Communities and Helpful Internal Narratives

As humans we are social creatures.

We have these internal narratives that we want to fit in and we usually want to increase our “status” among our peers.

Because these two narratives are so powerful for so many of us, and because we know this conditioning isn’t fixed, it makes our choice of environment and community super critical.

One of the joys of 2018 is that in most areas, we can actively seek out these different communities to help us along our journey.

Maybe it’s the new movement gym down the road or maybe it’s an online community to discuss healthy eating.

Either way, active engagement in a group of like-minded individuals naturally helps our progression in that area, as we seek to fit in, uphold the values of the group, contribute and increase status.
