The key to being “healthy,” is to strive for balance in your physical and mental existence. While we may not have much control over external factors, which may play a key role in your mental health, we do have the power to decide what we put into our bodies and how physically active we want to be. Of course, each one will affect the other and it’s the old “which came first…” questions. One of the largest inhibitors of mental health is being in limbo and not knowing where to start. Therefore, to avoid being lost or overwhelmed, we encourage you to go with what you have control over. You can’t put water in your engine and pray that your car runs well. It will not! At the same time, you can’t expect to hike Mount Everest, without the proper training or preparation.
