I Quit Health: Maybe You Should Too?

I lost my health while doing everything right, which left me to quit health altogether. It sounds extreme, but it's exactly what helped me find the intended design of health.

Apr 04, 2024

I really believe that health is simple.

Maybe it's not easy, but it's certainly not as complicated as we've made it.

Yet a recent survey caught my attention, leaving me questioning everything.

Just over 60% of Americans have at least one chronic disease.

Proving it's really easy to be sick in America and harder not to be. And if, at baseline, you do nothing and never intervene, you will, in some capacity, end up sick.

If, at baseline, you do nothing and never intervene, you will, in some capacity, end up sick.

The natural pull in life is away from health, not towards it.

In a practical sense, the pull is generally to sleep in and skip the workout, to get so busy during the day that you forget to eat, or even to have the pizza, even though you're trying to eat healthier, claiming you'll start again on Monday.

Don't get me wrong; I don't think life needs to be void of pizza, cookies, or bad days. That is part of life. But the real issue is that we have to try.

Health requires you to work at it.

You must work to make it part of your life because it will never miraculously just happen.

Yet, it doesn't need to be complicated.

It doesn't (nor should it) have to consume your life, and it's time to make that distinction. The goal is to live with health, not for health.

Health is not the goal of life. It's intended to be the tool to live your life.

But that means understanding health. Not relative to how much weight you can lose, but health for how it can help you live out the best version of yourself here on earth.

If done right, weight loss is just a good by-product of that.

Living health requires a shift in the paradigm because the way we're attempting clearly isn't working.

I only know this because I had to learn the hard way.

I lost my health while doing everything right.

I had spent my entire life managing the external while diminishing what was happening internally.

Better said, I had spent my entire life ignoring my body, which is ironic because I had given up so much to change it. It felt like I had invested everything in me to get well, which is why the fall I encountered was so devastating.

But I want to be clear: This isn't health.

It's the deception of health that so many of us fall into, and it's easy to do so because the health industry isn't wrong in what they're telling you to do.

Most health ideas work in a lab under isolated and specific systems. But it becomes more complicated when you attempt to apply that to a human experience.

Things fall apart not because the information is wrong but because we neglect the individuality of how our bodies react.

We neglect the influence of:

Your lifestyle patterns and deficiencies
Your trauma and even generational trauma **
Your stress level
Your relationships and connections
Your culture or how far away you're living from your original culture
Your soul
Your thought patterns

I could expand the list but also sum it up in one statement.

Health research can't account for your humanness.

Yet it's also that humanness that is vital to your health and the very thing you must stop ignoring to live well.

It's also what makes health so simple. But it requires that you pay attention to your body.

Inside Health Made Simple, I shift the norm of health, showing you how to live it rather than chase it.

You're not that far away from living well.

Even if you're one of the 60% existing with chronic disease, you can change that. Your body wants to be well. You just have to learn how to nourish it to live there.

That starts by understanding your body, what it needs, and how to support it to live well.

I promise it's not that difficult, but it does take work.

All I can say is it's worth it!
