The Holy Trinity of Health, Happiness and Freedom
None of these can exist without the others
Everyday Magic is the art of finding joy, enrichment, and meaning in the simplest and most profound of moments. When looking at life through the lens of vibrant health, soaring happiness, and limitless freedom, you see magic everywhere.
So this is our quest. To embrace this holy trinity and claim it as our own as we enter the “later” chapters of our lives.
A vibrantly healthy body carries us on the adventures we choose and fuels our freedom.
Freedom empowers us to create, to manage our perspective, and to choose happiness.
Happiness is the exalted expression of living in honor of our fully integrated, amazing selves, mind, body, and spirit.
None can thrive without the others.
There are, of course, exceptions. I’ve seen joyous, adventurous people with all manner of physical limitations. Victor Frankl wrote about being happy even in a prison camp.
But in general, for us everyday people, we need a vibrant, healthy body to bring us to the places that we want to go.
We need to have the power to choose our perspective and to be happy despite circumstances outside of ourselves.
