Rules For Getting Well

1. Learn to accept whatever decision is made. Do your best to keep your peace of mind. Peace is a healer.
2. Learn from our mistakes and allow others the same right. Don't stand over people, supervising every move. Learn to give others the opportunity to grow and grow up. We are all bound to make mistakes. Let's not gloat over them or live in remorse about them.
3. Learn to forgive and get on with your life. Many studies have now shown that forgiving enhances health and helps prevent chemical changes in the body that may lead to disease.
4. Be thankful and bless people. These are two of the main secrets to a healthy life. Have an attitude of gratitude.
5. Live in harmony. Be a peacemaker. Stand up for the one not present. Listen for the one not there to hear, see for the one without sight, and give praise and credit to others whenever you are able.
6. Don't talk about your misfortunes or illnesses. It doesn't do any good for you or the person you tell, and it presents an opportunity for them to do the same to you. Save it for your doctor. He's paid to listen to your troubles.
7. Don't gossip. Gossip that comes through the grapevine is usually sour grapes. Be the person who speaks for the one who cannot.
8. Spend at least 10 minutes a day meditating on how you can become a better person. Replace negative thoughts with positive ones.
9. Exercise daily. Keep you spine and joints limber, develop your abdominal muscles, expand your lungs with specific exercises on a regular schedule.
10. Walk 10 minutes barefoot in the dewy grass or sand every day. You'll sleep better.
11. No smoking or drinking alcohol. Both nicotine and alcohol are depressant drugs. Both require energy to detoxify the body, which energy is better used for life healing processes.
12. Go to bed by 9 P.M.. when you can. If you are tired during the day, rest more. Rest allows the body to give its full attention and energy to healing and rebuilding tissues. Write down your problems at the end of the day and go over them first thing in the morning when you are refreshed, so you can look at them with a fresh mind and body.
