It's True

Quieten The Mind

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 2 years ago 1 min read
"The best cure for the body is a quiet mind"

We live in a very busy world,

full of many different things and activities.

Watching the news every morning

can turn our heads into a spin,

when we get to work or school/college,

we've basically had it for the day ---

and it's only 9.30am.

Yes,

this is so true isn't it.

We hardly have time to think,

never mind sitting down quietly.

BUT ---

it is a fact

that what we do mentally

does affect us physically.

Even the birds have their quiet time,

when they are not singing

but just sitting in the branches.

Have you ever watched your cat or dog?

Sometimes,

he/she just sits down,

curls up

and is quiet for a little while.

We'd do well to 'copy' that.

To rest the mind

is to rest the body

which is better for our health overall.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
