A PASSION FOR HEALTH

Good health supports strong passions. Studies show that exercise not only releases neurotransmitters such as beta-endorphins and serotonin but it promotes the flow of the body’s hormones. Without a heart pump to circulate its hormones, the endocrine system depends on the contraction of muscles to move its hormones around the body. So, exercise is vital to the support of passion.

But, good nutrition and rest are just as important to passion as exercise. Poor diets deplete the body of vital nutrients that produce the neurochemicals, hormones, and energy that support the feelings of passion for life.

Again, this is an area in which you can make dramatic improvements on your own or under the direction of a professional nutritionist and/or physical trainer. Even a simple gym membership that you actually use can help you to make measurable improvements in your level of passion.
