The blizzard of '75 ... the mountains ... the ocean ... a graduation ... a treasured wedding ...
No doubt you can create your own list of memorable things. "BIG" things are easy to remember.
But what about the little things? What would those BIG things be without them?
~ the individual, unique snowflakes of a blizzard
~ the individual grains of sand that build a mountain
~ the individual drops of water that create an ocean
~ the minutes in the hours of study/preparation that result in graduation
~ the small glances, interchange, exchange of emotions that lead to a wedding
What would we do without the 31,536,000 seconds that make a year?
Likewise, your health is the result of many "little" things. The air you breathe, for example, is the result of breathing in roughly 25 sextillion molecules every time you take a breath at standard room temperature. That's 25 with 21 zeroes behind it!!
How important that those molecules are as clean as possible. If they are polluted, it can result in physical effects on all of the tiny cells that make up your airways ... allergy, asthma, difficulty breathing, etc.
Do little things matter? Absolutely!!!
Just imagine yourself sitting on a beach …. maybe a more isolated beach where there's not so many people. Or, maybe you're walking or hiking on a snow-covered mountain.

For me, personally, I can tell you …. besides being away from all the people and all the cars, away from the city.... besides all that, it is the fresh air that I am able to enjoy and breathe in. Because I know that air is clean.
But did you know 90% of the air you breathe is NOT from the "great outdoors"?

Scientists are discovering new things every day about how our gut affects the rest of our body. And, it all has to do with the microbiome, or the bacteria community, that lives in our gut.
Since the gut literally "feeds" every part of your body it only makes sense that there is a "gut-heart" connection. So, by showing your gut some love ... you will be showing love to your heart.
Are you up for the challenge?
