A Ball of Yarn – Accept and Address the Tangles
May 22, 2020Your mind and your body are your most prized possessions. They are equally valuable. Like the two wheels of a bicycle, mind and body need to be in good condition to handle all the ups and downs that come our way. We may look after one and neglect the other. We exercise and eat well to look after our body. Our body is the vehicle which takes us through life. We look after our mind as well. We read, meditate, have meaningful conversations and relationships, invest in music and art, have hobbies, contribute to causes we believe in. After all, the mind is the fuel which keeps the fire of passion of being alive, alive. The problem arises when we have a high class vehicle with low quality fuel or premium fuel in a dilapidated vehicle. The effort of maintenance of one is diminished by the neglect of the other. We need both the wheels of the cycle to be in an equally good condition for the ride to be smooth.
Close your eyes and imagine yourself with a beautiful mind and body and how having that can influence your life.
