    Freedom comes when you take charge of your own health. No one else can do it like you can, because there’s only one YOU, and each person is unique. You have a constitution that’s only yours – a body type, a certain way you respond to stress, a life history. You are a true original.…

The way the light reflects off of the crystalline surfaces, creating small sparks of color; the way each snowflake is uniquely shaped; how when it lays on the ground, its individual flakes merge into a soft blanket of white.

Remember a moment when you were truly joyful; it may be a simple memory, like dancing to good music, or having a meaningful conversation with a…
