Healthy and Unhealthy States and Cities # 16.

What is the health ranking of the place where you live? Do you think your town, state and region are above or below average in healthiness? The Gallup Corporation famous for The Gallup Poll asked people to rank their lives in six categories.

Overall Healthiness
Work Environment
Emotional Life
Physical Well Being
Behavioral
Access to health Care

They arrived at a top score of Well Being, Second, Third, etc. The bottom ten states are primarily located right here in the area where I live. 

Oklahoma
Indiana
Louisiana
Ohio
Alabama
Arkansas
Tennessee
Mississippi
Kentucky
West Virginia

What can we do to raise the level of Well Being? We at Sweeten Life Systems, Inc are working hard to improve the individual and corporate Well Being of the people in our cities, schools, churches and homes. We have set up training centers all over the planet and we see wonderful growth in interpersonal relationships in those places where people get involved. Take a look at the FREE You Tube and Vimeo Videos. The Gallup link is here and has all the rankings from top to bottom.

Do you suppose this indicates that the people in general who live in these places have worse relationships than those who live in Hawaii which was #1. Ranked in Public Health? Where do you place your church in terms of relational health and well being? Do you hear a lot of grace and mercy and love from the teachers and each other? Do you ever feel as though the preachers are taking their anger out on you? Do you leave church feeling peaceful or agitated?

Ephesians 4: ^14-16 We are not meant to remain as children at the mercy of every chance wind of teaching and the jockeying of men who are expert in the craft presentation of lies. But we are meant to hold firmly to the truth in love, and to grow up in every way into Christ, the head. For it is from the head that the whole body, as a harmonious structure knit together by the joints with which it is provided, grows by the proper functioning of individual parts to its full maturity in love.

 Write your comments on the blog. I would like to hear from you.
