Taking the Health Challenge
We pretend that compared with our friends, our own health is not so bad. The problem is that our friends are not healthy either. Most of us haven't experienced good health for many years.
This is a serious problem, because your poor health is shared within your family, and with your friends, if fact with all the people you associate with. Our social connections, allow us to do, and stop us from doing, many things. That includes aht we choose to eat, and how we exercise, and what we think about health.
We can't become more healthy because this invisible web of social connection keeps us trapped. I am "me" because I do all these things that link me to everyone I know. Doing something different is impossible if your vision of yourself (the "me" you imagine) is going to changed in a way that would disappoint or confuse your friends. We share together, both the good and the bad.
Your health can be improved, but you need to learn how to do that, and you need to do some things that will surprise your friends. This takes time. You begin by improving your knowledge. We suggest you attend one of our workshops.www.openfuture.biz...
