Variety

"Variation: A life filled with possibility must include the miraculous.  By trying out different ways of moving, thinking, felling, and acting, you will become more resilient and healthy.  By introducing variation into the way you move, you can end back pain.  By introducing it into the way you think, you will discover new ideas and solutions that wouldn't otherwise have been possible.  By introducing it into the way you feel, you awaken your senses and open doors to new worlds of sensuality and playfulness."
