The Frustrations of Weight Loss

By lizfrizzy March 18, 2018 - 5:46pm

You walk into a doctor’s office with a bad cold. While you’re there, the doctor says that he hasn’t done a full physical on you for a few years and commences to poke and prod and weigh and measure. By the time you walk out of the office you’ve got a prescription for a cough suppressant and a heavy heart from the doctor’s lecture on your weight. Has this ever happened to you? Doctors like to tell their patients what’s wrong with them, but never provide an answer as to how to help the problem. After all, it’s not that easy to lose weight, is it?

Description

Who we are and how we Be in the world, has a direct impact on how we handle our health and wellness issues. Any real experience of our health encompasses the trilogy - the physical aspects, how we think about it, and that intangible 'other' that gives us grace and gets us through. This applies to mental and physical health equally. if we can cultivate our spiritual aspect of the triad, it will be there when we most need it, as we face our own aging and illness as well as when assisting others. This group is here to share resources and avenues to connecting the three, most particularly to embracing and articulating our personal appreciation of Spirit. This group does not advocate for any particular brand of spiritual practice or religion. Simply by sharing your stories, pointing us toward books, articles, poems, art, workshops, or other expressions of Spirit and health you will contribute to each individual's personal journey.
