Health is defined as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social wellbeing; not just the absence of disease.” I like half of this definition… the “not just the absence of disease” part, because it acknowledges that there’s so much more to being “healthy” than just not being sick or having disease. But the other half, about achieving COMPLETE or perfect states of physical, mental, and social wellbeing, just isn’t possible. We can continue to strive to live and feel like the best versions of what health means to us, but unfortunately we are never going to be perfect. Being healthy is not a fixed outcome, or a destination. It is a JOURNEY, a way of being and of living.
