One of my customers, Eric, emailed an interesting comment to me.

He recently met a girl and said that just hanging out with her feels incredibly healthy.

This is of course nothing new to anyone who’s been in love. Being in love can do wonders for your mental health. Still it got me thinking.

When a person asks he what they should do to get clear they are often looking for a formula, or step by step instructions. Sort of do this, that and those and you’ll get clear.

There’s nothing wrong with such an approach. It can get you a long way towards clear skin. But we have to be careful not to let the formulas and step by step instructions limit us. There’s more to health and clear skin those formulas can capture.

We are integrated beings of body, mind and spirit. Harmony between all three creates the perfect environment for health and curing acne.

There’s still place for formulas and step by step instructions also. Health and clear skin just cannot exist without certain things (good nutrition and exercise for example). Because by making wrong diet and lifestyle choices we set obstacles to health and sabotage the body’s efforts to cure acne. Following these formulas can make sure you don’t shoot yourself on the foot by making choices that don’t serve you. And Clear for Life does a particularly good job at showing not just these formulas, but how to apply them to your life also (because each of us faces different challenges and needs a different approach).

That’s the value of formulas and step by step instructions. They show you how to remove the obstacles to good health and clear skin. And that’s enough to get cure your acne.

But I think you can do much better by going beyond those formulas.

Here’s where things like these come into play.

  • Love and relationships
  • Friends and social circle
  • Creative expression
  • Spiritual practice and growth (for those inclined)
  • Taking time to do the things you love
  • Personal growth
  • Discipline
  • Traveling and experiencing things. My motto here is: "Make the most of your time on earth".
  • Being passionate about something
  • Setting and achieving goals. So you feel you are making progress on the important areas of your life.
  • Having a meaningful work.
  • Making a positive contribution to the world

That’s just out of the top of my head. I’m sure you can think few of your own also.

What common with all these things?

They put that extra spark on your life. Make you feel like you are alive. Make your life worth living.

I hope I managed to open up your thinking a bit.

So what could you do to create peace, happiness and well being in your life today?
