So when I was young I used to listen to ‘old people’ and think that if they just ate better and exercised more then they wouldn’t whine so much about their aches and pains. Hahahahaha!!! Now I AM one of those ‘old people’!!! And guess what???? I DO eat well and I DO exercise and…apparently….the car gets rusty!!!! So we need to take care of our bodies. And not because we want to be accepted by the ‘beautiful people’ who decide what the latest beautiful image is going to be each year. But because our bodies are where we LIVE and because our bodies and our spirits matter. Our brains only act in support of our body and our spirit. So we need to take care of our body as much as we can. Exercise is like oil in the engine. Eating well not only fuels our body but has been proven to help our brains process information and trauma. No matter how much we take care of ourselves, death is the one thing we will all be successful at so let’s take care of ourselves so we can enjoy the ride along the way!
