Who we surround ourselves with either helps us stretch our wings and soar, or clips them again and again. Positive peer health norms encourage wellness lifestyle changes. Mutually beneficial relationships with friends, lovers, family and colleagues who care about us as people are what we need to seek and create in our lives. Rather than being threatened by our personal growth, they support it. Giving and receiving strokes are what it's all about.
Friends keep friends well.
Conscious living means becoming aware of all the choices we have and acting on them. It involves a realization that we don't have to run our lives on automatic pilot. It means consciously working on our relationships, life-goals, and maximizing our potential. We are all of one heart. Much of this sense can come out of the land we live on.
