I’m going to use a financial metaphor for health today, and it is this…
Imagine you have savings account for your health. Every time you do something positive, like a workout, making better food choices, skipping the drink you don’t really want, working on your stress triggers…
You are making a deposit.
Every time you succumb to the extra helping, the chips, the big night out, letting your monkey mind take over with negative thoughts…
You’re withdrawing.
There’s no problem with withdrawing, as long as you’re keeping a healthy savings balance.
The problems start when you go into the red and stay there.
So how is your health savings balance looking?
Are you depositing more than you’re withdrawing?
Or are you in the red?
