Health Topics

The story of health in America is essentially similar to the story of someone who buys a brand new car and rarely changes the oil or air filter, never rotates the tires, never buys new tires, etc.

Eventually with that car, (and figuratively with the person) the engine throws a rod or seizes, or the tires blow out, or the car just doesn’t have any get-up-and-go.

The truth is that freedom (of any sort) isn’t free. So, if we want to freely enjoy good health, we have to have the discipline and vigilence of taking care of our body correctly (daily).

That is the plain truth. Failure to take care of one’s body results in future bondage called poor health. As anyone experiencing poor health knows - poor health takes away one’s freedom to fully participate in life and to fully enjoy the precious relationships that make life sweet.

Therefore, we must constantly:

1. Evaluate the direction in which our health is going in order to not experience the bondage that is part of low-quality health.
2. Remember that the most powerful word in the English language is HABIT. Habits bind us or they enable and free us.
3. Healthy habits are the eternal vigilance that gives us freedom from poor health. We teach five important habits for health.

Before discussing the healthy habits, we wish to first expound against the Four BAD habits listed below that will lead you to poor health. Do not let them be part of your operational mode:

1. Not thinking about your health — and not believing that the person in the coffin, hospital bed or wheelchair may likely be me unless I act wiser than others are acting.
2. Trusting others too much — especially those who gain from your poor health and and early death, i.e. big business and big government. You need to understand the truths regarding health and be in charge of your own health.
3. Not understanding what are one’s particular health risks and not strategizing so as to minimize those risks.
4. Failing to plan your daily routines so as to establish the Five Habits of Health. The old saying is true: If one fails to plan, the result becomes the same as if one had planned to fail.
