Did the Ten Strategy ideas help you to address any of the barriers?
If some barriers still feel hard to overcome is there a way for you to arrange for support? (Friends? Online support? Talk therapy?) If a barrier is ridiculously hard to overcome, is there a way to either accept it, or focus on other Healthy Campaign possibilities?
In the talk (and the animation that graces the HealthyCampaign.org website), we mentioned three particularly oft-mentioned barriers:
- I don’t have time to cook.
- It’s expensive to eat real food.
- I don’t have space.
Our strategies include rapid, affordable, and small-space cooking methods.
If you are completely reliant on other people for your food supply, can you exercise advocacy and communication skills to change what’s in the pipeline?
Are tastebuds a barrier? (If that, we promise we can find healthy food that also tastes delicious.) Is mindset a barrier for you?
