Over the last few days, I've been asking myself (and you): What can I do to start 2017 refreshed and grounded? What can I do to foster my relationship with God all year?

As we have started 2017, our prayer prompts have asked about us to recognize what we need in my spiritual life to keep my soul whole and healthy.

Sometimes, though, we need to start with our bodies to be able to grow spiritually! As Catholics, we honor the Incarnation by recognizing the unity of body and soul. Today, do something for your physical body in addition to your spiritual self.

What can you make time for in your day?

• Eat food that nourishes your body
• Move in a way that feels invigorating — walk, stretch, swim, or whatever feels right
• Rest or nap to recharge
• Spend time outdoors

Comment below with your thoughts:

How does your relationship with your body impact your relationship with your soul? How can you view every facet of yourself in harmony?

or, simply answer:
