Suffering Has a Cause

Person moving through discomfort on their path to growth

“Suffering has a cause.” Over 2,600 years ago, the historical Buddha shared these words and their wisdom is still relevant for your health and mindset today. The discomfort, aches, or setbacks you experience aren’t just obstacles; they can become the very vehicle for living a better life.

“𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑊𝑎𝑦 𝐼𝑠 𝑇ℎ𝑟𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ!” Instead of avoiding what’s difficult, move toward it. Growth isn’t found in comfort or distraction, but in confronting what challenges you. The truth? It’s not easy, and it’s definitely messy. But when you keep going and make small improvements, the rewards are worth the effort.

Avoidance may seem easier, but it quietly halts your growth and pushes you backward. That stuck, anxious feeling is real—it’s your cue that something is left unresolved. Choosing intentional discomfort over avoidance is a superpower.

This principle shows up everywhere in health and fitness. It’s tempting to chase miracle pills, fad routines, or anything that gives short-term satisfaction. But those approaches satisfy ego, not your real progress. When real challenges arise, you’ll find yourself unprepared mentally—a “flinch” response—falling back into habits that don’t serve your future.

Holistic health is more than entertainment or “just getting out and moving.” It’s a philosophy an aspiration to become your best self and bring benefit to everyone around you. A growth mindset and thoughtful discomfort are the keys to transformation and sustainability.

Reflect: How does this sit for you? Are you ready to move through what’s hard and come out stronger?
