It’s contest time again at High on Health! Here’s the prize-
I love, love, love Inna Segal and was lucky enough to get the opportunity to meet her early last year. I actually did an hour long video interview with her which sits inside theClearestSkinEver.com coaching program.
You can also buy her book and CD in my store.
Inna has some super interesting things to say about treating disease in the body and treating acne specifically. The book is a handy guide on the emotional connection between disease and emotions. There are even a couple of daily meditations in the book that you can do to heal your skin.
The prize also includes a couple of CDs. The first is a series of audios on how you can self heal your own body. The second CD I’m quite proud of because I asked her to record it and she did! It’s a series of meditations designed to heal the skin. There is even an entire meditation specifically for healing acne.

i hope ill win!
Hi Fran,
I am so exhausted from exams this week, so unfortunately my brains a little fried. But all I can think of is my sisters. I have been blessed with three beautiful sisters all younger than me, and the thing that makes me happiest is spending a day with them window shopping in the mall. I also love hanging out with my boyfriend at the park walking and laughing about little things that come up during the week. I believe life doesn’t have to be compicated those two things I woundn’t trade for anything. I love family and friends and that is all I need to feel happy inside.
walking makes me happy. and sunshine and laughing and my family an friends. i love listening to music and sitting on my roof and enjoying nature. i love sitting in the rain and looking at the sun and letting the sun take away all of my problems.
Hey Fran,
I’m lucky enough to live in place where there is a women’s only ocean bath – it’s nestled amongst all these beautiful rocks and greenery, under a cliff where you can always see colourful crabs and sea creatures. Getting down there really early in the morning, when there are hardly any people around except for these amazing elderly women who swim nude (!) all year round, makes me feel refreshed, content and gives me a bit of a giggle. My favourite start to the day!
my absolute favorite thing to do would be going to the beach. I was born in Brazil, and have lived in the United States since I was 12 — for 10 years. Unfortunately for the moment, I live in Lincoln, Nebraska where there isn’t much such, or any beaches at all. however… I used to live in Florida, and I make sure to escape the snow by either going to florida a few times a year, and going to Brazil for a month or so… Don’t ask me why, but being outside in the sun, playing volleyball, soccer or futevolley is the best feeling there is for me. It makes me feel free and happy, and I just feel like everything is possible when I’m there. All my problems seem to truly gone. And I also love to dance. It brings my self esteem up, because unfortunately in life we don’t get to do everything that we love, most of the time so that we can secure our future… and we tend to do things that we’re not that great at, but we still try hard to learn and practice new things… well, when I dance, I don’t have to try, it just happens, and it makes me feel like I know who I truly am as soon as the music starts….
… sorry, hehe that was really long… but you asked, and I answered!
Btw… great job with your site! very helpful!
Hello Fran. My absolute favorite thing to do is read books about how to improve my health holistically and watch documentaries. I love foodmatters. Thank you for sharing that. Also, family and friends make me happy and laugh. I would not have been able to make it without them and you too. Thanks. I hope I can be you friend; web friend beause i live in Canada! Thanks for this oppurtunity and sharing with you readers. Bye.
My absolute favorite thing to do is sewing. Whenever I sew, I feel good and it gives me the sense of accomplishment once I am able to finish a project. It’s therapeutic. Things that makes me laugh has to be when I am around family and good company. I love being around people with good vibes. Even a grumpy person when being around people who makes you happy, stop grumbling and laugh!
my absolute favourite thing to do is art, expression and all that may pertain. It’s hard to choose one thing, but it includes guitar, painting, sewing, yoga, cooking and writing.
My absolute favorite thing to do is photography! It’s the best feeling to capture a perfect moment in a photo. A lot of things make me happy and laugh but mostly my close family and friends.
I absolutely love being with the funny people in my life – my sister, my man, my mother, my Jill – and doing artistic activities together. Hunting through used book stores, making hilarious cards to send in the mail, coming up with dance routines and generally commenting on the hilarity of life. The powerful quiet of nature also makes me pretty satisfied.
Hi Fran,
So many things make me feel wonderful! Some of my favourites include gardening (and eating the fresh fruit and veggies on my way!), playing or listening to music, being outside but I would have to say that my absolute favourite thing is spending time with my wonderful friends. When I am around them I always seem to be in a good mood and am definitely always HAPPY! I love the fact that we are always laughing and joking around. I also love the fact that I get to look forward to spending more time with them the next day at school!
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to share my feeling Fran!

Hey Fran,
My absolute favourite thing in the world is spending time with happy, friendly, like-minded people! Especially catching up over some of my favourite activities such as exercising, nature appreciation, and eating (yummy and nourishing food of course). It’s really special to find friends who immediately make you feel happy and comfortable in who you are!

