Pleasure or Pain

Functional Medicine Practitioner & Transformational Coach: Anti-ageing + Weight Loss ??
When it comes to taking action and making changes in our lives, we are almost always motivated by one of two things: pleasure or pain.
If the perception of pleasure is greater than the perception of pain then we are likely to take action and push ourselves out of our comfort zone. On the other hand, if the perception of pain is greater than the perception of pleasure then we may be slower to act, or resist change altogether.
This understanding is especially relevant when it comes to taking steps towards bettering our health; often times, people who are aware of their issues with health may be more inclined to make changes than those who don’t recognize that there’s a problem in the first place.
Therefore, when attempting to encourage someone to improve their health it’s important to make sure that we don’t pressure them into doing something they don’t want – instead, we should focus on providing support and helping them realize that taking responsible steps towards healthier habits can bring about tremendous amounts of joy and fulfilment.
Ultimately, it all boils down the power of choice—we should never try to force someone into making life changes but instead provide them with access to resources that can help inform healthier decisions.?
Making a decision to stop sugar ??
When it comes to maintaining any commitment, there will be moments of tension, such as when you have the goal to cut out sugar yet you find yourself caught in front of a bakery window with your craving for a delicious sweet chocolate cake. In these moments, it is essential to capitalize on the power of having a choice rather than simply succumbing to temptation. When we realize that we have the capacity to make our own decisions, this can lead us to focus on why we are pursuing our goals in the first place. After all, making positive changes in our life often involves acknowledging that we deserve better for ourselves.?
