What does "healthy" mean to you?

There are many definitions for what constitutes a "healthy" person or lifestyle. How would you define the term? What behaviors or actions have you taken to be "healthy"?

  1. I've learned that being healthy isn't always about being physically fit. For me, health encompasses all areas of my life—physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. All of these make up who I am as a whole person.

    1. You always have such great perspectives on life. Thanks for joining the conversation. Warmly, Lori (Team Member)

    2. thank you so much

  2. Fit

    1. That's a great definition! Are you working toward fitness or do you have a good routine already? - Lori (Team Member)

  3. Eating healthy, consistent exercise, not overweight, no aches and pains and a sound mind

  4. BeIng able to move around without losing my breath

    1. Hi . Is that a struggle for you now? If so, is it something you're working on? Baby steps are often the best way to get started -- a few steps today and a few more next week can lead to a mile in a few months. If you suffer from joint problems, there other ways to improve your cardiovascular system, like gentle swimming or an arm bike. Thinking of you. - Lori (Team Member)
