Did you know that our body image is made up of three bodies? They are the Physical body, the subtle or emotional body and the spiritual body. Our three bodies work together to create harmony and balance within us.

To start on the process of losing weight fast, we need to start off with how to take care of these three bodies. So we have mind body spirit health. At first, it might seem like a lot of work, but in truth, it is very simple. All our bodies are connected and are part of a whole. If we neglect the care of one of them, then the others start to become neglected.

“Mind body spirit health” instead of “body mind spirit health” because we need to have the desire or thought in our mind before we can do anything for our physical body. Having an ideal body image in your mind helps greatly towards your weight loss goal and is one of the most important parts to start losing weight fast. Do this first if you can to start the step-by-step program.

Our emotional body needs are keeping good friendships, having a long and happy marriage, living with our loved ones and tolerating, forgiving and understanding others. Our physical body needs are, keeping in good shape, exercising, eating right and living a stress free lifestyle. Finally our spiritual body needs are chanting God’s name, reading God’s books, praying and giving praise to God and helping others that are less fortunate than ourselves. When we are fully engaged in taking care of all our bodily needs then our body image becomes whole and we create a mind body spirit health within us.

Our emotional body is our second body. This body is like our subtle body or dream body. It is what deals with our emotions. Having a satisfied emotional body is very essential, because without our emotional body in balance, our emotions start to wreck havoc on our physical body, which starts to destroy the mind body spirit health we want to achieve.

Our emotions are what drive us to do the things we do to our physical body. Without a balanced emotional state, our emotions may start to tell us things that may not benefit our body, such as

“You’re not strong enough to exercise everyday why don’t you skip it today. Tomorrow you can try again” or

“I don’t care about my health right now, I’m sad and I need support. Why don’t I eat something, so I can feel better.”

Our emotional body loves attention and when we satisfy it with good attention then it becomes pleased and is willing to co-operate with our other bodies. Thinking good thoughts about our body image also helps greatly, but if we have negative images in our mind then we do more damage to our self image and our emotional body is not happy.

If we are depressed whenever we look at ourselves in the mirror this will not help us at all towards achieving our weight loss goal. Fortunately there are many anti depression foods which are very beneficial to our health that can help lift that fog of depression in our lives.

Our physical body is our outer body: flesh, blood and bones. This is the body we work physically to build and to keep healthy. By keeping this body in shape and in good health, we build our self-esteem, our self-confidence and our love for ourselves. When we work hard to have a good physical body, it means that we are truly grateful for our body. By keeping it in shape, in optimal health and appearance we build our love and appreciation for ourselves.

We also build a body that is appreciated by others. When we work hard to create a beautiful body, others see it and think highly of us. They see that we are achievers, that we are someone special and because of this more and more people will want to be around us, or with us. They will want to listen to us and this creates self-confidence in ourselves, which helps our other bodies as well in the creation of our mind body spirit health.

If you are someone who has health problems associated with obesity, working to lose weight fast might take a little longer than normal, but with determination you will succeed.

Our spiritual body is our soul, our third body. Our soul is our body which is connected with God or the universe. By helping our soul to become more in tune with God or the universe, we become more happy ourselves.

The soul controls our love, joy and happiness that we feel every time we help someone, every time we do a good deed or give our love and support. Every time we praise God or give thanks to the universe, our soul becomes happier.

Our spiritual body is the life giving force within ourselves. Without it, we would not be able to move, think, feel, or do anything for that matter. The soul is what gives us life.

When we are helping all our three bodies get what they want then we create our mind body spirit health which in turn helps us to lose weight fast and keep it off.