Thanks for the giveaway!
My favourite thing to do is just be with my fiancee. He works long hours so I love to just forget about the world and be with him. We have bubble baths, massages, watch movies, joke around, cuddle
Hey Fran,
My favourite thing to do is go walking in the countryside with my family. The fresh air really lifts my moods and the gorgeous English countryside provides some breath-taking views. It makes me sit back and appreciate all the amazing things nature gives to us.
When I get back home and Im tired and my legs ache I like to have a long bath with music and a good book.
Take care,
Laura
I love the people in my life who makes me laugh all the time. Spending time with my family and friends, watching a good movie or baking makes me happy.
thanks Fran!
Playing with my two cats brings me so much joy and laughter. Their playfulness and energy is infectious and really raises the vibrations. They can turn a sour mood to a joyful one in an instant. The love of animals is truly miraculous!
I seem to be the first dude to respond to this… how about that!
I love to be out on the golf course. Playing a round of golf with my buddies, brother, and/or father is so incredibly pleasant. Knowing that I am going to be 4-5 hours away from everything else is a true treat. Hearing the birds chirp as I step up to the tee or line up a birdie or par putt is beyond Amazing.
Scrambling through the forest, seeing my ball land in a pond, or the sand also adds fun to the game. Then, of course, sinking a 15 foot birdie putt that seems to happen once every 3 rounds or so.
Golf is a time to really socialize with whomever you are playing with. Movies don’t allow for socialization. But, golfing, there is plenty of time. Being outside, soaking in the sun, sitting in the shade, riding in the cart or carrying my own bag, having a good laugh over a duff or a shot that went 50 yards to the right. The frustrations and the joys. It all counts in a nice round of golf. I can never get enough golf. Never.
What makes me happy and laugh the most is without a doubt my family. I would trade nothing in the world for my immediate family and then my closest relatives. My friends come second, but nothing is ever more important then those 2 people that made you, and then those other people who you grew up with, who made you you – siblings. I ALWAYS look forward to spending time with any of my family members and always will.
God bless everyone!

My favorite thing to do– what makes me happiest– is dancing. I love getting swept up in the beats of the music, forgetting time and place and space and just BE-ing with that music through my body. That sounds a bit corny, I know, but I can’t think of a better way to describe what I feel when I’m dancing that makes me feel so happy. Oh! and of course, having a sure-footed handsome dance partner only adds to the bliss!
What makes me happy is learning and embracing the spontaneity of life – I love architecture and interior design, dancing, gardening, reading, nature [especially kayaking! though i've only ever done it once], practicing and learning to life a healthy life, and of course socialising with friends and family. And i love seeing sunrise every morning. Something that really makes me happy and laugh is my cat! I love him to pieces. The only thing predictable about him is that he’s unpredictable, and he is never short of energy to play.
My absolute FAVORITE thing to do is lay outside with a good book and an even better friend…soaking in the sun and reading…And every now and then, between pages and uncontrollable laughter with my best bud – I look at every blade of grass and the sky and each leaf and I see how crisp and beautiful each form and color is and how this beauty exists no matter what – it reminds me that no matter what I’m feeling it is always here and is always beautiful – and God created each cell and each fragment of color ..which means he created me with even more precision and concern… so no matter where I am I can go back to that moment and remember the hopefulness that starts in my stomach and rushes to my head and inspires me to enjoy life and appreciate all that I have and all that I am!
What makes me happy and makes me laugh are the same thing – enjoying a great inside joke with friends and family – making me laugh so hard and smile so wide that my stomach and cheeks ache afterward with that purity of joy and connection with the people I love!!!
I love getting out and meeting new people. I’m attending college now so obviously there are people all around and so so so many chances to find people with the same interests as you or branch out and meet people with different interest too!
Just me being me. and ME!
This is funny, but I am the one who makes me happiest and makes me laugh. Sometimes I act stupid and it’s funny. Somtimes I’m angry, upset, or even anxious and it’s really ridiculous and funny. Our experiences are so personal, rare and situations are so unique, sometimes you can’t help but just laugh about it cause it’s so crazy, coincidentally and insane! =) Yeah, you laugh thinking, “yeaup, that just happened, wow”. LOL…or “yeaup, that just came out of my mouth” LOL. Funny.
My favorite thing to do would be felting, a process where you take raw wool and connect the fibers together using water or needles. I love the organic feeling of it and the handmade process. It gives me pleasure to know I am able to create just wonderful things with just a simple and natural process. And the variety of things you can do is amazing.! woo go felt!
