Health Includes Mental Health

Sometimes when we ask our friends how do they feel, and they reply "fine" we should all be aware that that is just a feeling.  It has no fact to it and could very well be false.  So I tend to ask more direct questions like; "how is your health?"  Typically, from our last doctors appointment we should know that we are well or we have a few concerns to keep an eye out for.  

However in general people say they are doing good and believe this includes their health over all; but they do not include their mental health.  Are you stressed?  Are you angry?  Are you frustrated?  Do you have abnormal conversations with yourself or imaginary friends?

Michael Jordan once said if your feet are hurting you will have a terrible time playing basketball.  I say if you have a mental health issues you will have a terrible time in your overall health.  All health issues begin in your mind.  It is then crucial to take particular care of your mentally to prevent further health conflicts.  So if asked are you healthy, answer the question honestly and include your mental health as well.  Take care for now.

How Shall We Eat?

In the Bible the disciples came to Jesus and asked Him how shall we pray?  If I lived in that time and knew that Jesus was the Messiah, and that the Messiah was indeed God I would have asked a lot more questions.  One question I would have asked would have been, "how shall we eat?"

You see, eating is something that we take for granted in the United States (at least some parts), but even if you are dirt poor and very rich, eating should be as follows:

One should only eat when they have earned the hunger.  Plenty of times we make the mistake of eating to appease our appetites.  This can be dangerous and is in many cases.  I do not know what Jesus would have answered, but I do know that it dangerous and unnatural to eat when one is not hungry.

We must start to think of our bodies as machines.  When you think about it; we build machines after how our bodies are build (cars, etc.).  Machines need rest, they need proper intake of material for operation.  If one can sum up the discipline to eat only when they are hungry and have earned the hunger, the person can lose weight without a lot of trick diets, avoiding favorite foods, and other things that make losing weight or dieting a headache.

In a few days I'll write more on this topic.  Have a great day and eat when you are hungry (distinguish between hunger and appetite).  Hunger is natural, appetite can arise when you smell a burger cooking or when a friend says they want a cheesecake for dessert.  The brain will trick you into thinking you are hungry.  That is appetite.  Wait and obey your hunger.

Love Each Other & Love God

God may seem like a mythical figure because so many people have told stories on a being that no one has seen (in our time); and since we cannot taste, touch, feel, see, nor literally hear God it is like He does not exist.  When I was in primary school, I wrote a song called love each other and love God.

That is what we are suppose to do in life.  We must first love ourselves, that teaches us to love our fellow brother who we see every day.  Then by loving our fellow brother (and sister), this will open our eyes to learning about God and who He is and how to properly serve Him.  While our health, our well-being (wealth), and our personal relationships make 95% of who we are; we must still remember to love our fellow brothers and sisters, and to love the God who created us.

I wish you well.
