DAILY HABITS

     Why do we stop doing the things that make us feel good and expect to continue to feel good? We get to a point where we are sick and tired of feeling lousy all the time, so we make changes in our habits and our lifestyle. We start to feel better. Life looks up and we forget how it was. We take our new-found health for granted. And slowly, we slip back.
     We need to keep doing the things that are working for us for as long as they keep on working. We can evolve and fine-tune. But we have to realize that good health is largely the result of good daily maintenence of our bodies, our minds, and our spirits. If we don't bother to take care of ourselves on any front, we will feel the difference.
     It's easy to use stress and difficulty as an excuse to let slide our good habits, and yet, that is when we need them the most! To feel our best in any and all situations, we need to maintain our good habits no matter what, every day, for a lifetime.

I take care of myself so that I can enjoy my life!
