I’m so excited to finally join my fellow bloggers and all the contributors in the “O” zone!
I’ve been lurking for the past few weeks, sizing everything up and there are some interesting discussions going on. Hope my blog will contribute to the forum overall.
So, hey, everyone. I’m Cathy Lawrence, Health Editor at Q. It’s a sunny, blue-sky day here at the opportunity company, and we’re coming up slowly out of the dredges of a Michigan winter.
Back to at least 10 hours of sunlight a day, which means the cardinals are calling territory, swift red against the snow or outlined in bare branches against the bluest sky of the year.
Last night, I left at twilight and the sky was purple to the east, moon rising, wheels sticking and pulling free from wet pavement. A moment like that makes you breathe deep and stand taller. And that’s (not coincidentally) a perfect segue into the topic of health. Sweet, huh?
If you’ve ever had the privilege of meeting Dr. Duke Johnson, at the Nutrilite Center for Optimal Health, you know one of his big interests is Optimal Health. He lectures and writes on it, he consults on it, and he believes in it.
This blog is written in the spirit of a lot of his precepts, that health is not a condition; it’s a destination. And that at least 8 – and maybe more – contributing factors are at play, so there are very complex dynamics at work. I want to take a look at all of this, the individual aspects of it and the complex interactions between them.
And if somewhere along the line something catches your eye or raises a question, jump in.
By the way, I like to do things by the numbers. (OK: big lie #1) In any case, I’m going to put a number you need to match with one correct answer from several. The correct match will tell more about me. Today's number is 33. And it’s the answer to which question?
- My lucky lotto number
- The times I’ve hit my thumb while nailing and not sworn
- The number of places I’ve lived in
- How old I am.
Answers to come in the next blog. Til then!
