Body, Mind and Spirit

Happy Memorial Day weekend! Vacations and holidays are important to our mental, emotional and physical health. It shouldn't be necessary to include all three of those adjectives since they can't really be separated. I do it just to remind you that anything which reduces stress and benefits us emotionally has related effects on our physical bodies. No exceptions. Something affects our health or it doesn't. We are healthy or we aren't. Let's get out of the habit of supporting the illusion of a "mind, body and spirit" that are somehow separate and different. "Wholistic" health begins with our language and our thoughts. If training your language and thoughts is not part of your workout routine, time to upgrade to a little cross training. When to begin? No time like the present. Have a great weekend! (and get some sun!)
