For many years, my ulterior motivator for exercise and health was to combat my inner demons.

We all have them, and sometimes, justifying our efforts for weight loss and a healthy lifestyle can cover up the turmoil we feel inside.

Although I am a happy and positive person, I have my moments.

Don’t we all?

Sometimes, we don’t acknowledge that we are hurting. Maybe we hurt our own selves by not living in alignment with our values.

Sometimes that hurt is directed to our self by the following:

  • Accepting things in our lives that we’re not happy about
  • Motivated by the fear of doing or not doing something
  • Guilt leads our actions
  • Allowing others to take advantage of our time

Mental health is one of the most important gifts you can nurture.
