There are times when we can fool others. But we can never fool our body. It is the most sensitive barometer of our inner world.” -- Sherrill Sellman “Instead of frittering away your vibrancy with worry or distraction, realize your mind and body are inextricably united. What calms and tones up one, soothes and improves the other.” -- Marsha Sinetar "If you don't take care of your body, where will you live?" -- Anonymous
