THE POWER OF POSITIVE PEOPLE
Are you spending time with the right people for your health and
happiness?
While many of us focus primarily on diet and exercise to achieve better health, science suggests that our well-being also is influenced by the company we keep. Researchers have found that certain health behaviors appear to be contagious and that our social networks — in person and online — can influence obesity, anxiety and overall happiness.

I agree completely. 🤗 🙏🏾
@islandgent_713 It just makes sense on a lot of levels! Like, you usually do similar things with the people you hang out with that can affect health, but also attitude is totally contagious! I have taken some positive psychology courses and so I am always stoked when I see things like this in the news.
@islandgent_713 hmmm I think you are onto something...
It can be a Blue Zone for two reasons...Hmmm😜 🤔
@islandgent_713 hey I mean...if it works it works...
We have to identify the right sort tho...and go from there.
@islandgent_713 Lol...what are your qualifications! Haha. Like, high physical activity...on multiple levels?? ;p
@delphine Ok...I like where this is going. But let's think about it further. Perhaps multiple small groups within the community, groups of #SwitterMoais
@islandgent_713 I love it. And it would be easy to do with hashtags!
@islandgent_713 yes I believe I do shame we all don’t live on an island somewhere 😍❤️😍
I’m with you in that. 👍🏾👍🏾
I agree completely Queen. 🤗😍🙏🏾
No doubt beautiful. 🤗😍❤️🙏🏾
@islandgent_713 Thanks for the follow. I practice what you write about. Gratitude, mindfulness and only keep the positive people glove to you in your life.
@AnnekeVB thank you so very much for the kind words and the follow back luv. Much appreciated beautiful. And I certainly also try to live what I encourage. 😍❤️🙏🏾
@islandgent_713 I get to Houston once a year to shoot with a female photographer. Last visit I went to Lakewood. What you share is so what Joel preaches. No judgement, mindfulness, living a positive life with the same folks around you,
@AnnekeVB
Ah...that’s awesome if it’s also backed with action.
His reputation took a bit of a hit last year during Hurricane Harvey when he grudgingly allowed his massive cathedral to be used as an evacuation centre for people displaced by the flooding.
I’ve always believed that for whom much is given, much is expected. 🤷🏾♂️
@islandgent_713 I agree. Walk the talk. I have read about that a bit more in depth and while I don''t live there I think that was a lot media propaganda. I don't see him as perfect and she gets on my nerves but there WAS power in that place that morning. Hard not to feel it.
I hope the city never experiences anything like that again. But with climate change it’s a distinct possibility.
And I hope the Olsteen’s learn from that experience as well. This city really pulled together and they were kind of conspicuous outliers. 🤷🏾♂️
@islandgent_713 I hope you do not either and that the Osteen's never forget they are in the spotlight with the world watching!
@AnnekeVB
Indeed...thanks for the correction, it is Osteen. Obviously, I’m not a huge fan. 🤣🙏🏾
@islandgent_713 I figured that out. lol
@AnnekeVB 😂🤣
But here in The H their congregation is massive so I know a few parishioners and the Osteen’s are well regarded, as was his father before him.
@islandgent_713 Good Morning, I hope you had a nice Holiday season..😘
@LucyB
G’morning beautiful...I did indeed. Hope yours was the same. 😍🤗🙏🏾
