When most people think of this program, they tend to think of low-fat diets or exercise. However, if you ask Dr. Ornish the most important part of his program, his answer might surprise you. October is breast cancer awareness month and I invite you to join the Pink Army at www.jointhepinkarmy.com to help fight breast cancer in our community. There will be numerous opportunities throughout the community to participate and move up the Pink Army ranks. October also gives us the chance to attend the Orange City Movie in the Park on Oct. 3 beginning at dusk. The 2nd annual Howl at the Moon Golf Tournament takes place at Sandhill Golf Course on Friday, Oct. 10 with tee off at 5:30 pm. This DeLand Area Chamber of Commerce/Orange City Alliance event benefits The House Next Door. Sponsorship opportunities are available and player registration is $175 per foursome, $50 per player and $15 per non-player. Contact Robin@DelandChamber.org for more information. In his book Love and Survival: The Scientific Basis for the Healing Power of Intimacy, Dr. Ornish writes, "I’m not aware of any other factor in medicine – not diet, not smoking, not exercise, not stress, not genetics, not drugs, not surgery – that has a greater impact on our quality of life, incidence of illness, and the premature death from all causes than does love and intimacy." Jeff Levin, epidemiologist, puts it this way, “…experts have singled out love as foremost among the human emotions capable of promoting and maintaining health and achieving healing.” Our 4th Friday Ride will take place Oct. 24, 67pm starting in front of the DeLand Area Chamber of Commerce (336 N. Woodland Blvd) and ending at Café Davinci (112 West Georgia Ave.) about an hour later. You won’t want to miss this monthly activity. It is a great way to exercise and build lasting relationships. Social support may be one of the least advertised facets of health, and yet it has one of the most powerful influences. It can come in the form of a spouse, a close-knit family, a network of friends, church, and other group affiliations – like the Chamber of Commerce. Even a connection to pets can have a powerful positive effect on one’s well-being. We have reached the “I” for Interpersonal Relationships on our CREATION-themed journey to health and wellness. Social connection fortifies our resolve, improves our health and enhances our overall well-being. What do we mean by "social connection" or "social connectedness?” Simply put, it means interacting with other people, such as friends or relatives.

I thank you for your commitment to our goal of bringing health awareness to the business community and look forward to seeing you out and about this October. Sincerely, The best known example of the link between social connectedness and health may be found in Dr. Dean Ornish’s intervention for A proud member of the Florida Chamber of Commerce Ed Thank you...Renewals MEMBER Daytona Beach Resort Florida Hospital DeLand Miller Financial Advisor (Raymond James) DeLand Naval Air Museum Gallery Homes of DeLand Fix-Accounting Richard E.
