How you prioritize health determines how long you will live, what you are able to do in the meantime, and how you will feel along the way. It affects your mood, your strength, your decision-making, your tolerance for frustration, boredom, and stress, peace of mind, self-esteem, happiness, and life satisfaction.

The difference between function and dysfunction, order and disorder, mental health and mental disease, is whether a person can accept reality and temper their reactions to it. Reaction management and mental health are the same thing, and both are aided by exercise, a good diet, and good sleep hygiene. Prioritize health, and you prioritize yourself.

Health consists of many parts, and all of them are built on a sturdy foundation of physical and mental health; free from overwhelming stress. Physical and mental health are not the same thing, but you cannot change one without affecting the other.

While a personal coach can give you a great, customized approach to your specific needs, the rules in the recovery tab are universal. Nurture them and you will see results.
