The health benefits of moving overseas


In my book, Claim Your Dream Life I cover many of tangible benefits of living overseas such as the lower cost of living and increased quality of life. There are also many intangible but very impactful benefits. One of the intangible benefits of living overseas I hear time and time again from my podcast guests is that they feel young and alive.

This wonderful feeling of being vibrant and youthful is just one reason we moved to Mexico. Before that, we lived in a much older community in Florida. The vibrancy in that culture was lacking. It was just not a good ‘fit’ for us. 

Being in a totally new and foreign environment is an exciting adventure. Think back about going to your first state fair or maybe on your first exotic vacation or some other life experience that left a big impression on you.

Recall the sense of wonder, the sense of joy of exploring new places, having experiences you never had before. Remember the sense of adventure, new discoveries, the wonder of it all. Imagine feeling that again, feeling young and totally alive once again. What is that worth? 

Unfortunately, Thomas Edison's prediction has not come to pass. Doctors primarily write prescriptions for patient aliments, rather than get to the cause. I'll discuss this in detail in my podcast. A primary trigger for dis-ease is stress. I'm sure you'll agree with me that the past 2 years have been as stressful as anyone can remember or imagine they could ever be. What if you could implement stress reduction strategies and practices that will produce instant health benefits? 

The reality is that you really can! Some are super simple, most require a commitment to doing certain activities on a regular basis. One of these is yoga. Check out this article with 16 - SIXTEEN! - proven health benefits of a yoga practice. One of my podcast guests in his mid 70's shared that was his secret to good health. I'll share his thoughts and recommendations for global health care coverage on Monday's live show. 

As Gandhi said “It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.” Without our good health nothing else really matters.

To a Happy and HEALTHY 2022.  See you in the CYDL GROUP.
