The
score of a normal fit and healthy human being is less than
20.
If you got less than 20 you're in very good nick.
If
you got less than 40 that's not bad, but the signs are there
that certain parts of your body are not working as well as
you'd like. You're starting to exhibit the signs and
symptoms of general metabolic dysfunction. |

Over
40 the amber light is flashing.
You're probably not as fit as you could be. You need a
fitness program. You may be a little over weight, in which
case you need a fitness program and the Hourglass Diet.
There's a chance there's evidence of musculo-skeletal
dysfunction, in which case you're not strong or flexible
enough to keep your body in alignment.
You
probably need a holiday or some good distractors that
distract you from feeling tired and miserable. |

Over
80 and you're getting right into the red zone. It's time to
take stock.
You
certainly don't want things to get worse, which they will if
you don't do something now. You could be in the wrong job or
the wrong relationship. There's probably something going on
in the top paddock that's not right and it's affecting the
rest of your body.
If
you don't do something now there's a good chance that pretty
soon you could end up on the medical hurdy-gurdy.

Over
100 and there are high scores throughout the profile. It's
definitely time for a lifestyle make-over. |
Certainly though,
at any score you're not beyond redemption. A lot of people brought themselves
back from the brink by becoming fitter, getting themselves in the
job and personal relationship they'd really like to be in.
In three months time you have the
power to halve your score b y doing the things fit and healthy
people do to keep themselves in good condition. All it takes is a
little time, effort and thought - and maybe some money.
Questions 1 - 20 deal with body
system dysfunctions that are closely related to a lack of physical
activity, a poor and an autonomic nervous system that's out of
balance. You can correct them by
1. implementing a regular and
systematic physical exercise program involving
- aerobic exercise
- strength training
- flexibility exercises.
2. Eating from the top of the
Hourglass
- with the vegetables,
fruit and adequate protein and fat
- steering clear of wheat
and milk
- eliminating white flour
and sugar from your diet
- eliminating alcohol,
tobacco and aspartame
- supplementing your diet
with vitamins, minerals and essential fats
3. Meditating.
Questions 21-23 have a
relationship with stress. As we become more stressed we tend to take
more of the culturally acceptable chemicals.
Questions 24 - 30 are questions
related to stress in your life, whether you're in the right job,
whether you have the resilience to cope with your internal and
external environment, whether you're doing the things unstressed
people to to manage their stress.
If you're struggling with some of
these issues, go and see a counsellor or a life coach. They'll give
you a few signposts, act as a sounding board, help you set and then
monitor progress towards your goals.
