4 Hurdles You Must Jump

Most of us understand that no one is perfect, we all have our problems and we are constantly working to better ourselves. However, there are 4 things I highly recommend you stop if you are pursing a healthy lifestyle.





1. Watching too much TV
TV is a wonderful thing, in moderation. I love watching The Voice or Bachelor during the week (I admit it!) Unfortunately, the majority of us spend way too much time in front of the television. According to Nielson statistics & The BLS American Time Survey, the average American spends 34 hours per week watching TV. That’s 1,768 hours per year.

Meaning every 5 years we watch 365 DAYS OF TV.
Need I say more?

2. Constantly requiring motivation from others.  Salus truly enjoys motivating and inspiring our followers. We spend countless hours of our time working to inspire & motivate you to live a healthier life. But there comes a point when you have to find it in yourself to stay committed. The magic really happens when someone acquires enough skill and knowledge to motivate his or her self.

3. Eating fast food.  Fast Food is awful for you. Plain and simple. I know that we get busy and it feels like our only option (I’ve even written an article on How To Eat Fast Food when you really feel like you don't have a choice). But truly, it’s crap. The process is horrific. Where there is a fast food restaurant there is a grocery/convenient store with protein bars, fruits, vegetables and water.

4. Judging/talking about people
I’m guilty of this, you’re guilty of this- we all are. On bad days our minds can fill with negative thoughts about others. We will sometimes go down the extremely low road and gossip to other people about it! (Yuck) If you want happiness, practice compassion and understanding instead.

I know you’re busy and that is why this blog will hopefully help. You aren’t adding anything to your busy life. If anything, you are taking away. Woo-hoo!
