In  our world of duality, there is nothing like feeling bad to make you appreciate  feeling good!<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">Good physical health allows and  enhances good emotional health and supports spiritual practices. Have you ever  noticed how difficult it is to move into that quiet meditational space when you  have a pounding headache? <\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">We are composed of four bodies \u2013  spiritual, mental, emotional and physical<\/span>. Spiritual teachings say that what you  do to one of these bodies affects the other bodies. For instance, frequent  meditation brings harmony to your other bodies &#8211; to your emotional, mental and  physical bodies as well as your spiritual body. <\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">When you change your spiritual  body it changes your physical, emotional and mental bodies. When you change your  physical body it changes your emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies. In fact,  you cannot change one without changing the others, too. <\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">While we tend to think of this in  terms of healing, wholeness and well being, the flip side is also true. When we  unconsciously alter our physical body in a detrimental way (e.g. poor food  choices, not enough exercise, too much or too little sunshine, the list goes  on\u2026) we negatively impact the emotional, mental and spiritual bodies also. <\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">We may not see this side as  quickly or as easily; however, now that you know this, you can be aware and  observe. Have you ever known someone with chronic pain or chronic physical  illness and seen the drain of energy this has on their emotional body? Or, have  you noticed how difficult it is to think clearly when you are suddenly  frightened or afraid?<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">Change one body and you change  the others. <\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">Knowing this tiny bit of wisdom  helps us realize the importance of making wise choices for all four of our  bodies: <\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">* Choose a healthy diet and  exercise plan for the physical body.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">* Choose peace for the emotional  body. <\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">* Choose clarity and positive  thoughts for the mental body. <\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">* Choose meditation and acts of  loving kindness for the spiritual body.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">To close with a quote from my  favorite Christmas card,\u201c\u2026Peace and truth be in my days\u201d  (2 Kings 20:19 )\u2026 and in yours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">Love to you&#8211;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\">Lynnea<\/p>\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-186\" data-postid=\"186\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-186 themify_builder themify_builder_front\">\n\t<\/div>\n<!-- \/themify_builder_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Happy New Year and A Tiny Bit of Wisdom by Dreama Vance Co-founder of InfiniteBeing.com Everyone wants to feel good.
