Not bad PT. Although, my number 1 on the list would be "eat healthfully". And number 2 would be "exercise mind and body". For number 3 I would combine 1 and 6.

Are there any guidlines for your healthy diet, or is it the ever popular "American moderation diet" that allows for anything that feels good short term.

I guess joyfulness and happiness are interchangeable. I'll call it "happiness". Which comes first? Does wellness lead to happiness? Or does happiness lead to wellness? Being that happiness is a relative term, does anyone know how much happiness it takes to be well? I don't have any health problems (I pretty much have total wellness) so should I therefore conclude that I am sufficiently happy? Is that the measure one should go by?
