SPIRITUAL & EMOTIONAL HEALTHSPIRITUAL & EMOTIONAL HEALTH

The Third Essential for Life Suess! S"iritual &

E#otional Health$ Part One % S"iritual Healthello, 1im 2ohn here. %s we loo# at the to$ic of health this month, the first order ofbusiness is to ma#e sure our view of the to$ic of health is broad enouh. You see, if I

were to as# you, )%re you healthy7*, you miht thin# sim$ly of your $hysical health.

You'd do a brief overview of how your body is and answer me based on that. If you feelwell, then you $robably view yourself as healthy. 8ut this is only one as$ect of health or

of bein a healthy $erson. I would li#e to challene you to consider dee$er than that. Let

me e9$lain.

%s human beins, we $ossess one of the most com$le9 desins the world has ever seen.

We are not merely a body. :here is so much more to our ma#e"u$. In fact, I believe thereare three ma(or as$ects to each $erson, and they are all intricately connected to one

another. :he three areas consist of our 8ody ;the $hysical natures

beliefs will affect their emotions. If in a neative situation, they may e9$erience an9ietyor fear. :hat in turn could $otentially cause $hysical ailments such as stomach $roblems,

headaches or fatiue for e9am$le. :his is (ust one sim$le way of loo#in at how the three

areas of our ma#e"u$ affect one another.

:his means rather than sim$ly viewin ourselves as $hysical bodies that need to be

maintained and $hysically healthy, it would serve us well to develo$ a much moreholistic and well"rounded view of what it means to be healthy. We need to loo# at the

to$ic from a much more in"de$th view. %nd as we develo$ these areas we will be much

more able to achieve the health we desire in every area of our lives.

% healthy s$iritual life will brin a unique strenth to the rest of your life. %s I have said

before, the s$iritual life is the core of our e9istence. It is the foundation, the $art of us

from which everythin else emanates and finds its strenth and $ur$ose. It centers us andives us the #ind of $ers$ective we all need to live and lead successful lives.

With these thins in mind, here are some sim$le ways you can bein to develo$ a dee$er,richer, and healthier s$iritual life@

1. Make it a pursuit, as you would make any other area of your life a pursuit. 1ust asyou have dreams and oals for your relationshi$s, your career, your $hysical wellness or

any area of life you are ho$in to e9$erience rowth. Set your sihts on a stron s$iritual

life and $ursue it with vior+

2. Set aside time to be alone and to work on your spiritual life. %nythin worth

$ursuin must have time devoted to it. In your $ursuit of s$iritual health, be sure to ive

yourself the necessary time to cultivate that inner life. 1ust as you set aside time for other

im$ortant areas of your life, be sure to do the same for your s$iritual $ursuits. Put it inyour date boo#. Ma#e sure you ive it the time that it deserves.

3. Read good materials about the spiritual life.%s

you #now, I am a reader and encourae everyone to

be such. I am $assionate about it+ :here are so many

reat boo#s that will enable you to row s$iritually.My $ersonal recommendation on where to bein is

the 8ible. If you listen to me for even a short time

you will see that I reularly quote from the wisdom Ihave learned from the 8ible over my lifetime. :here

are many boo#stores that deal in boo#s s$ecifically

written to hel$ you row in this area. :a#e advantaeof them and read ood s$iritual boo#s durin your

time alone $ursuin s$iritual health.

. Some people en!oy listening to musi" that is designed to deepen their spiritual life.

Music has the $ower to move the s$irit in ways that most thins do not. I stronly

encourae you to s$end some time reularly listenin to music that will strenthen your

s$irit. Many of the classics fit this and there are many ood artists today who hel$ usfocus on the inner s$iritual life throuh e9cellent music.

#. $n%ol%e yourself in a "ommunity of faith.I

believe that our s$iritual lives are best lived in theconte9t of other $eo$le ;and not (ust our s$iritual

lives

can o awry, but I am convinced that more ood than ill comes when we $ursue our

s$iritual life with others.

/o these thins on a reular basis. :he #ey here is to be consistent in your $ursuit of

s$iritual health. :a#e time in a disci$lined manner. %nd as you invest in your s$iritual

life, over time you will see your inner core and foundations strenthenin in ways youcould never imaine, and that in turn will ive you the basis for the #ind of whole life

8ut first, some $ersonal thouhts on the im$ortance and $ower of a stron and healthy

s$iritual life.

ntil the ae of A? I was raised in a home that had absolutely no em$hasis on the s$iritual

life. =one. 8ecause of some circumstances that ha$$ened while I was rowin u$, Ididn't have the best head start in life. My father died when I was four, and I became

rebellious and was quite a handful for my mother. In the fourth rade, I was sent away to

live with relatives. My mother was ho$in that I could et some hel$ turnin thins

around. I didn't.

8y ae A3 I was drin#in. 8y thirteen I was involved with drus B every day. For the ne9t

few years my life drifted and went nowhere.

:hen, when I was AH I met someone who bean to hel$ me $ursue my s$iritual life. %t A?

I made a ma(or commitment to allow -od into my life and $ursue s$iritual health for therest of my life.

What ha$$ened ne9t sur$rised me. 1ust as 1im says, it became the foundation for everyother area of my life. I immediately quit drin#in and doin drus. My relationshi$s

became sinificantly better. My rades, which dro$$ed as low as A.5 durin the de$ths of

my use of drus, bean to soar. In fact, for the ne9t A4 semesters ;throuh collee
