A Pair 'a Docks

…on the left you see a dock….on the right you see a dock….in the jungle this is known as a pair-a-docks….

The best success formula and best coach for our health and wellness initiatives is so close and yet so far. It’s an epic paradox. It’s us. You. Me.

Even In Nature, Youth Shields Animals From Many Future Worries

Youth have few cares, whether animal or human. Eventually, youth in the Animal Kingdom witness the brutal realities of survival. Then they shape up, or death will certainly call their name soon. What if we exposed our youth to the slow, painful (and expensive) death poor health choices bequeath unwise humans?

Which is harsher, witnessing the truth, or experiencing it personally?

Staying healthy is an adventure for busy Baby Boomers

There are a million and one health and wellness resources for Baby Boomers. And that’s the problem challenge, there are too many. Midlife adults fear looking stupid. With so many choices, making the wrong one is bad publicity for your personal image.

At the end of the day, your can spend your time wandering lost in the jungle of information overload, or follow your gut – the basics.

Disney's Jungle Cruise Audio Animatronic Animals

Nature has a way of keeping the herd healthy. It’s honest, real and actually, quite brutal. It’s called survival of the fittest. Modern society has enable the human species to override the natural health care system.

If we’re weak, slow or different, the human herd has figured out how to protect us. But we still haven’t cracked the nut on how to protect ourselves.

Disney World's Jungle Cruise Attraction

Get stuck out in the jungle for three weeks and Baby Boomers would most assuredly lose excess weight, assuming they didn’t get eaten by some hungry jungle animal.

But get rescued and three weeks later, Boomers would be right back where they started. This is the big challenge for a generation of adults who are supposed to be smart enough to know the basics for healthy living.

Wouldn’t be great if Baby Boomers had secret superhero powers to stop or slow down the aging process? Maybe a left jab. Or right hook. Yeah, like that’s ever gonna happen.

Dream a better dream if the one you’re dreaming isn’t paying off. You know this. Or have you quit?

Disney's Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin

Living next to Walt Disney World and calling Disney World “my hometown”, we visit all the time. Literally five-plus days a week. My son and I enjoyed Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, a giant video/laser game in which both occupants sharing the ride vehicle battle each other for high-score bragging rights.

But while waiting in the Disney que line, this sign (photo) made me think, as Baby Boomers, are we prisoners in our own bodies?
