How to Give Your Superb Health to Others

Is it pos­si­ble to give your health to others?

Yes.

The world con­tin­ues to get sicker. This does not mean every indi­vid­ual is get­ting sick. Mil­lions are thriv­ing. Mil­lions have it fig­ured out. They know how to achieve superb health to the point where they can engage in any activ­ity they want. They wake up full of energy, have a pas­sion for life, digest food as well as pos­si­ble and never get sick. They are well on their way to feel­ing like a kid when they become 80 years old. Even 90. They show no signs of slow­ing down and sim­ply love life.

Is this you? Do you want this to be you?

I’m not there yet but I am well on my way. I’m on a life long jour­ney towards superb health. I’ll never reach per­fec­tion because it does not exist. But, I’ll strive for it while doing my absolute best to limit my stress.

In order to give your amaz­ing, vibrant health to oth­ers you must first find it your­self. You must feel the magic and live it day by day. You must move on when you feel like you have fallen through at any given moment. You must never stop edu­cat­ing your­self. You must study your­self. To find out if X food is wrong or right for you, exper­i­ment. I say wheat is not meant for any human being. To find out if this is true for you, elim­i­nate it for 30–60 days. Keep track of how you feel. Then re intro­duce and keep track of how you feel.

Real­ize that health is a life long jour­ney. Seek to improve but be okay with where you are at any given moment.

When you show improve­ments in your health your fam­ily and friends will nat­u­rally begin to ask you ques­tions. If you lose a bunch of weight then they will want to know how you did it if they need to lose weight them­selves. Maybe you had acne but now have per­fectly clear skin. Those who still have acne will want to have skin just like you.

So give it to them. Tell them how you did it when they ask. Remem­ber that health is a life long jour­ney. Just because it worked for you does not mean it will work for them. This is great! Encour­age them to never stop. Tell them that they may need to fail a few times. Fail­ing is good. When you fail, you can learn a lot. If you fail it shows that you at least gave an effort. If you never fail then you are not try­ing hard enough.

Don’t push your lifestyle on oth­ers. That’s not giv­ing. That’s theft. It’s steal­ing their freedom.

I live pri­mally. I do my best to avoid grains, sug­ars, indus­trial oils, legumes and con­ven­tional dairy. After doing this for 20 months, my fam­ily is finally start­ing to jump on board. I don’t push it on them. They see my over­all health improv­ing and want to see the same in them­selves. They ask me ques­tions. They want to learn more.

I choose to live a healthy lifestyle. This has enabled me to give health to oth­ers. This may be the great­est gift in the world. The great­est Christ­mas present any­one could open.

Or maybe a hug, smile and the words “I love you” will do.

What are you giv­ing to your fam­ily and friends this hol­i­day sea­son? Love? Health? Appre­ci­a­tion? Gifts?

    How true, Todd. The great­est gift we can give oth­ers is our true pres­ence. When I am being vibrant, hale and joy­ful I can inspire oth­ers to live vibrant, hale and joy­ful lives. When I truly feel wor­thy of all that is good and beau­ti­ful, I share this feel­ing and spread it around. We ccan help oth­ers to feel this way about them­selves. Now that’s the spirit of true giv­ing. What you give away, you get to keep.

    I love this. I am cur­rently home with my boyfriends fam­ily for the hol­i­days and they all think I am a lit­tle nuts for being healthy. I never try and press my health ideas on any­one but when they ask why I tell them my rea­sons. I also try and cook a few meals while I am in town where I know they are stealthy and that oth­ers will like regard­less of their health­i­ness or not. It is always a strug­gle though when you are trav­el­ing to the Mid­west where every meal comes with a meat and a side of meat. :)

    Hi Todd,

    Your words are so true. I love this line, “That’s theft. It’s steal­ing their free­dom.” I have never thought of it like that before, but you are so right. When we push our ideas on peo­ple, it is tak­ing away their right to choose their own eat­ing style. I am a basic healthy eater, not too extreme in any one direc­tion, but I have cut back on eat­ing wheat as well as red meat. Oth­ers may notice, but I try to just set an exam­ple, with­out a lot of dis­cus­sion.

    Hi Todd,
    I think this is essen­tial: “In order to give your amaz­ing, vibrant health to oth­ers you must first find it your­self. “
    In all of my roles in life, I used to serve oth­ers first; it took me a life­time to learn to allow my inner well and exter­nal being to be full of opti­mal nutri­ents and move­ment on all lev­els so now all that I ingest is life enrich­ing and all that I share is just as life enrich­ing. It is a con­scious choice, which requires aware­ness and lots of con­tin­ued learn­ing and growth..but is it is a fun and excit­ing choice because my life is truly as mag­i­cal as I allow it to be. Which is what I reflect to and share with my chil­dren and those who share space with me through­out the day :)
    I think the great­est gift we may give one another is the gift of presence.

    I appre­ci­ate the most the power of the smile! When my kids blink and smile at me, I can do noth­ing else but to kiss and hug them and be in a bet­ter mood!

    I’ve been lucky enough not to get sick in the last cou­ple of years, and I’m always advis­ing my fam­ily mem­bers on how to avoid catch­ing other people’s colds.

    I always eat fresh veg­gies and healthy juices. I don’t push my lifestyle on any­one but if they ask why you are so healthy then I will tell them.
