It's been said that Native American medicine men ask the sick three important questions before beginning any healing treatment:

• When was the last time you danced?
• When was the last time you sang?
• When was the last time you told your story?

Their answers provide valuable feedback and help them determine how severe the injury, illness and sickness is. We are so much more than our physical bodies. Food and exercise are important, but let's not forget the importance of allowing ourselves to play. To create. To take the time to tell our stories.
