4 rules of eating that decrease stress and feel good
TRANSCRIPT
4 Simple Dietary Guidelines for Healthy, Joyful, Guilt-free Eating
1. Don’t stop eating bad things – increase the
good stuff!
The problem: A lot of us take the fun and
enjoyment out of eating by making the main
focus avoiding bad stuff.
The solution: Stop thinking about what not to
eat – forgive everything you do from here on.
Then, simply add something healthy. If your
focus used to be, “okay, I can’t eat this thing
that I love”, it should now be “okay, I’ll eat this
thing that I love and add this healthy thing”.
2.
Feel good when eating, whatever you’re
eating.
If you want to simplify, and remove the guilt and stress around, eating for those you love, it will take you 1 sec to share this with your friends, done by blicking on the links to the right (I know, they are beautiful)
The problem: A lot of us have learned to
connect negative feelings to eating. We eat
really badly, and beat ourselves up over it
(sometimes even feeling like the day is lost, and
stop taking things seriously that day, because
“I’ve failed anyway”).
If we have our bar set high – for our diet – and
fail to live up to that, we beat ourselves up over
that.
But, the question is… does feeling bad ever help
us…? No – all feeling bad does is make us reach
for doing things that make us feel comfortable.
…And one of those things is food. So we eat
badly, feel bad about it, and eat more bad stuff.
How you feel while eating has a bigger effect
than what you’re eating. Why…? Because,
feeling stressed/sad/overwhelmed because of
what you’re eating will likely turn into a habit,
and feeling like that several times every day is
really, really bad.
The solution:
First of all, just relax. You’re eating what you’re
eating, and you can choose to do it or not to do
it. If you choose to do it, then let it go and
realize that this is where you’re at right now –
you’ve been eating badly, your eating habits
have not been awesome, and now you’re taking
steps in the right direction.
So, what can you do to feel really good while
eating, aside from forgiving yourself…? Relax
and just eat. What I mean is, don’t think about
everything that has happened during the day,
or that might happen or what this or that might
mean, but just taste the food, breathe and take
a time to unwind.
3. Accept that this is where you’re at, right now,
in your diet
Remember, implementing habits takes a long
time. If you take the “have to get it handled
now”, you’re heading toward burnout and a
100% guaranteed failure as far as the habit
goes. That stress will, by far, beat out any
health benefits eating the stuff would have
given (and, will remain once you’ve failed the
habit – which probably won’t be long).
Instead, use the first rule – to add good stuff
rather than eradicate bad stuff – and then just
sit and relax, knowing that just progressing
forward, taking small steps at a time, and
relaxing while eating will take you further than
anything else (and that the progression only
accelerates with time).
4. Healthy stuff is way tastier than you think (and
it gets better)
The problem: When thinking about eating
better, one of the main concerns that come up
is “I guess I’ll have to get used to food that
doesn’t taste great”. And that’s a problem, but
based on very loose grounds.
The solution: First of all, healthy stuff can be
prepared in a million really, tasty ways. So, if
you like frying things, fry something healthy! It
still tastes fried. If you want to make sure to eat
greens but dislike the “green” taste, make some
incredibly simple salad dressing – from 2 parts
olive oil, 1 part vinegar and spices - and pour
over it.
The solution: This may be the most powerful,
and certainly most surprising truth: our taste
changes. It’s really, really hard – when sitting
there, trying to chew on wet, slimy spinach – to
think that you’d ever enjoy it. But, again: it can
be improved with dressing. And… over time, if
you just start to eat healthier, and gradually
decrease dependency on sugar, you will start
deeply appreciating the taste of something
fresh, something alive and most of all, you’ll
appreciate the way it makes you feel
afterwards.
So, what do you think…? Not that it’s important – your thoughts on some random dude’s approach to eating – but how will this affect day-to-day reality for you…? I mean, will you read something like this – with the potential to let go of food-connected guilt, make what’s good for you something you want to eat and more – and forget about it..?
So, again – how will this become part of your life…? And it’s not about following these exact rules (although I have to say they are pretty badass), but about following something that keeps you from whatever you’ve been held back by before (and, god forbid, mainstream media’s health brain wash). If you’d my feedback on plugging these rules into your life, I’m more than happy to give it to you. If you’d like it, just hit me up (and why not add me!) on: Email: [email protected]

The Simple, Relaxed, Common Sense Approach to Working Out
If you're tired of:
Wasting your time trying to make sense of the "free" (time-, energy- and peace-of-mind wasting) youtube workout videos (and getting nowhere)
...feeling, embarrassed, stared at or ripped off by sharing-nothing-valuable personal trainers, in the gym...
