Nurturing a relationship with God, Goddess, the Universe, Buddha (or whatever you call your higher power), and moving that relationship up the scale of importance is foremost in helping your spiritual health thrive. And, as your spiritual health thrives so will your mental and physical health. The beauty of this spiral effect is that you see exponential benefits in all areas of your life.

The Universe supports you and is always on your side! There is a stream of endless evidence that demonstrates this idea if you allow yourself to see it each and everyday. As you make this relationship a focal point of your life, you will come to know that you are created in the likeness of your supreme being, and you are its child.

You were enough yesterday, you are enough today, and you will be enough tomorrow.

When you begin to see the beauty of life everywhere, in everything, and in everyone, your heart will believe there is no mistake, no favoritism, no coincidence, and no one any better or worse than you.

An attitude of gratitude is the quickest, surest way to a life of effortless ease. If we show appreciation for everything, every situation, and every person in our lives we will be on the path of pure joy. Living with a heart full of thanksgiving is by far the richest gift we can give to ourselves.
Keep a Gratitude Journal for the next 30 days. Each day write at least five things you are grateful for along with why you are grateful for them. Spend 15 minutes a day writing and feeling appreciation and gratitude for as many things as you can think of in your life. Then for the next 30 days see everything as an opportunity to show thanksgiving. Rest assured, the way you see life will change, you will be convinced that someone who loves you very much is watching over you, and your heart will be filled with a thankfulness that will pervade your mental and physical health.
