With all that’s taken place over the last two years, it’s
never been more important to have a handle on health and health related matters.
With the rising rates of cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity, drug
and alcohol dependency, anxiety and depression, excluding the dreaded corona for
the purpose of this conversation we abstain from getting a grip on our health to
our detriment.
There will be those who in their quest to improve their quality
of life, realise their dreams, will sacrificing their health to gain the wealth
they so desire. To then have to spend that same wealth in an attempt to regain
their health.
What happens when your physical body shows no visible signs of wear
and tear, yet you become unsettled with your sense of health and wellbeing?
What you once took for granted like getting a full night’s sleep, waking up in
the morning full of energy, doing a full day’s work with fuel enough in the
tank for a workout or drinks with your mates becomes a distant memory for all the
wrong reasons.
It’s at this point, we all need to take stock and ask the question
“When Was My Last MOT?” In a day and
an age when it’s all too easy to put our overall health and wellbeing on the
back burner for the sake of our jobs, careers, business and families, I truly believe
we need to take stock of what a balanced and fruitful life looks and feels
like.
- When you wake in the morning, spend some time designing the day you would like to experience.
- Drink a glass of room temperature water, your body will thank you for it.
- Based on your personal beliefs make time for prayer, meditation and or mindfulness.
- Introduce some form of physical activity into your life, exercise, walk or run do something.
- Your body is a temple, it’s where you live. Treat it like you would treat a treasured possession. Eat things that are good for you.
- Invest in yourself. In the words of Ray Kroc, “When you’re green you're growing, when you’re ripe you rot.”
- Adopt an attitude of gratitude in all things, take nothing for granted.
- “Be the change you want to see.” Gandhi.
- Walk in love, be love.
- Give freely of your time, money, gifts, talents, abilities.
