The older I get the more I try to look at life in a holistic sense. Being chronically ill and disabled has forced me to look at health as the intersection of genetics, lifestyle, trauma history, and spirituality. Without the balance of mental and physical health, I don\u2019t operate well. I can\u2019t trade one for the other, which so often feels like a requirement to survive in this world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ve learned that my body is an ecosystem, and it is constantly at play with the other wonderous and terrifying self-contained ecosystems of everyone I know. Nothing happens in a vacuum. In order to tackle the feelings that leave us feeling stuck, we have to look at our minds, our bodies, and our spirits to make sure that they are aligned. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this week\u2019s Daily Focus, let\u2019s take the time to examine how these different elements of self can come together to help foster and facilitate growth and healing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEach time you are honest and conduct yourself with honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success. Each time you lie, even with a little white lie, there are strong forces pushing you toward failure.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –<\/em>Joseph Sugarman<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the most foundational elements for being happy and healthy is honesty, with yourself and with others. There\u2019s a reason that in addiction treatment, the first step is always admitting there a problem. The philosophy transfers. Be honest about your needs, and what you can realistically tackle. Set goals for yourself that you know are attainable and lean on others when the time comes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLife doesn\u2019t make any sense without interdependence. We need each other, and the sooner we learn that, the better for us all.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –<\/em>Erik Erikson<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Communication, honesty, and problem-solving are essential parts of holistic healing. Sometimes, that means getting an outside opinion. If you\u2019re surrounded by people who are always in your corner, and who stand by every choice you make without question, maybe it\u2019s time to branch out. It could mean talking to a professional, or even to a stranger, but make sure you\u2019re seeing things from more than just one side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOne cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –<\/em>Virginia Woolf<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Make sure you eat! Eat well, eat food that fuels you, and makes you feel energized. Eat food that fuels your soul as well, be it chocolate or butter. Make sure that you\u2019re taking time to appreciate all five of your senses and rewarding yourself for getting through another day with a little treat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cConsciousness is only possible through change; change is only possible through movement.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –<\/em>Aldous Huxley<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Don\u2019t stand still. Make sure that you\u2019re moving, even if it isn\u2019t steady. Movement is physically important for our bodies, but it\u2019s also vital for our brains, our imaginations, and our ambitions. I want you to try and think of movement as something beyond the physical. As someone who is disabled, it\u2019s taken me a long time to think of movement as something bigger than just physical. But there is movement in art, in music, in light\u2014 we just have to look for it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMy mother told me to follow my dreams, so I took a nap.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –<\/em>Unknown<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Just like you need to make sure you\u2019re getting enough food and movement, make sure you\u2019re getting a good night\u2019s sleep. Listen to your body when it tells you what it needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTo understand the immeasurable, the mind must be extraordinarily quiet, still.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –<\/em>Jiddu Krishnamurti<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As important as it is to push through, communicate, and foster growth, it is also important to take time to sit in peace. Quiet moments go a long way. Make sure you take some time today to sit in silence. If you have a pet, a child, or a significant other, try spending a few minutes making quiet eye contact and see how it affects your mood. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cJournaling is like whispering to one\u2019s self and listening at the same time.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –<\/em>Bram Stoker<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Journaling is another way that you can connect and reflect. It\u2019s the best way to keep information fresh and to be able to reflect on how far we\u2019ve come. If you feel overwhelmed with emotions\u2014or the opposite, unable to connect to them, try writing things down and revisiting them later. <\/p>\n\n\n You have a life purpose. Wondering what you\u2019re meant to do? You won\u2019t know until you get a life path reading<\/a> with one of our talented life path psychics<\/a>. A life path psychic<\/a> can help you find what you love so you can love what you do. <\/p>\n About California Psychics<\/strong> Understanding Your Daily Focus The older I get the more I try to look at life in a holistic sense.
