How Food Choices Affect Performance: Part 1

You mean my food choices affect my energy level

and performance?

 

Yah, a lot.

 

Let’s say you want to feel more energized so you

can get more done.

Ask yourself: “Am I eating food with lots of life

force energy?

Life force energy is the qi (or “chi”) that gives

life to (and animates the life within) every plant

and animal in our world, including you!

 

Whole foods, straight from nature, have the

greatest amount of life force energy.

 

Foods that come from a box or bag, that have been

processed, have much less life force energy – and

in some cases have none worth speaking of.

 

Think of it like a really, really long game of

telephone.  Remember that game from childhood,

when kids whispered words into each other’s ears,

beginning at one end of a line and waiting to see

what silly words came out at the end of the chain?

 

 

The original full nutritional potential or

meaning of the food gets a bit more diluted for

every step it takes along the

growing-picking-distribution-processing chain —

or in the case of whole foods like carrots or kale

— for every single minute, hour, and day the food

is away from its roots or its roots are out of the

soil.

 

Using the analogy of the telephone game again, if

the food started out as carrots in the ground with

green tops sprouting above ground – by the time it

ends up as canned carrots, it might have some of

the original color and flavor of the carrots, but

not much life force energy and greatly reduced

nutritional value.

 

Your ability to perform on the job or at home or

in the community is directly affected by the

amount of life force energy in the food you eat.

Your food choices affect your performance. You

need that life force energy to fuel your own life.

 

Ask yourself: “do I want to perform like a carrot

with its greens on top or a partially cooked

carrot saturated with liquid in a can?” I know,

it’s silly to think of it that way. But, just

imagine how different your energy level and

performance might be if you made different food

choices!

 

You might normally choose so-called fast foods or

convenience foods and drinks because you really

want to quell your hunger and fuel your brain as

quickly as possible, thinking that these foods

will give you the energy to do what you need to

do. But, unintentionally, your food choices end up

working against you.

 

The next time you’re looking to boost your energy

so you can perform better, will you reach for

another coffee or caffeinated soda or energy drink

or candy bar? Or, instead…. how about next time

you reach for beautiful, fresh, whole foods that

are actually bursting with life! Life that you can

use to be your best and perform at your optimum

level!

Imagine if each of your thoughts and feelings was a radio broadcast…

Imagine if each of your thoughts and feelings was
a radio broadcast…

…being sent out into the world…

what would you want that broadcast to say?

This is incredibly important to consider,
because…

…if you practice awareness of two of the
principles I share with my clients,
then you know…

 

well, first…

 

What exactly are these two principles?

One, everything is energy

and…

Two, wherever you direct your attention, energy
follows.

In other words, like attracts like.

 

So, what exactly does that mean?

Your radio broadcasts are inviting more of the
tone, content, and focus of each of your thoughts
and feelings into your life.

 

So, pause a moment and ask yourself: am I
broadcasting what I want more of?

Or, instead, like most people, are you doing the
opposite?

 

Let’s say you really want to lose weight,
and you are regularly thinking with disgust “ugh,
why am I so fat? why am I always struggling to get
out of this ugly body?”

That means you’re inviting more of “fat and
struggle and ugly” into your life.

That’s certainly not what you want…

but those are the energy frequencies your inner
radio station is broadcasting to the world.

 

What if, instead, your thoughts focused on what
is beautiful and wonderful about you right now, or

…what you will think when your body is at a more
ideal weight and you are feeling better about
yourself.

That would send a broadcast to the world saying
“hey, I want more self-love and acceptance and an
ideal weight in my life”

…or, focusing more on the impact of that lighter,
fitter you, you broadcast to the world “how
amazing is it that I feel such incredible energy
and strength? how wonderful is that I feel great
in my body and everyone around me notices that I’m
positively glowing with joy?”

 

How incredibly different is that?

 

Or, let’s say you find yourself getting caught in
a tail spin of anxiety and worry about cash flow,
with concern for how you’ll pay your bills and
boost your income,
to support the growing and changing needs of your
business or home life.

These are truly legitimate feelings and concerns,
of course.

But you certainly don’t want to be inviting more
“anxiety” and “worry” about a “lack of money” into
your life.

 

What if, instead, you allowed yourself to get
excited about the opposite of what you’re feeling
that’s to say.

What if you focused your awareness, your
thoughts, your feelings on “how cool is it that
everything I need and want shows up at the perfect
moment”
or “why is it so incredibly easy to grow my
business?”
or “how amazing is it that perfect clients are
knocking down my door?”
and allowed that buzz of excitement of this new
way of thinking or feeling to permeate your whole
being.

That new vibration will then literally shaking loose
the old stuff,
those previous thoughts and feelings that you now
know you do not want to broadcast to the world
because you don’t want more of that in your life.

 

Instead now you’ll be sending out a radio
broadcast to the world saying “woo hoo, life is
awesome and I have everything I need now!”

 

Much more energizing and empowering!

 

So, no matter what it is that you’d like to
invite into your life…

  • more intimacy with your partner
  • a fitter, stronger, more slender physique
  • more clients and customers to support your 2012 business goals
  • greater financial abundance to take that trip you’ve been dreaming of
  • or, perhaps the support of a coach like me who can share more Eastern-inspired strategies to guide you in further clarifying what you want for your life and business in 2012 and show you how you can take simple, sustainable, inspired steps to make that a reality…

 

Focus your radio broadcasts on what you want more
of.
Turn your inner dial to the frequency of
thoughts and emotions
to support what serves you best.
Now.
In this moment.

 

You don’t need to wait.
You don’t have to wait.

Embrace your potential now.
For you, for those you love, for your business.

Live life to its fullest.

And perform at your optimum level!

Why not?
You deserve it!
