Staying Healthy During Times of Stress
By Laurie Leah Levine, Author of Spiritual Medicine

With the world and government in such a state of uncertainty, it is the time for us to stay focused on good health. One of the ways to do this is by becoming more aware of how we are feeling and by expressing any feelings we may be having and not pushing them down in our bodies. It is so vitally important to stay centered and balanced during times of stress and there are many ways to do this.

Some of the following are practical and easy tools from my book, Spiritual Medicine:

1. Get more oxygen into your body.

Breathe in fully into your stomach and chest. Breathe in peace, relaxation, love, joy and breath out any negativity, fear, worry, anger, doubt, etc.

This type of breathing helps the body to release tension and also aids in our ability to relax and focus within.

2. Stay in the present moment as much as you can.

It is easy to jump into the fear of the future or bad experiences from the past and get caught up in it. This type of thinking does not support our health and wellbeing. It aids in causing us to get sick and out of balance. Be come aware of each time you are not in the moment and keep bringing yourself back to the now.

One of the ways to do this is by being grateful for what you do have in your life and for the people that you love. This is a good step toward maintaining good health.

3. Taking loving care of your body.

Eat healthy food and drink plenty of purified water. It is easy in times of stress and worry to start eating unhealthy and falling into addictive patterns like eating lots of sugar, drinking more alcohol, smoking etc.

This is the most important time to love, nurture and care for your self. One of the ways to check to see if we love ourselves is to ask the question:

Is thinking this thought or taking this action loving myself?

If it is not, start to do something that is and your body will start to feel more vital.

4. Let go of self judgment and criticism.

Start treating yourself with kindness like you treat others you care about. Put your self as a priority. Forgive your self for anything that may have happened in the past that you are still holding onto. You are an emanation of God and therefore are special and unique.

5. Create Peace inside of you.

One of the ways we can help to create peace in the world globally is to start with creating peace within our own lives and within our hearts.

Take the time to make peace with anyone in your life you have been angry at or hold judgment against. This action of peace can free up so much space inside of you and help you to feel better about yourself and increase your health and wellbeing.
