Holistic
health consists of physical, mental and spiritual health. Physical health is
anything related to your physical body. It is the result of optimal digestion,
detoxification, and function of your organs and tissues, right down to the
level of individual cells.
When you are in a state of health on a physical
level, you feel dynamic, full of energy and free of any physical symptoms. When
there is an imbalance on this level, physical symptoms and diseases start to
occur.
Emotional
health is defined by an ability to freely express your emotions and have
meaningful social interactions. You have positive emotions, which are
translated into a deep inner level of joy, contentment, confidence and
assurance. You are motivated and feel ready to meet everyday challenges and
express yourself in a creative manner. When there is an imbalance on this level
you may start experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and
other mental/emotional symptoms.
Your
spiritual level refers to the deepest part of you; that part that gives you the
sense of who you are and allows you to find the meaning of your life. When you
experience spiritual health you have a clear vision of the purpose of your life
and, consequently, set up goals and get motivated to achieve them. You also
create your very own system of values and beliefs.
When there is an imbalance
on this level, you may think that life is worthless and feel a profound
separation from yourself and others; you may be judgmental, unforgiving and
often display narcissistic, selfish patterns.
Consider this when considering our health!
