Happy healthy, happy healthy, happy healthy, dead.

That was a quote from Louise Hay Saturday morning.  It's all about being happy, living a healthy life, enjoying your happy healthy life and then one day you are dead and it's true, we will hit that dead end.  Did you enjoy the ride?  I am here in Tampa attending the I Can Do It Conference put on by Louise Hay.  The keynote speaker Friday night was Wayne Dyer and he looks great, after finding out he had leukemia two years ago, he began yet another journey of his own to follow and now he states; "I AM healthy and I AM perfect health".  He eats even better than he use to, exercises and swims daily.  It was very interesting watching and listening to him, and there were over 2500 people attending last night.

I also had the good fortune of listening to him Friday morning at a writers group led by Cheryl Richardson and Reid Tracy.  At the beginning of the session Louise Hay popped in and spoke to us about how she got started in writing at the age of 60.  She had written a little prior to turning 60, but it wasn't until after she was 60 that she sold over 40 million copies of a very small book she had put together after encouragement from others.

Hay House is celebrating 25 years now and Louise is still going strong.  She is living proof that you are never too old to pursue your dreams.  The same is true that you are never too old to start exercising, eating better and taking care of yourself.  I have also had the good fortune of working with and training a couple of pretty fantastic women, one client was a 92 year old and most recently a 77 year old client.  Louise talked this morning about some of her daily rituals she practices to take care of herself.  She gets up every morning, thanks the bed for a good nights sleep, greets herself in the mirror, and repeats some gratitude's to herself and all before she even gets to the bathroom.  She also says she has a bar hanging from the bathroom door that she hangs from to stretch out and wake up her body.  This woman is 85 years old and still going strong.  Amazing

What is your excuse?  There really isn't one you can come up with that makes any sense.  You choose to live a healthier life or you don't.  It's really that simple.  Do you need help?
