Healthier And Happier

You Choose

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 8 months ago 1 min read
Happy and Healthy People

“There is not enough room

in your mind

for both worry and faith.

You must decide which one gets to live there”

Which “one”

will make you happy and healthy?

Which “one”

will strengthen your mind?

Which “one”

will help to keep you in shape physically?

When we keep our minds

full of positive and optimistic thoughts,

there is no room for anything else!

We need to make

the conscious effort

to “think” the right thoughts.

Faith is the complete trust and confidence

in someone or something.

Make that someone “YOU”!

Have faith and confidence

in yourself and in your own abilities.

Remember

you have personally overcome.

Prove to yourself

that ‘there is nothing to worry about’

because you are in control of your own life.

Having faith in yourself

will build up your mental health.

Daily meditation

will keep the mind full and ‘busy’

with constructive thinking.

Letting go of worrying thoughts

will help us to embrace today

and to live in the moment.

It takes time and effort

but when we make the right choice,

we become happier and healthier.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
