| Back to your point: I’ve seen studies about how, if we get caught up in negative thoughts, we need to go out and shoot some hoops, or go for a hike, or just get out and [[breathe]] and get the [[energy]] moving. I know if I feel stagnant within myself I’m not good for anyone. So I get out--especially if the sun’s shining. | | Back to your point: I’ve seen studies about how, if we get caught up in negative thoughts, we need to go out and shoot some hoops, or go for a hike, or just get out and [[breathe]] and get the [[energy]] moving.

− | I remember from a talk by [http://www.drwaynedyer.com/ Wayne Dyer] (Sp?) that if we do an [[act]] of [[kindness]], even something simple like opening a car door for someone, or giving someone a flower, the [[serotonin]] level in our bodies rises, and that leads to a greater sense of [[Health|well-being]] and [[happiness]]. Not only that, it affects the person we’re being kind to. So it’s a win-win-win situation. That act of kindness can have a ripple effect on to others as well. | + | I remember from a talk by [http://www.drwaynedyer.com/ Wayne Dyer] (Sp?) that if we do an [[act]] of [[kindness]], even something simple like opening a car door for someone, or giving someone a flower, the [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serotonin serotonin] level in our bodies rises, and that leads to a greater sense of [[Health|well-being]] and [[happiness]].

| About [[physical]]-ness, I [[wonder]] if maybe we don’t really [[love]] being human and having a body--not [[romantic]] love, but what it means to be [[human]]. For some it just means having a nine-to-five job--if they have a job--or working two jobs to make ends meet. They may get a lot of physical activity done, but there’s no [[attitude]] of [[love]], only [[survival]]--and there’s a distinction there. There’s got to be more an unconditional love, love that has no boundaries or limits, no [[ego]] to it. | | About [[physical]]-ness, I [[wonder]] if maybe we don’t really [[love]] being human and having a body--not [[romantic]] love, but what it means to be [[human]].
