.
so, all the thoughts that are marked with * should be change, substituted.
I don't want to eat my food*
I should tell myself: this is a bad thought. I have food at home. I'll quickly cook. I can cook potatoes. there is canned beans. I will chop lettuce and tomato, I'll make tahini and get a rest.
everything is in my mind.
