11.14.13 A Question of Balance - Some of My Favorite Things.....For Your Health


-If it's cold outside, cover your neck, front and back, and your chest with your coat and scarf.

That way, your body's fuel and your immune system won't have to use themselves up sending heat to those places, and instead, that they can go off and make your immune system strong

and eat up cancer cells and viruses and good things like that.

-Keep your feet warm. Wear warm socks.

Then your body and your immune system won't have to spend extra energy keeping them warm enough, and they can go off and do the other important things I just mentioned.

Health. Feeling good. Longevity. Not being vulnerable to cardiovascular problems and cancers and many other things.

-Many that you didn't even think about until maybe someday you or someone else gets them. And then you say to yourself, "oh crap. It's true."

-In cold climates, whenever you don't keep warm, your body will make an effort to keep warm.
Not dressing warmly enough isn't a measure of your strength or virility or vitality. Contrary to how many of us were taught, it does not make you healthier and tougher. It simply meant that the toughest survived- and the other got worn out ... And didn't .
-Try to think carefully about this. It doesn't make your body stronger. Just makes it work harder.
- kind of like having your heat on while you leave your windows wide open all the time. It's a silly use of resources.

Go find your favorite locally owned store that has a good array of skinny warm socks. Wear them. Keep your savings account (your feet) warm.  


Keep those places warm and wrapped up. Your health will thank you for it.
