Meant To Be Healthy

Meant To Be Healthy

Today's post on Being Healthy stems from a realization (some might say a big duh) that Being Healthy must be defined and, over time, redefined by each of us.

Being Healthy today, January 12, 2013 means I am...

Physically Fit - running, tennis, yoga, walking, free weights and slant boards are my tools along with the awareness while doing these activities of the goodness I am bringing to my body. Eating healthy foods, drinking lots of water, and breathing exercises too.

Emotionally Strong - not letting negativity in nor letting it seep or slam out (with the occasional venting session with a trusted friend); detachment from drama - something I am working on, know it works because it has and does, and not yet consistently there.  Finding joy and laughter daily.  Meditation.  Eathing the occasional comfort food... This season it is popcorn practically floating in butter.

Financially Fine and Flourishing - focused on debt-free living; allowing financial abundance; realizing there is plenty for everyone and sharing is a way of caring and the universe provides.

Grateful - day and night now with increasing breadth, depth, and frequency gratitude fills me with JOY.  This JOY releases tears that were bottled up under a misconception of what being strong was.  Grateful for the passion for my profession of Learning & Development... For the amazing Friends that share themselves and let me share me so openly... For the family that loves, laughs, and enJOYs each other every day. 

Today, those are my Being Healthy buckets.  Checking in means being honest with my self, seeing the current state and what I want me to be, and making adjustments - sometimes fine-tuning, other times big ticket change.

What are your Being Healthy buckets? 
How are you taking care of your self?

Namaste
