Have you ever thought about what it is that makes
you YOU?
Some people think of themselves as just their bodies or the way they
look.
Others think of themselves as just their personalities, or their minds.
But actually, we consist of three parts - our bodies, our minds/feelings AND
our spirits.
This is what the word “holistic” refers to. It means living in
such a way that there is a balance between these three parts of you.
So leading
a holistic lifestyle, is living and being in a way that makes you feel safe and free to grow. It allows you to love yourself and others and be the happiest and
best you can possibly be!
LOVE YOUR MIND
Your mind is very powerful. It controls both your
body and your emotions, your physical well-being, your happiness and your
health. This is why it is so important to learn how to control your thoughts.
You need to make sure that you think happy, positive thoughts and don't get
stuck in negative thoughts about yourself and others. Train your mind to be optimistic,
forgiving, peaceful, and have a sense of humour. This will not only keep you
chilled and cheerful, but will also help you to stay healthy, successful and
have good relationships with others!
LOVE YOUR BODY
Your body reflects what is going on in your mind.
If you are stuck in thinking negative thoughts, this will reflect in your body.
If you are unhappy and negative about life, you might find yourself getting
sick often, experiencing weight or skin problems. You might be tired all the
time or find it hard to stick to an exercise routine. But here's the good news!
It is totally possible to train and reprogram your mind to be more positive
about yourself and others. Once your subconscious mind has “registered” this
new, positive outlook on life, you will not only feel a lot better emotionally, you will also start to see an improvement in your physical body!
LOVE YOUR SPIRIT
Your spirit is that part of you that makes you
totally unique from anyone else. It is the part of you that is eternal, and is
filled with endless love, compassion, forgiveness and immense strength. When
your spirit is in balance with your body and mind, you will be able to live a
life free of fear and uncertainty, a life filled with joy and abundance. When
our spirits are in balance with our bodies and minds, we find it easy to
forgive and connect with others. A balanced spirit also ensures positive,
strong and lasting relationships with our selves, our friends, our families and
our partners.
LOVE YOUR INNER ARTIST
There's An Artist Inside You That Wants To Get Out
A lot of people tell themselves “I'm not an artist”. Or maybe they have been told by someone that they are not. But listen up. EVERYONE IS AN ARTIST. That's right! A human being's life force flows in the direction of creativity. It is your true nature whether you embrace it or not. It doesn't matter what you were told before. It doesn't matter what you create, and it doesn't matter how you feel about the things you create. The only thing that matters, is THAT you create!
Why You Must Create, Create,
Create
When your creativity is held inside, it has
nowhere to go and it builds up in your body. It can make you feel very
frustrated, depressed or stressed out. It can even make you feel physically
sick. When your creativity is expressed, your creative energy is released and
this creates a whole new you!
Making stuff or expressing your creativity through
singing, writing, or ANYTHING, really, is not only fun, it is relaxing and
healing, and will make you feel really good about yourself. Just remember not
to judge anything you create. Who's to say what is “good” or “bad” anyway? With creativity, the end result is not what
matters – what matters is the ACT of creation!
NATURE LOVES YOU
Nature is awesome! Sometimes we get so caught up
in our lives in our cities and towns, we forget that Nature is there for us all
the time – and it's totally free!
Nature is a place where we can just chill out, rest our minds, recharge our batteries and feel part of this wonderful world we live in. Remember how great it feels to walk on a beach, swim in a dam or just feel a soft breeze, or some sunlight on your face? Nature is great healer, and a place to connect with our inner selves.
Even just spending an afternoon in a park, watching the squirrels and pigeons, sitting on the grass in the shade of a tree will give you a great sense of peace and calm. How fun is it to feed ducks, watch birds build a nest or to hold a baby animal? Nature is also a great teacher, and watching animals and their behaviour can teach us to see life from a different angle, and teach us a lot about ourselves!
