Actually, this powerful medicine exists. It’s real and readily available for everyone. It’s called lifestyle change. Trust me, it works well, amazingly well. So what exactly is a lifestyle change? Lifestyle change is not a diet or a fitness fad that lasts for a while. It is a real change that involves so much more than food and exercise. It emphasises nutrition and exercise, as one would expect, but it also addresses psychological factors like everyday habits, emotions, loneliness, isolation, depression, and anger. Why? Because a lot of our “bad” behaviours such as eating sugary foods, eating comfort foods, food addictions and overeating are actually our attempts to self-medicate emotional pain. Here are the essential steps for making a healthy lifestyle change.
