Spiritual Health is Essential For a Healthy Life

Most people are so focused on caring for their physical body; they forget to care about their emotional and spiritual body. They don’t see themselves as spirits having a human experience. Even if you don’t agree that you are a spirit having a human experience, I am certain you do agree on having some spiritual nature or essence.

Our lives are comprehensive and include mind, body and spirit. When you fulfill your spiritual health you have a more joy-filled life and feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel more connected to others and to yourself.

Spiritual health is a belief in a spirit or power that is greater than you and that has the wisdom upon which you can rely. It is recognition of a relationship with something outside of you. Spiritual health includes having a healing attitude that you bring to problems in your life experience as well as self-love and self-acceptance. Here are the keys to spiritual health to create YOUR healthy life:

Letting go:

Not holding guilt or control and forgiving yourself and others. Forgiving and forgetting and not holding hate or bad feelings. Letting go of the burden of anger to increase your own well-being.

Gratitude:

Being thankful for your life and all the blessings you receive, even the smallest ones. Instead of living from negative and self-defeating thoughts shifting to appreciation and positive aspects of people and things. When you are grateful you allow in more health and wellness in your entire life!

Feeeeeeeeeeeling Peaceful:

Choosing to feeeeeeeeeeeeeel tranquility and peace means you have faith and believe in the power and presence of some higher being or spirit. This lets you feeeeeeeeeeeeeel peaceful even during life’s chaos of troubles, sorrows and pains. You know that there is always hope and that things are going according to a higher plan. It is choosing to “let go and let God.”

Loving:

Spiritual health includes showing love and concern and generosity to others and reaching out to others. Loving relationships with others increase your spiritual well being.

My wish for you is to know that the higher power, whatever that is to you, loves you and created you as a beautiful gem, even with your flaws. Love yourself, love others and be gentle and kind and loving and know that there is a love for you that is always there and that comes from a higher power. Let this spiritual sense into your heart and you will create more peace and joy and live a juicy, fuller and healthier life.
