HEALTH MATTERS

HEALTH MATTERS OUT OF BALANCE 
What happens if we ignore body or mind – and the basic needs of both body and mind? If our body systems are not in balance, our health may be at risk. The foundation of good health is keeping all body systems in balance. This means making choices that keep our body systems free of toxins, and all levels balanced through optimum nutrition, exercise, rest and clear thoughts. The choice is called healthy living and the result is wellness.
HEALTH MATTERS – WHEN THINGS GO WRONG
Our body systems interact and are dependant of each other. If one system is running on low it will impact another – and the whole body system suffers as a result. The result can be ill-health, and clear to see. It is often hard to understand where the lack of balance comes from. It can take show itself in various ways.
