“You Can’t Fool Mother Nature”! This adage is as true now as when it was first spoken. The authentic you knows this and flourishes where this is recognized and allowed to grow. One source of happiness is the wise use of nourishment and exercise and your body can guide you if you let it. Your body enjoys healthy exercise, diet and loves genuineness. Listening and feeling yourself reacting to this in your daily life makes you and those around you feel better. Skip exercise, sit around watching TV for hours drinking diet no calorie artificially sweetened drinks and eating over-processed unhealthy foods, watching ads designed to entice you to buy whatever regardless of the real value to your body, and watch the obesity rate climb. It already has risen at an alarming level. The real you needs to know your strengths that lead you to increased virtue and happiness. Your ear needs to listen to the strengths of others. Your body needs to enjoy brisk exercise and healthy foods. You can benefit from friendships that encourage you, that stay with you and deepen over time, and from cherished commitments to people and meanings in life. Simple daily changes like drinking water instead of artificially sweetened drinks, eating an apple instead of artificially sweetened ice cream, cookies and pie, adding brisk exercise, finding more ways to use your Signature Strengths, doing a good deed and expressing love and gratitude for your blessings - these show responsible care for yourself and others and can help you rest and sleep well. Exercising your right to genuine happiness does good for all the universe. If you want to know more about these topics, hire a Mentor Coach LLC trained Coach. I also recommend the following books: “Authentic Happiness” by Dr. Martin E.P. Seligman, The Free Press, N.Y., N.Y. 2002. “Sweet Deception” by Dr. Joseph Mercola, Nelson Books,Inc., Nashville, Tenn. 2006. Copyright @Rita M. Thompson, 2007
