Meditation- Feel the Change

Health Officials are doubling down on the message of healthy lifestyles for healthy lives, well healthy lifestyles to build immunity to the coronavirus. This is their immediate hope. Start doing these things now to be strong enough for the body’s war on the virus. So they speak about balanced healthy diets including the recommended daily allowances of fruits and vegetables, drinking water throughout the day, regular exercise, stop smoking and using alcohol, adequate sleep, and managing stress to keep its level to a minimum.

For the uninitiated into self-care, this seems like a tall order.

They are asking many to do an entire 360 in 30 days or less, the time that experts say is needed to break a habit or adopt a new one. They are asking for miracles some feel.
Everything begins with a single step. I recommend stepping into a meditative practice and I promise that everything else will begin to fall into place.

There is no miracle cure, all of our problems will not be solved through meditation but it will do more good than many of the other activities we engage in on the daily.

Calmness reduces stress.

Tick one off the to-do list.

We start to connect with our bodies on an emotional and mental level and we begin to listen to it. We will hear it softly asking for the things it needs to be healthy and strong. Over time we are unable to ignore the entreaties. The next step is that things start to fall away by themselves: the need to drink and smoke excessively along with our craving for foods that are unhealthy. The body begins to balance itself, something that it was capable of doing all along.

We listen to our bodies so we rest when it asks and we exercise when it asks.
We begin to marvel at the utter genius that went into our creation.

We feel the change.

We are the change.

Meditation changes.
