6 powerful lessons from Japan that helped me heal my health
Health which no longer feels like treading water, simply leaning back and floating
I was not born into this world with an intuitive understanding of how to take care of my body and mind. I know some people are– I found myself wondering for years, how do they just live and everything falls into place?– but I was not one of them. I had to learn.
For many years I overate, underate, stressed about food, did every kind of exercise and diet that was supposedly life-changing, stressed about my body, and couldn’t find peace with it. For a time, I believed that stressing about my health would be something I had to deal with forever, that I couldn’t escape it.
But I’m glad I didn’t stop searching for answers. Through courage, love, understanding, and luck, I find myself today in a very different world– my health no longer feels like treading water hoping to stay above water, but a life where I can simply lean back and float.
