BRILLIANT! SHOULD BE REQUIRED READING FOR EVERY DOCTOR , NUTRITIONIST, FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE PRACTITIONER, CHIROPRACTOR, NATUROPATHIC DOCTORS, MASSAGE THERAPISTS, PARTNERS, PARENTS AND PETS. (BUT WAIT, PETS ALREADY EMBODY THIS TRUTH.)
I learned about biopsy acceptance in my early 60s, having tried ebovery bloody diet I could possibly fail at. I now see my daughter struggling but I literally say nothing because she knows the health issues but will have to figure it our
T, hopefully much earlier than me. Why should I say anything. I really enjoy your column.
All of this reinforces three of my most deeply held beliefs about living well.
1/ Everything will change over time - including what our bodies are able to do for us as well as how the body parts and their appearance themselves are altered.
2/ Moderation in all things INCLUDING MODERATION.
3/ Adaptation is the engine of living well through all stages of life.
This and part one were posts that we should save and take out to read often. It is difficult to change one’s way of thinking.
I will be 61 on New Year’s Day. As I have for years, I drag myself to the gym 1-4 times a week, lift weights then get on the treadmill. Sometimes I think to myself, when do I get to quit this? I’m still soft in places and It takes so much time. But, I always feel better. And it pays off when running around with grand children or a crazy day at work (I’m a nurse) I suppose I’m waiting for my body to say “when”.
I will hang on to these columns and read them often.

Health isn't just putting oil and gas in the car - it's living well, purposefully.
I feel like I've just read the words I've been searching for for as long as I can remember.
Makes my day! ❤️

Yes indeed. Thanks for your ongoing support, Shmuel.
Deciding to fully - and peacefully - inhabit your body, while keeping it healthy, is a the goal!
