When we talk about the Habits of Health, we end up talking about cavemen a lot. So much of our modern day health challenges are tied to our biological programming, from how we move to the foods we crave to how we process stress.

Your Network

Traditionally, your support network is comprised of individuals, and that’s a great place to start. We are also going to look beyond people and into the world you live in to ensure that even your physical surroundings work for you and not against you. Let’s start with your physical surroundings, because you may find it easier and faster to make small changes in this area.

For starters, get rid of all the junk food in your house. No last bites. No big goodbye binge. Bag it up and throw it away or give it to a food bank. You will find it much easier to eat healthy food if healthy food is the only choice available to you.

Next, start using nine-inch plates and commit to eating under bright lights at your dinner table. Eating while watching television or eating at the kitchen counter leads to overeating, because we aren't as aware of the choice we’re making with each forkful of food. These latter choices may not permanently alter your environment, but they involve you actively choosing what environment you eat in.

With your physical environment in order, begin to address your social environment. If you have a health coach, talk to him or her about creating your support network. Your health coach will be able to offer you guidance and connect you with other people in your area with similar goals, and it should go without saying that your health coach is one of the first pillars in your network!

With your existing circle of friends, gently inquire to see if someone close to you is already passionate about their health or is looking to make a change. Using a buddy system can be helpful and rewarding. If no one joins you, don’t be disheartened. Let them know what your goals are and ask for them to be supportive.
