Obedient Lifestyle

Healthy Minds Promotes Healthy Thinking, Healthy thinking promotes prolonged lives. Most importantly, healthy minds get us closer to God.

When we feed our bodies healthy foods that provide us with positive benefits we start to think clearly, the way God intended us to think. He never wanted us to defile our bodies with unhealthy foods but He knew we were going to do it. It’s all about obedience and trust. Unfortunately we want the things in life that are appetizing to us, whether it’s bad or good. We don’t think of the dangerous effects that it puts upon our bodies. Sure, one piece of sugary candy won’t kill you, but do you really think that will be the only piece you will ever have? Nope! Studies have shown sugar is just as addictive as cocaine, I already did a blog on this, so I invite you to read it. Now as years go by while eating a lot of sugar, (remember, the majority of food we eat today has sugar, read the labels because there are many names for sugar) health problems start to erupt yet we still don’t understand it’s our diet. When we don’t eat healthy we don’t think clearly. So now after visiting the doctor we are prescribed drugs to help whatever issue they diagnosed us with, they didn’t bother asking us what we eat and if they did, of course we are going to say we eat good because the majority of us think we do, and even most doctors think processed foods are ok to eat. So now after a few months of adding pills to our already unhealthy diet, we get more problems like we can’t sleep or depression, and guess what!? We are prescribed more pills! We don’t think or even have knowledge about how pills not only slow down the peristalsis (movement) of the colon it also messes up the microbiome (colon bacteria), Also Known As, our Second Brain, I did a blog on that too. This is why a lot of people these days are constipated. So again, instead of trying to find the root cause of our issues we take more pills like sleeping pills that have also been proven to make us crazy and/or more depressed, antidepressants that again have also been proven to make us crazy, depressed and even suicidal, not to mention messing up our microbiome. So now we are feeling crazy, hearing things with extreme paranoia and high blood pressure, what’s going to be next? You got it! More or a change in the pills! Do you see the pattern here?? It just makes us worse! I know there’s a time and place for medicine, BUT if we can avoid getting on it we can avoid this mess. And if we have to take the meds there are ways to wean yourself off of them which of course starts with changing our diets. Now I’ve had pill lover’s explain why they think the pills don’t work, they say because the doctor prescribed it wrong. So you are telling me a doctor with over 40 years’ experience with a certain issue let’s say bipolar prescribed this person wrong twice? Sure, it could happen but then why after going to another doctor the pills still don’t work? There are many studies showing that there are higher suicide rates of people with depression and/or bipolar disorders that take antidepressants and/or bipolar medications. I really think some of us need to wake up and smell the reality here. Drugs aren’t the solution for everything. I’m sure there are people who think the “quick fix” is more convenient than preparing meals from scratch, and I am sure it is but think of what is does to our body’s later in life. I actually heard others say the reasons they put their kids on prescription pills is because they were too wild, they weren’t hurting anyone or themselves, they were just too wild for the parent because they needed more relaxing time. Of course doctors will say they have bipolar or ADD, and then you have other doctors like Dr. David Perlmutter that would say it’s just kids being kids. I remember how wild I was when I was a kid, I thank God my parents didn’t drug me up, I don’t know where I would be if they did.

So the conclusion to this would be to stay healthy, and if it is really that hard, ask God for help. WE should have God in our lives no matter what. With God we can do anything, let Him be your guide. Read the Bible for instruction, do your own research and you will find the truth. It’s so easy to get caught up in the world with negative thoughts, and giving up, but in reality there is so much more out there. Stay away from the negative people that tell you it’s not possible, there are so many good people out there that can and will lift you up. When we put God first and let him lead the way we will get to the destination that we want to be. Happiness is out there. Pray, and ask God for help. He will help you.

Jesus Said in Matthew 19:26 “With Men this is impossible, but With God All Things Are Possible”

Proverbs 16:24 “Pleasant words are as an Honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.”
