motivational quote for healthy living — Motivational Quotes for healthy living

So, what are you wanting to work towards this year? There are three things on which you can focus on:

Physical health: Having a healthy body is important in order to enjoy all life has to offer us. To achieve this you might need to work on eating a healthy diet (choosing to stay away from junk food), moving your body more, or maybe you want to start getting rid of toxins and chemicals in your home.
Mental health: Getting rid of negative mental distractions and having a healthy attitude and calm mind.
Spiritual wellness. If you are a person of faith, you will agree with me that cultivating a strong relationship with our creator and savior is an important part of healthy living. Our Spirit, mind, and body listen to each other, and all three need to be thought of and not neglected.

“There’s a spiritual connection to good health; It’s not just physical.” -Nancy Evans
