EXERCISE YOUR WAY TO WEALTH
One of my pet phrases is “The Mind is not in the body, the body is in the Mind!”
It is goes hand in hand with what we teach in that EVERYTHING is consciousness!
Several years back I lost about 75 pounds. As I began to learn about the connection between body and mind I discovered the truth of the statement, “it’s not what you’re eating it’s what’s eating you.” Along with that revelation came the discovery of the kind of mindset that is created by an unhealthy body.
There are so many unhealthy traits this produce there is not time to cover them all. I will deal with a few that you might be able to identify with.
Do you know that the workforce looses millions of dollars each year because of sickness and disease? Do you realize how much money you loose when you are sick? Most health problems are self induced. Most of what we suffer is because of our very unhealthy lifestyles. So many of our ailments could be avoided if we would only do the simple task of exercising, eating right, and participating in prayer, meditation or even yoga. Yes you heard me say “simple task.” The truth of the matter is it is NOT hard to exercise at all, we’re just lazy!
I can name you five different exercises you can do from your couch in between commercials while you are watching TV.
But even more serious is what an unhealthy body or physical lifestyle creates in the mind. One becomes depressed more easily because you are in constant judgment of your body. Many times our unhealthy ways causes us to lack so much energy we are not motivated to do anything. It takes energy to run a business. It takes stamina and energy to write books and travel all over the world singing or speaking or doing whatever it is you really desire to do. Yes I am convinced that the worst part of it is what it does to our minds, or I should say what we continue to allow it to do to our minds.
Now I don’t want you to get mad at me but I am going to ask you something. Now, did you hear my first statement? I said the Mind is not in the body but the body is in the Mind. To get a deeper understanding of this I will say it as I normally say it when I am teaching folks who are already know this truth; “Consciousness is NOT in the body, the body is in the consciousness. If that is true (and it is) then that would mean that your body is a creation of your own mind…NOTHING ELSE.
It amazes when I have read in the past about people trying to file suit against fast food establishments for their unhealthy body! If there was something about a Mc Donald’s being on the corner that made people fat then EVERYONE would be! The truth is even with a plethora of these joints everywhere there are still people who are fit and in shape although surrounded by these fat inducing establishments! Yes it always boils down to what is going on in your own mind that is causing you to use food, drugs, or even participate in a lifestyle of overdoing, so much so that you have no time to take care of your body.
Take a mirror test. And see what you have created. I know it’s hard but denial won’t help? Take a mirror test and ask yourself, “what is going on in my mind that I have created this body?” Take that test with the knowledge that t-h-e b-o-d-y- is in, t-h-e- c-o-n-s-c-i-o-u-s-n-e-s-s.
When you begin to make the changes in consciousness it is then that you will begin to make the changes in body, and THEN you will see how you just begin to THINK better! You will see how you will begin to FEEL better. Your vibration will shoot through the roof and YOU WILL START ATTRACTING MORE GOOD INTO YOUR LIFE!
That is how exercise can create wealth in your life; and wealth from many sources; a wealth of peace; a wealth of joy and happiness; a wealth of energy; a wealth of ideas which will produce a wealth of motivation which will produce a wealth of actions which will produce a wealth of money!
