4 pillars to health

We change all the time. We grow fluid and flexible and we become more rigid. It's happening even now as you read this.

I was at what can only be called a performance art piece on fascia a few weeks ago by Gil Hedley. 

He reminded us that there are four primary things that influence the fine "fuzz"; that is the tissue between the tissues of our bodies. And this effects our whole being: mental, emotional, physical, spiritual.
When we suffer from these lacks, our resilience is diminished:

1. Dehydration
2. Stillness
3. Being ungrounded
4. Sadness, anger, worry, etc.

​BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE... AND IT'S GOOD NEWS!​

​We can nourish ourselves and fill our reservoir with these:

1. Hydration
2. Movement

These first two go together. If you're sitting at your computer or book sipping from your gallon of water, even if you get up every 20 minutes for a little break, the water you take in will barely reach any of your cells and tissues. It won't be able to do the job of cleaning out the gunk and delivering the goods.
So when you get up, move! Put on some music and dance like no one's watching. Get on the floor and roll around. Kick up your heels, even one at a time.
      3.  Grounding
We are an electromagnetic system. We need to ground all the positive ions we produce back into the earth. 
Just like it's safe to be in your car in a lightning strike, because the current won't travel through your rubber tires, it's the same with the shoes we wear--no place for those +ions to go. 
Take off your shoes. Let your bare feet touch the ground or the floor....It's ok to wear socks, by the way....
      4.  Joy    ​
Just smiling first thing in the morning, no matter what mood you wake in will slingshot you toward joy.  Cultivate it. Grow it with your intention. Find things in your past, your present and in your imagined future that spark joy.
