I believe that health and life should be approached holistically, including all aspects of the self – the body, mind, spirit and emotions. The extent of our well-being reflects, how much we honor, take care of and balance the various aspects of who we are. Each of these parts of ourselves influences and nourishes the other and contributes to the richness of our life experience. We experience the world and interact with it through our body. Body can also be viewed as a temple of the soul. So, keep it pure and clean and take good care of it by providing healthy food, sufficient exercise and rest. Our minds can influence our emotions and shape our perception of the reality (read about CBT).

It is said that there is just one reality, but endless ways of seeing it. Keeping your mind clear and still helps to perceive the life with clarity. Practices like meditation and mindfulness help to reduce stress, improve mental and physical health, find inner peace and balance, increase our awareness and support our spiritual growth. Spirit is often seen as our true essence beyond material existence, a spark of life that animates our physical being. Yoga (link) is one of  the practices that nurtures and cultivates our spirit.
