What is Health?

These are the pillars of health as shown by various pictures I've taken. Health, to me, means being conscious of the decisions I make in regards to my body and how they affect my overall well-being. Health has 5 pillars: nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress, and social. When I feel healthy, I am eating well, sleeping enough, exercising often, hanging out with people I love, and minimizing stress. Sadly, most of the time, I do not feel like I am healthy in all these ways. My weakest pillars are stress, exercise, nutrition, and sleep, in that order. I do believe I spend enough time with my loved ones, though. Personally, I need to change my pessimistic approach to health. When I am sad or upset (90% of the week), I find it hard to motivate myself to get moving or to not eat comfort food. Hopefully this will change.
