You may feel intellectually absorbed today and consequently unable to concentrate on what falls outside the realm of your objects of interest. A strong need to learn more about your beliefs or to refine your spiritual values can inspire you to immerse yourself in the teachings of wise individuals. As compelling as your studies are, try not to forget about the needs of your body. Your learning experiences will likely be more well-rounded if you think of yourself as an integrated being composed of disparate elements. You may find that by thinking of yourself in this way today, you can relate what you learn about your spiritual path to your understanding of your physical nature.
Our knowledge of the self is most profound when we develop a thorough understanding of what can be seen and what cannot be seen. Bodily wellness is easy to gauge, and many people spend an inordinate amount of time focused on the well-being of the physical self. Yet our very real spiritual selves are indelibly intertwined with our bodies, and to ignore one is to endanger the other. Consciously dividing our attention between both aspects of the self allows us to monitor the growth and health of both so that we never accidentally neglect either. Through little more than balanced self-awareness, we ensure that we are able to maintain total self-wellness. If you consider the needs of the soul, the mind, and the body today, your inner understanding will be that much more complete.
