The best six doctors anywhere

And no one can deny it

Are sunshine, water, rest, and air

Exercise and diet.

These six will gladly

you attend

If only you are willing

Your mind they'll ease

Your will they'll mend

And charge you not a shilling.



-Nursery rhyme quoted by Wayne Fields, What The River Knows, 1990.

Those who think they have not time for bodily exercise will sooner or later have to find time for illness.

That is so true Karyn.
I'd much rather spend an hour out walking
Then an hour waiting to see my doctor or picking up a prescription.

That is a really great philosophy Hugs.
When we listen to our heart we not only fulfill ourselves,
But we most often help others as well.

"Nothing tastes as good as fitness feels!"
Or..also worded as..."as being healthy feels"..or.."as thin feels".
For me.."fitness" says it all.


My own personal mantra comes from a bible verse....
"I can do all things through

“Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling. ”


I'm not sure who to even attribute the quote to, but I've always interpreted it to mean that we choose happiness through our own actions every moment of our day.

Those are very nice.


I like the way you shortened your bible verse so that it is your personal mantra.


I like the last one too!
