The Daniel Plan Review

 




The Daniel Plan, written by Rick Warren and two doctors, was a pleasant surprise for me. I half expected to gripe and eye roll my way through it. A big part of me expected it to be the predictable health book.

The book not only focuses on the importance of exercising and healthy eating, but it also acknowledges the spiritual and physiological battle that comes with a healthy lifestyle. The approach is so, so very wholistic. Rick says, "Have you held on to some self-destructive ideas about food, your body, about sex, or about work that have harmed your health?...To get healthy, you'll need to repent of unhealthy choices."

He goes on to talk about how joining a health-minded community is crucial. I love this quote from the book - "Some of your habits and patterns and behaviors are so deeply ingrained that you will never be able to uproot and replace them on your own." For lasting change, you need community to cheer you on and push you for accountability.

But don't get me wrong, The Daniel Plan, does place a strong emphasis on good food choices and exercise. Talking about food, he says, "Our philosophy is that if it was grown on a plant, eat it. If it was made in a plant, leave it on the shelf." Easier said than done? Yes. But it's a great goal to work towards!

Overall, I was encouraged and inspired after finishing this book. If you're considering jumping on the healthy bandwagon, give this book a read.
