BOOK QUOTE SATURDAY!
During my
reading of the book All You Ever Wanted
To Know From His Holiness The Dalai Lama On Happiness, Life, Living, and Much
More Conversations with Rajiv Mehrotra there are many statements that are
made that really have me thinking a great deal about health. For instance, the
following statement which has me thinking about the fact that even the words
that I use daily may be making me sick.“Scientific
research has shown that those individuals who often use words such as me, I,
and mine face a greater risk of a heart attack. If one always thinks of oneself,
ones thinking becomes very narrow; even a small problem appears very
significant and unbearable.”
I read this
over a number of times and had to wonder how many times in a day do I use those
words. Am I using them too much? The above quote is a great reminder that I
need to be mindful of my speech daily to attract great heart health.
