A healthy mind attracts blessings
How important it is to have a balanced life in mental,
physical, emotional and spiritual health to achieve
success and meet our personal and professional goals.
We live in a very fast-paced dynamic, with few hours to
get to meetings and events.
Enjoying quality time with our loved ones is increasingly
limited, because we always focus on fulfilling the different
commitments of everyday life.
We rarely take time to disconnect and restart, not knowing
how necessary it is to do it for our physical, mental and
emotional health.
As well expressed by the Buddhist philosophy of life, those
who recognize the importance of caring for the body with
respect and gratitude, starting from the principle that
we are energy, understand that we are all charged and
emanate many impulses during the day, therefore, more
than a duty, it is an obligation to consider that the body is
our temple.
We need to rest the necessary hours, exercise frequently
and recharge ourselves with good and pleasant
moments.
A good strategy is to connect with nature, laugh from
the soul, cry to relieve sadness, meditate and everything
that contributes to keep the being in good balance,
will generate fruitful results, because there is a close
relationship between the body and the spirit, and each
one influences the other.
According to the Catholic religion, the largest and most
widely followed religion in the world, you are like the
temple, different from all other people, but also a house
for the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit.
The apostle Paul said, “Do you not know that you are the
temple of God and that the God Spirit dwells in you? The
Temple of God, which you are, is holy,” (1 Corinthians 3:16–
17).
Your body is a temple for your spirit. Just as you treat
temples with respect, you should treat your body. You can
do this by obeying the word of wisdom, dressing modestly,
and keeping your body clean.
Likewise, you should keep your heart and mind clean by
reading, listening to and watching only things that are
pleasing to Heavenly Father.
Having a healthy routine of eating, exercising and
meditating from an early age allows us to achieve the
best quality of life. This is where longevity comes from.
Every positive thought is a seed that we plant in our
mental garden; let’s take care of it with love and attention
