What is health?
Health is more than simply the absence of disease. Health is a state of well being that requires the coordination of physical, emotional and spiritual parts functioning at or as close as possible to 100%. Each is important and each depends upon the others.
Physical HealthYour body was not designed for the couch, the couch was designed to fit your body. If you don't use it, it will get weaker. |
Emotional HealthThe more you understand yourself the healthier you will be. |

The World Health Organization in 2000 ranked countries in terms of overall health performance, and the United States was thirty-seventh on the list, though it spends more per capita for health care than any other nation. One of five children in this, the richest country in the world, is born in poverty. There are more than forty countries that have better records on infant mortality. Cuba does better. And there is a sure sign of sickness in society when we lead the world in the number of people in prison--more than two million.
