Try as I might, I cannot pry my emotions, spirit, mind, and heart apart. I want to address each separately, and truthfully, ignore some altogether, but all the components that make up ME affect each other, whether I like it or not.
When I’ve had a tough week emotionally, I’m going to need a nap on Sunday.
When I’ve been ignoring that I even have a spirit, I’m going to find it hard to resist eating all the food I don’t actually enjoy.
This is always true, but exacerbated over the holidays with added festivities, expectations, and food everywhere.
I want to live healthy, whole, and free over this season.
Not living perfectly.
Not perpetually resisting the sweets I pass by every day, only to run out of willpower and dive in, head first.
But living with care for who I am physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Even during what tends to be a busier season.
Healthy, whole, and free. I want it for me, and I want it for as many people as possible.
