My health has not been the best recently. To be completely honest, due to a host of issues, I had to drag myself through 2011.
I know this is not the abundant life that Jesus died for me to have, so I am seeking him to help me change and to help me take better care of myself. In fact, this is a major part of my 2012 reinvention.
As a result, I am re-reading a book by Stormie Omartian entitled, Greater Health God's Way. In it she writes;
The Seven Steps to Greater Health are:
1. Peaceful Living
2. Pure Food
3. Proper Exercise
4. Plenty of Water
5. Prayer and Fasting
6. Fresh Air and Sunshine
6. Fresh Air and Sunshine
7. Perfect Rest
I am slowly trying to tackle each one of these areas. I have been able to keep up a regular strengthening and cardio routine since January. I have also made my business to get more sleep buy putting the kids to sleep earlier, so I can go to sleep earlier. In terms of prayer and fasting, I have been working to make sure I spend time in prayer and in the word before I do anything else, most days of the week. I am also getting back into partial/juice fasting!
I have a ways to go before I reach my goals, but it feels good to be making progress!
