Heidi Hemmat standingNot because I’m drowning myself in bleach, wearing masks on planes or covering my hands in surgical gloves like the family I saw at Denver International Airport when I returned from my business trip. (Yes, I’m still getting on planes and traveling all across the country to produce stories about victims of medical malpractice, wrongful death, personal injury, wrongful death, product liability–I have to and more importantly, I want to–it’s still my life’s calling.) The reason I won’t get Coronavirus –is the same reason I don’t get the Flu (and never had a flu shot). I’m healthy. I get up everyday –even if that means 4am –and I sweat. I workout hard. I eat healthy food. Instead of hoarding pasta and packaged sausages, I go to the grocery store and pick out my fresh produce and select my meat, chicken or fish. I prepare healthy, home cooked meals for my family. I turn off the news when I start to feel fearful, or sad, or depressed or discouraged. I avoid people who bring me down. I pray, I meditate. I live in faith, not fear. The most important story I saw yesterday –in the midst of the Coronavirus coverage–that I caught by accident as I was flipping to Disney channel (where there is always a happy ending) was a quick blurb about Alex Trebek, the host of Jeopardy. He was diagnosed last year with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. The 1 year survival rate is just 18 percent. He thinks he’s alive today because of his positive attitude. Not kidding. He believes thinking positively beat pancreatic cancer. That’s what I am going to –be positive. Have faith not fear. Be kind and compassionate. If I see someone sick or hurting, I won’t turn away–I’ll ask if they need help and help them -even if it means touching their hand. That’s how I’ve always lived my life and that’s why I believe I am blessed with a loving family, successful business and most of all, happiness. I encourage you to do the same, use the homeopathic remedies to boost your immunity (of course, wash your hands and don’t go out and cough on people if you are sick–that’s a no brainer), but do something for your health –meditate, climb a mountain, try alternate therapies, work out, sweat, eat healthy and be positive.
