Hello Foxes :) Ive been away again! But Im not slacking off I promise! I wanted to touch base with you and tell you about some changes that will be coming up. While I do love fitness and believe it is an essential part of a holistically healthy life, I find myself becoming more and more passionate about food. We all know we should get moving, and when it comes down to it all movement is good movement (unless youre injuring yourself via overuse or attempting something above your current level of fitness). We also all know that we should eat healthy foods. However, the problem with food is that its a lot more complex, and its a lot more confusing. We hear many things from the government, magazines, television, and maybe even our doctors and nutritionists that seem conflicting. Thats because it is, and a lot of the dogma that we are exposed to on a daily basis is NOT based in proper science. Coming from a psychological background, I had the opportunity to study statistics and I know how easily data can be manipulated. The problem is, the general public doesnt have the ability to critically evaluate the many statistics thrown out there just for shock value. I believe it is one of the biggest crimes ever committed by the mainstream (especially the governments) for making us all believe health information that is actually whats making us all so sick. And Im not talking about acute illness, Im talking about the drawn out chronic crap that so many of us are suffering from. This might sound extreme, but once I started turning over the different stones, all the evidence began pointing to an unbelievable amount of deception thats literally right under our noses. The Standard American Diet, Vegan/Vegetarian Diets, Raw-Food Diets, Juicing Diets etc. are all based on info that doesnt work in the long term for our bodies. This is not an advertisement or a pitch for some program Im going to be offering, either. This is a true, from my heart post that Im using to tell you about the next chapter in Fit Fox Coaching. Starting in September I am beginning to study to become a Nutritional Therapy Consultant and eventually a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. I truly believe from the bottom of my heart we can all heal ourselves with the right balance of foods. We were given these bodies (by whoever may have created us) as a gift, and they are the most intelligent organisms in existence, to our knowledge. The problem is, that none of us trust or respect them enough to do what they do best. We downplay thousands of years of practice and knowledge because we have science now. And we discount the remedies and food preparation methods of hundreds of previous generations because we think we know better. But if you look around you can see very clearly that were making fools of ourselves. We act baffled and we act clueless when the answer is really quite simple. A balanced diet of whole foods that our bodies have been thriving on since the beginning of our evolution is the obvious answer to our problems. So, if you are as excited as I am about the possibility of reversing the chronic plague that has set upon us, then please continue following Fit Fox Coaching as the content will continue to be from my heart. I cannot be insincere and I thank you for following me this far !!!
