Make Your Health Extraordinary

The definition of ordinary health is that it occurs on it's own. Average health might look like this: wake up to the alarm, hit the snooze 2-10 times depending how late you stayed up watching TV. Then rush through the bathroom in order to get a 42 oz. cup of your favorite coffee on your way to work. Sitting in traffic because you slept in, you begin to get stressed. At work you punch in and sit down to piles of paperwork. Unfullfilled, you begin to daydream of the good old days and fatigue already sets in because besides the coffee for breakfast, you only had time to scarf down a donught. You begin to go to the break room to fill up you mega 42 oz. coffee mug. Now you are revived for another hour or so. Now it is time for your lunch break. There are plenty of fast food choices for 5$-8$ so you get the biggest bang for your dollar, a $4.99 Happy Meal. A half hour after lunch the carb crash hits and you head for the break room for one more refill of your mega 42 oz. mug of coffee. Then a few more boreing hours of pushing papers and you get to go home. Once home, you are tired from the empty calories from the day so you nestle down on the couch to see whats on tv. You order a pizza, eat that and then fall asleep on the couch from another carb crash that you don't wake up until you hear the alarm go off and begin the next day by hitting the snooze 2-10 time.



This goes on for months or years then you start to develope headaches, back pain, and digestive problems. You then begin to take medication for all of your aches and pains and you body continues down the spiral from ordinary health towards disease and farther and farther away from Extraordinary health.



Tomorrow I will write what Extraordinary health looks like and how to achieve it if you don't have it already.
