Luke 10:27 (Links to an external site.)
Luke 10:27 identifies the four domains of wellness: emotional, spiritual, physical, and mental. Each of these domains should be supported by individual self-care. The key is to find a healthy balance across the four domains. For example, you might attend church two or three days a week, but if you neglect to exercise, eat nutritious foods, and rest you will lack the energy for doing ministry.
Since the four domains are interrelated and influence each other, a person is healthiest when there is an appropriate balance among them. Being healthy and well balanced emotionally, spiritually, physically, and mentally is integral to one’s lifelong process of personal transformation. This balance is the foundation for the concept of wellness.
For further reflection, consider this:
According to I Corinthians 6:19, your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.
How are you taking care of your body as a good steward?
What is the broader meaning of Jesus’s command to “Love your neighbor as yourself?”