I love snowboarding and biking in the mountains, I love volunteering and travelling, I love going to good concerts… I love all of these things, but what makes them meaningful is the memories that come about when sharing these favourite activitities with friends.
You asked me what is my absolute favorite thing to do? What makes me happy and makes me laugh?” It’s celebrating life with GOOD FRIENDS!
My favorite thing to do is hike in Joshua Tree National Park with my wonderful husband. There is nothing like it…
My absolute favorite thing to do is play beach volleyball!! I love the sun and the sand!! can’t go wrong. thanks for a great blog Fran!
My favorite thing is do is to go to a bookstore, browse the aisles, read the summaries, and sit down at the cafe with a really good book that can open my mind!
Hi Fran
One of my favourite things to do is ‘daydream’ daydreaming about the possibilities that can be achieved in life. As well as going out for drives with my sister and mum to the beach or just having a good days worth shopping or just feeling great in general.
What makes me laugh is when I watch really good funny movie or a comedian and having a good chat with my younger sister in the UK where we can laugh about anything and it leaves us with stitches in our belly. Laughing is just the best, I totally love it
I love spending time with my friends and going places with them. It’s fun to just get together and laught and talk.
I cant say there is one thing that i love doing, but two, or three. I find the most satisfaction in either riding my horses or working my dogs, particularly the youngsters. the best feeling in the world is when you get over a major leaning curb & things just click and fall into place.
Playing with my children! The all encompassing love and laughter that playing my three boys gives to me is priceless. Sitting and playing with trains or taking a walk and looking at every flower and bug; it doesnt matter what we play. It is a chance to see through the innocence of a childs eyes and remembering to live life with joy.
I love getting up before the sunrise to give my cows/chickens some hay/corn to eat/bury their heads in. Yesterday one of my chickens took me by surprise and ran through my legs.. I got off balance.. fell into a pile of chicken feed and while I was laying on the ground laughing, another one jumped on my stomach! ..Now I have never seen a chicken laugh, but I’m sure that one was doing it!
I love helping lost animals!and it making me smile all day!
I’m not sure if this is my number 1 favourite thing to do but …lying on the tramp in the summer with my ipod playing an awesome song. It’s soooo relaxing and I can pretend I’m the only person on earth. Not that I would want that but it’s just really peaceful that way. Or alternatively if it’s raining dancing like crazy to music in my room.
The thing that brings great joy in my life is playing lasers with my cat. Her little play face makes me smile inside and out.
Hey Fran,
As a 3rd year Indonesian medical student I dont get that many opportunities to travel and travelling is a passion of mine, so whenever I get the time off thats what I love doing.I enjoy going to beach destinations and snorkel, dive and just absorb the positive energy from such places. lombok island has so many picturesque and isolated beaches and beautiful reefs that I always try to go there whenever I can and explore more of it. Its one of those places I just have a bond with. We have a really big close knit extended family so being around them is really fun, hitting the gym,chilling and clubbing with friends is always great and eating spicy indian food is just the best.
my mantra to always be happy is believing that everything that happens to us happens for a reason and more often than not what we thought initally was really bad incidents, in the long run, when we look back at it we might actually be really happy that the circumstances turned out the way it did. so even during adversity we can put up a braveface and deal with the situation instead of sulking about it.and of course Fran, reading your blog is always fun and very informative so keep those entries coming! 
My absolute favorite thing to do is to be surrounded by the people I love, and creating a positive environment for everyone to enjoy the company of each other. Warm sun on my skin makes me happy and my pug makes me laugh because his tongue is too big to fit in his mouth so he is constantly sticking his tongue at me!…It gets me everytime.
My absolute favourite thing will be to hang out at the beach and relax. I coat myself with sun block and bask in the sun to relax, I also love seawater.
I always laugh when I hang out with my niece. She is a ball of fun, always passing innocent comments that makes me laugh out loud.
Imagine me hanging out at the beach with my niece. BLISS!!!
Thanks for this competition!
Its AMAZING what a difference 2 years makes. 2 years ago what made me happy was to go out with my friends to the club and have an all out drink up. TODAY after a period of illness what I love to do and makes me happy is gardening! Growing my own produce..me? Girl it still shocks me when I say it.
My favorite thing to do is wake up early on a Saturday, drink a hot cup of tea and write! I always feel calm, optimistic and very center during this early weekend morning ritual.
