- You control your thoughts, your thoughts don’t control you

- Eat food when your body tells you – don’t complicate it, don’t over-think it, listen to your cravings, and pay attention to your body’s dialogue of what’s good and bad for YOU
- Sleep enough hours every single night – do ego-based priorities take charge?

This began as a short list and it grew to 15, which is still rather short as I’m trying to be fairly general since this is… you know… a blog about not complicating things. Having said that, I must attribute some of these points to stem off of the Chek Institute’s Six Foundational Principles for Health, i.e. Thoughts, Breathe, Hydration, Nutrition, Movement, and Sleep. I enjoy those broad approaches but, of course, I have my own way of doing things… and that, I think, is what is meant to happen when perspectives are shared…
Take what you need and leave the rest.
I’m not overly-elaborating on any of my aforementioned points because that would, again, negate what I’m going for here. They’re pretty straight forward and are open to your interpretation. If you are stuck on one or do not understand its place in your life, perhaps that’s an opportunity where answers are awaiting your pursuit.
