Apparently, we continue to go to the Dark Side where, according to Yoda “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.” Our own reality is a continual curriculum of LifeLong Learning and if we aren’t continually evolving and raising the bar, we get to repeat the past class. . .similar to Bill Murray in Ground Hog Day. Today, our country is in one of the worst Healthcare crises of all times. In 2009 this administration determined to make Healthcare a priority and called a summit meeting of experts in Healthcare to determine the course correction. The unanimous conclusion was Prevention Promotion would be the priority with a focus on LEARNING. The way we have ‘edumacated’ people in the past about Well Being hasn’t worked, and we needed to do this differently.
Several months after this meeting The Oz Show began with daily TV entertainment on Wellness. A Youth Health Corp was founded to get young people involved in educating young people. The whole country was emphasizing Creating Healthy Communities in magazines, newspapers, the internet, and residential areas: Celebration Health, Canyon Ranch, etc. So, The Field was bombarded with this Vision to ensure we would come together in a Shared Vision of New Mental Models and Systems Strategies to improve the American Lifestyle with an emphasis on healthier Body, Mind, and Soul sources. "Do or Do Not, there is no Try!" (more Yoda Wisdom)
How are we doing? The Well Being Gallop Poll has rated Missouri at a whopping 38th, putting us just above Arkansas, Kentucky, and Mississippi. The present projected cost for treating just Diabetes in the US is over $3 Trillion. Diabetes is directly connected to obesity and often referred to as Diabesity. Obesity is directly connected to depression and depression underlies 50% of all degenerative diseases including Arthritic, Respiratory and Heart.
May the Force be with You!” -Yoda, Star Wars (George Lucas)