Hmmm . . Oh!! I got it! the most wonderful thing for me is getting out my assortment of paints and brushes and just painting away at a canvas. . . sometimes flinging or slapping paint away too -its soo fun, therapeutic, liberating, awesome!! I thought of this because it often makes me laugh at the end result . . .when I step back and actually take in what I’ve created and realize its a whole mess of paint. Whats even more fun is getting a friend to do it with you or work at smushing the paint around together (date idea!) -I think its the feel of the paint between your fingers and the vibrant colors . . .It can let rise the creativity in anyone
Thank you for the opportunity to say that & great idea for a giveaway Fran!
My passion is to learn. To seek for Truth and expose what is not. To trace the threads that weave all people together, and unite us as one. To serve others with sincere care and concern; without selfish motives or expectations. To lead a simple, yet meaningful life brings me utmost JOY!
Hello Fran. My absolute favorite thing to do is just spend time in the nature. Just sitting there, walking or even biking. Just relaxing and enjoying the present moment. Right now I live in a really crowded city with my fiance, but we just bought a house on a lake out in the country and I feel so lucky, it’s gonna be amazing to hear the bird singing.
But most of the time, in the end, we would not change what we did if we could, we would still do it exactly the same way! Thanks:)
What is making me laugh is being with people I love and telling each other old stories about us, about things we did in the past and look back to realize we grew up
My favorite thing to do is study different languages because I think being able to communicate and talk to people all over the world is really fun and important. What makes me laugh? Anything really, but usually my good friends and boyfriend can always make me laugh.
I love exploring new opportunities or people or places. Just getting out and seeing the world is a wonderful feeling.
Also being able to help people brings me so much joy. I’m going to be starting a crisis intervention class to become certified to help vitims of domestic abuse and rape. Although the situations are terrible, I’m so happy to help them..
my favorite thing to do is go to Native American stores! they ALWAYS have coolest things there! what makes me happy is seeing someone else happy, that just makes my day. what makes me laugh? thats tough. . . everything makes me laugh. . . i guess my friends make me laugh the most! thanks for the contests Fran!!! xoxo ashley
my favorite thing to do is to take salsa classes with my boyfriend. I love moving my body and especially my hips to the upbeat music and it makes me smile to be in a class with couples ranging from 16 to 70 years old.
watching arrested development makes me laugh every time. ditto the daily show and the colbert report. those guys are hilarious
my absolute favorite thing to do is hip hop dancing. I’m actually not very good and not trained, but i have so much passion for it. I really hope i can build up the courage to pursue it, because i know it would bring me even more joy. What makes me happy and laugh is my two dogs. I know everyone loves their pets, but my dogs seriously have gotten me through the worst of times. I love how they will love you unconditionally no matter what. Just the funny little things they do everyday always make me laugh. they are like my children haha
One of my favorite things to do is to take one small risk everyday that after doing it leaves me feeling expansive. It could be something as simple as making eye contact and smiling at someone on my walk. It’s just a matter of questioning what my habitual behavior would be, and then making a choice that sends the message to the Universe that I am open to people, to life, and to change.
My favourite thing to do is a tie between playing music + making love
ONE OF THE THINGS I ENJOY THE BEST..Is coming up with new novels to write…especcially taboo subjects that many authors refrain fro using…But i love it!!!..I love writing stories in general…although hopefully in the future i want to be published one day. And I love imagining myself living in Englands countryside with my organic garden…with bunch of fruits and vegetables ex.lettuce,tomatoes…next to the river. Hoping that my visulization comes true one day…And owning my own Health Store one day…and travelling across the world for new adventures
My absolute favorite thing to do is unwind and relax with my wonderful family! I have 2 wonderful boys and even more wonderful husband that support my healthy lifestyle. They have seen me through losing 88 pounds, illnesses and horrible skin. So blessed to have them in my life! Thank-you for what you have contributed to help me learn and grow!
My favourite thing to do these days has become playing music with friends (and strangers)…I love the energy that is generated by a bunch of people engaging in creating music together, jamming out to songs we all know or something we make up on the spot. It’s a really captivating energy!
Nothing in this world brings me more happiness than serving my community does. Im from Texas and people here are all about friendship and compassion for others. I get so much enjoyment out of helping our children and less fortunate members of my community through volunteerism and fundraising. But it is almost a self-serving deed because I get so much out of it myself that I almost feel selfish. It warms my heart so much to know that little old me had a hand in making just one life a little better. But other than that nothing brightens my life more than my animals, they are just so innocent, loving and forgiving. They don’t see my acne, they love me no matter what I look like and having that unconditional love in your life will make you feel pretty darn good!
One of my favorite things to do is ice skating. It keeps me away from the stress in life. What makes me happy and laugh? Doing what I really want in life and of course getting my acne away for the rest of my life!
