"Just Do It"

                                              "The Greek made physical training an important part of education, not because he said to himself, 'Look here, we mustn't forget the body', but because it could never occur to him to train anything but THE WHOLE MAN .   It was as natural for the polis to have gymnasia as to have a theater or warships, and they were constantly used by men of all ages, not only for physical BUT ALSO FOR MENTAL EXERCISE . "


                                                                         The Greeks

                                                                         H.D.F. Kitto 

               I will employ the word (term)  >Hygiene<   to establish conceptual reality .   We shower and brush our teeth  EVERY DAY as a program for [of] personal  Hygiene . I am adamant and insistent that both physical and MENTAL hygiene are abject NECESSITIES for the establishment and maintenance of Health .    In the EXACT SAME WAY that showering and brushing our teeth is done WITHOUT THINKING so it must be with daily Exercise and Meditation to the point that these Required Two, Exercise and Meditation, are performed as SECOND NATURE, meaning, these Two are like >Breathing< a function of our autonomic nervous system .  

             The company "Nike" sez* it best in their slogan =  "Just do it" .

             In case you haven't already come across "Nike" -- She is the Greek Goddess of Victory and as such was highly honored by the Greeks .   You may even see her name as NICE but it is pronounced like niece .  In Roman culture she is known as Victoria .
