Vote

Your vote counts. November is a time that we all will consider what we want, need and deserve in our lives.  You can elect to make the commitment to live a life that is abundant in healthy opportunities and benefits.  Consider putting any or all of the following on your personal ballot:
 
Connect.  The people we spend time and connect with can be a greater determinant to health than obesity, smoking and high blood pressure. As we age, socialization continues to be critically important to our overall well-being. Several studies have shown that people who are more social get sick less and have healthier minds. 
 
Create.  Design your nutritional intake for what works for you and your body, not by what the newest study or fad proposes. Commit to those foods that fuel you.
 
Calm. Focus on lowering your stress by enjoying those things or activities that you truly enjoy; yoga, reading, cooking, talking, taking a bath and journaling. Say yes to yourself more often and schedule time to return to a calm state.
 
Cultivate.  Develop ways to move more. Live a movement inspired lifestyle. Walk, dance, skip, ride, scooter, sit less. 
 
Go ahead, vote for yourself for a lifelong appointment that is worth running for and towards.
