Mental and Physical Wellness

shannon lokker asked:


The mind—body—spirit debate has developed into a well known researched fact over the past decade. While there has always been some amount of contribution given to the mindset of any patient, only recently has the concept of caring for the “entire self” become a common practice in today’s modern medicine and prevention programs. Mind—body—spirit wellness has reached new levels of inclusive factors for today’s health conscious individuals. Holistic health has finally reached acceptance in many offices of doctors and practitioners of medicine.

The power of caring for one’s entire body is really quite impressively powerful. Individuals who have opted for total mind—body—spirit wellness have been able to determine great levels of health and energy within their own framework by allowing their entire being into account. Studies on the power of the mind have shown some shocking results, the effects have been proven to be of course, mind—blowing.

Holistic health is essential in providing high quality total care for your self, your family, and your overall well being. Studies have proven that holistic health practices have dramatically reduced the number and frequency of illnesses related to common every day exposure. School children living in mind—body—spirit wellness focused homes miss less than half of the school days due to illness than that of their classmates still living in traditional Western medicine focused homes.

Accounts of real world individuals being able to provide testimony to the effects of holistic health practices on their daily lives are continuously increasing. Many individuals offer that the mind—body—spirit wellness approach to life has given them not only their physical health back, but their emotional health as well. For those who place more emphasis on the testimony of physicians and health care practitioners, there are an increasing number of offices that practice mind—body—spirit wellness as part of their routine care.

Holistic health and the mind—body—spirit wellness approach to life has also opened up a while new industry for the entrepreneurial spirit. Many manufacturers feel that it has been nothing short of a blessing to fully endorse their product without doubting the word of their advertisers. There is a vast and endless ocean of new and improved products which adhere to holistic health practices and principles which have emerged onto the market as of late, and for the most part, these products actually do what they say they are going to do. Of course, we wouldn’t be an enterprising society if a few unscrupulous manufacturers didn’t sneak in there for their piece of this multi billion dollar industry. Our culture responded appropriately by deeming specific authorities on the topic to be the final word in quality and effectiveness.

By developing institutes that focus completely on mind—body—spirit wellness and awareness, there has been a successful and remarkable overhaul in the basic integrity of holistic health materials and products. While of course there are still some scam factories out there, the vast majority of holistic health companies want to be part of this ever growing, popular, and health enhancing trend that is changing the lives and souls of everyone involved.

Holistic health products that are able to make claims of providing “miracle” results are generally not considered to be authentic products endorsed or even recognized by any authority of holistic health practices. Rather, while there have been case reports regarding “miraculous results” on an individual basis, the mind—body—spirit wellness community does not promote grand promises but instruction, focus, and of course, directives that help individuals enhance their mind—body—spirit connection. Very few products on the holistic health market today receive genuine endorsements or “approval” from these authorities. Those that do have not only been proven to deliver what they promise, but also meet a strict standard of what constitutes and actual holistic health product.

As the mind—body—spirit wellness and awareness movement grows and matures over the next few years, there is bound to be growth in numerous areas of product development. What has reached the market now can be considered to be some remarkable enhancements in the holistic health practice. In fact, there have been a few products which not only earn the endorsement of leading authorities, but actually are not expected to be able to be produced better than they are right now. This is a pretty bold statement considering that technology and education will never be static yet those few products out there that are being praised and sung by the leading authorities have literally taken the holistic health product market by storm.

Our society will most likely continue the never ending search for powerful new health remedies and holistic health products which enhance the mind—body—spirit wellness experience with great enthusiasm and vigor over the next ten years. After all, what is considered a relatively new phenomenon in this country has been considered to be tradition in other societies for centuries. There is a wealth of knowledge waiting for us to uncover as time goes by.

The mind—body—spirit wellness movement and the holistic health practices that are now finally being viewed as medical advancements will continue to offer our society a new way of looking at health, not to mention a vast assortment of new health treatments. This can only be considered to be good news for those who suffer from chronic conditions, serious health problems and illnesses, or the healthy who wish to remain that way.

David Gau-Ghan asked:


Regardless of personal viewpoint about spirituality, many have wondered what would have happened if Saddam Hussein hadn’t been stopped when he first invaded Kuwait back in the early nineties? Well, this story explores that scenario to its surprising conclusion and then reinvents the scene time and again in a sequence similar to ‘Groundhog Day’ but in a self help mind, body, spirit theme. The result is a story that has led many readers to question their concept of so-called reality!

I initially believed I was writing a fictional story about angel ET benefactors influencing our world. But when I completed the first book, The Blue Star Millennium, found on http://www.1-inspirational-quote-book.com , many readers were convinced that the depicted world events had actually happened, even though recorded history shows a different outcome. That’s when the concept of an alternative reality suddenly gelled into the possibility that world events could change depending on the will of the masses.

As far as I was concerned, I was simply writing an inspirational mind, body, spirit story about angel extraterrestrial intervention, but I didn’t know where the story was going until it unfolded before me … and I have to admit, I was surprised at some of the content.

