Well, if the concept of gratitude for simply being is foreign to us, we need to learn about it. Health is waking up with a sense of energy, going through a day's work with that same sense of energy and returning to bed at night with it. Health is having as much energy before meals as after them. Health is the ability to treasure personal time in silence alone or with family and friends. Relentless thinking head fixation, as it may be called is a major stressor, and eventually causes dis-ease and disease.
Health comprises dynamic and well-preserved blood, liver and other body ecosystems.
The cell membrane separates the internal order of a cell from external disorder. Returning to the first element of resonance with the larger presence, health is the sum total of all atomic, cellular and molecular resonances that exist within the human frame. I do not consider this an abstract and metaphysical notion. Common sense holds that a part cannot exist without some relationship with the whole. Since each of us is an energy being that is part of the larger world, all of us have a definite relationship with all the energies around us that exist on the planet Earth and those beyond.
