Step One for Mastering Your Physical You

Prioritizing and organizing. Everything that you do well depends upon these disciplines. Knowing the inner workings of your body may seem overwhelming, unobtainable or nebulous, but that does not minimize your need to master prioritizing and organizing on behalf of your body.

Whatever is holding you back from properly responding to the needs of your body is what you must master first. Your body, as competent and important as it is, is completely dependent upon you to care for it. Usually, people do not believe they can or are meant to do anything about the pain and problems. They believe they are victims of their own bodies. People also do not respond properly because they think they are too tired, too poor, too ignorant, too low on time, too lazy, or too cheap.  These are all a matter of priority.

What is holding you back from meeting the needs of your body? Some thought and devotion must be spent to identify where you rank the importance of your health.  Your body is more important than the car that transports you. Your health is more important than the shelter that protects you. Your body and senses give you the ability to enjoy you toys of technology now and hopefully for years to come. Do you treat your body with the esteem and reverence that you do for your most prized possessions and hobbies?

When your body's health has its rightful place, you will organize your life to maintain health.  You will be glad to serve your body with energy, time, money, diligence and good decisions. You will take responsibility to provide adequate and enduring support to keep yourself functioning and strong for years to come. You will learn to love and be thoughtful towards your precious body. Serve it well, and it will serve you well.  May your health last you a fulfilling lifetime.