The story largely centered on the Gulf War and the changing of events under the influence of a benevolent, angelic race of Beings in the form of extraterrestrial benefactors. The central character in these books is an angel who integrates with human society under the watchful influence of his mentor, the White Star.

Many who have read these esoteric books have queried whether the White Star is real … and if so, did he help change world events in keeping with the will of the masses - the ones currently inhabiting our world … You and me? From that angle, did he also influence my writing in a more spiritual slant?

To be honest, I don’t know!

If he did, I am grateful that he shared this metaphysical knowledge, but a little confused why he would choose me. I’m just an ordinary guy who grew up on the rougher side of town with few privileges, and new age spirituality was not part of my upbringing. I’ve had my share of knocks that life tends to deal out to all those who walk this earth. However, I’ve also had my share of unusual (for want of a better term) experiences … but I’m getting off the track here.

If we take this concept of ET extraterrestrial angels to its logical conclusion, are we not all such Beings? After-all, we are simply visiting this planet for a short while to experience our individual lessons and then we depart - so how can we say that we are of this planet? We simply inhabit a body here temporarily so that we can function in this world.

So, whether these metaphysics philosophy books are influenced by extraterrestrial angels, or resulted from my own tapping into the higher consciousness that is the source of us all … what is the difference? The result is equally fascinating and the concepts that these self improvement stories present will challenge your view of life as you know it.

Enhancing your mind body spirit regularly results in every system of the mind soul dynamics functioning better. It strengthens the immune system and increases energy throughout the body which in turn gives us more fuel to be successful at whatever it is we are doing.enhancing your mind body and spirit image 2 Enhancing your mind body spirit, combined with exercise to get fit and lose weight and eating well, is good self-care. It provides the fuel we need for the focus and action it takes to transform dreams into results.

To start Enhancing your Mind Body and Spirit, the first thing is getting you into a mindset to change from a negative attitude to a positive one. This may come as a surprise but your attitude is more important than your aptitude in determining your success in life and is overall Enhancing Mind Body and Spirit. You can learn to have this kind of outlook on life, but it needs to be purposefully installed into your daily living routine. You probably know it takes about 3 weeks to break a habit by retraining it with a new one. If you are bothered with persistent negative thoughts toward life, you can replace this mindset with a new positive attitude habit.

Self-image - Most of us have a basic thought about ourselves and our value. Ideally, this should be positive yet realistic. A healthy self-image might be reflected by the thought, “I have many strengths that are clear to me and to others. I do have some weaknesses and I can work on improving them.”

Problem-solving ability - Breast cancer may be the biggest problem you have ever faced, but we constantly deal with the many challenges of life. Feeling empowered, rising to meet those challenges, and having strategies to solve problems can greatly reduce our stress.

morning stretch

By gently stretching limbs and body (picture a dog or cat getting up after a nap), all the while meditating / affirming / praying , you will send all kinds of positive messages back and forth from your brain and nervous system to your muscles. And it feels good, too!

Remember: your brain is in command of your physical body; your emotions control your spiritual body; your physical body can enhance or suppress your connection to Source / God (spiritual experience).

Chronic Stress is a different story. Unfortunately, most of us walk around in a state of chronic stress. Our muscles are tight, nerves on “edge” and feel ready to snap. Sound familiar? In a state of Chronic Stress, your brain is constantly firing, giving your body the message to work harder. Being a good body, it tries and tries. Your blood pressure goes up, the heart beats faster, muscles tire, and patience wears thin.

Feng Shui is a great way to get the ball rolling. Feng Shui is part science and part art and creates an environment of balance and prosperity. Feng Shui addresses the layout of space in a way the permits the most optimum flow of energy within ones environment. The Chinese believe that natural energy can be utilized to its fullest by the proper arrangement of things at home and by the correct establishment of houses and buildings. People in all cultures from around the world have experienced the remarkable capacity of how to create a more balanced and positive environment through Feng Shui.

I love copper, and I know it has holistic values, but I’m not sure what kind exactly. I also heard that Native Americans feel some kind of spiritual connection with it as well…can anyone elaborate?

Sleek asked:


Fasting is something I practiced regularly for the past few years before becoming pregnant last year. I’ve also studied extensively and may eventually write and publish my experiences fasting. Spiritual breakthroughs accompanying fasting changed my life but weren’t the only benefit. Since I now have a 3 month old baby daughter it will be possibly a couple of years before I can fast. I could health-wise REALLY use some sort of cleanse or detox in addition to the spiritual aspect of a fast, but since I’m nursing I am only wishing and wondering. Please share your answers and opinions on fasting while breastfeeding if you have done it or know someone who’s done it.

FYI, my baby is supplemented with about 6 oz. formula daily and is at the top/above her weight level for her age. She was almost 11 lbs. at birth.

BTW, the only info. I can find online relates to penance and that’s not really the same thing I do when fasting.

Thx!

They say everything including feelings felt by the mother can affect the baby, so if the mother works out regularily, would that cause the newborn child to be born at a higher level of health than a baby born of a mother that relaxed through pregnancy.
