There was once a time when staying healthy was much simpler: when you ate food that was grown with care and without chemicals; when, if you were tired, you rested; we used to live in a bygone day when happiness was easily derived from the simple pleasures in life. Somewhere along the way, our Western culture strayed far from this track. We’ve been tempted away from the simpler, healthier life with the promise of excitement, fame, fortune, and the like. Oddly enough, we live longer than our forefathers and mothers but are not necessarily healthier than them. Nowadays, we eat foods that don’t look anything like their original form; we can’t afford to rest if we’re unwell; and our happiness seems buried in an endless sea of more and more “stuff”. Mix all this together and we’re overweight with bad postures, sick and tired, and unhappy with everything we have because we are trained to want more.
