It that time of year again when we are more inclined to “change our
ways”, eat healthier, lose weight, exercise daily, drink less alcohol,
quit the habit, save more money, ….. The list is endless.
I also find Spring, New Years, similar to birthdays, a time of
reflection as well as excitement for what lies ahead. So this year I
have thought about why we so often fail to achieve our goals.
I specifically named my business THRIVE homeopathy because I want to
support my clients so that they can reach their goals and thrive
mentally, emotionally and physically. Common reasons are past traumas,
stress, grief, worries and fears which hold us back from making the
necessary changes and we seem stuck in a vicious circle of addictive or
damaging behaviour. As a homeopath it is important to listen to a
person’s full story, understand the pattern and to find a safe and
natural medicine that will give the right stimulus to kick the habit,
change and heal. Just recently a client who has been a major sugar
addict has no sugar cravings since taking a single dose of the
prescribed homeopathic remedy.
Another main reason for failure is because we aren’t truly willing to
make the required sacrifice to achieve that goal. In that case you are
setting yourself up for disappointment from the start. Why even bother
as you are only going to feel worse? If you want to be slim again but
don’t give up fatty and sugary foods well then it won’t happen. Yes,
there is a sacrifice or effort behind achieving goals and that is also
why we are so proud when we reach them.
I advise my clients to think about what effort they are truly willing
and able to do and then to formulate their resolution accordingly. A
complete lifestyle change is very hard but doable for some of us. Don't
forget that we act upon formed habitual behaviour and it takes between
2-6 months to deeply ingrain new patterns so that they become natural
and effortless.
My suggestion to you for your next resolution is to be kind to yourself
and to take best care of the mind, body and soul you have been given.