...And you want to build a gym-independent life-time workout skill, using a method where working out is fun, relaxed and interesting
...Then just click here
Maybe, at this point, you’re saying to yourself, something like it “Damn, it would be awesome if everything having to do with health could be this relaxed, forgiving and common sense…” If you like the health-approach, here, in these free resources - the simplicity, the breathe of fresh air, the focus on enjoyment, the acceptance of mistake, the clarity - then you'll love what I have to talk to you about now... It's something created for people like you - people with an actual life, who want to live life more than anything else, but at the same time know life is 10x better with great health. ...And is stuck in a huge dilemma.
I created a simple,incredibly low time-requirement health course,all about living an amazing life without having your health suffer (in fact, taking simple steps to an amazing life is, in my approach, what gives amazing health; which is just as cool as it sounds).
…Simple, that doesn’t take a lot of time or work, where you just dothe absolute most important things and forget the rest even exist (what would that do to stress levels, and how much more energy would you have to put on what you actually want to have energy for; how much more enjoyable would the ice cream be, how much more of your nights could you count as “magical” because you let go of that nagging, “is this healthy” voice, when eating or drinking or something, because you knew the 20% that made 80% of the difference and you kept it to that…? How much more could you enjoy people, and they enjoy you, if you didn’t have this constant, unconscious or conscious, health-nagging, and could instead just let go).
…Where you didn’t have to go spend hours learning abouthealth, because the homework had already been done by somebody else, who condensed it into bite-sized pieces for you to just go and apply (how much time, mental energy and positive emotions does this free up for the person who has to be healthy yet hates the thought of studying minutiae..? And what kind of experiences could that bring into her life, which were made impossible by the dread, boredom and overwhelm of trying to fit a million health-pieces together)
…A health approach which was forgiving and all about enjoying yourself(where the worst mistake is forgiven while it happens; where we are free to enjoy our guilty pleasures*)
*which makes sense as shame has been proven to be the numberone reason we go to comfort food; we feel bad, need comfort, so we go to food that comforts us
This is about health as something:
The Amazing-Life-Amazing-Health System
…Health as something you achieve, not through“eating right” or “working out” (only), but via making sure you have amazing experiences in your life and making sure you feel inspired and grateful as often as possible …Something you reach simply by trying things out, to seewhat works, and then continue to do more of that (constantly aiming to do it all in a fun, inspiring way). If you’d like to read about an opportunity (starting at $1) to try just that approach, click on this link
If you feel crazy, and want to try the $1 trial right away, you can just send $1 to PayPal account [email protected] – along with a mail, to that same address, so I know where to send the first week’s material . There is no catch whatsoever to this; it makes perfect sense for me to offer one week for $1, because all I personally have to do is send you an email (and, as I know just how awesome this method is, I’m pretty sure there’s a good chance you’ll want to continue). However, this opportunity will certainly not be available forever. It all depends on the amount of maintenance it requires (it it requires anything but the bare minimum, will I really offer this at $1? Makes no sense)
If you’d prefer to talk to me personally - about this opportunity, and/or have with questions about the sleep habit solution – then feel free to contact me via:

If your productivity isn’t where you’d like it to
be (and maybe that’s not a lack of getting
things done, but simply a lack of enjoyment or
excitement about life… Or if your business isn’t
where you’d like it to be; whether that’s
moneywise, in how it feels or the impact it’s
making for the people it touches, then you’ll
like the resources below…
Productivity Resources Free resources If your 9-5 holds you back, by any of the following: ...Making you feel like a sheep, ...Having you do things that have nothing to do with what you're called to in life, ...ridiculously underusing your capabilities
Or in any other way that feels like a waste of time, energy and your incredible potential, then this is for you. This is a document where I gave a woman feedback on her to-do:s that day, in a way that:
...Turned a repetitive activity into excitement (perfect for a lot of 9to5:s),
...turned cleaning into a workout
...and gave meaning where you’d never think you’d find it.
If you're not in a 9to5, but still wish to get productive, then you should know that this feedback radically improved the productivity of a multimillionaire (I gave him feedback on his specific tasks, which you can get, too).
