Lifestyle
Our inactivity is hereditary. We are giving it to our kids. We played stickball - they play video games. We rode our bikes, navigating through the neighborhood - they navigate through web sites and chat rooms. We went to the ball park and rooted for our heroes - and now that we pay them the big money, we can't afford tickets anymore -so our kids go to the movies and fill up on popcorn, with butter (is that really butter?). The next generation of couch-potatoes is in their formative years, and they're learning very well from us.
We've got an entire channel dedicated to food, the whole food, and nothing but the food! We watch, and lust for, the decadence of the chocolate cakes, the luxurious rich sauces, the gourmet dishes and more. Why not? We're certainly living larger than our ancestors, in more ways than one. We've got more choices of restaurants than we can ever visit, and we can have just about any kind of food delivered right to our front doors. We don't even have to call by phone anymore. Push a few buttons on the right web site and have a seven-course meal delivered to your home, with the right choice of wine, of course. Or we can go to the nearby all-you-can-eat smorgasbord, or the brunch buffet. We have wonderful choices, but do we really want to add hazelnut syrup to our hot caffeine or "supersize" that burger for the extra soda and fries?
Take a close look at this lifestyle I've described and tell me if you are ready to click into Gee-I-Need-A-Break-From-All-This.com. If you are, then it's time to get up and literally walk away from a sedentary lifestyle and toward wellness.
