My life started changing naturally. Never in a million years would I have thought to give up eating meat let alone give up my relaxers and going au naturel. Over time these things changed and I changed. Things I used to love, I no longer had love for. Things I that used to set my teeth on edge... no longer had me at that cliff.
When I do workshops, I often get women who say they want to be my size, shaped like me or have glowing skin like mine. Then I tell them the things that I do and don't do and they tend to shy away. Some people have said "Oh but it costs too much to live healthy." Believe me, it costs MORE if you don't live healthy. Aren't you worth the cost? I've seen women spend a paycheck on an outfit and or shoes but would not spend the same amount on a healing session that could end the negative patterns that caused the dis-ease and illness. Once a young man in his early twenties contacted me regarding a rather bad case of acne that he had on his face. I advised him through a consultation of what he should do and he said "I am not interested in doing that now. I will wait until I am old." If he waits until he is old, whenever "OLD" is, he may have irrevisible damage to the skin. Another young man, in his late twenties, athletic and in fairly good shape, said he wanted to be healthy like me. He asked me how could he be healthy like me. I told him that I did not drink, smoke or eat meat and before I could finish my statement he said "oh I don't want to be THAT healthy." LOL
Living a holistic life style is not JUST about eating healthy. Feeding and nurturing the mind and spirit is also a part of it. Many peole think because they are working out and they look good on outside, that is all they have to do. Women spend billions on facial creams yearly to get rid of wrinkles, to soften their skin or to look younger. Beauty comes from within literally. What you do on the outside does greatly affect what happens on the inside and THEN manifest itself by showing up on the outside. Funny how that works.
Through feeding the mind, you deprogram yourself from all of the negative limited beliefs that cause dis-ease and illness, that you have learned from yourself and other people. There are many ways to feed the mind. One is by challenging the mind. Read something you don't normally read. Learn a hobby that you have never done before. By nurturing the spirit, you are able to connect it all and find balance. You can nurture the spirit by being silent for a few hours or dance or something that you enjoy doing that you haven't done in awhile. There are many ways, find what works for you.
Mind, Body and Spirit. That is holistic.
