Sugar Addiction

 

        Sugar Addiction

Yes, yes, we all know by now that we must cut down on sugar because you are already sweet enough… Some live by the motto that you only live once, so indulge in every occasion. Others say when it’s your time to go then it’s your time to go. But there is a difference in living a life where you have energy or when life is literally a drag, doesn’t matter how much time you have.

I do not know about you, but I don’t like to feel unwell, weary, exhausted and on medication. Take responsibility and ownership of your health today and move a few steps closer to abundant energy, clear thinking and stable hormones.

In my previous blog I spoke about sugar, sugar addiction and the negative impact that it has on your physical and emotional state. We need to take action and make changes where we can, without living in further denial and postponing divine health. Be kind to your immune system today.

Are you addicted to sugar? Do some introspection over the next week or so and take notice of where you are consuming sugar, how much of it you are getting in, how it makes you feel and why you are using it. Is it the sweet taste, the temporary sugar high, or are you trying to numb emotional pain and heartache or just plain old boredom? It will help you to keep a food journal for a week or two and writing down when you are having sugar and why. The sugar really does add up.

Are you feeling sad, lonely, angry, frustrated or guilty? It is time to control these emotions and sort them out. Forgiveness is one of the biggest keys to optimal health. Firstly, we need to forgive ourselves for mistakes we’ve made, doesn’t matter how big or small. Then we need to start walking through the process of forgiving others. You will be turning the key that leads to a door of freedom. Where do you think your addiction came in?

Where did your addiction begin? If you start dealing with the emotions then you won’t have to constantly fight the battle inside of you that is the driving force in the first place. We need to take authority over our health and empower yourself by walking through the process. Once you start dealing with this, excess weight will start dropping, cravings will subside and energy levels will increase.

Your body does need refined sugar to make energy, but the correct sugar. Delicious fruit, sweet dates, coconut, whole grains such as oats, brown rice, millet, buckwheat, corn. Start incorporating these ingredients into your lifestyle. The correct carbohydrates will be changed to energy. Then slowly remove all the breads, cakes, biscuits, sugary cereals, refined pastas, chocolates and sweets. Enjoy a good piece of bread now and again, and have some dark chocolate when the craving is overwhelming. (See recipe below.)

Look sugar addiction in the eye and say, no more, your time is up.
