A harmonious body is a healthy and happy body. But one of the main obstacles to physical harmony is unproductive stress. The effective management of stress requires body energy additional to what is needed for basic body functions and for life's activities.  Energy enters the body as food, and some foods are better sources of energy than others.  The energy is then converted into usable calories inside cells; water is an absolute requirement for this process.  We actually are what we eat and drink! Energy is finally harnessed in our muscles for movement.  Muscles in turn require to be conditioned in order to perform well, and their optimum function depends on the equilibrium between how strong and flexible they are.  Overall body and mind balance is in fact, essential. You can take control of your own health by first being aware of what affects your body, and then  choosing the foods and activities that contribute to its well being.
