Our Three Bodies In One

"How to Become Right with the Physical Body and How to Make it Beautiful!" - Dr Joshua David Stone

Fantastic article about the beauty within, and taking care of our bodies. Each one of us have three bodies, we have

. A Physical body
. An Emotional body And
. A Spiritual body

All of these bodies need care.

All our bodies are connected and are part of a whole. If we neglect the care of one of them, then the others start to become neglected. So, by taking care of all three, we can become fully balanced and achieve success in anything we do.

When we are fully engaged in taking care of our bodily needs, such as keeping our bodies in good shape, exercising, eating right and living a stress free lifestyle.

Our emotional needs such as keeping good friendships, having a long and happy marriage, living with our loved ones and tolerating, forgiving and understanding others.

Finally our spiritual needs such as chanting gods name, reading Gods books, praying and giving praise to God and helping others that are less fortunate then us. We become most happy.

Our physical body

Our physical body is our outer body, flesh and bones. This is the body we work physically to build and to keep healthy. By keeping this body in shape and in health, we build our self-esteem, our self confidence and our love for ourselves.

When we work hard to have a good physical body, it means that we are truly grateful for our body. By keeping it in shape, in optimal health and appearance we build our love and appreciation for ourselves.

We also build an image that is appreciated by others. When we work hard to create a good image of our outer appearance, others see it and think highly about us.

They see that we are achievers, that we are someone special and because of this more and more people will want to be around us, or with us. They will want to listen to us. This creates self confidence in ourselves, which helps our other bodies as well.

Our emotional body

Our emotional body is our second body. This body is like our subtle body. It is what deals with our emotions. Having a satisfied emotional body is very essential, because without our emotional body in balance, our emotions start to wreck havoc on our physical body.

Our emotions are what drive us to do the things we do to our physical body. Without a balanced emotional state, our emotions would start to tell us things that would not benefit our body, such as "You're not strong enough to exercise everyday why don't you skip it today. Tomorrow you can try again" or "I don't care about your health right now, I'm sad and I need support why don't you eat something, so I can feel better."

Our emotional body loves attention and when we satisfy it with good attention then it becomes pleased and is willing to co-operate with our other bodies.

Our spiritual body

Our spiritual body is our soul. Our soul is our body which is connected with God or the universe. By helping our soul to become more in tune with God or the universe, we become more happy ourselves. The soul controls our love, joy and happiness that we feel every time we help someone, every time we do a good deed or give our love and support. Every time we praise God or give thanks to the universe, our soul becomes happier.

Our spiritual body is the life giving force within ourselves. Without it, we would not be able to move, think, feel, or do anything for that matter. The soul is what gives us life.

How to keep all three healthy

Our physical body

We need to keep our physical body fit, strong, and healthy by doing daily exercises, by eating right and by doing our best to live a stress free lifestyle. If we can achieve these things, our physical body will be in top shape. We will feel full of life, energy, vigor, strength and confidence.

Our emotional body will thank us for our efforts because from having, a well toned and healthy body, we create good remarks and admiration from others. We also have good sex appeal. Our emotional body loves these things, so by keeping our physical body healthy we start to help our emotional body as well.

There are many exercises, that can help to create a great figure, and I have listed a few in the second chapter that will greatly help in creating the figure desire most.

Our emotional body

We need to keep our emotional body healthy by keeping good relationships and fixing broken ones. If we keep hold of old broken relationships and don't try to fix them, either by healing the relationship or by forgiving and then forgetting the relationship then our emotional body still feels hurt, and the hurt can cause other problems.

Another thing about our emotional body is that it keeps thousands upon thousands of situations and thoughts inside itself. If any of these thoughts or situations are not fulfilled or completed then we are renting rent-free space in our brain for those hurtful or unfulfilled things.

If we can complete those things or forgive and forget, we can open our emotional body to better and greater things to come.

One way to help our emotional body is by talking to ourself in a mirror. This may sound funny at first but it is a very good way of helping our emotional body in its health.

We can start out by asking our self "How are you today?" and "It is good to see you again". Then we can start by saying "I would like to complement you today on..."

We then start to list all the things that we have accomplished today. They can be very little things like going for a walk, or chewing our food properly so that our digestion will work better, or that we made a step towards a better relationship with someone, or that we are doing more exercise, or we are completing one of our goals.

Our emotional body loves hearing all these praises and it will thank us afterwords by giving us a happy and satisfied feeling.

After we are finished talking to our emotional body, we can tell our self in the mirror that we love our self. Having a healthy respect for our self is very important.

Saying this to ourself, helps a great deal in balancing our bodies, because many times we may feel that our life is missing love, or friendship, or we may be unsatisfied with our physical body and because of that unsatisfied feeling, our emotional body is affected.

However, when we tell ourself that we care and we do love ourself our emotional body becomes happier and is then more willing to listen to our needs.

Our spiritual body

We can keep our spiritual body happy by giving in charity to others in need, by being kind and humble to others, by praising God or the universe, by setting an example for others to follow.

Anything that we can do that will help others in living better, in feeling better and in learning more about God or the universe makes the soul happier. Our souls are happiest when they are in tune with God or the universe. So, by doing acts of kindness and charity to the less fortunate ones, we can further our progress towards the greater good.

If we can practice on a daily basis, be kind to everyone, be humble to others, and learn to forgive and forget, our souls will develop a great happiness, which will help us to become balanced in all three of our bodies.
