Hi Everyone!
One of the things that most amazed me as I moved from studying Chinese medicine, to actually working with patients in a clinic setting was how essential emotional and spiritual heath is to maintaining physical health. Our lives are so busy now a days running from here to there, with so many things vying for our time.
We really need quiet.
Our bodies, minds and spirits need that time to recharge. It's so easy to get burned out, or worse!
Meditation or some type mind quieting activity is an essential part of health maintenance, it will keep you happy and healthy, and there's nothing better than that. It has even been shown to create changes in the brain to help you to become less affected by stress and more compassionate! (check out this article...http://www.yogajournal.com/health/2601)

Peace, to one and all on this lovely day!
