Think about how you can begin to like, embrace, and live in your body after feeling betrayed by it. Slowly open your eyes. A major task in being human is to maintain balance between body, mind, and spirit. Living with a chronic illness can make that more difficult. The more we keep our minds filled with positive and loving thoughts, the easier our lives become.
Spirituality can be valuable toward that goal.
Spirituality is not about religion. Our spirituality is about making a connection with our Higher Power, our inner strength, our spirit that we believe in and trust. It helps us tap into and strengthen our inner beliefs. People use many different words and symbols to talk about their inner life and spirituality. One commonly used way these days is to talk about angels as not only messengers of God but as people who come into our lives to remind us of what we need to know.
