Two major elections were held last week. Maybe there were more. If so, please add them in if you wish.
The first was of course the American election for President. This was arguably the most watched, supported, interesting election since the days of John F. Kennedy. The acceptance speech by Barack Obama was certainly “Kennedyesque”. Even McCain’s speech accepting defeat was very noble.
In New Zealand we elected a new Prime Minister and new government. After nine years the previous government and Prime Minister were soundly defeated.
So how can Elections impact our weight and general health? What do they do to jobs and security? Initially there is a feeling of euphoria at the prospect of positive change. This is a good healthy thing. We must vibrate at a high level in order to attract and maintain good health & weight. Feeling good and secure will generate other good feelings and good results in our lives. When we are feeling healthy and on top of the world we will attract other great events and actions into our lives.
Present in New Zealand and I believe in the U.S. is a feeling that life can turn for the better. When we as individuals believe that good times are coming then collectively we create that reality. Good times open the wallets of people and even better times follow.
There is always a price. Be sure and watch the consumption of food and alcahol as these things tend to rise in consumption levels when we are are very happy or very sad. Be strong through these times of great change and protect your good health. That way you can sure of a long healthy life.
I suggest that these elections at this time in our lives are perhaps the most significant events we will witness for some time. they have and will affect how you feel about yourself……….right there is the greatest weight watcher ever.
Yours in health,
David
