Healthy Spirit, Soul, and Body

This season of quarantine has given my body time to rest,

my mind time to reflect, and my spirit time to reconnect.

I have realized several truths about one's health.

Your physical health prolongs your life.

Your mental health directs your life.

But your spiritual health determines your quality of life. 

 

An unhealthy spirit produces an unhealthy soul and vessel.

Healing starts with your spirit and is driven by your heart.

With every heartbeat, blood goes out to fuel your body and brain.

Blood is the life force that sustains you and keeps you alive.

Healing is influenced by the state of your soul and mind.

A mind saturated with stress and worry deters healing.

But a sound mind filled with hope can help turn the tide.

 

A healthy heart equals a healthy mind.

A healthy mind equals a healthy body.

Take care of yourself and don't neglect your health. 

Take hold of your mind and don’t let worry take over.

Look after your body and watch what you eat and do.

Look after your spirit and reconnect with your purpose. 

Only then my friend can true healing come.
