As the winter evening falls, I sit and consider the luxury of Vibrant Health. Should being in Vibrant Health be considered a luxury? What do you think?
A person can function quite easily in our current world with any measure of Health that is better than Poor Health. Even now society is constantly working to be more inclusive and create more adaptive methods for people in a condition of Poor Health to function within society. Is this to society's credit? Probably yes.
How would the condition of living in constant acute pain or chronic pain be classified? Maybe Marginal Health, in the case of being able to live a moderately active lifestyle while in pain and possibly taking medicines to reduce or dull acute pain from more strenuous activity. Considering the high number of people who rely on painkillers to function in their chosen lifestyle, Marginal Health seems to be quite a common condition in our society.
Living with relatively Good Health is a condition of well being that most people strive to maintain. However, a person's Good Health achievement is measured in various ways depending on their lifestyle priorities and/or necessities. Some people are quite happy to consider themselves in Good Health if they have no acute pain in their body whilst going about their lives in a sedentary manner. Up a notch would be folks who have the same idea but with an active lifestyle. There are people who consider themselves in Good Health even though they have medical conditions that are being managed with medicines, allowing them to lead pain free sedentary or active lifestyles.
Better Health could be a category for persons living a moderately active lifestyle, pain free, and with no symptoms of medical conditions. Many young people would qualify as having Better Health, at least better than they might experience as they get older.
When a person shows no signs of aging(except wisdom), has no medical conditions nor markers for encroaching medical conditions, has no pain, and is able to live a very active lifestyle with ease, we may consider them as being in Vibrant Health. Wow, that's what I'd like, to be in Vibrant Health!
Is there a way to improve from Poor Health to Marginal Health to Good Health to Better Health to Vibrant Health? Most likely it is possible when we consider the human body's amazing ability to heal itself if affecting factors are changed in its favor. The big question is how to manage and change affecting factors? Next time... 😀
To Vibrant Health!!
