When do you know you're healthy?
Many say its when you feel good. When you are not sick and when you have energy.
Yes and No.
Your body can be completely free of symptoms from any disease long before they manifest into an illness as severe as Cancer. That is, you could have a disease such as Cancer for years before an such symptoms such as pain will show its ugly head. As a matter of fact each of us carry cancerous cells that lay dormanet until something 'excites' them into growing out of control.
So how do you know when you're health? to put it another way, Health is a condition when the "Body -Mind -and Spirit" are in harmony with each other. Feeling good can mean I feel good physically, but I wish I had more energy. Or I feel wonderful about life but I wish my body could keep up to it. Or, I am with such peace with self, but I worry about my siblings.
It is becoming widely know even in the Medical community how important our mental wellbeing is to our 'total' health. Most in the know of such things say that up to 90% of all illnesses are caused by a mental or rather an emotional upset or tress condition. Personally I believe ALL physical illness is caused by an unbalance of emotional upset let run long enough to cause a physical manifestation.. Apart from a physical injury such as an accident where the body sustains injury, all other conditions are caused by some form of stress. The problem here is that we seldom know how much stress we are under. We simply sweep it aside and tell ourselves not to worry about it and to go on with what needs to be done. However the subconscious mind does not forget and it will try its best to warn us of an up coming situation if we only take heed to what our body is trying to tell us.
Take headaches for example. Many doctors will prescribe pills for severe cases or blame it on a certain food or combination of foods. But more often these days the Doctor will ask you of your current situation at home. That being, is it happy or is it tressing to you. Headaches can also be a symptom of an on coming disease or even something that you have put out of your mind because it was too difficult to deal with, but the body knows you haven't dealt with it and that you need to.
I put it to you that very few of us who live in these times are truly healthy. Because when a person is truly healthy in 'Body-Mind-and Spirit, the whole world looks different. The colors are brighter, the sounds are heard clearer and bring a new sense of awareness, food tastes better, you have no worries and you appreciate everything more. Its like being in Love, because you are. You're in love with yourself and everything around you. People say you have a glow about you and they find themselves almost envious and want to know what you did or what you are doing to be so happy. And although you'd like to tell them, you often can't find the correct words to convey what you are truly feeling or even doing because, it feels so natural that to describe it would sound silly or even stupid.
Do NOT despair. Everyone has the ability to become this happy person if you take the time and are willing to work at it. The work is not exercise exactly, its not meditation by itself, its not so much the foods you eat, although all of these would defiantly help, its mostly a state of mind and the willingness to be open to the possibilities and to think in a positive way.
You see, you can have the best genetic makeup a person can have, eat only the best foods known to man, meditate all day long and give all your worldly possessions away (if that's what you believe) but if you believe you are going to get sick or suffer some mental condition - you will.
The mind is a very power thing, especially the subconscious mind. You must believe you are a healthy living and productive person without worry if you are to be that person. And all it really takes is belief in yourself and a little work at it.
There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way.
I can not say it more plainly, if you have any, I repeat any emotional discomfort, and you want to be healthy and vibratious, you must deal with your emotional upset in any way you can until it is no longer a problem, and your life will blossom in front of you. I guarantee it.
You have the power within to heal all that needs healed.
Be positive
