Your health can always be improved, but there are limitations. The main limitations are always rooted in your past and the potential for biggest change is always a head of you in your future to come.
THE PAST
Your past is represented by the inherited genetics in your family, in your ethnicity as well as humanity at the present time. This gives a foundation but also represent the most fixed and unchangeable parts of your vital economy.
Also human genetics change. Today we have abilities that we have acquired through epigenetic mechanism of adaptation to experiences from the past. A substantial part of the human genom is taken from virus from viral epidemics. Even if less important also mutations places a role. These factors has made us into a type of humans that did not exist even 10-12000 years ago.
Humans born in the future will inherit abilities that we have not gotten yet.
THE PRESENT
The present is also important both for sustaining as well as improving your health. Your activities, work out, walks in nature, diet, sleep routine as well as the environment you breath, eat and live in, plays an important role.
This part represented by the present is mainly sustaining and keeping you fit and healthy.
THE FUTURE
What many people tend to forget is that the biggest potential for change is in your future.
Investing in your dreams, visions or goals of a better lifestyle or state of health and even more important, what inspires you to improve your health can make more substantial changes possible. This will become your new daily practice on day.
Physical things or mental schedules are both fixed and stuck, but emotions and inspiration are the real drivers for change. The desire for health and well-being, the inspiration that lifts you up to transcend your present limitations are the real transformers.
WHERE DO YOU FIND THE FUTURE?
Turning inwards, being mindful, meditating, praying and other forms of spiritual practice very often leaves you with an improved vitality, inspiration, fulfilment and deeper peace.
These is because they realign you with your real path, your mission in life. They reconnect you with your goal. They take your focus away from detours and direct you towards your real future to be.
The same goes for an increased holonity, where you feel part of a bigger whole. It can be relating to others, but even better in a group of people. Your challenges seem smaller, might be shared and you feel connected and supported. This is why group therapy, team work and socializing is so beneficial.
Connection to the vastness of nature; the big woods, the great sea or starry night also reminds you that your problems are so small, you are part of so much more.
The feeling of connecting with human kind or the spiritual world is an important factor of improving your health and stimulating a change for the better.
Reaching a state of making a priority for the benefit of a bigger holon, a bigger group, all humans or all living nature and the earth itself, is what I call an increased holonity.
Making a priority on a bigger whole a bigger holon, rather than yourself, is a sign of spiritual growth beyond your ego.
That is an important healing factor and also you makes the future become closer.
The improving of health and your own evolution or mastering of life is but one and the same process. (Read more here – Your health is your potential to evolve.)
