No one can be well without being so in totality. No part of the self rules over any other part.
Listen to all of yourself, with all of your self. Just as life is a journey of balance, the individual pursuit of fulfullment and joy must be equal parts of mind, heart and spirit.
If imbalance occurs, it is felt. As with the certain knowlege of a good deed, or an appropriate action, our inner self knows its own equilibrium.
