DYOH Book Study Chapters 9 & 10

Chapter 9 – First Steps:  Your Choice of Health as a Priority

Our New Health Orientation:  Our Primary Choice, which is the most important to us, guides us to do the secondary actions that support it.  If the Primary Choice is Optimal Health then our secondary choices (healthy eating, exercise, stress reduction, restorative sleep) will support the primary choice for Optimal Health.

In order to bring focus to habits of health (our secondary choices), we need to create skills, strategies, and tools to make optimal health a reality.

    - Mindfulness – be aware of emotions, triggers and stress that can cause us to lose focus

    - Visit the doctor – knowledge is power; find out if there are any health issues that you need to focus on

    - Visit the dentist – dental health is also important as it can be directly tied to longevity

Question:  What secondary action may cause you to stumble on the road to optimal health?
