Good Morning to ALL,

O.k., so here is a good question.

"Do you KNOW what the most COMMON causes of DEATH are"? Well, here are the top 4:
  1. Heart Disease
  2. Stroke
  3. Cancer
  4. Diabetes
Now I will tell you what the top 4 were in the 1900's:
  1. Diphtheria
  2. Influenza
  3. Tuberculous
  4. Pneumonia
There is a BIG problem here. Our technology in medicine has evolved and delivered great success in combating viruses and colds that attack our immune system thus resulting in DEATH. With that, we should be living lovely, but sadly this is not the case. Here in the 21st century we have acquired a new set of causes of death and these are causes resulting from our choosing of lifestyles and genetics. We cannot change our genetic dispositions, we were born with these genes and we will pass with these genes. The smart thing to do, for all of us, is research your family background for any health hazards that pass down through each generation and get regular health screens from your doctor. Now regarding "lifestyles", this is what we do have control over. In terms of health and relating to lifestyles we look at 4 things and these are:
  1. Diet
  2. Physical activity
  3. Stress
  4. Environmental exposure
Having this information gives all of us a CHOICE in how we want to live (things we do, where we live), an idea of how long we would like to live (that too isn't totally in our control, but the actions and decisions we make are), and how WELL we live. Making better choices in the type of diet I consume, choosing to be more active, learning how to deal with stress, and doing what I can to protect myself from free radicals in the air and polluted water (antioxidants and water purifiers). If this is what it takes to prevent an experience with a heart attack, stroke, cancer or diabetes then by all means you can count me in. If you are still on the fence about all this and have that attitude of, "if it's my time to go, then it's just my time", then I suggest you take the time to ask someone who has survived cancer, heart failure, obesity or stroke and I guarantee you they will recommend you doing everything you can to bypass those near death experiences.

Nevertheless, sometimes we (humans) will have all the pertinent information, everything we need to know for living long healthy lovely lives and unfortunately we (humans) store all of the important lifesaving information in the dusty files in the back of the cabinet because we don't believe those type of things will happen to us. Well, neither did all the folks who are no longer here with us. I am sure their family members would confirm my point.

If we just shift our perception from a NEGATIVE take on life and start managing our thoughts with POSITIVITY and the BELIEF that we are blessed with good health then we will be more enthusiastic about CARING for ourselves and others.
Start by reviewing your daily HABITS and see if you can improve any areas of your lifestyle so that you may become a HEALTHYLIVING4HAPPYLIFE person.

Sometimes we may not know where to start, but if you begin to fill your heart and mind with the DESIRE to LIVE WELL then the answers will surface and appear through the laws of attraction. Meaning you attract what your thoughts are. So remember to remain positive, eat well, get your 15-30 mins. of activity in a day and take your vitamins and supplements to give your body an extra fighting chance to survive. HealthyLiving4HappyLife to everyone today.
