The Art of Healthy Living – The True Meaning of the Art of Healthy Living
The Art Of Healthy Living is a term that is thrown around very loosely. Most of the time people think it is a “cool” expression or they just need something catchy to put on their site but that’s not what this phrase is about. The Art Of Healthy Living is just that an Art. People never talk about Healthy Living in terms of it being an art form. People see it as something they are obligated to do or something they do to impress people. Some people use Healthy Living as a crutch to prove how self righteous they can be. These are the types that always insist you are unhealthy unless you start eating and living like them. I will do my best to clear up misconceptions about Art and the way of Healthy Living.
What does Art mean to you? You probably had many things pop in your head just there. Before I tell you what art means to me I want you to first empty your cup of tea so that you may taste mine. This an old Zen expression that means to abandon all things you think you know so that you may learn once again. If you were in school and you constantly were trying to outsmart the teacher you would learn absolutely nothing more than you already knew. Your cup would remain full and your drink would go stale.

Making Fitness or Martial Arts Part of Your Life
Pick up a newspaper or turn on the local news on any given day and you are liable to hear a report on how Americans are getting fatter. Government statistics tell us that approximately 60 percent of Americans (127 million people) are overweight. Many women who enroll in martial arts or fitness clubs have a primary goal of losing weight. Unfortunately, some expect instant results. If they don’t see immediate weight loss they become discouraged and inpatient. Some even drop out altogether.
In my 20 plus years of training men, women and children of all shapes and sizes, I have learned that diets just don’t work. If they did, we wouldn’t have an obesity epidemic. The diet industry continually makes promises that they can’t deliver and is fleecing the public at the tune of $40 billion dollars a year. The diet industry doesn’t want to tell you the truth. And why should they with the kind of money they’re taking out of people’s misery? The truth is that weight loss is difficult for many people to achieve. Weight loss is a personal struggle, complicated by an individual’s upbringing, eating habits, metabolism, genetics and psychology. Yo-yo dieting and subjecting the body to strange eating regimes is much more detrimental to one’s physical and mental health than maintaining a steady weight.
