The“right”to happiness
“We hold these truths to be self-
evident, that all men are created
equal, that they are endowed
by their Creator with certain
unalienable Rights, that among
these are Life, Liberty and the
pursuit of Happiness.”
– Thomas Jefferson
Is it a right or a privilege—the
right to happiness, that is?
Whatever your interpretation of
the wording of the Declaration
of Independence, it has become
a multimillion-dollar business
to help us all find our “right to
happiness.”
We may have come equipped
to pursue our own version of
happiness, but North Americans
seem to be endowed with the
pursuit-of-happiness impulse.
Many have the urge to find that
greener pasture or nirvana …
just over the hillside (or online,
for that matter).
What does that mean? It means
that the outdated definition
of doing more, owning more,
conquering the next challenge
has become an ambition to
“best” our neighbors, whether
by straight-out purchase or
credit. The snatch-and-grab
phenomenon has become a job
description for many and an “oh
well” for our neighbors.
Interestingly, this is not true of
those who live long and well.
Studies repeatedly tell us that
philanthropy and a spirit of
giving are essential to well-
being. While it may not be the
barn-raising or neighborhood
party in this day and age, the
impulse to help others is deeply
imbedded. All of the current
studies on “happiness” bear
out the fact that compassion,
concern, and action (in the way
of helping hands or physical
donations) make a difference in
the quality of life we all seek.
So, pass up the infomercials and
appeals you get in your mailbox
to “feel good about yourself”
with this tape or class. Release
even an ongoing commitment
to “feel good.” Instead, contact
the Full Life wellness team at
Touchmark at Fairway Village
to get involved in programs
and services that do make a
difference.

Now offering most advanced version of
balance assessment technology available
in Clark County
The new NeuroCom®
Balance Master®
assessment and rehabilitation system has
arrived at the club.
The Balance Master is one of the most advanced
tools of its kind. Through interactive computer
technology, the system identifies and evaluates
a person’s unique balance and movement
patterns. Using this information, the equipment-
trained fitness expert can then design
customized treatment plans. The system also has
the capability to offer real-time, instant visual
biofeedback as people perform the exercises.
In addition, Touchmark’s version includes
NeuroGames™ software that allows people to
“play” computerized games by shifting their
center of gravity. This also exercises the brain,
and recent research has shown performing
simultaneous physical and mental exercises
is one of the best brain-health activities there
is. Watch for more photos in next month’s
newsletter!
