Revolutionary Acts

Healthy, fit people have learned how to be healthy. Learn those skills, practice them, and you’ll be healthy, too.

Don’t get sucked in by obsessions with six-pack abs and buns of steel. Don’t play “compare the bodies.” Fulfill your best-self vision.

Know the specific reasons your health matters to you. Write them down where you’ll see them daily.

If you feel a cold, flu, or nasty headache coming on, take evasive maneuvers. Rest. Refuel. Reconnect. Rebuild your immunity and vitality. There’s no heroism in ignoring your body’s needs.

A healthy life is more a marathon than a sprint. So start where you are. Choose sensible, sustainable shifts over instant cures and quick fixes.

It’s going to take a lot of strong, clear-headed, high-vitality people to solve the world’s problems. Be one of them.

Yes, this is about you, but your well-being also affects everyone and everything around you. When you get healthier, everybody benefits.

Don’t let yourself get run down, depressed, negative, or reactive. That’s when immunity drops, inflammation rages, and unhealthy tendencies strike.

Make whole-person vitality, well-being and resilience your goal. Partner with healthcare pros who understand and support your desire to be fully healthy with a minimum of medical interventions.

Research your own conditions and treatment alternatives, ask questions, and seek second opinions with impunity. Leverage the expertise of trained pros, but don’t allow it to eclipse your own informed instincts about what’s best for you.

You are not a “healthcare consumer.” You are a human being. You may be experiencing an illness or other health challenge right now, but remember that good health is your body’s natural state.

Reclaim responsibility for your well-being; own your daily choices; minimize your reliance on the broken sick-care system.

Look for signs of progress (beyond pounds lost) and rejoice when you find them. Give yourself a pat on the back every time you make health a priority.

Just because it’s popular doesn’t mean it’s smart or good for you. Enlist fellow trend buckers — and create a trend of your own.

When it comes to health and fitness information, authoritative organizations may not be your best source of advice.

You want to be healthy? Well, hey, that’s wonderful! This article is designed to help you succeed.
