Spiritual Health Promotes Physical Health

Be still and know that I am God.” It is in the peaceful silence of meditation and prayer that you find a higher power than yourself. This power can help, guide and direct you towards the healthy goals in life you are seeking. It is important to set aside a period twice daily – morning and evening – during which time, the mind can go into meditation and prayer to build inner strength. There must be order and clear purpose to your thinking. Silently restate your new goals in life. Remember that you must displace the old, useless and damaging habits of thought with fine, bright, new healthy ideas. Every constructive thought stimulates the nervous system
with great vitality and vigor, and this sustained and powerful activity stimulates the entire body. Through meditation and prayer you are building a strong mind in a healthy strong body. You are building powerful Nerve Force because you are opening that inexhaustible reservoir of energy and creative intelligence which lies within each human. Meditation and prayer will help establish equilibrium in mind, body and soul. It infuses you with new energy and expanded awareness, while it instills you with an inner calm and peace. You gain strength to do and to
endure – to take the strains and pressures of life in stride. You will be better able to face whatever problems that may arise with sufficient Nerve Force to solve them.
