I work in the ‘health industry’ so I am often thinking about health, talking about health, your health, my health, everyone’s health.
So… What is health? What affects our health?
I could say a typical list of diet, exercise, hydration, sleep, and happiness. But to me it’s something more like this:
- how we move and how we don’t
- what we eat and drink
- w h e n we eat and drink
- sunlight and darkness
- rest and sleep
- what we listen to
- the words we say
- the thoughts we have
- the subconscious thoughts we don’t even know we have
- temperatures and seasons
- electrical charges and electromagnetic frequencies
- the things our skin is (and isn’t) exposed to
- the clothes we wear
- the shoes we walk in
- how we breathe
- what we breathe
- the things we give our attention to
- the n u m b e r of things we give our attention to
- the way we treat and spend time with other people
We are so greatly connected to and affected by everything around us. Therefore, we can’t talk about our o w n health without talking about the health of yes, everything around us. That means our soils, our water, our air, our food, plants, animals and other humans. In other words the whole planet.
So what affects our health? E V E R Y T H I N G
If you want to be healthy, create a healthy environment.
It’s never just diet and exercise… but it’s a good place to start.
