002: The 6 Pillars of Health

In this episode, we discuss the 6 pillars of health. These make up the basic foundation that the rest of our healthy lifestyle builds off of. The 6 pillars are clean water, whole foods, sleep, exercise, mental wellbeing and community/social. They apply to someone new to the natural health world, an experienced guru any anyone in between. We recommend everyone master these core aspects of health. Once you have a strong foundation then it's time to tweak the fine details. Have fun with these. An example might be going from reverse osmosis to freshly gathered spring water. Both are great but spring water takes your health to the next level! Have you heard of the 80/20 rule? It applies to your health! The 6 pillars above contribute to the 20% that produces 80% of your health results. By mastering these you get more bang for your buck.
