A Personal Mission Statement... Arghh
Write it down, are you kidding? No one could ever get me to
commit like that. A Mission statement is for business or so I
thought...
Can you imagine taking a boat, loading it up with supplies and
stripping out the compass and all the...
Is your soulmate an idiot?
Lately, I think people are investing too much energy in the idea that they "must find their soulmate." Where do we get this idea that we are somehow not complete unless we are connected to another person? What are you? An electrical outlet waiting...
So am I: Projecting Our Qualities
There is this woman at my son's school with whom I have a very
bad human connection indeed. I think she is unapproachable,
indifferent, and unfriendly. In fact, though I like a few
people, there are more people in that school whom I...
The Kabbalah of Rosh Hashana: From Tears to Transformation
“How odd of G-d to choose the Jews - but not so odd; the Jews chose G-d.” Ogden Nash
Choosing G-d
At sunset on the eve of Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, G-d** will remove some of his light from the world. He will still remain present in...
To Love Forever
Some time ago we were leading a college seminar for sexually sophisticated, exuberant and articulate young couples from a local church when James, one of the husbands, said: Nancy and I have long since learned how to insert Tab A into Slot B, so we...

Wellness of the Mind
Our spiritual input is a determining factor when establishing
our wellness level. We all need the benefit of spiritual
reflection, as a way of cleansing ourselves of the toxins of our
daily life. Spirituality is a way of assuring ourselves of a
renewing, and rebirth of ourselves as caring humans. Wellness
encompasses our state of being, mind, and health. It is a
condition of the whole. Wellness is a condition of the mind,
body, and soul.
Meditation is preventive maintenance for the mind. Meditation
gives us the opportunity to reflect on our inner self. To listen
to that small inner voice that is supposed to help guide and
direct our mental processes, but in modern day existence, is
often drowned out due to excessive noise pollution.
Our spirituality and meditation practices are the tools we have
available to keep our mind as well as we keep our bodies. The
mind is a complicated and versatile machine, but it can become
overwhelmed and unable to function correctly, if we don't take
the time to keep it well and cared for.
Our mind has varying levels of operation, known as brainwaves.
As we pass through the different stages of our day, we enter
various stages of brain wave activity. The brain uses this tool
as one way to allow us time to rest our busy mind, and cope with
all the pieces of information we've received, a way to kind of
"mind file" for the day. When we don't give adequate time for
these processes, or we simply don't get enough rest, our mind
cannot maintain its state of wellness, just like our
bodies
aren't capable of wellness if there is no chance to rest and
replenish.
Modern alternative medicine and holistic healers believe in the
power of the energy that flows through our bodies; this energy
radiates from our mind as well. It is believed to be the chief
from of transportation for our body nervous system to carry out
communication. Breathing techniques, music, aromas, and candle
therapy are all ways we utilize the opportunities to reflect on
our day, allow our mind to rest and replenish itself for further
use.
We must remember over the course of our daily routine, to make
time to maintain mental wellness, as we strive to maintain
physical wellness. The nice thing about the whole process is
that, as we go about accomplishing these tasks, quite often the
opportunities for preservation and care are interchangeable. We
can help to quite our mind as we take our twenty minute walk. Or
we have the opportunity to build muscle strength as we meditate.
Often just the opportunity to listen to music will allow our
mind the chance it needs to relax and regroup. It's not always
the most formal of occasions that we find an available chance to
reflect and listen to that inner voice. It can be in the middle
of the day, with the wind blowing through your hair, and the
radio turned up really loud!
