You choose health or volunteer for health each day by your daily practices. Each moment walking, dancing, exercising – each kindness to others – makes you healthier. Each choice of greatly-cared-for, pure, pristine foodstuffs of Mother Earth to sustain you – be “present” in that choice. Volunteer for it.
Be “present” in the care or growing or preparation of foodstuffs and herbs and view health as your creation. Be “present” at the creation of your own health!
Be “present” in the service of others and you will find that all health on earth is inter-connected. It is also a kind of planetary health, an interplanetary health!
