The Wellness Revelation 21-Day Journey

21天中的第1天

WELCOME!

As a seasoned fitness professional, I’ve seen the same two clients over and over again. Initially, it was difficult to tell them apart.

The first one enthusiastically embraced all cardio sweating, muscle training, and the recommended “do and do not” food lists. Eventually, that enthusiasm turned into an obsession, and she became less delighted and more driven as she sought to push her BMI just a little lower and the number of dumbbell curls just a little higher.

The second client also dove right into the workouts. She, too, was delighted to see her body responding to her efforts. But then something happened. Maybe her toddler came down with a nasty bug, or her work schedule changed. Then, one day, I realized I hadn’t seen her in a couple of weeks.

I was so happy when I spotted her at the grocery store – but I stopped myself from saying hello after she turned red and ducked into the bread aisle when we made eye contact. The smell of shame filled the air.

The names and personal details of these two clients may change, but their stories aren’t all that different. Both desire to improve their lives by taking better care of themselves, but they look solely to their bodies to give them the sustaining confidence or comfort they crave.

Can you relate?

If so, welcome to The Wellness Revelation YouVersion Plan. It is awesome that you desire to improve your quality of life through better health and well-being.

This plan is designed to put you on that path while helping you avoid the dead-end that comes from missing this truth: Your Creator loves and values you as you are.

As you seek to improve your physical fitness, He wants to free you from whatever is weighing you down. I’m not necessarily talking about pounds. I am talking about the “weight” that keeps you turning toward food (and neglecting your body) or turning away from food (and obsessing over your body).

I am talking about the “weight” that comes from trying to keep life under your control.

Are you stressed out and burned out?

Then you’ve started this plan at the right time.

Over the next few days, I’ll introduce you to eight topics that are often neglected but essential for true and lasting weight loss. To the chagrin of the fitness industry’s deep pockets, the best kind of weight loss doesn’t start with purchasing a product or buying into a program.

The Wellness Revelation will introduce you to a health journey that begins in alignment with God and seeks whole-person transformation, not just behavior change. Let these 21 days with us work to reset your mind about weight loss and health. Be refreshed as you invite Jesus to be your personal trainer, training not only your body, but your heart and mind also.

Let’s get started.

Reflect:

Do I identify more with the obsessive client or the neglectful client? What is the real “weight” that I have to lose?
