"The salvation of the soul is a very great thing", says the well-known and beloved song. But how many of us take care of the soul every day?;
Eleni Petroulaki particularly emphasizes the connection of the body with the soul, both through exercise and diet and through the time we dedicate to ourselves and our people.
"The problem is the eternal game between being and appearance, between image and content. We stick to appearance and image, neglecting the essence, i.e. the being and the content". So the exhortation of this article is not to stay on the surface, but to go deeper into the feelings, our needs and thoughts.
A body without a soul does not exist
So simple, but difficult to understand! Our health is a comprehensive and multifactorial concept. It depends on the quality of our diet, from the inclusion of exercise in our lives, from our choices in people and situations but also from the time we spend connecting with ourselves. How much time do you spend with calmness and substance in your psyche;
Taking care of our soul and ourselves is not a luxury, but an obligation. And when you make the decision to "put it on the schedule", do not do it compulsively but with joy because these minutes will prove beneficial (both for you and your relationships).
What does "time for my soul" mean?;
- Awareness of my needs
- Examining my present situation and feelings
- Self improvement, where needed
- Acceptance of my choices
- Acceptance of others around me
- Balance in everyday life
And when you have delved into the above, you will have connected your body with your soul. You will know why you do everything in your life and finally you will be a happy person. As the actress Julia Roberts has said, "There are no good and bad people, but happy and unhappy". And when someone is happy with himself, his choices and his life, he lives freely, uncomplicated, without jealousy or envy, without gossiping or criticizing others and with lots of love without expecting anything in return.
Life is wonderful, when you maintain peace in your soul and beautiful feelings for yourself and those around you. Start this journey from today!
