Healthy Spirit, Healthy Body
I am Oglala Lakota and during tribal ceremonies I’ll often hear about healing one’s spirit.
In my experience, when one take’s a hard look at themselves and begins to “train” their spirit with the dedication and honesty that they employ in their fitness and nutrition lives, miracles happen.
What am I talking about? For some, it might mean forgiveness of a loved one who has really hurt them. For others, it can mean re-experiencing all the pain they’ve grown up with and loving their way back from it. For some, it can mean sharing with another the true pain involved in what they’re dealing with now. For some, it may mean battling depression or an addiction.
All of these things will have huge effects on one’s health, weight, and fitness. I believe, however, that good health and fitness and the proper weight can help with spiritual healing. Your mind and body are mirror reflections of each other. Improving one can help the other.
In my nutrition course one of the sessions focuses on the spirit and making sure the feeding of our spirit is aligned with the good things we are doing physically, as well. I invite you to join our group and share your story as these stories seem to help other’s in their journey too.
Thanks.
Von
