This perennial reminder comes to me in the mirror today, in honor of the Summer Solstice...
--
To optimize human experience:
* maintain homeostasis * drink clean water * eat just enough nutritious food * get deep sleep, but not too much * discipline yourself with adequate exercise * practice some kind of grounding & centering ritual * explore nature with reverence & a sense of humor * nurture relationships to foster a healthy community * maintain reciprocal boundaries with fierce kindness ...keep up The Great Work & enjoy The Cosmic Play!
Probably preaching to the choir, here 😃 But I was inspired by this cartoon to write down my free Rx for people who are fully invested in improving their own health: * meditate an hour a day (if you prefer, break it up into multiple 15 or 20 minute sessions, to begin with) * each day, do at least 40 min ea of aerobic & anaerobic exercise (they will both help raise your metabolism) * eat a diet high in fresh organic vegetables & fruits ......(without any processed "foods") * spend more time outside (nature is a great teacher) * focus on what you CAN do to improve your life & your world ("be the change you wish to see") * be extremely careful of what audio/video programming you allow yourself to be exposed to (there is no such thing as "must see tv," although there are some enriching sources of valuable information in certain recorded sources) * balance every statement of criticism/resentment with at least as many comments of praise/gratitude (apparently, there is a magic balance... resolving actual problems with constructive criticism, while at the same time maintaining praise as a reward) If you aren't feeling better after two weeks of this daily Rx, contact me & I'll give you a free personalized analysis of what may help... But I will leave you with this hint, in the meanwhile: “I have so much to accomplish today that I must meditate for two hours instead of one.” - Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
