Good Health Habits
Good Health Habits
Objective
Each young woman will understand the importance of developing good health habits.
Ask the following questions:
1. Are you eating healthy foods such as whole grains, fruits and vegetables, milk products, meat, fish, poultry, and eggs?
2. Do you drink six to eight glasses of liquid a day?
3. Do you avoid taking any over-the-counter medicines to excess?
4. Do you get enough rest to rejuvenate your body?
5. Do you get enough physical exercise?
6. How could you improve your physical health?
The Lord has provided specific guidelines for the care of our physical bodies. Good health and vitality depend to a great extent on our attitude about these guidelines and the health habits begun early in life. We will receive blessings when we comply with these laws.
Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, 20 for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (NLT)
Read 1 Corinthians 3:16–17. Bear your testimony about the great value of our bodies and the importance of keeping them as healthy as possible.
1 Corinthians 6:16-17
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
When you observe the Word of Wisdom … and other good health practices, you remain free and have control over your life. You gain the blessings of an undefiled body, an alert mind, and the ability to receive help and support from your Heavenly Father through the Holy Ghost”
Scriptures
Spend your time and energy in training yourself for spiritual fitness. Physical exercise has some value, but spiritual exercise is much more important for it promises a reward in both this life and the next. This is true and everyone should accept it.” 1 Timothy 4:7-9 (NLT)
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
