The Results Divide: A Woman’s Pain

Posted on December 4, 2020 by - Health Blog

The Pain

Are you in deep physical, mental, emotional, or psychological pain? Guess what, you’re not alone. This applies to all Women, including you, and is a big reason why…
 
  •  40% of women over the age of 20 are considered obese.
  • Almost 35% of women over the age of 20 have hypertension.
  • 1 in 3 women die of heart disease  and stroke.
  • Osteoporosis affects over 50 million people, 70% of them are women due to poor nutrition.
  • Twice as many women suffer from depression than Men.
  • 1.3 million women die every year due to heart disease, cancer, and respiratory disease and a third of it could be prevented
  • Nearly half of all women surveyed said they would like cosmetic surgery because they don’t love what they see in the mirror.
  • 1 in 4 women have self-harmed and have considered taking their own life

 

Intentions & Results

On a global scale there’s an inconsistent alignment between what Women want and the results that they actually produce.

Personal Intention: “I want feel confident  in my own skin and get the spark  back in my relationship.” –> Evidential Result: Still driving through buying fast food  and the sugar coffee at Starbucks

Personal Intention: “I’m going to stick to my plan this time”–> Evidential Result: In the fridge grabbing the gallon of ice cream 72 hours post commitment

Personal Intention: “This year I’m building this booty!  This is the year!” –> Evidential Result: Makes the same excuses that have been made for years.

All talk , no walk .
