I had a tie for my two highest categories being physical health and spiritual health. I think these two were the highest because I tend to focus more on these categories than anything else in terms of health. I want to be able to live a long life so I try to make sure that I do some type of physical exercise every day. Spiritual health helps me to find my center and to not let things distract me so much.
